You sigh irritably. “It appears you'll have to excuse us, Master. My other companions have finished their task.” You push yourself up into a proper sitting position, rather than the slouched over posture you'd unconsciously adopted. {We'll be there momentarily. There is a bench shaded by a palm tree near the gate, wait for us there.} Darzi's response is immediate. {Hurry up, Chrys has started talking to your cloak and the last thing we need is another lunatic in this little group of ours.} You glare at nothing in particular, staring off into the middle distance. Chrys is talking to Ricky? What could they be talking about?

Your Master interrupts your thoughts by snapping his fingers. “Quit starring into space like some slack-jawed idiot, boy. Now come on, get up and get going so Rasim here can start making my dinner. The boy's cooking is atrocious, keep needing him to toss it out and do it over. Oh he'll get it eventually, I'm sure. You weren't much better at fi-” You slowly tune your Master's voice out, slipping into an almost meditative calm as you stare uncomprehendingly at the ancient Vatis. He gets into these loops where he seems to talk seemingly without end, yet manages to say nothing. In a way it's impressive.

You're snapped out of your trance by a hand on your shoulder. Skull Kid is shaking you gently. You wave him off, pushing yourself to your feet and stretching out. You roll your shoulders, arch your back, and crack your neck. Your Master has stopped talking thankfully, and has pushed himself up to his feet using his cane. “I'll show you three to the door, least an old man can do for his guest.”

Mortia looks mildly concerned, and Skull Kid is of course unreadable. Perhaps if you did not know your master, you would mimic Mortia's sentiments. He hobbles busily along next to you on your way to the stairs, his young apprentice taking long strides to try and keep up. When you reach the stairs a platform of ice manifest on one side and your master steps onto it, the bottom melting and solidifying strategically so that it glides smoothly down the winding staircase.

Depends on when you left, and how much you enjoy scaring poor magically inept bar patrons, taking hostages, setting bars on fire, being a paranoid shadowrunner, and general tom foolery

“Master, before I go I seek your advice on several topics.” Your Master rolls his hand, a gesture indicating you should get on with it already. “I have been making steady progress towards becoming a Grandmaster of the water element, I feel, but you always said that becoming a Grandmaster wasn't like advancing through the other levels. What did you mean by that?” He sighs, stepping off of the moving platform he'd created and onto the flagstone floor of his bathhouse. “Do you know why I only ever reached Grandmaster in Water and Nature?” You shake your head, slowly. “It's because attaining that level of power and mastery of an element changes who you are on a very basic level. I couldn't truly perfect my abilities with another element even if I wanted to. It's simply too taxing on the body, and invites insanity.”

In an uncharacteristically somber tone your Master continues. “I've known far too many good Vatis in my time who overreached and had to be put down as a result. You, you have more raw potential than I ever did. I wouldn't be surprised if you perfected three, or even four elements in your lifetime. That being said, you musn't attempt too much too quickly. Do not take advantage of short cuts or artifacts that advance your understanding, for you won't truly understand how or why you wield the power you do. They will limit your growth in the long run. Remember, we live for centuries Mikhael. You have plenty of time to advance your understanding of the world and its mysteries.”

>>>Reaching Grandmaster rank in Water.
>>>Spice, and whether or not you should use it.
>>>Recent events, your old colleagues, and your family.

man these would have been best. We should be leaving so they might not even want to meet him. And if they do it's only more risk.

He clears his throat. “Now, with the lecture on patience out of the way. You'll soon hit a wall in your advancement. You won't be able to truly grasp that last insight you need to perfect water magic, though you may glimpse hints of it. Many Vatis will isolate themselves from society in a place important to their element. Personally, I spent a year at sea. Sailing from one port to the next and plying my skills as both a pirate and a mercenary. Other Water Vatis I knew swore themselves to Pani, and perfected their craft through prayer and meditation. You must find your own way, in the end.”

