[X] Disdain for Sigmar > Polytheist: Your bitterness towards Sigmar has softened with time and distance. You're still not thrilled with him, but as long as his followers are coexisting with those of other Gods, you can deal with it. +1 Piety, removes anti-Sigmarite penalty except when dealing with Sigmarite supremacists and monotheists.

The other stuff is important, but please, let's turn this self and Empire sabotaging trait into something that's tolerable.

I figure we can just leave her to her own means, she has shown independence and will likely only requiere a minimum amount of direction on our part.

[X] Recruit Maximilian
Can't let this one go.

[X] Recruit Johann
Folks, Wizard Recruiting is done by plan. Individual votes like these will have you recruiting only one.

Esbern and Seija have plans for after they deal with the spiders and I don't think we should interfere with that, while Johann would be tricky to manage. Recruit Maximilian for sure, and recruit Panoramia because there's no reason not to.

[X] Leave the EIC alone

[X] Wolf Familiar > Winter Wolf Familiar: Turns out Wolf is a late bloomer. Wolf will grow large enough to ride upon.

- Happy 100th update. Thank you all for joining me on this journey.
The pleasure is ours I assure you.

Nice avatar by the way.

"If Anton told you to throw me out, would you?"

He looks at you doubtfully. "I would try."
Smart enough to know his odds, brave enough to try regardless. An excellent guard.

Voting will require some thought this time. Lots of bits and some synergy.
Provisional choice:

[X] Plan close friends
-[x] Recruit Panoramia
-[x] Recruit Maximilian

A reasonable start. Don't want to overstretch with 2 actions at the start and can't rely on the herding cats trait. Max for his penmanship, Pan because she is adorkable.

[X] Take an active hand in the EIC
I'm willing to spend an action per turn on the trade network.

Traits…

It was given as a symbol of jolly cooperation and should remain such.
 
@BoneyM

Is it theoretically feasible for Mathildes magical senses to become sensitive enough to see all the winds of magic rather than being filtered purely through the lens of Ulguu, basically I'm wondering if she's able to pull off what Volans was doing?

If we want to learn how to combine the lores of gods and the color winds having a trait for not exploding upon attempting one of the prerequisites is a must.
 
@BoneyM

If we ended up taking the Familiar-as-Winter-Wolf option, would there be any way to combine the shadow steed functionality with him? Either through an enchanted item, or just familiar wonk letting us cast it on him to give him greater speed/endurance?

Something that'd essentially preserve the spell's functionality in conjunction with him?

Regarding the Torc, while it might not be useful for us, it is a very nice item.

Giving it to the Undumgi, whose job is to hold the line, seems to be worth more than 2 college favor. It's the sort of thing that might snap victory from the jaws of defeat, if used at the right time.

@BoneyM can we do a little ceremony of passing the Torc to their new leader? I figure it's useful to cement both the new leader's authority, and our influence over the place.

Yes. Ulgu will always be easiest for her but she can currently see sufficiently large quantities of other Winds.

Sure.
 
we got confirmation that it would actually make it harder for Chaos gribblies to possess us if we take Avatar
This isn't a negative trait. It's amidst other positive traits, and the scenario in which we earned the possibility of that trait was an unmitigated win for both us and Ranald. We're not going to get punished for our success.

We also got posseses by freaking Mork, the options isnt "Avatar of Ranald", it's not purely negative but dont think for a second its pure positive either.
It's very nice that it excludes the chaos gods, but there are lots of other beings out there that will be happy to use us for their own means.

Just as a heads-up: Plan 2 Wizards, Plan Those Who'd Stay, and Plan: Is it a Plan? are all identical (Maximilian and Panorama). This thread is moving super fast, so probably y'all won't see this, but if you do... approval vote or coalesce on one option! @VoidZero @Ganurath @CuttleFish2.0

EDIT: Also Plan Close Friends @SuperSonicSound
EDIT2: Also Plan Cute Little Underlings @Redshirt Army
