Another that seemed very powerful for the cheap cost was Quarrels. We toned
that down a bit.

Our change to Invisibility was the idea of a "personal space".  As long as
you did not penetrate this personal space by shooting spells, arrows, or
attaching, the invisibility "bubble" remained.  Spells that affected only
you and not the world around you (like heal, earth strength, etc) were ok.