That wasn't exactly the answer you were hoping for, but it's something to think about. “And, another thing. What do you think of the Spice? It offers untold power, but I worry about addiction and madness.” Your master shakes his head slowly. “Avoid it, at all cost. There is a reason the process used to refine the spice was forgotten. It corrupted the hearts and minds of our people, turned them into little more than violent weapons to be unleashed upon the enemy. While a valuable last resort, I would caution against its use unless absolutely necessary. Just one use has already scattered your eyes with the harsh blue of an addict.”

You frown. On some level it was the answer you'd expected, but some part of you craves that feeling of god-like power. The ability to crush anyone and everyone you saw, reducing them to little more than ash or a pin cushion as you pleased. You banish those thoughts from your mind and move on to slightly more lighthearted conversation. “What has happened since my Banishment? It has been nearly a month now, surely there is some news you have for me.”

(2/4)

A twinkle comes to your Master's eyes. “Ahhh, you'll be glad to hear that the Shahzada''s gardens have been burnt to the ground. The Shah himself ordered them reduced to ash, a waste of resources. It was quite the scandal, the Shah publicly admonishing his son when he'd banished you not even a week earlier for doing the same.” While you're pleased to hear that little shit Kadir's garden was burned to the ground, a deep seated, boiling anger rises from within you like thick, acidic bile in your throat. How could the Shah cast you off to die so callously, and then a few days later do exactly what you'd requested?

Your master moves on. “Rajani Demir, old Boulos' apprentice? She attained her Master's robes recently. She's really come into her own since leaving the home of her Master. One to watch out for. Ismail Uzun, that little bastard you used to cause so much trouble with, caused a scandal amongst the community recently when he adopted his bastard child into his household. Illegal, of course. Highly, highly illegal. It could've gotten him castrated. The Shah didn't seem to care though, and no action was taken. Several others have followed in his wake. Eser Demirci has vanished recently. Wandered out of town one day claiming he was voyaging into the Pa'vala in search of his ancestral home. Took all seven of his apprentices with him. Poor bastards, they'll drop like flies out there.”

(3/4 or 5)

Your Master strokes his goatee absentmindedly. “That little brother of yours recently secured an important trade agreement with the Aleamondians. The Shah is talking about giving him a position as the Ambassador to those backwards fanatics. I don't envy the man. Your father still hasn't found someone to betroth your younger sister to, apparently after your the Abdul-Hakim name was tarnished and some think of your family as having the Traitor's Blood. That's about all I've heard. I'll pass on that you're alive to your mother and father, and tell them you're doing well in the great wide world. It will put their minds at ease.”

You're standing at the door, but you don't want to leave. This is one of the few times you've felt truly relaxed in weeks and you're loathe to step out and voyage once more into the unknown. You reach out to Darzi, Fulvia, Chrys, and Profectus via the brooches. {Would any of you like to meet my Master? I'm sure if I asked he would be happy to have everyone over for a meal.} Your mind is assaulted by four voices at once, you wince as a headache splits your skull. {One at a time, one at a time!}

Darzi speaks first. {Is that where you've been this whole time, Mik? I thought we agreed that you would wait outside the gate! Do you know what would've happened if you were caught? They would've had every guard in the city hunting for your head! We will absolutely not be staying in El-Amin any longer than we must!} Chrys speaks next, thankfully calmer than Darzi. {While I would enjoy meeting your Master and hearing his wisdom, I must agree with Darzi. You may introduce us at some later date.}
(4/5)

Fulvia's is the next voice to enter your mind. {I would caution against staying in the city. While shopping, Darzi was recognized by a group of guards and we were forced to make a quick exit.} Well, that at least explains Darzi's need to leave quickly. Some uncomfortable questions would be asked if she was found wandering around the city with a bunch of adventurers in her guard uniform. Profectus doesn't seem to care either way, and says as much. {I'm happy with anything, to be frank.}

>>34187575
What are we able to give him? I thought that Ricky was with Chrys.

