(Jav, Sword, and Shield are just the first three things I could think of, the armory is obviously a lot bigger than just those ;D )

Head to the library and look for anything that might help decode the note. Either a book on encryption, or a more magical method of solving it.

Move healing goop inside robe so I don't appear TOO out of place. Tighten hood and try to find something that will help me.

Hiraluke
The instructor apparently is still busy, so you go observe the fyoras. (1) You get a fireball in the chest for your trouble.
Status: Somewhat Burnt Robe

Derm
(3+ 1 for Well Hidden) You aren't truely noticed as you reverse your robe. (4) You find a book on transformations. Its for creating Thahd Shades out of normal thadhs, though, not chaging you back. You read it anyway, and (5) surprisingly, its understandable even with your lack of knowledge. Skill Get!
Status: Divine Undead
Skills: Shaper Knowledge: Transform thahd to thadh shade
Other: Inverted Undead, Shaper Wrath Elicitor, Powered by Healing, Buffed by Healing
Inventory: Shadifying of Thadhs

Dragnar
(1) You are attacked by another rogue on your way. This one is a thadh, and punches you into the wall. (2) You are barely conscious and in major pain. Aid Center is nearby, or at least some kind of red and white sign, its really hard to focus.
Status: barely conscious and in major pain

Griffin
"Well, ok then, get to work with this shield, then" Com. Alzon says, and runs off to talk to someone else. (5) You haven't forgotten about this, either. awesome. (6-1) If you aren't tired yet, why stop? *THOONK*
Status: Tired, but impressed.
Skills: Guardian: Swordsman I, Shields I
Inventory: Training Sword & Shield

Sorus
(1) You don't find anything useful about the sleeve essence.

Codex
(6) You find a Wand of Firebolt on your way up! You find the Agent instructor, as expected, and produce everything listed. "Well, it looks like we actually have a possible Agent here. You are now worth a small fragment of my time, so I will teach you something to day, and something tomorrow. After that, you will have to prove yourself again, or learn on your own. So, which first: Stealth, Wand Use, Mechanics, or Daggers?

Attempt to try to make a plausible human reverse-equivalent of the spell in an out of the way location.

That is going to be seriously hard without knowledge of how to actually Shape.

Scratch that: Find a book on 'spellcasting/shaping for beginner through intermediates'

I am the luckiest bastard alive. I have stolen all of Dragnar's luck. All of it.

Ask Thunkor whats up with the skirmish system. That shouldn't take too long, so after that get some R+R by spending some time in the commons rooms, and try to befriend Shapers and Agents if at all possible, so I have potential allies in all three of the main schools.

Dragnar
(4) You reach the red and white thing, and hear someone saying something like "you blook nike...a bwal beye a thab" You give a thumbs up to thats and are lifted into something bed-like. Much pain follows, but it seems helpful.
Status: Not Dead! (Out of action for two turns)

Hiraluke
(1) The fyora hits you thrice more, leaving a scorchmark scar in the middle of your back and leaves the bottom half of your robe hanging by a few threads. You aren't too hurt yet though, so you eventually make it to the library and (1) accidentally knock a fourth of the shelf on your right foot, crushing it. You painfully hobble over to the Aid Center, seeing a very wrecked Agent apprentice in the back as you get your foot casted and then told to go find a healing pool to dip it in.
Status: In pain, in need of a new robe.
Inventory addition: Cast on right foot.

Griffin
"The Skirmish thing? Eh, its just live practice. Like using a bandit invasion as a live-fire exercise for your towns trainee archers. Not that hard."
(3) You make a friend in each other third of the school.

Codex
You learn mechanics (4) Decently well for a first try. What will be the second subject?
Skills: Agent: Mechanics I
Inventory: 5 Living tolls, 1 wand of firebolt (12/12), 1 dagger.

Derm
(2) You do not find the book.
Later...
(2-1) You forgot what section it should be in.
Later still...
(3-2) Ack!

Sorus
You walk around a bit and (6) Find a Wand of Firebolt +1!
