Turn 2_____________________________________________________________________________________________
Enter the castle slowly, while checking for traps.
A castle, eh? This'll make for a good base.
Meh. Fine enough...
Whaz enters the castle with Kirby, but takes different side of it to explore and make his own.
SPD [(4+1)/2+1=3.5SPD [(1+1)/2+1=2Whaz charges off through castle gates first, and goes off exploring the eastern side. Just as he enters a tower to see if anything interesting is visible around the castle, floor gives in under him and shadow wizard promptly falls down to the dungeons. While this would be undesirable for most, dungeons might make ideal base of operations for somone who rules the dark.
Kirby, more wachful of his step, managed to get further. A stroll over the castles' walls revealed that they were mostly servicable, though a bit mossy. Towers were in decent shape too, though their capability to protect from a magical assault was dubious. Finaly, Kirby decided to explore inner keep, and after a short search found himself in the throne room.
Turns out that you are quite a fast walker, and you did not specify that you want to stop at the edge of the forest. Therefore, you are now in the middle of it.
((I think you're confusing me with 4maskwolf. Checking the map, the red dot (w/ no ring) representing him is actually missing.))
Look around my current location for anything suspicious or out of place.
ROLL [4]Crimson looked around,though saw nothing out of the ordinary. There were trees, some moss on the ground and trees, some shrooms scatered about, a few wild beries.
"Hold that thought. I have a plan. I'm going to draw a Ritual and I want you to pump it full of healing/growth magick okay?"
Draw a ritual of growth around a nearby tree and have James power it to make a giant tree we will build our home in.
Stop gathering wood and help David grow his tree.
Healing and growth are both done by the same process: cellular mitosis. Accelerate the trees mitosis to make it grow faster.
And look at the shipwreck. Any of it above water?

A quick search turns out a plum tree seed, which saved newfound bussines partners the hassle to summon one from thin air. David inscribed runes to dictate various parameters he would desire out of their creation, while James buried plum seed in the middle of rune circle and admired clearly visible wrecage of several ships that were floating in the lake. With their tasks done they started casting.
Binding their spells went through soundly, their power directed by Davids runes reached out towards lone seed, waking and empowering it. As first signs of their work rose from the ground, they noticed that something was slightly off. Davids spell was far stronger than James' and the seed colected far more from the earth than it could consume, even draging large rocks with it as it grew upwards. But by James' mastery of art it was still a plant, and by Davids runes it still shaped itself into a house. As their spell exausted itself, duo of mages found themselves looking at a strange structure, part plant part dirt, shaped like a two story tower, windows and all, with large green leafed branches and a few still half-grown plums. It was one natural building, you two could almost pass as elven architects.
Non-aggressive magic and movement.

POT [4+1=5]Jase was about to move towards the mountains, when he decide that it would be wise to leave a little something behind him. He called out a barier of aether that seperated grasslands from hils and continued his trip to southwestern mountains.
Move into the basalt and obsidian fields, towards the volcano.
-snip-
Awesome, thanks! I guess I'll just jump in then, don't much care what color I am.
Follow Ryan to the volcano.
((Scotcmen, your collor is now black))

SPD [(1)/2+1=1.5]Leo Valdez the firemage entered through the Terminus gateway, first to come after those that unlocked the gate. Wether led by desire to experience welcoming heat of volcanic region, or by sensing a felow fire user, he immedietly headed out towards magma fields. There he met Ryan Feng and they exchanged greetings. As coleagues in fire wielding, they decided to not engage in battle immedietly and headed out towards magma pools.
Head towards the shipwreck.
"Mind if I join you, oh fellow wizards?"
SPD [(1-1)/2+1=1]
Whatever Wizradgton was troubled by, seemed to have increased in strenght, as he wasn't able to even get back to the Terminus portal. He then made (probably wise) decision of asking those two wizards near strange looking dirt and tree hybrid tower, if they wouldn't mind his company. They seemed to have started discusing ways to rob Wizardton.

Amazingly, this took hour a bit more than a hour. Time sure flies, but I still have tons of free time left over.
Few notes:
CMP is competence, AKA spell success roll.
ROLL is a luck roll, I'm using d10 for it. I will use it when no other stats are relevant, or when situation depends completely on outside factors. Those two tend to everlap a fair bit.
The tree house is held up primarily by roots of said plum tree.
Ships that are floating in pieces within shipwreck lake are either small (>1m) or half a ship. Ships in question are frigates.
