Arcana of Magic

Celia Godfrey
After hearing the explosion you rush towards the ritual room, barely catching the health potion Sail throws to you, and push open the stone door to find Lefs lying in a pool of his own blood. Looking at him you quickly notice that his left hand is missing completely, and faint white tendrils are beginning to fade from the stump left on his left arm. Dashing over you push the poor man onto his back, and slowly drain one of the health potions down Lef's throat before kneeling beside him waiting for the recovery.

Jasper Dome
You follow Celia into the ritual room, and arrive just in time to see her emptying the health potion into Lefs gullet. You wince as you see the stump that used to be Lefs hand, but are relieved to see the bleeding begin to slow somewhat as the skin begins to knit together around the bloody stump.


Hoisk Thegan
Following Celia, and Jasper into the room you find a somewhat disturbing sight as your fellow Rune Mage lies on the ground with the remains of what must be his left hand scattered about on the floor.

Lefs Guamentre
You awaken feeling a constant throbbing pain from the area that your left hand used to be. As you start to sit up a sense of dizziness overcomes you and you collapse back onto the ground as you realize the vast amount of blood you lost.

Formido
You put down the Pyromancy book and begin to read the book on Magic Theory. As you open the book you remember that your Master had said that for any magic user the most important thing to know is magic theory. Skimming through the early pages you begin to see why as you learn that magic theory is the same across every form of magic except Runic Magic, and its base purpose is the creation of spells or magical formulas. A magic user who doesn't understand the basics of magic theory will be forced to use the spells of those who came before them, but one who understands magic theory can create their own spells that fit their school of magic.

Sail
Continuing reading the Alchemy book you quickly find that it begins to explain that the basic process of transmuting metals is less about turning one metal into a completely different metal, and more about increasing the natural value of the metal. Under the laws of Alchemy some metals are simply more valuable than another, but every metal is at its base the same. Its a shape that with enough magical power, and a strong enough formula you can change into any metal ever created.

"I was... gonna... fly..."

Carve the rune again. Read more, and set up a summoning circle, with proper containment procedures.

There is already a summoning circle in the room, but only renegadelobster has a spell to use it.

Hmm.

Watch, give pointers to Lefs. If he can't conjure anything, cast Lesser Demon Summoning inside the summoning circle, with all of the proper precautions in place . Talk to whatever appears, try to work out a deal with it.

"Lefs, are you sure that reading is what you should be doing right now? Your hand got blown off just moments ago."
"What else should I do?"

Once again, convert one iron bar into steel, then combine two steel bars into a walking stick shape.

Due to a lot of trouble I've had in real life recently (mostly caused by myself) all of my games except You are Dungeon shall be going on a possibly permanent hiatus for awhile until I get myself situated.
