Glyphs and Symbols

[Kitsunestume]

Hello all,

I was wondering about the feasibility of having multiple uses to Glyph of Warding, and the potential implementation of Greater Glyph of Warding and the Symbol family of spells.
I am aware of the current hold regarding updates not directly applicable to the Second Sundering, and the pile-up of other more pertinent modifications, but heck: Kit casts Suggestion!

As it is, there is only one spell that creates a glyph on the ground, and that would be Glyph of Warding, Blast Glyph Variant. As that is only half the spell, the other half being the storage of a third level or lower spell, perhaps it could be changed to an effect similar to that of Shadow Conjuration, with a menu upon casting, allowing you to use either the Blast Glyph, or a number of Spell Glyphs. Likewise, Greater Glyph of Warding could be a more powerful version with higher levels of spells available. Potential spells within the Glyph could include Dispel Magic, Zone of Revelation(for Greater), Hold Person, Cure X Wounds (If you feel imaginative), etc. The Glyphs have a lot of potential that get smote by being reduced to being a glowing singing trap. (Not that it should glow or sing: 'When the spell is completed, the glyph and tracery become nearly invisible.') The Symbol family could be implemented in a similar manner: A higher level Glyph that activates it's appropriate Power-word or spell when activated.

Thanks for reading. Please leave comments and thoughts below.
Also, if anyone knows tutorials or other ways I could look into coding them myself, please let me know, either here or via PM.

Cheers,
Kit
