At most, I think, I would give some path attuned/repelled to classes,
and make the bonuses/penalties bigger.  Five levels really isn't much,
nor is 20% on the sp.

I had envisioned clerics only having the power to cast offensive spells
vs. evil monsters:  demons and undead.  Their other offensive spells would
be roughly twice as expensive as using a mage spell, and no cone or
ball spells applicable to anything but demons/undead. 

>I think all classes should have spells.

With a 4-skill area system all would.  :)  They could be made to
have varying aptitude, however.

All classes had both:  path_attuned, path_repelled.
