Could we enchant metal such that it is lightweight and then melt it down and coat the skeleton while retaining the enchant? Or would we have to apply the enchantment after coating our minion?
Also, Create a lens that makes the underlying mechanisms of magic visible.(Reveals ambient magic, Aura, Ley lines, Ect, Making them visible to our eyes or brain.)

Wait, can it craft scrolls? We used a craft scroll spell to make it. Also, thank you Shadestyle, I'm really glad that this is back.

*slow clap* Well ATHATH congratulations. You managed to give the MC a mental breakdown before we even finished the first arc.

No, well, not in the same sense of the "craft scroll" spell, but it can clearly describe objects on paper like identifications scrolls. However, it seems that it's descriptions will be a bit open to interpretation...

Whoa, slow down there cowboy,w hat kind of game do you think you're playing here? We don't just ask for what we want, we haphazardly throw things together until it resembles something that could be used for the same purpose. Why, if we just asked for what we wanted we could finish this game in one comment, just say "I want to be powerful, I want to have tons of minions, I want a cool base, I want to win the game" and we're done. Now where's the fun in that?

The pen bug is adorable, but there might be a better use for our one mana than using it to cap off his sustenance...
>Get pen bug to identify Valerik

If only so we can see what it thinks of us...

We really should have tried identifying the scrolls earlier.

The combination sigil combines the concepts of the objects, I think we'd have to combine the identification scroll with one of our circles to make an identification circle, hence why I said to combine it with a detect object sigil earlier. I don't think ink would give us the properties we want. Unfortunately we don't have to mana to do my idea so I'll stay hesitant rather than opposed to this.

Oh, the one in the crackpot? That's sustained flame inhale, if mix that into ink we'll probably get some fire retardant or exploding ink or something, though we can imbue flame inhale with other spells it is its own spell and does not create identify scrolls on its own. Even if it did, it would probably be the same as the chunky ink we just made in that mundane ink would work just as well...

Could we maybe make a alchemical system of vials and pipes to store extra magic? we could even surgically implant it below our skin and tissues for concealment.
Or we could use crystals, Might even embed them into our bones.
Or maybe a mixture of both ideas into an unholy blend of crystals, Vials and pipes hidden within our body. Constantly pumping magical energies like a secondary vascular system, But for magic instead of blood and nutrients.

I'm alredy planing an alchemical system, althou not an implanted one. Both the mining and the learning dwarven were sort of towards that. Oh, that reminds me:

I thought we already had two ways of storing magic, keeping it in Nevermore without severing ourselves and just not using it. It's not like we max out on mana, the problem is getting more, not storing what we've got.

An alchemical system would be useful though, get into potion brewing and a similar system might make a single potion last for ten times as long (or maybe we could learn to crystallize magic to increase the ambient mana so we get more when we sleep or even generate it while awake).

I don't know what learning dwarven would help with, except for being able to read the instructions on our autoextruder (which might mean we don't have to use PP to learn how to operate the damn thing). But it looks like we've already learned all the crafts pertaining to pipes and mechanisms, and actually talking to a dwarf would probably be more useful than asking bugsy what specific words are.

You cast Sustained Craft scroll twice, Setting one of them in a crackpot.
