Strictly Variants

[mules]

I just tried a new (to me) variant last night with two friends. We each played a different elemental sorceress. We also allowed each character to access warmth, any cold armour and teleport. We didn't play for long but we had a lot of fun doing it.
We added the rule that you would automatically recieve your colour of gem. So I was the ice sorc and I received all saphires.
When we reach act 2 we further plan to each hire a different merc.
I can hardly contain myself :D
