Has anyone considered creating a magic system that uses the various Divine Rank abilities in place of spells? I haven't done a lot of work with the idea, but it seemed like a pretty cool concept, so I thought I'd ask if it'd been tried. My basic idea is that casters would have access to the various innate abilities of a Divine Rank equal to their caster level as spell-like abilities. The powers would have to be rewritten to handle duration, and perhaps tweak a few things here and there, but it seems very plausible. Most of the crazy powers of divinity (like automatically rolling 20s on things) are reserved for high-rank gods anyways, so mostly it would just grant general benefits like gaining Charisma as a deflection to AC, immunities, save bonuses, etc. It could also be layered with a way for casters to pick Salient Abilities in some way, although I'm not sure exactly how. As I said, I haven't looked over it much yet. Thoughts?
