ReAn 5 Ward against Biting Insects, The Net Wizard's Grimoire

BACKGROUND
Haestus was the Gifted apprentice of an Ex Misc hedge wizard inducted into the order under a “Join or Die” edict. His parens, Galt ex Miscellanea, never amounted to much hermetically speaking, but left him his heritage of Craft Magic and a deep respect for the human and non-human crafters of the world. Very early on in his apprenticeship Haestus met and befriended Dobran, a Beaver of virtue and craft muse. Dobran quickly saw the potential in the youth and agreed to partner with him, whereupon Haestus worked diligently in the arts of Rego and Animal to gain the needed power. As the years progressed, Dobran told Haestus the tales of lost Atlantis, focusing on the Atlanteans cunning crafting, both magical and mundane.
Shortly after gauntlet, Galt passed away due to old age and Haestus became the Wise One of his village, much as his Parens had served prior. Due to his increased Hermetic sophistication, Haestus maintained stronger ties to the order, including maintaining lose ties to a covenant and attending Tribunal to buy and sell, covering the niche market of items too small or insignificant to be dominated by Verditius. At one such tribunal, he met Magnus and discovered their shared passion of the Tales of Lost Atlantis, and Haestus quickly agreed to join the decades-long preparation to return the continent thought lost forever.

Edited to swap affinity for puisant, and tweak background a little (remove father-son relationship, replace with parens), corrected error in carpentry xp was 29, should be 5

Revamped spells, increased level or Maintain the Demanding Spell, eliminated Flight of the Hummingbird, added Ward Against Biting Insects

changed PVS from Rego to Animal

Hold for seasonal development

When I'm done with all six cycles I'll post a dropbox link to an excel sheet summarizing all six. I got as far as finishing the first three, but then saw the changes to familiars and adventuring. I'll recalculate and get it up when I"m done, which is gonna take a little while.

Ritual Powers

Grant Puissant Craft
Might: 3
Init: -15
Vim Aligned Ritual
R: Touch
D: Momentary
T: Individual
Imposes the virtue Puissant Craft upon the target. If permanent, the ritual costs Might Score as well as Might Points. If temporary, the Might Points do not regenerate until the virtue is withdrawn.
Mastery Points: +2 points from Improved Powers to reduce Might cost from 5 to 3
No hermetic equivalent, costs 25 Ritual Power levels

Personal Powers

Human Shape
Might: 0
Init: n/a, requires several minutes
Corpus aligned
R: Personal
D: Sun
T: Individual
The character turns himself into the shape of a normal human being, allowing him to move through mundane society relatively unnoticed. The character must be stationary for several minutes while he consciously sheds his animal aspects and replaces them with human ones. This ritual is a product of the Resticted Power Flaw, and takes several minutes due to the Slow Power Flaw. The ritual is blatantly magical and the character may not take any actions during the ritual without abandoning the activation of this power.
Mastery Points: convert 10 levels from Personal Power to reduce Might cost to 0
MuAn20, Base10, D: Sun +2

Hands of the Magical Animal
Might: 0
Init: +3
Animal aligned
R: Touch
D: Sun
T: Individual
Constant Power
The animal may manipulate and/or carry an object as if it had a strength of +5. The character must concentrate to do anything other than carry.
Mastery Points: convert 10 levels from Personal Power to reduce Might cost to 0
ReTe15, Base 3, +1 Touch, +2 Sun, +1 constant effect

Clear Sight of the Naiad
Might: 0
Init: +3
Aquam aligned
R: Personal
D: Sun
T: Vision
The caster sees as clearly through water as air.
Mastery Points: convert 10 levels from Personal Power to reduce Might cost to 0
InAq15, Base 1, +2 Sun, +4 Vision

Flight of the Hummingbird
Might: 0
Init: +3
Animal aligned
R: Personal
D: Sun
T: Ind
Constant effect
The character can fly through the air simply by concentrating. If distracted the control is lost but the character stays aloft.
Mastery Points: convert 10 levels from Personal Power to reduce Might cost to 0
ReAn15, Base 4, +2 Sun, +1 constant

Sight Beyond Sight
Might: 0
Init: +2
Animal aligned

Keep in mind that base 4 moves you very slowly. And being as it's a spell and not a power, I'm going to say that when you lose concentration, the spell ends and you fall. None of that "the power still holds the character aloft indefinitely" stuff. If it were diameter or sun or moon duration, sure. But not concentration. In a Concentration duration spell, once concentration ends, so does the spell.

