Personally, I think 24 hours. Time zones are things, and Felissan, according to his profile, lives in France.

If we did, +1, but I think they either got scrambled by the tractor beam or got blown out into space.

((There goes my fake plans to brute force figure out which variant of Ignis Diabolis creates the fun stuff.))

Please stop wasting our turns with no warning in a competitive game. It's really not fun. I -thought- it would be an amusing flavor text change to use Falfoy wealth to get tutored on a spell, rather than turns and turns of of "study to learn [spell]. Learn [spell] from a teacher."

Learn an illusion spell to create bright light.
Study a curse spell with a longer incantation.

i'm very sorry, but if you could get an advantage by just giving yourself a funny name, that would be even more unfair. If you had a backstory than that might be fair. But you can get a extra normal action this turn.
