[Marko_Markoko]

Rodrigo mysteriously developed the Gentle Gift at age 47, and since he was already a Magus, he just continued on from that point onward and taught himself as he went (with the assistance of friends that provided some training). This leads to an unusual development pattern. I initially develop him as a Redcap, gauntleted at age 25 then advanced to age 53 as a Redcap with two free seasons per year. Then at age 53 I swap Redcap for Gentle Gift. He winds up turning all of his Redcap magic items over to his non-gifted brethren. His equivalent free House Virtue is Well Traveled, a holdover from Redcap. He had a Lab Total 50 Longevity Potion ever since he turned 35.
I had him start out with a total of only seven points of Virtues & Flaws. One of these was Latent Magic, which I swap for Puissant Parma Magica when his Gift opens (he began exhibiting magic resistance just before his Gift manifested, he thought it was a new Supernatural Ability). He had the Close Family Ties Flaw when he was younger, but his family has grown up and moved away. Florenzo doesn’t count . So I swap that for Lost Love, because he misses his dead wife. I then give him three points of Hermetic Flaws; Difficult Spontaneous Magic, Weak Magic, and Weak Parens (representing is suboptimal training conditions). Then he gains Hermetic Prestige and Famous because of his miracle, and Puissant Creo comes along with his Gift as well.
Balancing out at 10 points, I then give him 180 experience points and 90 levels of spells over the next fifteen years. This equals any other magus with the Weak Parens Flaw from the time their Arts are opened until their Gauntlet. This represents his learning to use his newfound powers with assistance from his sodales, while maintaining all outward appearances as to being a fully competent magus. I then advance him twenty years, from age 68 to age 88, using the normal house rules for advancement (40xp/year or lab work). The breakdown of the use of this time is as follows; 8 Years for xps, 1 Year to create & refine lab, 6 Years for spells, and 5 Years for more xps. During this time, I gave him several Twilight Episodes. The first made him Twilight Prone, then he gained some knowledge and lost some knowledge, and also acquired Mercurian Magic. At the end of development, he had an episode with severe consequences. He severely botched the comprehension roll and has spent the past eight years in a Twilight Episode (7 + a stress die). Those years don’t require aging rolls, but they do affect aging for his next roll (at age 96). He also gained the Weak Spontaneous Magic Flaw.

  The Phoenix Sword The Phoenix Sword is one of the artifacts of Andorra dating back to the earliest era. It is an exquisite quality weapon with numerous magical powers. It protects the wielder from flame, is itself immune to heat of any severity, and can ignite as a flaming sword. It has other flame related powers, but what is most interesting is that it has the power to heal. The sword was supposedly crafted by the legendary Valdarius, and it is an Item of Quality granting a +4 to Attack Rolls (harm human and animal bodies). The blade is made of Toledo Steel with a red tint, with a gold plated cross-guard and hilt. The pommel is shaped like the head of a bird of prey and the cross-guard resembles fanned out wings. A fiery ruby is embedded in the crux.

Background: Moses (Moe) is the oldest member of the Andorran Guard. He is a grizzled veteran, has seen magi come and go, and has seen his friends die in battle and from age. He has accumulated a lot of warping because he has been on longevity for over half of his life, but also a great deal from the supernatural encounters he has faced.
Though he was originally a Grog, Moe has since progressed to the status of a Companion. To that effect, he has been upgraded as such with the addition of two Minor Virtues & Flaws. As an Andorran Guard, I have equipped him with a number of levels of Magic Items up to no more than his chronological age.
Moe Acquired the Minor Flaws of Dutybound and Higher Purpose plus Second Sight from Warping, as per the standard rules. During the two part Magic Realm Adventure of “Light of Burning Bronze and Taglyn” he gained 5xp, plus 25 pawns of vis used for Transformation, giving him the Major Virtue of Charmed Life and the Minor Flaw of Heroic Personality. Finally, to quickly update him, I gave him the standard 20xp/year (or 5xp/season) as per the House Rule for non-magi.
A side note on the Ability Block Minor Flaw; though prohibited from learning most Educated Abilites (such as Artes Liberales), he is still able to learn the Latin Language since it is in such common use in the Order (for him, Hermetic Latin counts as a “Living Language” for all intents). This means he still cannot ever learn to read and write, and his use of Latin consist of mainly Vulgar words and expressions.

Background: Alexandro is the eldest of Antonio’s two children, and though he is the most like his father in many ways, he did not inherit the Gift or any supernatural traits at all. His mother is Gabriella Gomez, daughter of Pedro Gomez Senior. Alexandro was raised at the covenant, but he did not lead a sheltered life. He received a thorough education, spent time with his uncle in Castile, and has traveled abroad in Italy, France, and England. Though he resents his father’s infidelity towards his mother, he does respect him and he loves his half-sister dearly.

