In “Spells” replace “If a spell has a cost, the cost is deducted from a Wizard’s stars when they cast the spell, unless they have fewer stars than the cost, in which case the spell fails and has no effect.” with

If a spell has a cost, the cost is deducted from a Wizard’s stars when they cast the spell, unless they have fewer stars than the cost, in which case they are considered to have cast Fizzle instead. Adjustments may be made to the cost of a spell, such as through a spell specifying a variable cost depending on the input, or Gewgaw or Special Styles. These adjustments effect the cost that a Wizard pays during this step, but do not effect the cost of the spell as listed in its definition. If a spell has no cost, its cost is considered to be 0 but may be still be adjusted. The cost of casting Fizzle is always 0 and may not be adjusted.

In the Benefit of “Forked” replace “you may add 1 Star to the cost of the Spell” with “you may add 1 Star to your cost of casting the Spell this duel”

Remove “A Wizard’s Personality Trait is Dominant if it exceeds all their other Personality Traits.” from “Personality Traits” (if it exists)

Add the following to “Personality Traits”

A Wizard Imbalance is equal to their highest personality trait minus their second highest personality trait. Whenever a Wizard casts a spell, if the spell has a trait which is that Wizard’s highest personality trait, the cost for that Wizard to cast the spell for the current duel is increased by their Imbalance.

Remove “, minus one (to a minimum of zero) if any of the Spell’s Traits is their dominant Personality Trait” from the ruleset (if it exists)

If the sentence “A Wizard’s Personality Trait is Extreme if it is at least three higher than all of their other Personality Traits.” appears in “Personality Traits” replace it with

“A Wizard’s Personality Trait is Extreme if it is at least five higher than all of their other Personality Traits.”
