Familiar: Don Diaz (aka "Cidito"), an orange tabby tomcat of girth and gumption
Cidito is a fat orange tomcat that followed Roberto from Novus Mane. Mainly because Roberto always gave him his leftover milk, and also because he likes sleeping in his fireplace. It is unknown if Cidito was warped into his magical state from the high Magic Aura of Novus Mane, if he acquired these traits elsewhere, or if he was born that way. There are apocryphal legends that Flambeau (or Delendos) had an orange tabby familiar, a sort of undocumented lineage of magical cats. Cidito may be fat, but he is also large and strong for a cat. He has a bold personality, confident and unafraid. Full statistics for Cidito are given below. The Bond statistics are as follow...

Angel of Aelianus: Lesser Enchanted Device
[tab][/tab]Created by Aelianus of Verditius, Pontifex of Novus Mane; the Angel is a wooden statuette about a foot high, carved & painted in intricate detail. It is a hallmark of master craftsmanship. He has created several angels so far, each different from the rest. This one has his hands held high and head thrown back (Swan Song Records), and is titled "Iccarus".
CrIg(Au)40 Chamber of Summer Breezes
R: Touch, D: Item Maintains Concentration, T: Room; Unlimited Use
[tab][/tab]The Angel generates a warm breeze of fresh air that provides heat and fresh ventilation. The overall effect of this Magical Heating & Ventilation is a bonus of +2 Health. Aelianus specifically designed it for magi who live in their sanctum and/or may have very large labs. An additional magnitude for Size accounts for this possibility.

[tab][/tab]Roberto has gone through several swords in his career. Clemente, his old longsword named after his father, was given as a gift to his sodale Wirth. Carlita was a sword he used for a short time during the Shadow Wars, which was disintegrated by Rassus. Santiago, named for his mentor from whom it was received as a gift, was lost in the boiling sea. Kindness was crafted by Pedro, using Vandium steel and the Toledo style, to prove the point that he could craft a blade as fine as Santiago. He did better. When Pedro was slain in battle, he gave the sword to Roberto and whispered his dying breath "...kill them with kindness...". Roberto accepted the sword and was going to name it Vengador, but then noticed Pedro had already inscribed the name "Kindness" upon it.[/strike]

Enchanted & Exceptional Items:
Angel of Aelianus: Lesser Enchanted Device
[tab][/tab]Created by Aelianus of Verditius, Pontifex of Novus Mane; the Angel is a wooden statuette about a foot high, carved & painted in intricate detail. It is a hallmark of master craftsmanship. He has created several angels so far, each different from the rest. This one has his hands held high and head thrown back (Swan Song Records), and is titled "Iccarus".
CrIg(Au)40 Chamber of Summer Breezes
R: Touch, D: Item Maintains Concentration, T: Room; Unlimited Use
[tab][/tab]The Angel generates a warm breeze of fresh air that provides heat and fresh ventilation. The overall effect of this Magical Heating & Ventilation is a bonus of +2 Health. Aelianus specifically designed it for magi who live in their sanctum and/or may have very large labs. An additional magnitude for Size accounts for this possibility.

Kindness: Exceptional Weapon
Statistics: Init +2, Atk +7, Def +1, Dmg +9
[tab][/tab]Roberto has gone through several swords in his career. Clemente, his old longsword named after his father, was given as a gift to his sodale Wirth. Carlita was a sword he used for a short time during the Shadow Wars, which was disintegrated by Rassus. Santiago, named for his mentor from whom it was received as a gift, was lost in the boiling sea. Kindness was crafted by Pedro, using Vandium steel and the Toledo style, to prove the point that he could craft a blade as fine as Santiago. He did better. When Pedro was slain in battle, he gave the sword to Roberto and whispered his dying breath "...kill them with kindness...". Roberto accepted the sword and was going to name it Vengador, but then noticed Pedro had already inscribed the name "Kindness" upon it.
Familiar: Don Diaz (aka "Cidito"), an orange tabby tomcat of girth and gumption
Cidito is a fat orange tomcat that followed Roberto from Novus Mane. Mainly because Roberto always gave him his leftover milk, and also because he likes sleeping in his fireplace. It is unknown if Cidito was warped into his magical state from the high Magic Aura of Novus Mane, if he acquired these traits elsewhere, or if he was born that way. There are apocryphal legends that Flambeau (or Delendos) had an orange tabby familiar, a sort of undocumented lineage of magical cats. Cidito may be fat, but he is also large and strong for a cat. He has a bold personality, confident and unafraid. Full statistics for Cidito are given below. The Bond statistics are as follow...

