Abe's Questions

Interesting thought. Probably easier to enchant a CrAq effect into the wineskin.

If you mean - as an example - the helmet grows spikes on the inside - then you could use CrTe to grow spikes or ReTe to change the shape so that it has spikes, both doing damage.

sort of,the object was to melt the armor with exreme heat thus damaging enemies and then reforming the armor intack off of the enemy.

heres a question for everybody-what spell have you fine people created that ONLY uses light?

None whatsoever. Vis always come from somewhere. At best, you can extract Vim vis from an aura as a lab activity that takes a season. But again, you need to have an aura to get the vis from.

Charged item with a Creo Aquam effect. The details are left as an exercise to the reader.

There are online resources that will list the powers that were attributed to various crystals and gemstones in folklore. Google is your friend.

Thanks for the exercise, Fruny :smiley: I guees there's two ways go about this (and probably more...) either CrAq or MuAq (Te req).

If you use CrAq I would argue that the said water might cuench you thirst here and now but wouldn't provide any permanent "hydration", lacking Vis, and as the spell dessipates the drinker would be left with a tremendous thirst... This doesn't only barr you from using this magic as a ready source of water - it also leaves you with a wicked road to off people.... Entertain you target on such water for a while before a longer journey in dry terrain and wave them off with heartily smiles...

If you use MuAq you simply turn real water into powder for the time dictated by the spell (or the enchantments in an item) and lift the spell when you need it as water. As this isn't water "created" by magic there shouldn't be any issue with the actual quenching of it.

And maybe you could add some Muto to hasten the melting effect?

That's nothing but Creo Ignem....

OooooOohh yes - and what a friend it is :exclamation: (but alas when you've got a whole patient forum off dogooders and helpfull peers... :laughing: )

how about creating crystals for scying effects?

crop circles?
they had them in meadeival times?(in woodcarvings they had the devil making them) :confused:

"scying" ?

As for crop circles, you're again about 400 years too early. But at least, that's closer in theme. Go for it! :smiley:

So, yes, it is possible that, in Mythic Europe, the Devil creates crop circles.

thanks you!
this probibly would cause consternation among the church folk though!
flaw question-what would be the effect(Point & otherwise)of having a tin ear?

scying is the art of looking at long discansise by way of magic.
on a different not what would be the closest thing in meadival times to disco?

how would animentals be handled?(a animental is a elemental with a animal spirit possing it)

what would be the forms & bonuses for books?(any type)
how about the various animals not covered in the canon?

what would be the sort of drinks(non-alcoholic only,alcholic drinks have been covered already)did meadival people drink?

what sort of sheilds would the magi use and what sort of enchantments would they put into them?

Would probably count as a disfigurement. Beyond that, it's up to you.

Ah, you mean scrying (and distances). A crystal, mirror or other reflecting surface like a bowl of water could probably provide a bonus.

Please, try to be more careful with your spelling (there are online dictionaries you can use), your posts are sometimes undecipherable, and your rather weird ideas prevent us (well, at the very least, prevents me) from trying to guess what you mean.

There is such a gap in time and genres that the question isn't really meaningful. There are modern groups that supposedly play medieval music. Seek them and hear for yourself.

Did you make that up or are they drawn from another game?

Elementals already count (in my book) as spirits, so they couldn't really be possessed by other spirits, animal or not. Even then, a non-sentient elemental would be handled like any other: using the form of its element. So a "fire kitten" would be Ignem, just like a "fire humanoid".

Probably a bonus to affect the text within, e.g. disguising it as gibberish or making it invisible. A bonus to display images on the pages, etc.

The forms required to affect a book depend on what the book is made of. Animal, Herbam, Terram, Aquam (for the ink), or even ... Corpus could work.

Depends on the animal.

Depends on the region/country.

First of all they often did drink alcohol - not only because it was nutritious but because it was made safer due to the brewing process than many other beverages. Also remember that actual distilling of strong alcohol was a very recent novelty in Europe making alcohol primarily various wines and meads.

But what else would they have been drinking:

Water (But water often had quite such a low quality that it was cut with wine or ale anyway in an attempt to make it safer (& better tasting), Various milks, Barley Tea, Dancha, Sage Water, Coriander water, Granatus, Sekanjabin, Clarea of Water, Rose Soda (Water) and Lavendar Drink, Cold Almond Milk, Chicory Water, lemon drink, and all of the varieties of apple ciders

Abe is a bot. This isn't warranted by his bad spellig or syntax;heck we all have to start somewhere and still have continued mispells - we the unlucky ones who weren't born with the linga franca of the modern world as our native tongue. What then has warrented my suspicion in this regard? Considering the following:

A) Abe's unwillingness, or the bot's inability, to enter into meaningful dialogue with the people constantly trying to help and answer him - often not even gracing them with a polite reply,
B) Abe's unwillingness, or the bot's inability, to try to grasp the slightest part of the basic defining factors of the Mythic Europe setting,
C) Abe's insistent volley of posts force-feeding D20 concepts and downright titles into the ME setting.

I knew everybody was talking about the growing hegemony of D20 (even sneaking into Glastonbury) but always took it as paranoia - but now I've been brutaly awakened! Wouldn't surprise me if it is Steve Jackson or the Wizards who are the evil masterminds who engineered this bot to make a breach into one of the strongholds of not-D20...

And if all the other annoying bots hadn't been present on this forum I might never had sniffed them out. Soon I fret - we all might be weakened enough to only post in D20 syntax.... ooh I already feel quesy... Knock oooh my go.... Magic Missile ops mind mind seems to be sli missed my Saving Throw help me please.... help me... find a cleric to Bless me :cry:

Disclaimer: sorry for any angerment aroused - if you d31m0z laid claim on unlucky days - I might be intitled to having a ironic/rude day... :blush:

I did not lay claim to Unlucky Daysize=75[/size]... I laid claim to Stupid Daysize=75[/size].

Go ahead and nick Ironyrude Daysize=75[/size]. :laughing:

Somebody needs ta do it, ey?

sorry,spelling is not my strong suit & I only can access the internet at the liabarary(I think that's how you spell it,will try to correct it later)
also I mean well.
on a related note(animentals,I meant elements possessed by the spirits of dead animals.
