Estild and Oscuro said that since this is a minor list, quite a few of the spells could be expected to be found on [[scroll]]s, though no specific details of which spells.

Rewriting premium homes. New features! Even ones we've wanted.

Multi room homes.

Indoor/outdoor homes.

In house storage. Like a [[locker]], but not as big. "A few items."

Not as restricted by class of neighborhood. Extra rooms are exponentially more expensive.

Blueprint building plans. You buy a blueprint instead of buying walls and poof, walls.

Design facility to make the layout of your home.

Everyone can design blueprints, not just premium users.

Property taxes. Prepaying for a short duration.

If you own a home, you'll have exactly the same home in the new system. Done automatically.

Monks will be the most magical of the Squares and will have access to the [[Minor Spiritual]] and Minor Mental circles. [[Savant]]s will, obviously, also have access to the Minor Mental circle.

Mining and Smelting, single skill.

Can make ingots of metal for forging and hopefully other crafts in the future.

Mines are excavated. You can make your own and dig directionally.

Players can search ores, and intuit ores based on mining skills. Bonus for [[Dwarf|dwarves]].

Teamwork for deeper excavation. Shoring up mines.

Digging too deep has hazards, like critters.

Skill helps chance of finding ore, gems, shoring up mines.

Even rare ores are a possibility.

Good smelters can improve ore quality through normal or mechanical means. Increased skill is a greater quantity of ore, more efficiency.

Can smelt mundane and magical metals.

Exotic metals require even more exotic techniques.

CAN MELT existing items, but at a reduction of overall material. Skill determines how inefficient it is. Some possible restrictions on certain metals (like coraesine, black ora)
