The council chamber

Thanks!

Ok, edited for rolls here. Success on the 3 spells (Spont to fit more people inside the circle, + 2 Rituals)

For the characters I handle, Andros participates, Danaë of course participates, Lady A will get more Warping, and Sandor will get his first Warping Minor Flaw (Warped Senses: Weak Sense of Taste, which will be a curse for someone as Greedy and gluttonous as he, and he might not detect poisons in food or drink, oh well), Gloriana and MR of course are part of the Ritual. Sybilla will skip to try to avoid further Warping.

Gloriana speaks to Lucio in 1134, she wishes to obtain Medium Casting Props for Rego and for Vim: a Wand of Rowan inlaid with coral (for Vim) and a small chain made of magnetite (for Rego). If these can be Superior items (giving even more bonuses) all the better.

Gloriana will also wish to declare the day of Evandrus's passing as a day of reflection and remembrance, she will try and sway the other members to vote on this, so that even the grogs get a day off and drink to his memory.

She will ask Lucio if any of the artists/craftswomen took her upon the offer she made upon Evandrus's death:

Also, silveroak, did Lucio get any of craftsmen/artists to create more Props?:

The artists misunderstood (really Lucio did, and thus informed them incorrectly) and their tributes are largely statuary and decorations as opposed to props. They are certainly willing to make props instead next year however...
there are 6 decorative commemorative pieces however.
"Evandrus with the clay of life" AQ:25 sculpture in pottery
"Evandrus and the secret wisdom " AQ:22 tapestry
"Evandros in the faerie glade" stained glass AQ: 15
"Evandrus and the Dryads" wooden statue AQ:19
"Evandrus and the gnomes " AQ:23 stone statue
"Evandrus faerie friend" bronze sculpture AQ:18

GLORIANA IS DELIGHTED!!! She cries for joy (what she hopes are queenly tears)! She asks the Council to choose their favorite, she herself cannot decide which moves her more!

Oliverius is going to be giving Arduino his gauntlet next year, and is wondering if there is a spare lab that could be utilized for the test he is going to give his apprentice. Perhaps the one that had previously been utilized by Taurus?

My records vary from the wiki, I have Ouragan's old lab as available with Taurus lab already repurposed, but either way, yes there is a lab laying unused (plus the teaching lab which is merely sparsely used)

If I remember correctly, Oliverius wanted to claim Ouragan's lab because (1) Tauros was juuuust leaving and Ouragan not around for longer, and more importantly (2) Had less modification needed for his purposes.

Either way, there is a lab available.

Yeah, the lab is available, but I figure I should get permission before putting my apprentice in it for the year.

So Arduino is going to take over Taurus' lab, he's very excited about that!

Heh - You mistake the master's selfishness for kindness. He wants to be able to give Arduino a lab for the final year of his apprenticeship so that he can do his work and test the gauntlet without Oliverius losing access to his own lab. That said, he was planning on suggesting the move is permanent after the gauntlet is passed, but that's secondary to him keeping lab space. The forge must go on!

News for 1135:
Papal claimant Innocent II called a council at Pisa which has confirmed his position as Pope, though followers of Anacletus do not acknowledge its validity. In response the Covenant of Rome, a group of Catholic holy magi, has asked for a motion to be voted on at the 1137 tribunal for the order in Italy to support Anacletus, which they declare to be the properly elected pope having gotten the vote of the majority of Cardinals following the death of Honorius II, and stating that they believe the support of the order may be required to support the integrity and autonomy of the Church through these times, where Innocent II appears to be relying on the tradition, revoked by the papal bull In nomine Domini of 1059 by which the Holy Roman Emperor could appoint the next Pope, doubly ingenuous in this case sine Innocent has used his proclaimed position as Pope to appoint the claimant to the title of Holy Roman Emperor.
Pisa has sacked the city of Amalfi at the request of Innocent, and joined in the war against Roger II. Reports early in the year suggested Roger was ill and potentially on his deathbed, but these proved to be unfounded as he personally led multiple military campaigns.

Economics report for 1135:

Deals on vis for 1135: Creo and Terram- these may be withdrawn at 1:1 for vis of account

Anna votes for withdrawing as much as possible.

If you withdraw that much it will not all be of one type... or even all in the 3 1:1 trade types. 3024 pawns is a pretty heafty chunk of change... are there perhaps some books we could locate for you? Or have commissioned? Perhaps some summae, that would be a lot of tractatus as well, 1512 tractatus would take a lot of transportation.

I meant at the 1:1 rates. :blush:

We have large stocks of both!

•Andros will support if this vis is disbursed to the Magi, rather than stockpiled, say a 7 Creo: 3 Terram proportion? Don't know how much vis of account total can be changed or would be wise to change.
•Gloriana supports Anna's position, although she would like such vis, she will not put conditions.
•Danaë does not support, but if her position's unpopular, will ask that it be disbursed directly to the Magi and not stockpiled by the covenant.
