So, my local covenant of hooligans are busy trying to lay low in their small signeurial castle while Henry the Third and Louis the Lion prepare to battle for the crown of France.
They do note that they haven't got a lot of money, and money can make a lot of things happen, it seems. They decided the best thing to do would be to improve the fertility of the fields near their castle, and to also figure out a means to improve the produce of their vineyards and the wine they send to market.
That said, some ideas were bandied about.
CrTe to improve the fertility of the earth for the year. The magus with this idea, a Terram specialist, had no clue what guideline to use, or what other Forms to crib a guideline from. Any thoughts?
Someone suggested the mage with a high Rego Ignem score might focus the beneficial effects of the sun's rays upon the grapes and fields with a boundary target ritual. Does this sound like madness?
Muto Imaginem from the Muto specialist might make the wine taste supernaturally good, or CrIm might make it just taste like the most perfect vintage possible.
I was then curious how many different Technique/Form combinations might be useful for helping a covenant makes money - either by way of fields and vineyards, or by any means you can construe if a particular Tech/Form combo seems not to lend itself to agriculture or vitriculture.
Anyone care to add some more ways to use magic to aid a covenant's means?