>>34187575
And chicken for the chicken eater, what are the odds Ricky asked Chrys for chicken and they've been having a discussion about it?

>>34187535
do this, on the way we can give him "the talk", too (as ex-apprentice)

>>34187575
The pipeweed or wine would be good to give him.

>>34187575
>Pipe
>Large bag of Pipeweed

>>34187610
It'll end up like >>34187535 suggested. The Apprentice will come with you and fetch it back to his Master afterwards.

As for what you can give him, anything you'd like. You've got quite a few knick knacks in your cloak.

>>34187647
The Incense and Weed might be a good gift

>>34187647
Whats in the pipe weed?

>1x Clavichord
>x Brass Horn
Wait, we have instruments besides the oud?

>>34187647
Could we heal the scar on our cheek off, with the help of darzi?
Since we are gonna do the same to her with her body.

>>34187709
Yup, you sure do.

>>34187697
Tobacco, mostly. You're not entirely certain what else but you recall it's a fairly good blend.

>>34187575
Give him a gift in the form of music and play the oud for him.

What would be Miks estimate of his masters vys pool?
>Massive, maybe up to several hundred vys. He uses vys often for almost everything and never seems to tire out. You've seen him walk through the poorest part of the city healing wounds and curing illnesses for hours on end without seeming the slightest bit drained.
Our master seems like a pretty chill guy.
>>34187744
Do we know of anything a grandmaster can't heal?

>>34187720
if I recall correctly that's grandmaster level

>>34187795

>>34187805
We are gonna do the same to darzi, which is why i'm asking if the same can be said about us, plus it helps us get a bonus to the next water meditation(assuming we don't get an insight) and get rids of our mark(also allows us to use the princess ring with out any worry)

>>34187848
What part of "grandmaster level" do you not understand? We can't heal scars until we get grandmaster healing.

>>34187848
>princess ring
Would that help or hurt with haggling?

>>34187720
With Darzi's help, you might be able to do it while meditating. I'd probably give maluses to the meditation itself due to the gaping wound in your face. -4 at most. There's also the issue of carving out the scar tissue in order to heal it. If you failed the meditation you'd be left with a scar, and if you succeeded it would be gone for good.

I really thought we had more cool artifacts.

>>34187942
We have a ton, but we've given a lot of them to our companions to use.

>>34187575
What's the antimage core?

>>34187886
Yes we can.
>>34187975
Something that allows us to make permanent super golems for cheap.

>>34187975
It's like Fulvia's core but belongs to one of those high level antimage constructs we fought.

>>34187975
You mean the "antimage golem core"?

>>34187975
The core of a construct you pried out of a beast that almost killed you. It would allow you to make a golem and have it stick around, should you purify it.

Let's give the old coot a monster's venom gland.

Im all for giving him the pipe weed and lantern.

>>34188007
>>34188012
Would a group healing with Darzi using the poison gland give a huge bonus(we would purposely poison our selves and then meditate to get rid of the damage, with Darzi help)?

>>34187975
A core used that would aid in making sweet sweet golems

It also hates everything, everywhere, all the time and gibs mages roight and proper

You frown. {Fine, I'm on my way back then. I'll do my best not to get caught on the way.} You slide the helmet back onto your head, wincing as pain shoots up and down your spine. It doesn't hurt as much as it did the first time, but you doubt it will ever be pleasant. Fortunately the pain is soon replaced by a soothing ache, and then nothing at all. Strength floods into your limbs and your vision sharpens, everything seems just that bit easier than it was before. You get the feeling that the helmet is the primary component of this armor.

