Spoiler: Emlyn's past (click to show/hide)

Emlyn was born in early February of 1994 in South Korea. His father was Johnathon Grace, an English reporter and amateur filmmaker working on a documentary of Korean culture at the time. Due to the nature of his work, Emlyn would only meet his father sparingly, but had a great amount of affection for the mostly absent figure. His mother raised him using money she earned from work at a local restaurant, and payments Johnathon would deposit while abroad. Though it wasn't an ideal situation, there were few difficulties through most of Emlyn's early childhood.
As he grew older and entered middle school, bullies began to target him. He inherited a small frame from his mother, and his comparatively abnormal intelligence made him an immediate target for releasing stress. Emlyn eventually grew used to the bullying, and stopped carrying things to make him a target. He eventually had to give up bringing money or food, which led to increasingly poor eating habits and malnutrition. In high school, the effects couldn't be ignored any longer, and his father took him out of school. He was taken to Europe, and eventually back to Korea for physical and mental therapy.
When he returned, his frame was mostly unaltered due to the years of abuse he endured. However, his weight was more stable, he had more confidence in himself, and he had developed enough to protect himself from bullies. His fresh enrollment in high school was cut short by Sapphire's recruitment of him. In the two months before he left to join the group Sapphire had told him about, he went through the four years of education he had missed out on in his therapy, along with learning the basics of magic and the world magic community.
When he was supplied with what he needed to pass into the United States, Emlyn decided he wouldn't return to Korea until he could be considered a good man, and that he would allow no person, human or otherwise, to rule over him.

My comp was fritzing all day. Go easy action!

12 Hours-Visit Wraxind again, and use his help to get in contact with Kwal the Water Patron. Use the time to try and get to 'know him', or acclimate myself to his presence, and see what we have to offer each other.

If asked, tell him I'm not yet decided on joining the circle, as it might clash with my duty, but that we can consider the Chaos Circle friends of the New Order.

4 hours: Get to know Mercutio.

Since I have to share a head with this thing for a bit longer I might as well get to know him. Maybe some more indepth knowledge of what our plan is going to be. And certainly talking to a mind so differing from mine will be enlightening.

4 hours: Set up throwable Earthquakes (overnight). +4 knowledge +1 focus +1 limitation +2 mundane skill. -0 to -4 difficulty. Total +8 to +4

4 hours: Set up throwable Petrification. +4 knowledge +1 focus +1 limitation +2 mundane skill. -0 to -4 difficulty. Total +8 to +4

Sorry it took so long.

12 hours: Exercise. Because there's shit all for a tech mage to do in a place that actively fights technological progress.

[Criptfeind]

You know, it says the area resisted. But the negative must not have been that big. You still succeed in the action yah?

[Taricus]

Oh sure. It would be easier for me to do that sort of thing in an area that isn't trying to stop me though.

[Dwarmin]

@Taricus: Maybe use it to your advantage? Practicing tech magic in an area that resists it is like jogging uphill, it should test your limits.

[Taricus]

Hmmm. Idea for the next forum turn alteast.

Hmmm. Idea for the next forum turn alteast.

Unless you plan on frequently visiting the valor place to do that(which isn't a terrible idea, but may prove difficult), then this is our last turn being only there.

[Grek]

So, what's our plan for the big battle? I know for sure that Henry will want to be doing some of his rituals ahead of time to make golems and argue with Mercutio and stuff, and I guess Emlyn might want to strategically pre-flood the area outside of Castle Glory (is that even a thing he can do?) and that my plan is "Exorcise devils, flick-swish werewolves and shoot everything else." but what's everyone else planning here? How are we going to get to the Moonbane weapons first?

I could scout ahead with my harpy, I guess, but seriously, what's our plan here?

[Dwarmin]

Kath or others could potentially take a trip to Veilton or the Orc Camps and find some Mercenaries or such to help us.

[Lillipad]

and I guess Emlyn might want to strategically pre-flood the area outside of Castle Glory (is that even a thing he can do?)

He can. It won't do much, though. In sessions, the only type of flooding that matters is flooding specifically geared to spells.

[Grek]

Recruiting orcs sounds like a good idea. They'd be up for a battle, right?

He can. It won't do much, though. In sessions, the only type of flooding that matters is flooding specifically geared to spells.

You can't make some of those magic fuel bomb things?

You can't make some of those magic fuel bomb things?

I'd imagine making more than one is either currently impossible, or incredibly dangerous to try.
