- (works as rarefy the crude water on p. 133 of RoP:M but summon an air elemental) Major flaw, the summoned air elemental is hostile to everyone, there for it must be controlled by magic or by other means kept safe. It is impossible to train an elemental summoned with this spell according to the rules of RoP:M p. 81-82

**** Minor side effect is that the spell cause the wind to drop slightly in intensity. Not enough to affect something but enough to be noticeable. The effect ends when the spell does.
***** Work as Command the living fire RoP:M p. 133 but work on air elementals.
****** Work as Wings of the soaring winds but with range personal.
Background: Bulba grew up in Flanders without a father. As a boy he where called Didderic. As soon as he could work he contributed to his poor family’s upkeep. His mother worked as a seamstress and sold of Bulba to a magus to clear a debt, once Bulbas gift had manifest.
During his apprenticeship he where introduced into the Order of the Green Cockerel as well as Mercurian mystics. Bulba could noticed his master disappointment that Bulba lacked the inventers keen mind that his master had hoped for. However his ambitions made up so at the end of his apprenticeship he seemed like a most promising new gauntled magus. A few Bonisugus elder had watched his training with some interest.
Once a magus Bulba travelled to a new founded covenant at the south edge of the Pomeranian forest where he had gained membership. He stayed there for ten years and where given hints to leave once he had put the covenant in peril twice.

Bulba starts up with his original research to align hermetic magic to Plato’s philosophy as mentioned in A&A on page 11. This should according to A&A be a minor breakthrough.

Season 1: Invent Rarefy the crude air CrAu 30 with experimentation; Lab total 34 + 6 from dice roll: Total 40 invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197674/
Extra ordinary effect from season 1 (I will roll multiple dices on use them in order as there is a risk for disasters and so on. The dices will be used in the order as they are needed.) invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197687/
First roll 6 -2 for risk modifier gives the result of 4 that gives no extraordinary effects.
Season 2: Second set of dice rolls: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197697/
Roll of 7 -2 risk modifier = 5 gives a side effect: Major flaw Suggested major flaw is that the summoned air elemental is hostile to everyone, there for it must be controlled by magic or by other means kept safe. It is impossible to train an elemental summoned with this spell according to the rules of RoP:M p. 81-82
Season 3: Third set of dice rolls: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197713/
Roll of 2 -2 risk modifier = 0 no extra ordinary effect
Bulba has now invented Rarefy the crude air CrAu 30 (works as rarefy the crude water on p. 133 of RoP:M) but has a major flaw.
Season 4: Bulba continues with his original research, this time by inventing a ward against magical creature of the air lv. 15. Lab total 33 + 2 dice roll = 35 invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197722/
Extra ordinary effect roll invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197725/
Roll of 6 -2 in risk modifier = 4 for no extra ordinary effects.
Ward against magical creatures of the air works as ward against faeries of the air in ArM5 p. 128 but against magical creatures.
Year 7
Bulba continues his work.
Season 1
Bulba tries to invent the following spells in his original research:
- The circle of warmth CrIg lv. 5
- The fragile lantern CrIg lv. 10
- Palm of flame lv.5
Simple die roll for CrIg spells: 6 invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197733/
Lab total: 33+6=39 this is to low to invent all spells in one season so Bulba drops the Palm of flame from the inventions.
Extra ordinary effect for The circle of warmth: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197736/
Roll of 3 +1 for risk modifier gives no extra ordinary effects.
Extra ordinary effects for The fragile lantern: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197742/
Roll of 9 +1 for risk modifier gives a discovery!
Circle of warmth CrIg lv. 5
R: Touch D: Ring T: Circle
Make the area within the circle warm and comfortable for humans.
Base level 2 +1 touch + 2 Ring = Total level 5
Season 2
Happy from his slight breakthrough Bulba tries to stabilize his discovery. As there are no need for another roll I just roll the extraordinary effect roll. invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197746/
Roll of 3 +1 risk modifier give no extra ordinary effects and thus the breakthrough is stabilized. Bulba has now 2 breakthrough points towards discovery.
Warping roll: 2 invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197750/ Bulba suffers no warping.
Season 3
Bulba make a longevity ritual for himself: -5 to ageing rolls.
Season 4
Bulba continues his research and invents True sight of the air InAu 15 (ArM5 p. 127). As he need to roll a 1 or more on the simple die I skip that step.
Roll for extraordinary effects: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197767/
Roll 7 -1 in risk modifier gives a side effect. The roll of 4 gives the spell a minor side effect. Suggested minor side effect is that the spell cause the wind to drop slightly in intensity. Not enough to affect something but enough to be noticeable. The effect ends when the spell does.
Ageing roll: 3 invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197770/ +4 for age -1 for living conditions -5 for longevity ritual = 1 No apparent ageing
Year 8
Season 1
Bulba continues with his original research. This time he invents Conjuring the Wizards sanctum CrTe lv. 30, a spell of his own devising.
Lab total 33 +5 from dice roll, invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197803/
Extra ordinary effects season 1
Dice rolls: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197805/
First roll 8 +2 in risk modifier= 10 gives a discovery! Now Bulba just have to not screw this up…
Season 2
Dice roll: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197808/
First roll of 1 gives that the second is dubbled so 4*2+2 = 10 still on the path of discovery.
Season 3
Dice roll: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197811/
First roll of 8 +2 in risk modifier give 10, this could be a real discovery…
Season 4
Dice roll: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197816/
First roll of 1 does that the second of 8 is double +2 for risk; total 16 thus Bulba most roll twice…
First of the two rolls… 1; 8*2+2= 16 two more rolls…
The second of the first two dices give a 3+2 for risk make a side effect.
Simple dice for side effect: 5 invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197824/ Minor side effect. Suggested effect is that the ground near the structure are make even in a pace diameter of the structure.
Now two more extraordinary effects, more dice must be rolled… Second set of rolls invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197828/
First roll: 6 +2 for risk gives a complete failure… Bulba realises that his experiment where built on some false premises and thus he has wasted a year.
Ageing roll: 2*3 invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197841/ +4 for age -1 living condition -5 longevity ritual= 5 apparent ageing increases.
Year 9

Season 2
Extraordinary effect roll invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197868/
Roll: 0 and at least 2 more 2 gives that this experiment is a disaster…
Simple dice roll for disaster: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197873/
Roll: 6 +2 risk modifier -0 perception = 8 Bulbas experiment endangers the entire covenant by the summoning of a most angry zephyr.
Season 3
Bulba makes a humiliating penance for his experiment that went wrong. Bulba thinks that he should find a new covenant as soon as the opportunity arises…

Flight of the Magus Cr(Re)Au 25 as Wings of the soaring winds but with range personal.
Season 4
Bulba continues his research by inventing Howl of the Steel Weapons InTe 15
As a simple dice roll of 1 or more is needed I skip that step.
Extraordinary effect roll: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197939/
As the first dice is a 0 there is a risk for a botch the first 4 dices show no botch but two more is needed. Sadly a 0 is rolled and thus it is a disaster…
Simple die for disaster: invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2197944/
Roll 1 + 2 risk -0 perception = 3 Destroyed experiment and Bulba also blow up his stack of vis he had been hoarding for the move to a new covenant. So, he thinks, it’s time to pack my bags and head for a new home.
