===== Already Known Spells ===== As a discretionary exception to the general rule of [[goldensword:magic:magic#learning spells]], the GM may deem that for a particular campaign, each starting character may already know a few spells. The idea is that the spells were learned during the character's back story. This should be facilitated using the regular [[goldensword:magic:grimoire]] These spells will be relatively low powered and must be chosen in order taking into account regular spell prerequisites. The GM will define a maximum XP amount to spend retroactively, according to usual spell learning rules. This XP amount may or may not be contingent upon the character's Magery attribute.
