A spellcasting buff system for Wizards, in which learning a new spell grants you a point on a metamagic skill tree. Most options available on this tree provide incremental buffs to spells you cast with each point invested, with a maximum of 5 points. There are also capstone buffs that are binary.

The exact shape of the tree is not determined, but a list of potential incremental buffs is:

• More damage.
• More explosions.
• Increased ray or beam range.
• Reduced Pw cost of casting.
• Bonus movement points when you cast any spell.
• Temporary bonus to AC when you cast any spell.
• Temporary to-hit or weapon damage bonus when you cast any spell.
• Suffocating magic; shut down dissimilar magic to the spell that you just cast for a few turns.

Possible capstone buffs include:

• You can smite-target spells without needing to see the space.
• Elemental casting that substitutes the damage types of certain ray and explosion spells.
