	~~== Playtest Priorities ==~~
	I'm very interested in seeing how warriors/semis feel compared to mages, how the core blocking mechanic feels, and how all of the various numbers stack up against each other. Some things that I thought were giga strong/weak when designing will certainly be the opposite. The good news is that it's very easy to refine numbers, tweak things, and change rules. Much easier than in {{LARP}}. I'm open to lots of changes.

	That being said, please don't give feedback on the Elder Sorcery creation system. (Scaling with rotators, number of "slots", and whatnot is fair game. It's the mechanics of making a spell that I don't want to hear about.) I 've received ''so'' many suggestions for people's pet spell creation procedures and that's an entirely different kettle of worms that's fundamentally outside of the actual rules of the game. What I have written here at the moment isn't something that I'm definitive about or confident in. It's literally just random words on a page to put ''something'' out there so that I could get the core game done. It's not anything more than that. Basically just treat ES creation as more-or-less unwritten.
