I don't think Garm would appreciate shirking responsibilities/etc.

How long do we have until we have to get back?

Looks like I hadn't voted yet. I'd put in with creating the shrine, but the overall vote is still strongly in favor of not risking the time. (The update never specified what a "long time" was supposed to mean, either.)

You aren't totally worthless!

    • You apologize to the dwarf, and thank him for his time. Unfortunately, you must get back to Mannkev, risking being late doesn't sound like a good idea. You quickly hurry to his mansion and knock upon the gate. After a few minutes, he comes out and let's you in.

    "A bit earlier then I was expecting." He mutters as he leads you inside the house. You take a seat on a plush and comfortable chair inside a siting room, while he begins to speak with you.

    "In the first test I gave you, you called upon a deity to help you, instead of doing it all on your own merits. In the second test I gave you, you panicked, and even froze yourself in the process of trying to stop the flames. And finally, you were both cryptic and stupidly idealistic when answering me." As he goes on, your face starts to fall, and you begin to get up to leave.

    "I will take you." You sit back down, shocked.

    "In the first test, although you did get divine assistance, you proved you had at least the basics of arcane skill. In the next, even though you panicked, you still listened and did not flee, even manging to protect yourself. And finally, you showed at least a modicum of intelligence in your response. I don't have high hopes for you, girl, but I will as teach you."

    "But before we begin, there are few things. First, I assume you have the payment?" You quickly hand him 18 gold. "Good. While you are here, your room and board will be taken care of. Simple fare only, you want something fancy, you need to buy it yourself. Secondly, what spells do you know?"

    [] Tell him all of them
    [] Tell him all of them except your summoning spells
    [] Tell him about only the ones he already knows about
    [] Some other combination? (Wrote In)

    In your training, what do you focus on?

    [] Improving your base power
    [] Improving your skill with your spells

    In your (litte) free time, what do you do? (Choose One)

    [] Build that Shrine.
    [] Study your Spellbook
    [] Buy things
    -[] What?
    [] Train more
    -[] Power
    -[] Spells
    [] Just explore the town, get more familiar with it.

    • Wow, been a while since I read this.

    And of course now I'm thinking on characters I want to craft her after and they both wear skin-tight pieces. Goddammit internet. For reference I was thinking of Nasu-Scathach (Red-Eyes, Lance, Magic, etc.) and Muv-luv's Beatrix (Red-Eyes, Black Hair, kind of insane from what little I've gathered on her)... actually the latters Teen picture may be a good one for right now, but my computer has issues linking from SV/SB to wikia hosted pictures so I can't grab any, sorry.

    Slow Time is counted with the summoning spells for don't reveal, unless you specifically vote otherwise. (I didn't forgot about it, no way :whistle:)

    Anyways, most of what took this update so long was me trying to come up with new mechanics. Basically, you are going to both spell training and base training, and focusing on one of them just gives you a bonus to that type. This vote is for next week. (After that, the Hero comes to town and their will be a vote on what to do about it)

    I feel a bit cautious about revealing the summoning spells.
    Bonus training for skill. Someday we might be able to dust a room without killing someone!
    And I'd like to get that shrine done. Having an 'in' with a god seems useful.

    There is a reason not to actually. Summoning Spells are noted to be rare, and Slow Time is almost certainly rare. For a Novice to know and be able to cast those spells seems rather unlikely, and he's going to want to know where we got those spells.

    Fair enough. Edited.
     
    ... But we didn't call upon a god, it just sort of... happened.
    Should we mention that?

    So much yes with that.

    [X] Tell him all. Well as long as it doesn't involve that one thing you resolved to never speak about to anyone...

    Not like he wouldn't figure them out regardless, he seems like a capable enough person. Besides, when a mentor decides to teach, it's in the best interest for the student to show their full capabilities. Regardless of origin.

    [X] Improve your skills with spells. We will be the MASTER of ALL of the spells.

    Better to be skilled than to be powerful.

    [X] Explore the town a little bit, meet the locals. I'm really wondering where all the bars/taverns are in this town...

    I figure that we as people need to get out more.
