  We are trying to do a bit of this, balancing long-duration sorcery against
Enchantments and Divine Magic, and short duration sorcery against
spirit magic.

  Agree. Do Enchantments seem about right to you?

  The proposed 1 MP = 1d3 (or 1d6??) damage is, in my opinion, not necessarily
a good 'universal' measure. In many cases this is about right, but
just as a child can kill someone with a hatpin if she knows where to stick
it, the amount of mana doesn't necessarily determine a complex quantity
like 'damage'.