Johan VanHalen II: aka "Junior"
Chronology: Born in 1207, sailed Devil's Teeth with father in 1216 at age 9, first sails with pirates ate age 10 in 1217, encountered Sea Hag in 1220 at age 13, came to Bibracte with Roberto in 1227, Alabaster Lioness/King Neptune/Heracleion/Ibiza; currently 1234 and age 27

Flaws: -1 Reckless, -1 Restricted Power, -1 Social Handicap (uncouth), -1 Warped by Magic (Minor Malediction-Prohibition); -3 Curse of Venus, -3 Optimistic
Minor Malediction - Prohibition against riding on a ship when a woman is aboard: Junior was exposed to the magic of the sea hag when he was a child, afflicting him with warping. Gaining a Warping Score of 1, he acquired the Minor Flaw of Prohibition (or call it Minor Malediction). He cannot sail on a ship or ride a boat that has a woman on board, or it will sink (or crash or something else). It has happened several times. This does not apply to animals or supernatural beings with a might score, only human women, and the ship will sink regardless of any known precaution. Because of his early childhood exposure to magic, Junior may spend experience points in Magic Lore.

The Flying Dutchman
1 Fatigue, Init -5, Herbam
R: Touch, D: Constant, T: Ind
[tab][/tab]Johan can move a ship he is on any direction he pleases as he wills (using his Profession-Seaman score); effortlessly against the wind, upon the wind in the sky, over dry land, or under water. It doesn't plow through land, he hovers over it. And submerging a ship will sink it unless he also surrounds it with his Airy Sphere power. But he can make the ship fly, and it will stay in the sky indefinitely as long as he is aboard it. If he disembarks, the power fades at sunrise/sunset but the ship softly descends slowly.
[tab][/tab]This is a Variable Power ties to Johan's skill in Profession-Seaman. With a score of 5, he wields this power with five magnitudes of improved effectiveness. The Size of the ship he can affect is increased two magnitudes, from tiny to small then large. The potential Speed is improved three magnitudes, from a base of "slowly" to 15 knots to up to twice then three times that speed (45 knots or the speed of the current wind, whichever is higher). This is also a Restricted Power, and will not function as long as a woman is aboard the ship (as per his Malediction).

Airy Sphere of the Submerged Vessel
1 Fatigue, Init -12, Aquam/Auram
R: Touch, D: Constant, T: Structure
[tab][/tab]If aboard a ship submerged under the sea, this power transforms the water immediately surrounding the vessel into breathable air. This bubble is a sphere with a diameter equal to the length (or longest dimension) of the vessel. This isn't a ward against water and the bubble is just a cosmetic effect. The sphere is perpetuated indefinitely, but if he disembarks the ship it will slowly fade at sunrise/sunset (cosmetic fluff, the bubble begins to fill with water).

Carpet of Orestes: Lesser Enchanted Device
[tab][/tab]Obtained as a gift from the covenant of Pyramids I during the Alabaster Lioness Expedition, the carpet was enchanted by Orestes of Bonisagus and given to Roberto to solve a logistical problem he has with is entourage. Johan cannot ride upon a ship with women, and one of his key members, Wen, is a woman and the (effectively wife) of another key henchman Allen (his big bruiser). So Wen often rides the carpet and scouts ahead of Johans ship, with Cidito tagging along to maintain communication.

[tab][/tab]Roberto has gone through several swords in his career. Clemente, his old longsword named after his father, was given as a gift to his sodale Wirth. Carlita was a sword he used for a short time during the Shadow Wars, which was disintegrated by Rassus. Santiago, named for his mentor from whom it was received as a gift, was lost in the boiling sea. Kindness was crafted by Pedro, using Vandium steel and the Toledo style, to prove the point that he could craft a blade as fine as Santiago. He did better. When Pedro was slain in battle, he gave the sword to Roberto and whispered his dying breath "...kill them with kindness...". Roberto accepted the sword and was going to name it Vengador, but then noticed Pedro had already inscribed the name "Kindness" upon it.

That is supposed to be my clean and pressed thread. Only the player of that character is supposed to post in that character's main thread. Comments should be put in the development thread for the character 
Anyway, I invented the Incantation of Paralyzation waaaay back in the Novus Mane days, had the same spell in Bibracte, and you only now just notice my design?
Concentration works for me because it gives me the option of "releasing" the target by my will. For most purposes, PoF is a better spell 
I just noticed you put the wrong version on the wiki. I scaled him back to only two cycles, battlefield gauntlet in 1212 bur finishes training in 1220 and starts Novus Mane at age 30 and equivalent to a newly Gauntleted wizard. Two cycles, 14 years development.
However, I am able to handle the wiki and can get around to fixing it later. No worries 
I've handled the wiki 
Updated the wiki.
Could you please include a write-up for the grimoire?
Thanks!
