Turn is posted and all statuses are updated. Sorry for the delay, RL happened and I got busy. It was a good kind of busy, but busy nonetheless.

If you wanted to know my last action was "Find team and steal mana from wizard."

Lol. Now the amulet makes sense. It actually wouldn't change the result of your turn, so I'm not going to fix it. ( 8 is a fail on a difficult action, which is the least taking mana from a  mage with a bronze bismuth amulet would have been.

Just to be sure I'm not being dumb, this turn you're going to a hospital to take mana from sick people, and you'll give them good dreams in return.

So mastah is doing wrestling now, which I've decided is different enough from normal combat that I'm going to codify a slightly different set of rules for rolling in it.

Only small weapons can be used while wrestling.
When two combatants are wrestling each rolls a d6 to determine who gets the upper hand for the turn, skills and str modify this.
Unskilled wrestlers cannot act while the other has the upper hand, skills can change this dynamic.
There is no block or dodge roll, only a damage roll, skills can change this.

I expect Kyle to be able to do this at some point. No good bowbarian is unable to suplex a man.

Is a shield a small weapon?

I figured you would employ this mechanic, which was part of why I decided it needed a long term mechanic, rather than just addressing this situation happening right now.

Your dastana is, your shield is not. Small shield ~ Small weapon :)

Addendum to those rules: Wrestling individuals can neither block nor dodge outside attacks, but baring skills getting involved any attack has an equal probability of striking either individual.

i.e. Cromwell and swordsman are wrestling, if Kyle tries to shoot swordsman a d2 is rolled, 1 is he hits swordsman, 2 is he hits Cromwell.

Ah. Here's the problem with that. Because ghosts are, from my point of view, limited characters for waitlisters I'd prefer you contained yourself to the Altera valley and its contents for now.

Well how was I supposed to know there isn't a cave with undiscovered gems or something?

That's fair, and their is indeed a source of some crystal diversity in the valley. It is in fact known, and if you direct your action towards that source you will be given the chance to access new crystals. It will not necessarily contain all the sorts of crystals you might be interested in however.

I was thinking more expending a manacharge to create a kind of sonar pulse looking for it. It would presumably be a difficult action or even impossible.
