Mafe F instead of F/2 a possible modifier during spell creation (ala 3rd Ed
Grimoire...) and use it in the spells for 2nd ed. Toss in variable staging for
drain, and T# modifiers for drain, and you've now got a lot of options for
spell drain codes, which is nice, imo. :) Save F base drain for the big
nasties (Attribute increase spells, for instance).