Background: Carlos was a street urchin and a rogue, who took up the profession of a mercenary soldier at a young age. However low his life has been, fortune has always smiled upon him and carried him on in his rapscallion lifestyle. As a soldier, he was a perpetrator of and participator sorts many of the regular sorts of camp vices, such as gambling and drinking. At the battle of Las Navas, his entire unit was nearly wiped out. He and two others survived, and they died shortly thereafter (one from his wounds and another from later misfortune). It was shortly thereafter that Carlos was recruited as a custos by Andorra. Since then he has seen various strange things and learned something about the ways of the wizards. Among other adventures, he was part of the expeditions to Val Negra and to the Palace of Burning Brass

Powers:
Donning the Corporeal Veil: 0 points, Init +1, Corpus
R: Personal, D: Constant, T: Ind
Roger materializes in ideal form as he was just before death, dressed and equipped exactly the same. These are not the actual items, for the sword was given to Javier and his body buries in his armour. The magic is active only while manifesting, thus the material body is not subject to normal magic resistance. Killing the corporeal form does not destroy Roger. Roger is a ghost. He is already dead.
Cr(Re)Co(Te)30 (Base 5, +3 Constant, +2 Requisites); Greater Power (30 levels, -3 cost, +3 Init)

ReCo15 (Base 15); Personal Power (15 levels, -2 cost, Fast Cast)

Sword of the Avenger:0 Points, Init +1, Ignem
R: Touch, D: Constant, T: Ind
This power has two effects. If Roger is corporally manifested, a sword materializes as well, and with this power the sword blade is ignited to inflict double damage.

Background: Roger was born and raised in a covenant in Normandy, and was trained as an elite custos. When that covenant fell (it was in Winter), he was recruited by the Mercere as a Shield Grog for Redcaps. That in turn led him to the Mercere Quarter of Andorra, and he was recruited by Rodrigo for the Red Guard. After a few years, he transferred to the regular guard. When his comrade Ricardo fell in battle at , it was given to Roger who fought at his side and avenged him. Roger was a member of the Val Negra expedition, and he died saving the life of a child in Perdut when Metron blew up the guest house with the portal. Because of the powerful magical forces of the Magic Realm, Roger became a sentient ghost. The child was the same one that Octavian had rescued, the child has the Gift, and thus it is destiny that the child shall one date come Octavian’s apprentice. Roger is the boy’s Ghostly Warder, but to Roger the child is his Dependant.

Background: Javier is Alexandro’s nephew, the son of his wife’s older brother. He served a tour of duty with the Almogavers of Catalan and has seen several minor battles. He joined the Andorran Guard several years ago, and has formed deep bonds with his band of brothers. He feels that he has found his true life’s calling.
Javier has been several adventures over the past few years. He was part of the expedition to Val Negra; was a member of Inigo’s, Dimir Taar’s, and Carmen’s hunting party during the Drake Hunt; and most recently was a member of the mission to rescue Carmen from the Palace of Burning Bronze.
During the expedition to Val Negra, when the magi battled Metron in Perdut, Javier earned notice by Octavian for being stalwart and dutiful. Javier also holds one of the most prized magical items of the Andorran Guard, the Sword of the Avenger. When Metron blew up the cottage with the portal to Barcelona, Roger gave his life rescuing a child. The sword thus has passed on from Roger to Javier, carrying on a long tradition of the Andorran Guard.

Background: Father Clemente Gonzoles was a Knight Templar who met Antonio many years ago when the two cooperated to overcome Infernal forces that tormented a small village in Andalusia. Over the years, the two had reoccurring encounters dealing with common interests. He was eventually ordained as a Brother Chaplin, and later by special dispensation of the Grand Master, he left his order to become the parish priest of Arans. He still has connections with the Templars, and they can call on him for favors at any time. He has Social Contacts with various Iberian crusaders, mainly with the Templars, but also with other orders such as the Knights of Santiago and the Knights of Calatrava. The Covenant owns the church and cottage, and had some influence in determining who their local priest was. The Templars have had interactions with the magi before, and granted dispensation to Clemente so they could have good relations with a Hermetic covenant.

[Andrew_Gronosky]

Esteban is the son of a knight (a caballero hidalgo) who was born with the Gentle Gift. On the advice of his maternal grandmother, a soothsayer, he left home at the age of 15 to seek apprenticeship under the wizard Theophilus of Jerbiton. It is not often that an apprentice comes knocking at a magus's door so Theophilus accepted despite Esteban's age and his mundane outlook. Esteban's father disinherited him for consorting with wizards and has been trying ever since, by fair means or foul, to get Esteban to give up magic.

