Chapter 2h (Spring 1228): Preparing the Covenant's Defenses

[OOC: Might 10 - his stats are here: https://forum.atlas-games.com/t/companion-character-sheets/5241/1

I see Fray only has a Penetration of 1 (with no speciality), so that probably is going to be difficult to get through, even with an arcane connection, especially as a positive aura will also boost Alcimus' magic resistance, making it counterproductive.]

"Hmm." Gregorius thinks for a few moments. "It's a bit risky, but how is both of you's Perdo Vim? Could you manage to penetrate on a spell to suppress his Might briefly?"

[OOC: Relative guideline is on page 63 of The Contested Isle. Dispel Magic Resistance from a Might score aligned to one realm with a level less than or equal to the level of the Vim spell plus 20 + stress die (no botch). Spell must penetrate the Vim based magic resistance of the target. Suppression only lasts for the duration of the spell, and the magic resistance returns afterwards.

I'm pretty sure "level" should read "base level", so we just need to penetrate on a base 1 + 1 Touch + 0/1 Momentary/Concentration spell = level 2/3. We want to do it in the lowest aura available (which I think is 1 without a lot of travelling), so we're trying to penetrate an 11 Magic resistance, meaning we need a Perdo Vim casting total beforew division of 26 or 28 if we don't use arcane connections. That's probably just within what Stephen can do?]
