Dark Snathi

I'm all for something with a little less stark randomness in battle.

I think the one thing the OP left out was choosing your magic books. If you look at the bookshelf between the pile of coins and the magic wand you can see that wiizard knew one book of nature magic, one of sorcery/air, one of chaos/fire and 4 books of life magic. Clearly Freya 2.0 here spent most of her 13(?) points on all those talents listed. You could have up to 13(?) books in one type of magic

Bell distribution maybe?