“One more thing, Master. Could you take a look at one of my companions and gauge their magical potential?” He glances from Mortia to Skull Kid, and then nods. “Sure, I can tell you the human woman has artificially limited her own potential. I'll need to do a little more in depth analysis of the metal man.” You nod, and turn your attention to Skull Kid. “Lift up your helmet.” Skull Kid looks from you to your master. “I don't know, is this going to hurt?” Your master scowls. “Don't be a damned baby, it won't hurt any more than a bee sting.” Skull Kid nods and lifts up his helmet, to your Master's credit he only flinches slightly at the sight of the wire-filled holes where his eyes ought to be.

Master Karim reaches up and taps Skull Kid once on each temple, and once in the center of his forehead. Skull Kid winces on the last one, but otherwise seems fine. Your master shakes his head. “This one will never advance very far in the magical arts. Perhaps he may someday learn to use basic magic, create a spark, heal a scrape, dry cloth, limited control of plants, or basic manipulation of stone and metal... but even those feats will tax him greatly.” Skull Kid frowns, and flips his helmet down once more. You simply nod.

Git Gud

Might be a good idea to ask him if he knows anything about the water temple we are going to.

You reach for your cloak, but realize with some amount of consternation that you don't have it with you. “Master, could I borrow your apprentice? I wish to offer you something for all the help you've given me over the years but I don't have my cloak with me, it has all my things.” Your master waves a hand dismissively. “Sure, Rasim has time to cook my meals.” You nod, and a thought occurs to you. “And could I have a chicken? Live, preferably.” Karim scrunches up his face in confusion. “Gods above, why?” You smile. “I have a friend who has acquired a taste for chicken, the fresher the better.” Your master grumbles something about associating with freaks and then waves Rasim off. “Fetch a chicken, and then follow Mikhael to the North Gate to get whatever gift he has. Quickly, boy.”

Rasim bolts off, you'd half expect he'd spent most of the day trying not to run away from your old Master. What is wrong with this kid? He returns a few moments later with a live chicken hanging upside down, its feet held tightly in his hands. The chicken looks around with an odd sort of calm to it, clucking at seemingly random intervals. Strange animal, that is. Everything gathered you open the door and say your good byes. “I hope to see you soon, Master. Try not to go insane before I get back.” Your master waves you off. “Please, if anyone should be warned about going insane it ought to be you. Out with you.”

The door shuts behind you, and your party of four sets off towards the North Gate. There isn't much conversation to be had. Mortia has proven a particularly unfriendly woman so far and you get the feeling that Skull Kid is upset about what your master told you in relation to his magic talent. Rasim is far too timid to speak unless spoken to.

Now that you know manipulate, you couldn't reliably try to cure poison with healing magic. You'd end up just using Manipulate+Poison to cure yourself. You might be able to poison yourself and then only try and heal the damage the poison causes, which would offer a bonus of... +8, or so.

You slap Skull Kid lightly on the back. “Come now, no reason to be so down. Some magic is better than none, and with your technical knowledge I'm sure you'll find other ways to occupy yourself in this reality.” He nods wearily. “I know, it's just a disappointment, man. I was looking forward to being able to pull some of the bullshit moves you do. Now I'll just have to content myself with revolutionizing the world and going down in history as the greatest inventor to ever live.” You smirk, replying sarcastically. “Quite difficult to swallow, I'm sure.” At least he's not too down on himself.

You turn your attention to Rasim, who's taken to hovering slightly behind you. Apparently he's too afraid to approach either Skull Kid or Mortia. You put a hand on his shoulder and guide him forward, so you can actually see him. He simply whimpers, like a kicked puppy. “Were you beaten, boy?” He looks up to you like you just struck him and quickly shakes his head, indicating he wasn't. “Then why are you so timid? What cause have you to shake like a leaf?” The boy opens and closes his mouth several times before finding his voice. “W-when I was... when I was inside the test chamber I saw... some sort of...” He scrunches up his face. “-They were like skeletons, but not really. They still had skin, sort of. In some places. Their skulls were smashed in and they dripped this... this golden stuff. It burned everything it touched.”

(1/?)

