Ah, got it. That clears it up.
Will you have Invoke Pact of Lasa Vegoia and Invoke the Pact of Selene written up (or the daimons involved written up) so that I can see what effect they're supposed to have?
Lasa Vegoia is written up in mysteries on p.138 I will develop a write up for Selene, but it will be based on ROP:M p.108
Shouldn't that be 16 xp each season?
it includes +1 correspondance
Got it.
I did some vague numbers in my head, and it seems good. But can you show me the Penetration for using Lasa Vegoia?
Rego:12, Vim:20, Sta:3, Arts Liberales:5, Philosophae:7, Name of Power: Thoth +5, Name of Power Hecetate:+9, charm:Daimon/character, charm:matron/aspect, charm:teaching/event, charm:lab/place, aura:7, total:71, requires roll 4+ or trading uses of communion spells with another wizard in order to drop the level rolled for by 20 giving plenty of penetration.
If you don't feel like Thoth and Hecetate's names of Power should apply I can add a couple seasons adding names of power which do...
I thought the numbers worked. I just wanted to be sure.
Oh, and is the Hecate +9 a typo? It looks like Hecate is +5.
Trading communion spells shouldn't be hard. Magnus will have it.
Both of those seem appropriate to a Vim spell. In fact, I was looking at those names of power myself.
What exactly do you mean by "Thoth's magic raising" and "Hecate's magic raising?"
It means that each of them give a +5 bonus for spells to raise magical power- my primary thoughts when I wrote that were for Wizards communion and Feeding the Font of the covenant...

area Lore: forest Regio Network:5
Leadership:5
I don't think that's quite how Regio Networks operate. The rules say:
I've always taken that to mean that you need to make a roll for the Area Lore for that particular locale. So, if you're trying to find a regio entrance in the Iberian Tribunal, you need to make an EF 9 AL:Iberian Tribunal check. You would not have a single AL for the whole network that would suffice for finding network entrances all across the world.
change to adding to area lore:Europe (forests)
Europe is awfully large for a single Area Lore. Just so you know, I will make the EF relatively high to find a nearby entrance to the regio. Knowledge as broad as Europe says that you know where an entrance is in "France," not necessarily "near to Paris." The broader the area, the shallower the knowledge about any individual place.
Yes, we covered this already, OOK has area lore: Europe(forests) at level 4 already.
Thank you for filling out the Google Drive sheet for seasonal advancement.
One thing I wanted to note for next season, however. Alas, if Mordag takes Latin lessons from Barclay, his SQ will not drop down to 22, it'll drop down to 19 because of the -3 for teaching someone with the Gift. (FInlay has the Gentle Gift)
And for Spring 1220, Meliai will have to choose between adventure xp and exposure xp. She can't have both. (I assume she'll pick the adventure xp.) She can still have a correspondence, however.
