Fantastic. This is what I was thinking. So given that a thesis is 12 lbs., is there any practical limit to the number of spells that would fit in one?

Probably, but that's up to the GM. Personally, I think 10-12 spells is a reasonable upper limit. Alternatively, you could do something more complex with the weight, like, "A thesis weighs 12 lbs. up to eight points; past that, weight is (4 + points) lbs."

Awesome. Thanks so much! This is very helpful.