After apprenticeship, Esteban sought out his father's old comrades-in-arms, the caballeros villanos from who he had learned to fight and to fight (and to drink and to wench). The commoner-knights were more accepting of Esteban's magic -- it was occasionally useful in battle. Esteban spent several years as a soldier of fortune, and also worked as a maker of enchanted items for a couple of noble patrons. After a bad encounter (and Wizard's War) with a rival wizard who provoked the wrath of a bishop for overt magic use, Esteban has developed a passion for trying to improve relations between the Order and mundanes.

[size=150]Quaesitor Laetitia filia Iudicium scholae Guernicus, Advocata ab Magvillus[/size]

Laetitia comes from a dynastic family of Guernici who trace their lineage to the Founder himself. Due to the prestige of the blood relation, it is a LARGE family, obsessed with maintaining the line. As only precious few are Gifted, the rest are brought into the service of Magvillus according to their strengths.

The eighth child of Iudicium Guernici, Laetitia was marked for great things when her Gift manifested in infancy. However, the more the young girl read about the Order's history, the more obsessed she became with the Founder's original intent in framing the Code. The budding apprentice quickly established her position as a passionately devoted Traditionalist. To say that her strongly Transitionalist father was disappointed would be a drastic understatement.

As the Transitionalists gained more and more power over the House, Iudicium and his mother Iustitia found more and more excuses to distance themselves and their family from the bright-eyed idealist. Upon her gauntlet, Laetitia was assigned a sanctum well beneath Magvillus, in an old network of caves used by the Terrae for rituals. Luckily, the ever-optimistic girl discovered a knack for Terram, and was mentored in the Terrae cult by her sanctum neighbour, Moebius. Upon earning her Quaesitorial certification, she was assigned to duties acting as an advocate to those magi who could not represent themselves in Tribunals and could not afford to hire the services of a Guernicus. This assignment was intended as a punishment, but the passionate young Traditionalist loves her work, and has spent a great deal of time travelling through various Tribunals to defend other magi's privacy and freedom against heavy-handed application of the Peripheral Code. She carries a fixed arcane connection to her sanctum beneath Magvillus, and within her sanctum she keeps fixed arcane connections to Durenmar, Coeris, and Blackthorn.

Laetitia still enjoys a close bond with her friend and mentor, Moebius, with whom she is secretly working to uncover the Founder's lost library. The ancient Guernicus is so close to Final Twilight that he hardly ever uses Hermetic magic anymore. However, he uses his academic skills to research old texts and tomes for leads, which he then passes along to his more youthful and energetic colleague.

(Design note: For purposes of Study Bonus, I assumed that the average source quality was 10. Partly because it seemed about average, but mostly because it's a good round number that made the arithmetic easy. Though for the arts scores that are at 5 I just counted them as a single season's worth of study at source quality 13.)

Wizard's Sigil: Peacefulness. In human targets, this manifests as a sense of well-being and contentedness; Imaginem effects with an audible species always sound in harmony.

Thick black hair, usually clasped in a golden circlet with a single opal at the brow. Warm, amber coloured eyes that sparkle when she smiles.

Siana of Magvillus, Scout

Daughter of Fflur of Merinita and Marcus, the Magvillus turb's unwitting archery captain, 8-year-old Siana was abandoned at Marcus' doorstep when she failed to manifest a Gift. Having always wanted a family, Marcus taught his daughter all he knew, and trained her to be his replacement. However, the girl is not only a terrible trainer, but she had also inherited a sense of wanderlust from her whimsical mother, and has never settled down.

While exploring the area around Magvillus in bear form, Siana became fast friends with Rhadamanthus, who does not judge her based on her unfeminine activities, or on her strange fae nature. Through him, she has become friends with Laetitia of Guernicus, with whom she now travels Europe as a bodyguard and confidante. Despite the differences in their personalities, the two have much in common, from their similar experiences of living with their respective fathers' disappointment, and the feeling of never quite feeling comfortable in public places.

Holl, Spirit of the Great Oak
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Servant of Saturn +3
Resources: Master of Herbam, Converse with Plant and Tree
Holl is a powerful (Might 25) flora (spirit of a plant) Propolos encountered in a forest in the Rhine tribunal. Like Propolos, Holl sees himself as a servant of the powers of magic, specifically of Satrun and his dominion over fate. He feels his fate and Propolos’ are intertwined, and hence would aid him occasionally.

Akala, Spirit of Fire
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Friend in Adventure +1
Resources: Spark of Fire (B15, +1 touch)
Akala is a mediocre (Might 15) Spirit of Fire, burning with curiosity and a sense of adventure. He longs to see new places and, especially - to set them on fire.

