Inactive:
[] Research the staff found in Sothoryos
[] Try to find a way to remove the fllaw from Vestment of Ebonsilk
[] Valyrian Steel (how to make, how to reforge; use Lich's notes and scull)
-[] Update: DP straight up told us what we have would be enough to learn all we want, if lengthy.
[] Ice Heart
-[] The nature of it's connection to Others, if said connection can be subverted, if they'd be able to act through this connection (and how) when the artifact goes active.
-[] The possibility of ensnaring the power of the artifact to power
*insert_project_here* (with
Energy Transforamation Field).
[] Glided Devil's Treasure (Cursed AF, probably good Tree-fertilisers).
[] Science needed for antigrav engine. Refer to Azel for details.
[] Modifying the familiar-binding ritual to allow for classes that don't usually get familiars.
[] Researching the ritual that Alysande used with Silver Eye trinket to gain acess to magic.
[] AoE Soul-entraping contraption (use Amrelath's book on creation of phylacteries for bonus, use Lich's scull for further necromancy lore).
Likely requires:
-[] Scythe Research (attempt to fit the effect of soul-reaping into Dark Sister, also understand the effect).
-[] Soul-catching Nets Research (how to entrap free-roaming souls, Devil Edition).
--[] NOTE: there also was that neat soul-catching metal to look for in PoE.
[] Research into nature of Shadow Plane and finding a way to expand the Shadow Tower's demiplane.
[] Research a way to get a Hydra a fiendish/celestial/elemental template
[] Research a
spell
[] Research the Fey rituals traded with Silver Eye
-[] Spell Resistance-granting ritual specifically, try to make it posssible to use not as part as SE-Agent PRC.
[] Advanced Wards (will need Bloodraven's transcribed First Men's lore on wards)
-[] For our (at the moment unbuilt) keep,
-[] For Shadow Tower,
-[] For Inquisition/Government structures.
[] Research into making rituals to be used by out subjects.
[] Better ways to train mages:
-[] Hail to Glory Most Ancient: Dany tells you she can try to teach others who bear the Dragon-blood to call on the glory and might of those Most Ancient... save one. It would be perilous for mind and spirit both, but great too would be the reward.
-[] Viserys action for Sorcerers
-[] Velen and Xor for Bards,
-[] Lya/Naria/Teana for Wizards/Archivists,
-[] Naria/Lotus Leshi for Druids (non-OG-aligned),
-[] Garin/Glyra for rogues and stuff.
[] Further research into Memory-Moss (anti-Illithid weapon?).
[] Lys Mossforge research (more templates, more creatures, more efficiency).
[] CotF/Minotaurs repopulation research (we have talked CotF into trying weird stuff, but we haven't made even first steps into actually
doing anything).
[] Library stuff:
-[] Bronze Book of the Warg Kings (?).
-[] Iron-Bound Tome (we should fucking read it already).
-[] The Golden Egg (the stuff is likely just heavily cyphered, will probably be "the source of lore" needed, as per DP'd ruling on first pages of quest, to make Alchemists).
-[] Spellbooks we have captured but never went through.
[] Elysium Fruit experiments:
-[] Feeding them to outsiders, making cousine to sell later at higher price to Opaline Vault, etc.
-[] Putting one through a Flask of Crimson Life,
for shit and giggles.
[] Further research The Wall (We'll need
a lot of buffs for willsaves here).
[] Various assorted artifacts:
-[] Flask of Crimson Life
--[] If there are any, any aftereffects of use/making/storing potions with it, whatsoever.
-[] Anti-Human sacrificial dagger of... erm... that girl from Lys. It's probably something important, if severely depowered.
-[] Dark Sun Dagger (kind of scary stuff. Still, we probably should try to learn more about it).
-[] 2 Broken Rune Guardians.
-[] Minotaur Chains (Arcana).
-[] Star Seeker's Anchor (Arcana).
[] "Strange Shadow" captured during fighting TIamat Cleric that was since then kept in Smoke Confinement.
[] Valyrian Wingship Plans completion (near-epic/epic levels task. Still doable with Naria's bonuses and time).
[] Grafts-making (researching Devilish grafts for a way to make our own, not tainted with conceptual fuckmothering).
[] Corpse Cage
-[] It's principles of work and if it's possible to replicate it with a different designated sort of recipient in mind. Also making more of it.
[] Deep Ones History (we have a book and someone who can make epic-level relevant rolls in Knowledge (Planes). We totally should learn everything we can about them In-character).
