Dodge the first pass, try to see what I am dealing with.
Cuberac waited patiently as the rumble approached him. At the last moment he backfliped backwards and landed just far away to see a massive worm break through the ground in the place where he recently stood. As tiny stones fell all around Cuberac had a few moments to take attention to details, namely that the worm was about large enough to swallow his leg whole but it had a sharp beak on it's front that could impale him if he ever failed to dodge it.
Fly southwest to the swamp, then send the bird to look for treasure

LUCK [9]
Seva left the wizard oversaturated Tower and flew off towards the swamps. Sunken treasure was the one most likely to remain unclaimed after long amounts of time after all. Looking at a sharp edge poking out of wet dirt on which the treasure bird perched, Seva began to understand why the treasure was unclaimed. Digging out whatever this was out of the muck would be a chore.
Doktor Diabolical:
"Well, that's... well, it's not as though I'm going to use it for anything other than a sacrifice."
Doktor Diabolical sits down and initializes the aether resonance matrix using the parts cutter bot(get back here!), the factory bot, and the atomic reconstructor bot as sacrifices.
Intended effect: create(-1) a huge(-2) robot that creates other robots with a three-step process: first, it transmutes the materials it is given into metals(?, might be covered by sacrifice), then shapes the metals into robot parts(?, same), then assembles robots from them(?, same) according to Doktor Diabolical's orders(-1). Also, all robots created by it automatically obey Doktor Diabolical's orders(-?).
{I get a feeling that you might not be entirely clear on ritual rules. For one, there aren't any maluses, there is only increase in minimum required power. Also, it takes some turns.}

Doktor ordered his cutter bot back and began his work as soon as it returned. Alone, these bots were not overly impressive, but they could be remade into something greater and far more respectable. As soon as drones were captured by the spell, the form began shaping but it was going slow. Maybe he should had put up some black candles, just for aesthetic purpose, obviously, no rituals here.
1 semi-aetherial blade
Skeliborn noticed that he was lacking in a certain matter. He had no way to cut ghosts on him. Swiftly, he conjured an ethereal blade, or at least, attempted to. What actually appeared was more akin to a knife with some really strange bends that Skeliborn couldn't pick up. This thing was entirely ethereal.

Chorkinaan carefully put away the cleaved apart dummies and other assorted broken parts scattered around the smithy. There were no replacements here so that would have to do. Well, aside form some weapon racks, nothing of real value was lost. It wasn't too bad.
((I'll go ahead and set the spell up, because why not)).
Already checked the book for this trade, so I think we're good on that front.
Create a talisman which gives the wearer the dexterity and speed of an insect. Gun for at least +1 to each (more if possible). If I could get more dex by dropping speed, I'd gladly do so.
Viznor helps with five knowledge essences +1+1.
I'd like Easter use essences worth at least +2+2, to ensure success and because that's what I did for his. Throw him an extra CMP essence through the cloak, if need be (and assuming I can do that).
When the spell is completed, I suppose we each start wearing our respective items instead of leaving them on the floor.
Easter Sunday aids with the spell, using lesser blood magic and +1+1 essence.
{vishdafish, please look at what kind of essences you have. You had 0 +1/+1 essences, +1/+2 was used instead}

END [5]
Viznor and Easter focused on the second part of the deal, forging an amulet of swiftness. They pooled their magical power and this time result was considerably smaller but still contained great magical power. The amulet itself was a stylized wasp in a hexagon, and was made of black and yellow chitin.
{Amulet of swiftness +1DEX +1SPD. Will also give one DEX reroll per turn if Whisperling can explain how Knowledge affinity was relevant here. Also, essences retain their affinity while in cloak.}
Just 4 more essences.

LUCK [9+1+1+1=12]
Gambler continued focusing his power and this time he was visited by extra fortune. One of his essences escaped into the walls, revealing in a glint of a coin spinning through the air, just for a moment, a great secret. Name of the Goddess of Luck. Probably not the name of the Goddess of Luck, as she was a particularly powerful one, but that would be enough to call forth a random effect to happen to anyone in hearing range.
