Continue fishing and thinking about how I can improve my blacksmithing.

((Thanks for the buff, Transcendant))

+1 Health, +1 Mana

Find some charcoal, then see about finding a familiar. I want a bear.

Daytime 3: Rainy (6 Turns remain)

Trip the skeleton, get it down to the ground, grapple its limbs off.
3 You manage to trip the skeleton to the ground, but it easily resists your grapple. It still took a bit of damage and wasted its turn getting back up.
-1 Hunger. Combat Rank 2: 4/20 EXP. Fighting Skeleton: 8/10 Health

Cast Bless, targeting myself and two others: Beirus, and Oceansoul? Then Meditate on Spirit Magic.
3 You cast a simple Bless spell for you and your friends Arsintoile and Billy Bob. It will take effect for the next action, whether it be yours or theirs. You then meditate.
-1 Mana. Spirit Magic Rank 2: 18/20 EXP. Gain Status: Blessed (1 Turn)

Continue trying to combine magic. I'd really like it if I can get a Zone of Control Animals or some such effect.
1 Your spell sparks and you accidentally summon a monster instead of learning how to control them. A winged cat pounces on you.
-1 Health, Mana halved. Fighting Winged Cat: 10/10 Health

Keep hunting.
3+1 After searching for a bit, you find and kill another deer. -1 Hunger. You obtain Deer Meat x3. Hunting Rank 1: 7/15 EXP.

let's go look for them then, and enjoy the rain against my fur.
2 It is extremely quiet here... it's almost scary how quiet it is. Dead statue eyes stare at you endlessly. Nobody's home... for now. -1 Hunger.

Bound with my companion in the rain
4 Your wolf dances happily with you in the rain. You feel closer to your animal companion. +1 Bond with Wolf.

Continue fishing and thinking about how I can improve my blacksmithing.
3+1 You fish and think about working your forge whilst doing so. -1 Hunger. You obtain Fish x4. Fishing Rank 1: 7/15 EXP. Blacksmithing Rank 1: 3/15 EXP.

+1 Health, +1 Mana
Find some charcoal, then see about finding a familiar. I want a bear.

3 You get some charcoal and try the spell on a nearby bear. It doesn't seem to notice you, and you realize that bears must be more advanced than the 'Simple' disclaimer in your current spell. You still have the Charcoal, but you wasted the mana. At least it gave you some experience and knowledge. Your friend Wren calls you over and after they cast a spell, you feel a bit different.
-1 Mana. You obtain Charcoal x1. Spirit Magic Rank 1: 7/15 EXP. Gain Status: Blessed (1 Turn)

> Rest until I get better.
> Then attempt to uncover the secrets of biology/evolution/mutation.
6 You sleep, and in your sleep you dream. The word science crumbles to dust underneath a much larger word: Magic. Science may explain evolution and biology, but with everything that has happened lately with monsters appearing and the world collapsing, you think science kind of fell out of popularity. You feel inspired by these ideas, and instead learn about the magics that have something to do with biology and mutations.
-2 Hunger, Mana replenished. Gain Skills: Earth Magic Rank 0 and Transmutation Magic Rank 0.

Charm Monsters for 2 mana. If it fails, fight defensively.

Fish just a bit more, and contemplate the nature of heat. Namely, hot air.

Mediate on spirit magic, then practice basic combat drills?

I'd like to not die the moment I get into combat at some point in the future. Clerics aren't completely defenseless after all. Still very focused on the healing, nature magic thing.

Sorry for taking a while to post again. Noticing that some others aren't posting in the thread recently either. Might consider inviting those on waitlist to play instead.
Please keep in mind that a player can only have one Familiar and/or one Animal Companion at a time.

Day 3: Rainy (5 Turns Remain)

Charm Monsters for 2 mana. If it fails, fight defensively.
5 You cast a spell to charm the cat, and it seems to work as the beast settles down... for the time being, at least.
-2 Mana. Enchantment Magic Rank 2: 7/20 EXP. Winged Cat: Charmed (3 Turns)

Fish just a bit more, and contemplate the nature of heat. Namely, hot air.
2+1 You fish just a bit more, catching only one fish. You think about hot air, and learn a little bit about heat and air. It takes some time.
-2 Hunger. You obtain Fish x1. Fishing Rank 1: 9/15 EXP. Fire Magic Rank 0: 2/10 EXP. Skill Unlocked: Air Magic Rank 0. Next Rank: 0/10 EXP. Spells: None yet.

Try to develop a more advanced version of find simple familiar to use on the bear.
4+1 You successfully develop the spell. Now one just needs to cast it. Spirit Magic Rank 1: 12/15 EXP. Find Advanced Familiar (3 Mana, Charcoal, 1 Use Only)

Mediate on spirit magic, then practice basic combat drills?
2+1 You meditate and practice combat successfully. It takes a lot of time, though. -2 Hunger. Skill Unlocked: Combat Rank 0. Next Rank: 0/10 EXP.
Spirit Magic Level Up! Choose one: +1 Maximum Health, +1 Maximum Hunger, +1 Maximum Mana or Learn New Spirit Magic.


Head back to my cave, build an oven using stonemold and cook all the meat.
3+1 You make an oven and cook all the meat in it. -3 Mana, -1 Hunger. -1 Charcoal. All meat cooked. Earth Magic Rank 0: 8/10 EXP. Cooking Rank 1: 4/15 EXP

> Meditate on transmutation magic.
4 You gain some inspiration. -1 Hunger. Transmutation Magic Rank 0. Next Rank: 4/10 EXP. Gain Spell: Shape Object (1 Mana*)
*Can cost more mana depending on the object one wants to shape. Assume 1 Mana for smaller items.

Jumping knee the skeleton in the face.
2+1 Interestingly, this seems to be very effective. Perhaps bashing the skeleton is a good way to damage it? -1 Hunger. Combat Rank 2: 6/20 EXP. Fighting Skeleton: 7/10 Health

Look for something interesting nearby. If I find nothing, practice magic on those statues I saw.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.
