Is this going to be a pk-oriented MUD? If magic is going to be this weak, there's going to have to be something to prevent melee classes from completely dominating... i.e. if mages are weak, warriors have to be too. If this isn't going to be a pk-oriented game, then balancing one class against another isn't nearly as important, and you could probably make it work.
Having spells that require multiple mages to cast is a neat idea, but for a startup MUD, you're not likely to have enough players on at one time total - let alone just mage players - to let them use any of it. That might be something you should put on the back burner and develop some day down the road when the playerbase could support it.
