ECAST allows the user to add flavour to his spells via a personal
emote. After processing the additional argument, the spell is cast
as normal. Spectators will see a change in the way the spell is
incanted.

ecast <custom string> <spell name>
ecast <custom string> <spell name> <target>

For example:
ecast 'as he throws dust into the air' sanctuary
Produces:
Knight utters 'sanctuary', as he throws dust into the air.
Knight is surrounded by a white aura.

No.

That's what normal emotes are for.

alias Rogue Emote smiles seductively, and after removing her right glove, lays her bare hand against her opponent's cheek.; c 'energy drain'

Hahahaha.
I just pictured a paladin carrying around pixie dust in order to cast sanctuary, and then throwing it into the air in order to cast it, while speaking the spell words under his breath.

I agree with Goldlantern, though. That's what normal emotes are for.

I think its a good idea, its not like a change in the spell itself, it would just add a lot of differences in players...it would be pretty cool and could help some characters RP (Jeruvere's Angel RP?)

I do so love it when GL actually voices his opinion. :)
