Session 8 Downtime

by Locke

The Train Trip


Locke brings a huge trunk of books and research material with him on the journey, because he intends to use the time to reacquaint himself with the research that he was doing into divination, and specifically the Appurtenance "With a Divinatory Deck" before the War.
 
Because of the importance of this research material, Locke considers it important to have an assistant who can take care of it in his absence. Thus, he takes a couple of days to Gnaw his way through the different spells and rituals necessary for creating a competent Thoughtform (Thoughtform Creation at level 5, increase level by 5 with Magnify Spells, increase level by 1 with Silver Thumb, increase level by 2 with Magical Heterodyne, thus creating a level 10 Thoughtform).
 

New Arcs



  • Finish a Great Work (Mastering My Appurtenance) -- Before the War, Locke was working on the With a Divinatory Deck appurtenance. He's reached the point where he's ready to pick this up again (and in fact) go deep into it.
  • Discovery (Hacking the Divinatory Deck) -- I believe that there are inconsistencies in the underlying rules of reality in interaction between divination and randomality. (I am going to create a secret which is like Belomancy, but not as stupid.)

 

New Learning


 

  • Learn the level 3 spell, Magical Heterodyne
  • Learn the level 1 character secret, Witness the Potential
  • Learn the sign, Sign Against Unwanted Influence
  • Learn the Appurtenance, With a Divinatory Deck -- note, crux spent already but will learn this in game