You stare at him for a moment, and then grin. “Listen, I see those three regularly. Why, they saved my life just... last week, I suppose. Prevented me from handing over a powerful artifact to an ancient slumbering dragon. They're not nice, but they aren't mean either. What did they say?” The boy looks at you wide eyed. “Y-you can hear them too? They told me about the future! They said I was going to be great entertainment, and kept laughing all creepy like...” He frowns, seems he at least found his voice finally. “They said the same about me, and I turned out alright. You need to stop worrying about it though. It won't get you anywhere, and Master Karim hates cowards. He's like to make sure you spend your every waking moment trying to avoid his pointless pranks if you're not careful.”

Rasim's frown seems to intensify. “Well how am I supposed to help that? He's going to prank me no matter what, so I've gotta be paranoid...” You shake your head. “No, you don't. You can take your licks and try to dish them out as well. Master used to think it was the funniest thing when I used what I'd learned to try and get him to slip down the stairs or paralyze him or dump water on him while he slept. It never worked, of course, but he found it funny regardless. If you take your licks he'll be satisfied, and go easy on you afterwards. If you keep thwarting his attempts he'll just try harder.”

Rasim nods, and not long afterwards you spot the North Gate up ahead. You spot your companions as soon as you're through the gate. Darzi is pacing back and forth behind the bench, while Chrys is talking to thin air, as far as you can tell. Profectus is sprawled out across half of the bench asleep, and Fulvia is standing politely next to Chrys. None of that matters though, because behind them is a sight that leaves you speechless.

(2/?)

A massive carriage, lashed to a team of four camels. It's wooden, with a strange banner streaking down one side. The decoration is garish and macabre, but hopefully it ought to dissuade others from bothering you. It ought to be able to fit all seven of you, though it may be a tight fit. Darzi is the first to spot you, and she waves you over. “Finally! Do you know how long we've been waiting?” She glances from you to Rasim, and then shakes her head. “Who's the little kid and why is he following you?”

You ignore her, instead making your way towards Chrys. You pick up the tail end of some sort of conversation. “-screeching, just send images like you were. It was far easier to interpret than this high pitched wail. What is that supposed to mean? No, you certainly cannot-” She jumps, slightly, when she notices you. “Ah, Mikhael. You've returned.” A bit of color enters her cheeks, seems she was rather intensely focused on her conversation with Ricky. She whips off the cloak and offers it to you in a single motion. “Your pet monster has been most unruly ever since I put that accursed garment on. He keeps asking for food, and asking me to buy things. I don't know how you put up with it.”
(3/4)

You take the cloak, putting it on carefully. Ricky doesn't screech, doesn't project any pictures into your mind. You do seem to be aware of everything they'd bought while they were out, but that's the only greeting you get. “He's quite for me.” You tell her, while relieving Rasim of the live chicken. You pull your cloak wide to put it in but an ethereal tentacles darts out and wraps around the bird. It lets out a panicked cluck before being jerked out of your hands, into the cloak. Rasim looks absolutely horrified.

You pull out the pipe and the bag of pipeweed and hand it to Rasim, along with a gold coin for him. “The coin is for you, take the rest back to Master.” He backs away slowly, still looking at you like you just grew a second head. After a few steps he turns and bolts.

>The stooges were in the magic test gate
http://ask.fm/quidam_asinus
>>How is magical talent discovered?
>>The test itself was fairly simple. You walked through a blackened doorway. Once inside there didn't seem to be anyway out. You panicked for a moment, but eventually calmed and sat down and waited to see what would happen. You were only nine years old, at the time. Eventually a voice from nowhere said simply "Ha! This one will do." and you woke up on the floor of the room you'd left. The doorway nowhere to be seen.
The fuckers knew about us when we were a kid and pretended not to when we met at the Academy.
Does make me wonder though, does this mean we were already a bit insane as a kid? And just how fucked up will Rasim turn out?

