"What sort of riot has taken place?"
"Well, a riot. They're convicts there, same as you, want the same things you do. Money, power, a way off this frigid hole. I expect the administrator was lax in security and they took an opportunity to seize the mine. That's why you're on a time limit. Only so long until they all go bandit. Got to get them while they're in one place."
Did I find any blood mages? If I did, consult them about the were-bear corpse. If I did not, I will preserve it in the pickle juice. I went with the group. The rage-inducing image is of a man who has just set fire to an orphanage and is currently torturing babies in front of their parents, while flipping the viewer the bird, and is doing it all "for te lolz".
[8] You have no luck finding any blood mages, or any mages at all. The town hall has a library, but it mostly contains cheap, second hand books with an anomalously large percentage of erotic fiction. There are books on natural science there as well. Maybe, with more investigation you might find something, but the odds are slim.

[Arcane: 6+3] Everything is on fire. Your floors, your walls, your furniture are all ablaze. No. Wait.
The building is on fire. You rage through the orphanage, consuming sweet flesh with your blazing wrath - no, no! The fire rages, you stand apart. You are trying to escape the flames, but your short legs can't carry you fast enough. The heat sears you, roasting away your scales. You beat desperately against the thick walls of your egg, trying to escape the fluid which has gone from warm to searing.
You'll make them pay for what they've done to you.You twist your fingers and another wing of the orphanage explodes with incandescent fury. You pick up another egg and smash it into the flames, the foetus screaming and wailing as it is shrivelled to death. With a blade of flame you slice open the throat of a child, her blood spurting over the horrified expressions of her parents, impaled against the wall.
You are fire. You are death. You are hatred.You have learnt the 'Rage' aspect of Mentalism.