Gidan, Son of Harz
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Descendants of Gaia +1
Resources: Master of Earth, Crafter of Earth
Gidan is a (Might 20) genius locus, the living spirit of the Gidan mountain which lies at the foothills of the Harz mountain range. He thinks well of Propolos’ allegiance to the raw powers of Earth, the ancient Titans that form the bones of the world, and owes Propolos favors for services rendered.

Tinkel, Spirit of Curiosity
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Friends in Adventure +1
Resources: Posing the Silent Question (B15 +1 touch), Sight of the Transparant Motive (B5 +1 touch)
Tinkel is a spirit of curiosity Propolos found lurking around Tinkerela, once of the young covenfolk of Triamore. It is an intense (Might 20) eidolon, that was only happy to have Propolos summon him to poke around the minds of strange and foreign people.

Umbra, Spirit of Death
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Servant of the Gods +2
Resources: Whispers Through the Black Gate InCo 15, Physician’s Eye InCo 5
Umbra is a somber (Might 15) spirit of death that Propolos had the misfortune of meeting in one of his adventures, after a grog died. He was able to convince her they were both serving the gods, and Umbra would be willing to lend this fellow servant of Magic a helping hand now and then. She is reluctant to use her Whispers Through the Black Gate power, however, seeing its use as a breach of professional etiquette.

Telos, Spirit of Disaster
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minro Flaw)
Bond: Opportunity for Mischief +1
Resources: Tumbling Rocks 5 (B2, +1 stone, +1 touch, +1 conc)
Telos is a lesser (Might 5) spirit of a rock that Propolos found at the bottom of a ravine, with a human skeleton trapped beneath it. He is a malicious spirit that takes pleasure in pushing rocks out of cliffs and onto people below.

Corona, the Bright Spirit
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Fighting the Darkness +2
Resources: Spark of Sunshine CrIg 10 (B5, +1 conc)
Corona is a spirit of the color (species) white that Propolos found on a particularly shiny day. Although week (Might 10), it has an inflated view of itself as a great warrior against the “powers of darkness”, and was easily swayed by Propolos’ rhetoric to join him as an ally in his own struggles for the ancient gods.

Snapir, A Fishy Spirit
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Friend of the Matron +1
Resources: Lungs of the Fish MuAq(Au) 20, Call of the Rushing Waters InAq 15

Bond: Purveyor of Curiosities +1
Resources: The Ear for Distant Voices InAu 10 (B1+3 sight+1 conc+2 room), Chamber of Spring Breezes CrAu 5
Hevel is a curious lesser (Might 10) airy spirit that Propolos found wondering around his parens’ tower. He is only happy to be called to listen in on conversation in the strange places Propolos ends up at.

Grant, the Spirit of a Wolf
Social Status: Magical Friend (Minor Flaw)
Bond: Fellow Hunter +1
Resources: Image of the Beast InAn 5, Tracing the Trail of Death’s Stench InCo/An 15
Grant is a (Might 15) wolf spirit that Propolos befriended in a forest in the Rhine tribunal, while on adventure. Impressed with his skill at hunting down and vanquishing the Faerie that molested his forest, Grant sees Propolos as a hunter and would agree to aid him in future hunts. He can grant the power of sniffing out any dead body to which he (or his summoner) has an Arcane Connection (similar to The Inexorable Search, but only the scent, not precise location, is provided).

Background: Propolos was raised as Ricals del Doira, third son of a mediocre Italian merchant that traded mainly to the nobility in and around the Italian Alps. While he was initially favored and brought up in his father’s trade, he soon developed a magical air and vile premonitions. Things came to a hectic climax when one day he foresaw the death of the daughter of a noble, was accused of witchcraft, and by evening, after a bizarre day filled with strange coincidences and occurrences, found himself spirited away into the hands of a mysterious stranger. His father reluctantly let go of his son, so that he may grow among “his kind”.

The mysterious stranger turned out to be the Flambeau magus Pietro of the Greater Alps Tribunal, a leading member in the Cult of Mercury. Young Ricals looked up to his parens, and still respects him greatly, although he has turned to the school of Vilano (Pietro wields power over winter and weather, mixing the School of Sebastian and Boreas). After his gauntlet he spent much time as a guest (Peregrinator) in the Rhine tribunal, although he frequently returned to his masters’ chapter house, Juno’s Tower, in the Greater Alps, and also visited other covenants in the Alps and Normandy.

Eventually he was driven by Visions to seek out Andorra, traveling across the Rhine and then Normandy until he reached the temple of Mercury that Titus has commandeered, and then Andorra itself. He is convinced that the gods intend a great fate for him here, although he knows not what it is.
