"Justified paranoia would be putting magical people in places where they can't do magic. Silly paranoia is killing them without reasons beyond what could happen."
"Magicians can do magic anywhere. Magic done in the castle in the middle of Arendell's capital affected the entire world. Where would you put someone who can do that, to stop them from causing harm?"
"Besides, the untimely winter's only the latest, most obvious threat. A whole damn lot of our troubles can be traced to mages, and there's probably others we can't trace that were. It's not what could happen, it's what has happened."
"Yes, thank you Finna."

Selina pales even more... How much damage had her crystals caused in the past?

"Well maybe if people bothered to teach magi to use their magic responsibly there wouldn't be as many problems? Just something to chew over."

Selina gulps and looks visibly nervous. As well as clutching her crystal and herbs bag tightly.

Probably.



Logan is flogged. Kyle gets some rather nasty chores. Aside from that...basic training, abbreviated version.

First, the statistical stuff.
1. Everyone gets 50 XP in Dodging and Soldiering--more than enough to reach Level 1. (Soldiering covers minor things like routine weapon maintenance, making edible food, understanding jargon, and the other minor skills every soldier needs to thrive.)
2. Everyone gets 50 XP in one weapon skill. Sword, Bow, Knife, Unarmed, whatever. They also get 25 in another, which is nearly enough for Level 1.
3. Everyone gets 30 XP (exactly enough for Level 1) in a skill related to some kind of combat technique with the above. Be creative!
4. You also get 20 XP in two other skills which one might pick up in a military camp.

Second, the more...interesting stuff.
5. Who do you talk or interact with? How?
6. How do you spend your time?
7. Overall, how are you adjusting to the military life?
(Depending on how you answer this, I hope to give everyone a neat little RP section from during basic training. Please try not to destroy anything important during them.)

2. Kyle takes lessons on how to fight unarmed.
3. Kyle learns... how to sweep the leg.
4. Kyle picks up somethings on smuggling and trading.

5. Kyle spends his time chatting up his superiors and otherwise getting on their good side.
6. Kyle spends his time flirting with his CO.
7. To be blunt... Oh god this is horrible under a mask of indifference.

How to what?

This will end well.

Sweep the leg. You know, sweep someones legs out from under them.

And given Kyle's charisma boosts, most likely.

2. Selina learns Archery mainly, but also a little knife fighting.
3. Selina learns how to, and this IS real and completely possible with arrows, ricochet arrows off stone surfaces. The angle is shallow, no more than 20 degrees, but it CAN work.
4. Selina increases her skill in woodcraft and herbalism. (Which makes sense as both would be needed)

5. Selina talks mostly with anyone whos been on sentry duty to see if she could find signs of her friend. She tries to seem casual about it... in her normal incredibly nervous way.
6. Selina spends her time carefully trying to smuggle food to the woods so her friend, if she was out there, could eat.
7. Selina absolutely hates it.

2. Halberd+50, War Darts+25
3. Spear-Making(for making more war darts)+30
4. Buckler+20, Parrying+20

5. I spend a lot of time with the more elite soldiers, trying to learn as much as I can about the technique I'm going for. During his downtime he tries to learn more about the other mages.
6. Strength training, with the goal of being able to one-hand the halberd, is Logan's primary focus. His second is being able to maintain and create more of the weapons he specializes in.
7. I hate it, but am determined to take advantage of it. I see it as an opportunity to learn more about my captors.
