Anulus Connectens: Magi of Hermes Covenant

I've updated, because I had organized everything for Andreva's final character sheet it was not a particularly onerous task.

Edit: Realizing that I'd already done much of the work, I went ahead and copied over Hector's as well. Darkwing, I hope you don't mind. (Yikes, we're at 58 pages with 2 magi still to go).

Since we haven't heard from ROF for a while, I think I might have to cut and paste from the thread about Saorise (sp?). I can't recall whether the spells and devices were written up as ArM standard, but it shouldn't be too hard.

Thank you.

I'll have a look at it :slight_smile:

If we can't get a hold of him shold we finish the character through 90? Just one or two ideas from each of us would be plenty.

He is quite local for Tellus and myself. ALthough I don't actually play in a group with him anymore Tellus might run into him?

Otherwise I think it's doable to come up with soem ideas. But didn't Tellus stop developing Basuas at +75 ? So not all magi are up to year 90 anyway.

How about that Tellus? Is there any chance that you could bring Bausas to +90? Or are you not at all interested?

I could take a look at him again. All ideas are welcome and will be considered.

I just did a few minutes of looking, I should have some more ideas later but these are my first thoughts about the intersection of Bausas' abilities, goals, and situaion.

He has a bunch of healing rituals, he could develop some non ritual healing spells with sun duration to use when he doesn't have time to do a ritual (of course he already has cessation of suffering which does a similar thing).

He could learn an arcane tunnel that has sufficent capcity and duration that he can cast healing rituals through it, after all Janus is developing magics to track redcap health and we've got a ship sailing for arcadia in the north African desert. (He already has leap of homecomming which would accomplish the same task for the ship, which I'd presume we'd AC's for but if not the arcane tunnel spell, perhaps a seven league teleport spell so that he can quickly get to locations he doesn't have an AC for.)

We had discussed something like this in the thread, but how about some way to monitor nearby towns for the presence of disease and some target boundary spells to eliminate disease when it is detected.

Thinking about the ship again would a spell to prevent seasickness at duration moon be lower than level 30 (so it does not warp)? or how about a device that ameliorates the effects of seasickness, can that be level 29 or less?

Planning for investigation of the enigma considering the path of the body, how about a spell that creates in Bausas' imagination (imagination in the sense described in Art and Academe) a depiction of his own mind and another spell that creates a depiction of his body, then he could observe how perterbations of one influence the other. Or, he could make them at range touch and run experiments on someone else's body and mind. I think that this sort of real time VR display of conditions would serve as a realia (from covenants) for investigating the path of the body.

His Creo mentem total is excellent and he's soft hearted and worried about apt actions. He could make a Creo mentem spell (or two) to prevent the onset of violence, by creating incnveinient thoughts or emotions in the targets. (I can think of several ways to do it, I don't want to push you in any specific direction).

Ooooh, excellent suggestions, thank you!
I'll have to ruminate on those for a bit :slight_smile:

I had actually begone work on the last 15 years. Excellent.

Also: do we have a labtext for a decent level Intangible Tunnel-style spell?

Yes.
Janus invented Minute of Reckoning at levels 5,10,20,30 and 50

Meh, I'll need a The Cursèd Day to cast a ritual :-/

Saoirse has a lvl 20 Intangible Tunnel andJanus has lvl 20 Monthly Maintenance of the DemandingSpell, is that enough?
In retrospect Janus really should have invented the D Conc rather than Diam considering he has that spell to extend it

A level 50 The Cursèd Day would allow Bausas to cast a level 45 spell through it, and it only took 2 seasons to invent, so that was fine.

I'm in the proces of copying ROF's spells and devices into the document. It's going to take some work, since there are a few design flaws and things aren't quite written in the correct format.

In the document things are sorted between Spells, Devices etc. and in each category they are divided by Form but in no particular order after that. Eventually I'll also sort it by Technique, level and alphabetically

I think that I had everything sorted by technique then level then alphabetically by the time I finished adding in Hector.

Great, then it won't take that long to put the rest in order.

Right now I have all of Saoirsé's spells and devices in the document, plus a handful of Janus' devices from year 61-75 which I had forgotten and my text file somehow had omitted - nice things for the ship (Aq, Au, He)
And things should be sorted by first type, then form, technique, level, title respectively.

At some point we'll have to find out how to make this collated list available for the Forum users...it's going to be a loooong post! It's a 62 page google doc, and Bausas' stuff isnøt even in there yet, nor year +76-90 for Saoirsé

Feel free to put it in there :wink:

.... though I'm still not done with the last few years.

You wouldn't happen to have a nice text file with it?
