Arg three Items of Quality a season. The twinkery The munchkinism. I would never allow that as an ST. Now if someone else where running the game I think I might try to get it past them. 
Those IoQ's do take up quite a bit of time and who really has space in their scheduled to fix arcane connections. It's not like they can just wait for you to get an Apprentice.
Now if I can just convince them to let me take the Doesn't Sleep virtue.
