@Azel they can't actually fly, just tree stride underwater.
Hm, we should definitely capture more Dinos.
Huh, I thought Vee managed to train him some? Or is it just through Charm Animal?
So, @DragonParadox a few years ago, I've started mentioning how we'd want to train scores and scores of Warbeast Riding Dogs with Improved Scent for both war and guard (as they can pinpoint invisible enemies)... Is that still not going?

@DragonParadox Now that we have finished the Fire Whale Gem harvesting project, can we get the results of it? By which I mean how many IM work of gems do a harvest give, how often is it healthy to harvest, and what skills and spells do the person doing the harvesting need?
We are now able to harvest Fire Whale gems, but we still need to train or make the actual harvesters, we still need to calculate profits, we need to talk with the Fire Whales who agree to take part in it, to figure out how they would prefer spending their new income(as in whether they want to mainly hire protection, mainly buy weapons to protect themselves, or some combination of the 2)

I'll edit that into the appropriate interlude once I'm done with the current update. If I should forget feel free to PM me about it. Stuff like this can fall between the cracks unfortunately.

Thanks for that, we will need those numbers to set up the industry, we have the research done, but we still need to set up infrastructure, we need to make trade deals with the Whales, and we need to figure out how to spread the word about it amongst them.
Size: Medium
Attack: +3 (BAB unchanged) + 1 (STR) = 4 (2d6+2)
Charge (Ex): In addition to the normal benefits and hazards of a charge, this allows you to make a single horn attack (+5 melee) that deals 4d6+6 points of damage
AC: +7 (Natural Armor)
Styx Dragon Wyrmling:
Size: Changes to Small
Speed: 60 ft., swim 60 ft., burrow 20 ft.
Attack: +3 (BAB unchanged) +1 (Size) +1 (STR) = 5 (1d6+1 Bite) and (1d6+1 two tail barbs)
Reach: 5 and 5 feet
AC: +1 (Size) + 4 (Natural armor) = +5
Hide Skill: +4
Equipped Magic Items:Orphne Cloak, Ring of the Sea Dragon, Ever-flame Ring, Runestaff of Charming
But while I've got your attention, would you support me in getting an alternate build for the Archivists in place? We can keep the combat-focused ones, but I at least want there to be the option of ones that do what they were meant to do and scribe divine scrolls.

I am surprised that we didn't just build a bridge to it...did we build a bridge to it?
Edit: Never mind it is too far to build a bridge to by the look of it
So, can we revamp the Archivists to get Scribe Scroll back in there? They are the only divine casters that actually make scrolls, they really shouldn't be combat focused when they're more of a support class, and when having the ability to make backup scrolls can be a lifesaver, as opposed to very limited spellslots for summoning.

It's not too far to build a bridge, not for us at least. We've already built a bridge system throughout the Stepstones, and to Tyrosh, and to the mainland. People are calling it rebuilding the Arm of Dorne for good reason.
To Span the Sea: Dozens of reputable captains who yet trade in Tyrosh despite or perhaps even because of its conquest by the Dragon attest that some sorcery has built a bridge across the straights separating Tyrosh from mainland Essos. While many traders see this as an unparalleled boon, the Dragon King's foes quake at this show of power and wonder if he intends to rebuild the entire Arm of Dorne by his arcane arts, asking themselves what manner of army would be so terrible that it could not be set on a ship.
Even if they have a nearly unlimited selection of cleric spells depending on their patron, they're still limited to cleric spells. Archivists can learn any divine spell at all. This makes them innately more suited for scribing. They're supposed to be divine wizards.
Is it something that needs to be solved by Viserys, or "seeing the Menagerie report reminds you of an old idea..." and it gets solved in the background?

No, it makes them more suited to learning.
They can learn useful spells, needing only one scroll per person to do so.
Meanwhile a Cleric with Scribe Scroll can hammer out the ClW we want to hammer out in masses and some useful buffs (Conviction, Shield of faith, Bless, etc.) that our divine casters, be they Mystic, Cleric, Archivist or Adept don't need to prepare for before a combat then.
I admit there are a few non-Cleric divine spells were such massed production would be useful, but much more are on their list
So we really need only one or two archivists (scaling up later) to produce teaching-scrolls for other Archivists, but we can use any number of Clerics putting out low-level scrolls for actual use.

I disagree. All that holds an Archivist back is that they need to learn (which is not an issue given the Scholarum), and once they learn they can churn out those scrolls. An archivist that can scribe scrolls of ranger, druid, cleric, mystic, etc spells is worth a lot more to me than a cleric with Scribe Scroll.
Yeah, the vast majority of the universally useful ones are Cleric.
In general, the original builds are meant to double as crafting bots and battle mages. That's why many have Fiery Burst, Hedge Mages are essentially living army tools, etc
The Archivist makes for a great summoner as is, with Augment Summoning, Ashbound and Spontaenous Summoner.

Given our needs at the time I can grudgingly accept why this choice was made, but all I'm asking for now is at least an alternate build be voted in. You can have the combat Archivists, I just want the ones that don't want to focus on combat to have a build with Scribe Scroll. Given the numbers of our mages this really isn't a big ask.

Sure, sure, like I said, some of them likely get different stuff.
I doubt we'd have hundreds of peepers with exactly the same build, when part of being in the Scholarium is magical research, so there will be people "researching" their way to all sorts of feats and builds.
I just thought of the most exploitative Weirwood Heart Tree.
The Loophole Tree "A troll's face twisted in glee with finding a loophole even if it's sure to be vetoed." CL 20 Hallow Effect

Tertiary Effect 3:
Magic Circle Against Evil as an automatic part of Hallow (which is not included in the innate CL 20 Hallow effect), and then any three Tertiary effects we want. And since there are three Hallows, there are three Magic Circle Against Evils, so the range is multiplied to a 360 ft. radius.
