The first thing to do is define the spell, what it does, what arts it uses, and parameters:range, duration, and target. That will define the level of the spell.
After defining a spell, the Maga needs to be able to learn it, that means that the lab total for the Technique/Form of the spell needs to be higher to the level of the spell.
