Turn 1: A mess, research and gems
Ander FlaskoAction: Go to the library, and search for a book on summoning, and a book on glyphs. Take the best ones I find, and head up stairs to study them
Result: You go to the library in search of books on glyphs and demons. The library is well stocked, though you know that it won`t offer much information about the higher mysteries of summoning. A book on the top of a bookshelf catches your attention- You reach for it, but you stagger against the bookshelf and many, many, books fall down on you. [Glyph searching roll: 1] [Dodge roll: 3] While the books fall down on you, being books they cause not much damage. Amidst the pile of books you find an old one about demons, titled "Eastern demons". A silver lining, at least. [Search for books about demons roll: 5]
After an hour of reading you have found some promising demons:
Pheekque: A Imp. Apparently stronger than most imps.
Tinradia: Another Imp. A really stealthy one, apparently, but also mischievous.
Oldquaech: A ghoul of moderate strength. Rebellious, but a good spellcaster.
Peceraw: A strong gargoyle known for eating children.
Culrod: A weak, but clever, djinn. Hates christians with a passion.
EdarathAction: Draw new pentacles.
Draw a Glyph of Might on the pentacle used for capturing demons in my room. Use my Creativity to draw a Glyph on the pentacle for my own protection.
Result:You draw two perfect pentacles and you are absolutely sure that you did no mistake. [Roll: Hidden for pentacles. Though that one was a 6.] The glyph of might looks slightly crooked- But you think that it will serve. [Roll: Hidden for glyphs]. You also try to create a glyph of protection- After all, someone invented the glyphs at one point- Why shouldn`t you be able to do it, too? You try to invert the glyph of might, according to your logic it should somehow weaken demons that attack you. [Roll: Hidden for glyphs]
CaellathAction: Go to the library and look for books about glyphs and with the names of demons. Search for one with a personality that matches mine. Preferrably a ghoul. With good shapeshifting abilities.
Result: The mess Ander has caused somehow distracted you from your task to find a book about glyphs. [Roll: 3] but apparently the bookshelf he toppled over contained some neat books on demons and you find one titled "Complex Compedium of Ghouls and other wights". Jackpot. [Roll: 6]
In the book you find several promising ghouls:
Namel: A strong ghoul renowned for his shapeshifting abilities. He is arrogant, though.
Ykimirynu: A good shapeshifter and spellcaster. He is weak and cruel. Constantly lusts after delicious corpses.
Nyobi: A ghoul described as "Pretty insane". He is average in every aspect.
Catyso: Can assume many forms, but constantly emits the smell of rotting flesh.
Kemukira: He is obedient and pretty cunning- Though he is a bad spellcaster.
Conchobar:
Action: Ask around about any bones or gems people would be willing to part with for the good of the soon-to-be court wizard.
Result: You decide to visit the town beneath the castle in order to persuade people into giving you some gems and bones. Rumors spread fast, and everyone knows that you are one of the wizards that came to castle Felsenstein this morning. When you talk about your ambition to become the new court mage the people seem to believe that you have a realistic chance to do so. [Roll: 6] Many try to give you a gift in order to win your favor, well those that aren`t too afraid of a wizard at least, and you end up with a good meal, several bones given to you by a butcher and even with some stones- Several pieces of quartz and a ruby! The jeweler is really happy to help you- After all, mayhaps you will remember him later.
Klaus
Action: Go to the library and take the biggest book on djinni that I see. In that book, find a djinn with an affinity for lightning magic.
Result: The mess in the library can`t distract one with such an unique mind, and you find a book on djinn titled "Various djiin. Names, Powers and dangers". It isn`t very thick, nor written by a prestigous wizard, but should serve for the moment. [Roll: 4]
You search for Djinn that have some affinity for lightning- You find the following ones:
Skelkela: A strong djinn. Cruel and likes to cause chaos and harm.
Fisrusk: Average djinn with a good grasp on lightning magic. He is a good fighter, too, but very proud.
Rhithlale: A lesser djinn more known for his shapeshifting abilities than for his combat skills. Makes good use of his lightning bolts, though. Often annoyed his masters.
RenzoAction: Go to the smith and ask about getting a gem stone in his sword. Then get a book on enchanting
Result: You go to the castle smith, a man like a bull named Trystley. You ask him friendly whether he could add a little gem or something to your blade. [Roll: 4] It works! "Uh- Well, lord Felsenstein asked us to serve the wizards as well as we can. But i have no gems lying around here. You have to ask Felsenstein for one." Well, you walk all the way back to felsensteins hall, wait till the other petitioners are gone and ask him. He consents, altough he is only willing to part with a small emerald. You take it to the smith and within an hour he has put the emerald into the hilt. However, that ordeal took some time and you didn`t have time to search for a book on enchanting.
/Note: If Klaus wants to prepare the spell he has to do so in another turn. Preparing a spell takes a whole turn and can`t be combined with other actions- Else summoning would be too easy for him, don`t you think?

Name: Klaus Strickmann
Appearance: A shorter-than-average man with a square chin and a clean-shaven head. His manner of speech is notable in that it's as flowery as an arctic quarry - or, in other words, drier than Hell.
Biography: If this world's psychology was sufficiently developed at the time, Klaus would have been called a high-functioning autist by its adepts. But there wasn't even such a thing as 'psychology' when Klaus came to be an apprentice, and so he was known to his master and peers as a somewhat weird, incredibly pedantic, and yet a gifted boy whose unwavering focus and unrelenting discipline far outweighed his lack of interpersonal skills.
Klaus spent nearly all his time in a self-imposed seclusion in his master's tower, not too interested with the outside world's facts and happenings, fully submerged in the academic atmosphere of arcane research. However, when he became a Wizard, Klaus had to throw away the sweet purposefulness of apprenticeship and finally embrace his illusions of grandeur: to get to the apex of perfection, he absolutely had to go out and get some large-scale summoning practice. Adventuring oughta be better than sitting in the tower reading books all day, right?
