So I'm in the midst of formulating a new DnD like role playing game, based on magic schools and a unique combat system.
Combat would work different in that only magic exists, no weapons or swords, and both mages cast spells at the same time, they meet halfway, one spell overpowers the other then hits the other mage. The game will have LOTS of lore regarding everything in the universe, and very interesting areas which are limitless.
Here is a preview of how damage and health is represented;
"Lorewise, Health in the Arcane Dream is nonexistent. Characters cannot grow ill by natural causes, however, they can be Cursed which can oftentimes mimic the effects of illness as we know them outside of the Arcane Dream. There is no pain in the Arcane Dream, and because of this, health is represented by how connected your body and spirit are. Health Points are represented by CP or Connective Points."
Did I mention combat will be awesome?
"When two mages enter combat, they lock eyes and are completely and only focused on each other. Their two spirits temporarily link in an unknown way. They cannot do anything but fight to the death or incapacitation."

My question is, who would be interested in playing a game like this? I can answer any questions about it.