>>34189589
He is already a slightly bit insane, since he could see them clearly, and it took us around 4-5, for chrysa to hear them she was 1-2.
Also it seems he might become a powerful Magi.

>>34189631
I wonder Why Chrys can talk to Ricky that clearly, maybe it's something to the with her magical nature. But really, we should check in on Ricky and think with him for a while.
Maybe we're too insane for Ricky to talk to us? That would make me sad.

>>34189631
Hmm true, but he's not going on adventures so he'll being boring for them

>>34189617

>>34189617

>>34189705
I think it's just kids with Vatis potential, otherwise it wouldn't really be a test, would it?

Concerning SK we could have said basic stuff for a Samjan are pretty much mid tier for a human, even if that was a lie or something.

I forget, did our Master have a reaction when we mentioned the stooges? He probably talks with them all the time but is being all coy and shit.

Why do you think Link only drinks milk?

You wave after Rasim as he runs for the gate, calling out to him. “I'll be seeing you, little apprentice! Remember to just relax, and go with the flow! The skeletal figures just like to watch, usually!” Huh, that could probably be misconstrued if taken out of context. Ah well, it's not your problem. You turn sharply on your heels and clap your hands together. “Right! Lets set off then, everybody load into the carriage!” Darzi simply grumbles “Finally.” before jerking over the black wooden door and climbing into the compartment of the carriage. Fulvia follows shortly afterwards, while Chrys simply removes that strange mechanically enhanced bow from a sheathe on her hip designed especially to hold the weapon. She hops up into the driver's seat, apparently she'll be riding up front.

You reach into your cloak and withdraw a warhammer. It's got a long metal haft, which appears twisted together from several different bars of steel and intricately carved. It's about as long as your arm, capped with a spike at the base and the hammer head at the top. The hammer itself is smaller than one would of expect, but made of heavy steel. A long spike extends down one side, designed to punch holes in plate armor, and the flat of the hammer proper looks more like a spiked meat tenderizer than a workman's hammer. You tap Skull Kid lightly on the head with the weapon, eliciting a loud metal 'ding' and then hand it to him. He'd probably glare at you, if he had eyes.

(1/2)

Finally you kick Profectus off of the bench. He hits the ground and startles awake, leaping to his feet and shouting something incoherent. When he sees you're not under attack, he shoots you a withering glare. “Fucking... don't need to be a dick about, Mikhael. I wasn't even asleep! Just... resting my eyes...” He yawns, rather reducing the legitimacy of his claim. “Whatever you say, my friend! Now get in the carriage, we're leaving.” He grumbles, but does as you say. He climbs into the carriage compartment, along with Skull Kid and a very amused Mortia. That leaves you to drive. Great.

You climb into the driver's seat adjacent Chrys and take up the reins and the driving whip. You're not terrible experienced when it comes to driving a carriage, but you've done it before. You crack the lip loudly above the camels and they jerk into motion. You carefully guide them onto the road, cracking the whip in the air a few more times to get them up to speed. Before you know it, you're rumbling along the ancient cobblestone road along the coast. You figure if you just follow the coast you ought to eventually be able to pull off and cross the scrub lands to reach the temple.

(2/3)

As you settle into the monotony of driving, you turn to Chrys. “So, what did you and Ricky talk about?” She turns her attention away from the desert surrounding you. She's got an arrow nocked, and presumably is on the lookout for bandits. “He kept asking me to buy him things. Animals, mostly. He asked for a dog, and a cat, and a chicken. Even asked for a tiny horse that some merchant was parading around as a 'pygmy' horse, whatever that means. He also asked me for furniture, for some reason. He wanted a rug, and various other decorations. It was very strange, if for no other reason than he projected images of what he wished for directly into my mind.”

Crap. Uhmm.
Start channeling vys into seeds to make them grow faster.
Extend our concept of "self" while meditating to include the area around us.
Try and feel the life of the trees that made up the wood of this carriage.

