So, I was looking at the wiki and saw that the list of towers was out-of-date. Vulcanis and Fedora have left and Antoine has moved into the previously empty tower. I'm not sure exactly what's happening with Vocis now that fightmaster is gone. But barring any information to the contrary, I kept him where he is.
As I understand it, the current distribution of towers is as follows;
Vibria's tower was pretty damaged when she had a lab accident, and currently is unoccupied, as Vibria resigned to go on walkabout with her grandfather. I don't know if it's been rebuilt, but I think so.
Vibria's twer was burned out, but not destroyed. It was easilly repaired. It's just a matter of money, which will have Carmen griping and complaining for sure. Leave it falow for now.
Everything loooks accurate. That corner tower remains under control of Vocis. Before him it was Octavian's. It is a Tremere tower
Where Antoine is, that is the tower Vulcanus conjured. This is good.
Fedora's tower used to be the one next to the Mercere tower. I think. Lucas should move into that one.
The two towers in the upper left corner and the area around it is the Mercere Quarter. There has been further construction that is not on the map. I did not draw it, I just swiped it :mrgreen:
One tower is just for Redcaps, the other for the resident Mercere Magus. The Chief Redcap of the Quarter might reside here instead, as was the case with Fedora. There is space enough for a second non-magus resident. Fedora once shared the tower with Tiana, magus Decimus shared the space (and more) with Lejla the charming Redcap.
Another building, not on the map, contains three Mercere Portals. They lead Barcelona (Yuval’s), Doisettep, and Harco. I imagine they are in different rooms. Maybe different floors? “Third Floor! Harco…”
The Mercere Portal to Sa Dragonera is at Yuval’s, so the five minute trip between Mallorca and Arans can easily turn into an hour or more if one stops off for a quick drink at the bar
Somewhere in the covenant we have set up an old fashioned Hermes Portal, between Arans and Giza (Pyramids III). It is what enabled our expedition to the City of Brass.
There could be another additional building or two. What is needed? The Mercere are heavily invested in this property and are willing to accommodate.
And by the way, the unspoken position of the Mercere is to support Bellaquin’s leasing rights, for the Mercere are leasing this Quarter and find the arrangement quite profitable.
Asilano, you need to create a wikidot account, and then ask permission. I don't remember how it's done ( ), but I suppose that if you try to edit a page or something like that, you'll have that option.
Going home, see you tomorrow, I hope (But given my 2 last weeks, I don't hold to it)
Cracking - I'll get the ring up in a day or two (Weds-Thurs are my busy days at work). Its stats are in the Defence Classes and Productive Paranoia thread; from memory, it's PeMe "Dissolving the Wall of Shields", Group Voice Momentary, 6 times / day (instilled level 20).
I already have Wiki access. It was... uh... Cannonball that was asking.
I was wondering the same thing about Guiverna. I don't want to just assume that she'll get rubber-stamped for membership at Sa Dragonera, but I do think Mr Spooky would be a good story for her, being an Egyptian pagan and all.
The Redcaps have their own resources with abstract averages. They need no lab texts and don't study arts. To have a PC Redcap, the idea is to either join the covenant or advance as an NPC.
We can work on that, but it is not a huge concern for me as of yet.
Feur is de facto in carge of the library now. Vocis is still chief librarian, but Fightmaster had to bow out and at the time was already working with Silveroak on a library project. So NPC Vocis made PC Fleur a deputy.
If anyone wants in on a library project, talk to Vocis. He has grand plans. He wants a strong main library, a good selection of lab texts, a staff of teachers, a common library that covenfolk and visitors can use, and a Master's Library of books of exquisite quality/level an lab texts colected in grimoires &/or high level.