I believe a level 10 version of MtDS only works on spells up to an equal level, i.e., 10.

A magus having a Gifted child is amazingly rare - almost unheard of barring special circumstances.

Also, I don't think Haestus has the Craft skill level (or effective Craft skill level for magic crafting) to maintain superior equipment and superior tools.

And where does the +2 Muto come from?

7

Put that way, it does sound kinda hinky. I'll rework it to be more conventional.

I re-read the spell and I believe you are correct. I think I was basing this off the effect, not the actual spell. I think I'll just delete this and use the levels elsewhere.

I can rework this into something else, it's not central to the concept.

It should be more clear once I post his development. At the end of cycle 1 (same time frame as the posted lab) he will have Dex 3, Craft 3+1, Faerie Blood +1, Essential Virtue (Dextrous Smith) 3, Excellent +2 tool, Puisant +2, and Granted Puissance in (specific activity in smithing)+3 for a craft total of 18.

In order to achieve this in cycle 1, he will need to bind his familiar, get enough vis to transform and craft a really nice tool. If he can't achieve the transformation in cycle 1 he will be down to a craft total of 16. He will also need to spend a season establishing a workshop.

From the Deformed and Disorganized flaws which I seem to have neglected to add!

8

For ReCo flying I'm probably going to use Base 15, +2 Sun. That allows for fast movement, concentration to alter the effect, and a long duration. Ends in a level 25 spell if made as Personal.
I called it By Will Alone - when I write it up originally.

9

I'm going for a touch version of that spell for greater utility.

10

I'm not sure how much of a limitation this will really be in practice. Most adventures will take place during the day when he has no penalty. Really, it will just make my life difficult by forcing me to make sure that some adventures take place at night.

Where does he get these reputations?

11

I'll pick another flaw, then, there's plenty to choose from. I chose the reputations simply because I thought they'd fit the character, although they'd be better at the end of the cycles, not the beginning. They are not important and can be deleted if you wish.

No, now that you mention it, after six cycles it's likely some of you (all of you) would have some kind of reputation.

13

Makes a lot of sense that each would have various reps. Perhaps we should have up to 6 points in reps to represent the cycles, split how we like?
So a 3x reps of 2 is ok, as is a 5 and a 1.

Or just pick what we desire and justify them?

Another option would be that we explain a few of the Seasons to link them to reps? Backstory is needed anyway so it's probably not additional effort.

14

I like that.

15

Any way we could see a work in progress, even if it's not done? That might help keep things on track.

16

Yes, but I'm limited to my phone for a few days. Can post a file Fri evening

[strike]Proposed Talisman to be made during Cycle 3:

Wool knitted work glove, fingerless. The glove is made of two types of threads, one that has been infused with mercury and the other with mistletoe oil. Where the fingers join the back of the glove are four small beads, topaz, crystal, emerald and hornbeam. The back of the glove is reinforced with metal scales like those used in armor. Haestus intends to inscribe these scales with portraits, writing, seals or images to add additional possible attunements at a later date.

During Cycle 2 Haestus has a Magic Theory of 8, allowing 8 components:
Woolen work glove
Iron scales
Mercury infusion
Mistletoe infusion
Topaz bead
Crystal bead
Emerald bead
hornbeam bead

He will spend a season adventuring for the components and additional seasons investing/attuning it.[/strike]

Edit: skipping the talisman entirely

Alas, you can't update a talisman once it's built. Once you set its Shapes/Forms, they're set for good.

unless you initiate the great talisman mystery...
