Grab some of the crystals as well & study what they are/do. Can its magic be harvested for easier casting?
Grab the big crystal. If it's too big to grab, summon an unbreakable glass chisel, and hit it parallel to a surface. This should split it cleanly into a more usable size. If this works, give the other mages chunks as well.
Make essences - one if a chisel was summoned, two if it was not.

"Take care"
Travel south-west to catch up to the expedition.
While traveling see if I can modify the armguard to have a helicopter blade extending from the shoulder. Flight is a very good ability to have, especially when you want to travel fast.
Then forge 3 healing essences of course.

Does the armguard give +1 to strength stat, or +1 to strength rolls? Ideally the second.

[Sarrak]

"Interesting. I expected something entirely different..."

Kahel stroked his chin in thought. There were some prospects in harvesting this power. Or taking it for future studies... The main problem was that he became increasingly bored with relaxed lifestyle he lived here. And boredom was not something he'd accept for long...

Cast cooling on the crystal and take it with me to study later. Head back to the lands north of Tower in search of mages to kill, leaving Eterna in peace for now. Some sort of hill is preferable, so that I may oversee the lay of land. 3 essences, so that I may prepare for battle.

((I'm starting mage hunting. James, Jase, Crimson as well as Jiksap and Visnor are probably exempt because of posed danger, past camaraderie and usefulness.

DG, I'd like to clear out all nonactive mages as well. You may want to restrict shard gains or empower them a little as they would be an easy prey otherwise.))

[NAV]

((inactive mages could probably be considered soulless, so instead of getting the shards they carry+5, you could maybe just get the shards they carry.))

I hope you enjoy your ill-gotten gains, fillipk, because you won't be enjoying them for long!

Spoiler: WIP future character (click to show/hide)

Name: I Hate Demons (And The People Who Control Them)
Affinity: Killing demons and the people who control them
Description: He was a normal person, until he received a mental message: "Wow, people who control demons really suck." Suddenly, he had the power and desire to kill people who control demons. And their demons, too.
STR: 0
DEX: 1
SPD: 0
END: 1
POT: 6

no, not really

((If you make a beeline straight for me for no reason what so ever I will call bullshit.  Otherwise you will be a worthy adversary.))

"Gog, finish him."

The Gog will finish him, and I will loot him.

See Invisible isn't on your spell list, apparently.

[fillipk]

((OH no I saw it, I just didn't understand what it was talking about.))

[Zormod]

Cuberac takes a glace at these cubes, and sighs. They'd have to do, for now. He thenlooks for another room, and crafts 3 essences.

[DreamerGhost]

((Viznor fixed.

An argument could be made that killing AFK mages should give less shards, as it is easyer to do, and would be out of character for most characters, and it would be unfair to award the rollplaying munchkins.
A counterargument would be, that by original plot, all mages entered the portal with intent to murder their felow casters for pleasure and profit. And that the afk mages are not exactly off limits for the rest of you.

I most likely won't mark the AFK as soulless.))

[H4zardZ1]

"Hm...."
Go one hex east. 4 electric essences.

[AoshimaMichio]

((Who's the pink mage in the forest, a bit north of me?
Edit: Seems to be BlitzDungeoneer.))

Go to north where Alexander seems to be. Play essence roulette.

I continue on and make 4 essences then look around as I walk to see if I notice anything interesting with my glasses (like a magical aura)

[FallacyofUrist]

((DG, I'd like to clear out all nonactive mages as well. You may want to restrict shard gains or empower them a little as they would be an easy prey otherwise.))

((I'm just going to note that inactive mages may act in self-defense(see Jonas' fight with Alex Raman for an example).))
