Hi all,
Since we are going back to the rules that your memory IQ (mIQ) is strictly limited we need again rules for forgetting spells and talents.

I would like to suggest that talents and spells can be forgotten instantly, at any time, for no cost.

Let us look at my duel class character: a Thief who is ALSO a pirate. In order to get Guns I need to forget Running. Rather than calling attention to the fact that managing memory slots is totally weird, just make it fast and easy, and get it over with. I get enough experience (XP), to buy Guns. I quietly erase Running and I'm done.

The only penalty is built in, the XP that I spent to buy Running is lost.

Thoughts?

Warm regards, Rick.
