"A spell combining life and evocation, that doesn't involve healing or purging disease. Restore life to the dead? Tempting, but I wouldn't know where to begin. Destroying undead? Would that even work without a test subject and with no understanding of the subject? Can magic even rebirth undead? (Possible. Come back to that later.) Convert life energy to sustained light? Likely horribly inefficient. Just light a torch instead. It would be best to try something like what we already know ..."

"It would be wise for our first independent project to be a useful spell, (or one that will be when we have abundant mana,) that is similar to one Master Vadhe helped us learn. I propose a spell to restore endurance."

Refreshing Nap

Put a willing target into a magic rest that grants most of the effects of a full night's rest in twenty minutes. Fully restores stamina, and gives morale like a full night of sleep, but does nothing for aching muscles. Takes five minutes to cast, may be used on oneself or another.

Research with the group vote. My vote is for Refreshing Nap.

[Dermonster]

Self directed reasearch? Finally. Maybe I can get some real progress done. I almost have the hang of this Healing spell, I'd better get these idiots into line.


: "Alright, listen up, I'm going to get the hang of this healing spell or decapitate someone trying. Someone get over here and help me."

Study that healing spell.

[ragnarok97071]

At the master's words, Kelnoia nods, thinking a bit. "Okay! Whenever you have time I'd love to learn more about it, but it's fine if you want to help someone else, and I understand that you already offered. I think I'll find somebody ta help me get the hang of life magic for now, unless he decides to work on enchanting. So... I guess I'd better go and find someone, then!"

At that, she turns, looking between everyone... she hears someone ordering the others to help them, frowning a little and slithering over to them. "Hey! We're all Master's students here, and equal, so there's no reason to go around being so rude." She pouts up at him, tail slowly coiling and uncoiling.

[Dermonster]

Shek'Zeer eyed the mermaid with equal parts distain and confusion.

: "I have no idea what you're trying to say. What is a 'rude' and why am I it?"

Zuth's journal; Week five.

The study if magic is going fine. My instinct to bribe my way into a apprentice position was proven right, once again. While I had to sell of most of my holdings, I am sure this will gain me even more power in the future. At this time, Enchantment does seem like the most interesting circle, that goes well with my future plans. But all knowledge does gets me even closer to my goal.

I haven't had the time to converse with the other apprentices at this date, but most of them seems willing to cooperate. I will focus on magic study for a few weeks before rebuilding my political networks.

NOTE I: Kelnoia seems interested in the art of enchantment as well.  A closer cooperation with her might be beneficial.
NOTE II: Davven does have noble blood running through his ways. Will investigate his current status in and outside of the city.



After hearing his masters orders Zuth finally raises his firm, yet calm voice.
–I am to interested in the study of Enchantments. However, The spell proposed by Wilson is an intriguing spell. One that might improve the efficiency of all the students in this room. If there is no opportunity to study enchantment, I will gladly assist you in any way I can.

If the master offers to teach enchantment, Zuth will do that, otherwise he votes for Refreshing Nap, but will do whatever the majority of the students do.
 

[ragnarok97071]

Kelnoia frowns more, arms crossing. "Well, Rude is when you treat other people like they don't matter and stuff, like ordering them to help you instead of being nice and cooperative and asking if anyone wants to help. And you're being rude because you act like you're better than us when we're all still students, and all just getting started."

Of course, at the words of one of the other students, her body moves sinuously upon her tail, looking over at him with a slight smile. Someone else was interested in enchantment, too! "Ooooh... I'm glad that I'm not the only one interested in that sort of thing! Though I'd like to get a good grasp of life magic before learning any more spells... I don't think I'm quite ready for those until then..."

[Knave]

Davven had been at the monastery for weeks now, but his fellow pupils still made him uncomfortable. His village was never home to such a gaggle of different races, and the few that were there served as servants or menial labourers. Now he was surrounded by them. It didn't help that his master was a Gnoll. Had the offer to unlock the secrets of magic not been so tempting, he would have refused him outright. Granted, Vadhe seemed a different sort and had a certain charisma, but Davven couldn't help but be tense around him.

Perhaps it was this uneasiness that was causing him to struggle where others had flourished. While the basic concept of evocation seemed to come naturally to the young man, the actual process of casting life spells was a harder concept. He was pleased that the previous week had seem a good deal of progress, he would have to continue working diligently. How could he ever think about returning life to those who had lost it, if he could not restore the living to a state of good health? Hopefully some quiet study and practise would do him some good.

Practice life circles spells. Specifically basic healing.

[Dermonster]

Shek'Zeer sighs.  Mother was right, these people make no sense.

: "Incorrect. I never stated I was better or that you never mattered. This should be plain. If you were either of those things I would not have requested help. A request is made and individuals that can accomlish the task start on it until it is done, and they then await further tasks.  This is the way things go. 'Rudeness' has never been an issue."

The insectoid princess turns and heads off toward Davven. "If you do not wish to help, and thus learn, it is your loss. Davven will be doing so anyways, by the look of him."

[ragnarok97071]

Her eyes narrow. "You didn't make a request. You made a demand. There's a difference. The way you're supposed to deal with equals is to say something like 'I'm going to get the hang of this healing spell or decapitate someone trying. Can someone please help me with that?'. Not to just tell people to help you."

[Dermonster]

"The drones I lived with made no such fuss over these things. Is 'please' a form of differentiating between the two? Noted. Now would you 'please' stop lecturing me about things I had no possible way of knowing about and focus on the magic?"

[ragnarok97071]

She nods, grinning happily. "Okay. Sorry about being rude then, I didn't know that things were like that where you came from... and yes, that's kind of what the word means."

[Dermonster]

"No harm done. Where I come from is a very different place. For one, I would have had a good thousand children by now."

[Nirur Torir]

Wilson pulls a small journal (He has mentioned that there's nothing on magic inside) out of his satchel, opens it and begins writing on a partially filled page opposing a few sketches of the insectoid princess. He looks up and pauses to speak, prepared to jot down the responses.
"A thousand children, you say? Can Kickikithiks remember that many people, or do you differentiate clans by scent, one clanmate the same as another? Would the lack of remembered identities be a main factor in manners being unimportant?"

[IronyOwl]

((Running turn now. Ruler might want to hurry, though he wouldn't be the only one who's wasting this turn.))

[RulerOfNothing]

Oh right. Also I decided to research an Enchantment spell ragnarok.

"Master Vadhe, I believe it would be a good idea to research a spell to make something more resistant to fire."

Research Imbue Fire Resistance: a spell that makes the target object more difficult to set alight and/or burn more slowly.
