Still, an IQ 12 individual with Magery 0 who wanted to make a staff of Ignite Fire (Wood) would need to spend a minimum of 16 CP on Enchant (Fire) and 12 CP on Ignite (Wood). It would actually be cheaper for the character to purchase Magery 1+ (Enchantment and Fire Colleges, -30%), as it would cost 7 CP per level and reduce the spell cost by 8 CP per level (as well as benefit other spells within this Colleges). Of course, they might learn the unspecialized versions of the spells then.

One possibility related to specialty enchantments would be to halve the enchantment cost and to double the Enchantment speed for specialty enchantments. For example, a staff of Ignite Fire (Wood) would only cost 50 energy and, if enhanced through Slow and Sure Enchantment, would take only twenty-five days to make. Of course, anyone with the full version of a spell could make enchantments related to a specialty, so any professional enchanter could create a lot of specialized magical items for cheap.
