3.5 Spellcasting/Psionics Variant

[Corporate M]

The way I see it, spellcasters are supposed to feel entitled to their power, not feel like they are gradually going insane.

Well, its less about impending doom and more like "be careful" and "don't abuse your power". Be it arcane study, tapping into your subconscience/training, or turning to your deity. It screams "magic is not a toy".

There's a reason king's train guards and not warmages... lol! I believe it'll only bring down the casters by 1 or 2 tier levels. Not sure if it would hurt semi-casters more or not. They're already pretty weak. (Like the paladin/bard) And in some ways, it doesn't cause they get just as much sanity as say, a wizard. And don't need to rely on spells quite as much as a wizard... Paladins especially would notice the buff as their divine grace increases saves across the board, insuring their san checks are a little less dangerous.
