Default Re: [MH] Using RPM for lower-powered genres

Ritual Mastery doesn't provide quite the same oomph for the cost, but it also lacks all of the grimoire's drawbacks (extra casting time, must lug a heavy book around, obvious casting).

You could do worse than to print the RPM chapter and highlight everything that gives you a bonus. You might be surprised at how quickly they all add up! :)
Do you think it would be too unbalanced to use the skill bonuses for Sympathy, Names, and Contagion in the RPM system? I really like the flavor of them, but I'm not sure that allowing up to a +11 skill bonus would be a really good idea. Sacrificing for energy seems perfect for MH and RPM in general, too, (though I don't think that should be a bonus to skill).

Finally, how would RPM interact with different mana levels? Is this going to be covered in MH2?