Fire seems to be the winner.

I kept seeing nature/metal pop up so i thought it might lose.

>>34194704

Not suspicious at all.

>>34194752
How about no.

>>34194767
I lurk.

>>34194752
Nah, just move on.

So Right now the baby sees us as a brother/parent.
So i think Master would either be parent, or older brother and more like parent.

>>34194767
There I deleted my 2 votes for Metal.

>>34194767
I voted for two of the things I wanted to meditate on (fire & metal). I'm sure some others did the same.

>>34194683
Could be. Who know?
I didn't even vote because I don't really care one way or another.

>>34194768
I refer to >>34194767
cause fucking seriously apparently so many players show up.

>>34194810
I did it for fire(baby dragon) and water(Darzi promise, but do one ourselves, so that it fails and the mediation with her gets a another bonus), i didn't feel like doing nature yet or metal.

Hokay! Meditating on fire. What method do you want to use?

I'd offer incubating the egg, but on a carriage it's just not really practical. For one, the carriage is made of wood, and there also isn't much room to do it.

>>34194857
>Try to bend and distort the light to create a simple illusion.

Let's try something that'd be simple and maybe eventually also practical, like an illusion of a face or concealment of a small item.

>>34194857
>Try to bend and distort the light to create a simple illusion, a signpost or something similar.(+8)
That's a total of ten right there.

Set cloak down and use the rags to help incubate the egg.

>>34194704
I'd like to just point out, fire while useful isn't as metal.
Fire offensive
Metal Defense
We've plenty of fire power and not as much Defense.
And with metal we can protect our minds from getting crazier.

>>34194857
>Hold your hand in an open flame. (+4)
Let's not risk burning down our new carriage

>>34194898
I thought the power of creating illusions went up, as with fire.

>>34194910
That would actually work, good thinking, Anon.

>>34194912
I'm all for opting metal after water. Especially given how our master talked about grandmastering changing our inner nature, metal feels like it'd be a good bet to prevent us from deep ending while we work up fire & earth.

>>34194940
So we can do incubating the egg again?

>>34194857
Soma do you intend to make or update a paste bin with our understanding of each elememt and the basics/concepts surrounding it? It would help with coming up with meditation ideas

>>34194936
It's a total of +10 as opposed +6 which we get with the egg.

>>34194910
I still rather do the illusion thing

>>34194956
If people had supported it, but it seems illusions are the method of the day.

>>34194979
I'll add it to the list of things I need to do.

Writin' for
>Try to make a minor illusion.

>>34194993
Wait where does it say we get+6 from the egg?

>>34194857
>>Try to bend and distort the light to create a simple illusion, a signpost or something similar.(+8)
>>34194945
Thats what im saying.
We need to be able to not go crazy.
And learning up to master in metal should be a big help. Also learning slow.

>>34195010
Whats the added bonus of the egg?
I thought it was plus 10.
>>34194993
How did you get the extra+2?

>>34194971
i had one vote there.
and holy shit that was so much work you just put in.. lol

>>34195012
+4 for the egg tutoring us and +2 for being a trained vatis.

>>34195017
Speed is better.

>>34195034
The Egg offers diminishing returns. This time it would've only been a total of +4, +2 from being a Vatis and +2 from tutoring.

>>34195066
We'll be learning both.

Rolled 3, 10, 7 + 10 = 30 (3d10 + 10)

>>34195010

Rolled 7, 10, 6 + 8 = 31 (3d10 + 8)

So we're rolling or?

>>34195080
Speed, should be the first one since it has a better application in combat.

Rolled 3, 3, 5 + 8 = 19 (3d10 + 8)

>>34195010

>>34195066
while it may be better for certain things. I am thinking only for proctection.
Slow + healing
Slow + Metal = Mind helmet. so no more crazy.
Throw in 15 vys towards metal magic on mind and we could likely not go bat shit insane if we meditate with spice if we did that.
