Most of magic works off of "Talents", ie. skill. Passions can provide a bounus to cast through skill augmentation. Certain Traits are needed for certain effects in some of the spell possibilities.

Without passions, I would base bonuses on "Religious Bonus", a value of 16 (80%) or higher in each of the 5 traits that the religion values.

Ooohh.

Hand...reaching...for book.

You know, if we didn't just swipe the Pendragon method, but used if for inspiration, we could treat the "Life Porce" stuff as a sort of multiplier/controller for POW (life force in BRP). Could be an interesting base for a new magic system.

For instance using the sum of the "Religious Traits". So 5 traits @ 80% would be 400% or 4 times the effect for POW.
