LokiQuest: Re-Reshape and Retry (CK2)

Reader mode
Also might want to unlock magic this turn. Since while we do have the skill we can't actually start using it until we unlock it. And if we go the forging path we need to do that. And considering that we have a 3/5 for magic might want to work the thing we are good at for now.

@KnowledgeKing how many skill points did we get in the knowledge of magic?

I was asked to have it so people can see the rolls. So I'll use SV dice unless enough people say not to.
 
[] Plan: Low DC Loki

-[] Study: So you could be a great tactician instead? A general even.
--[] Strategy, DC 20

-[] Bring a present to the instructor or trainer, it couldn't hurt to have them like you more. DC 12

-[] Request Lessons from the Instructor on finance and how to run the kingdom. Surely he'd listen! DC 50

-[] Pull pranks on Thor. Those were always fun, and he never saw them coming! DC 15

-[] Pay extra attention to your Classes and try to excel! DC 15

-[] Ask a question: Ask Frigga why Thor, Odin, and every person on the list <classmate list> does not like you.

Alternatively

-[] Ask a question: Ask Heimdall if how much he can see, and if he sees anyone willing to be your friend.

Time to make practical use of that baby trait with the power of guilt. These questions could cause these adults to give us some help.

Can we go for frigga now? Just, I wanna not try to seek approval from people and spend time with the person who actively supports us and endows us with love.

Heimdall is cool but I really wanna go for Frigga

I think if we use the personal action to ask Frigga why no one likes us we may get some help. Or if we continue to fail diplo, maybe she'll teach us something else to make us happy. (magic?)

[] Now with Feeling

Try again to get Hand-to-Hand, I wouldn't mind going for Mother's tutelage but this is still more likely to succeed, we have to make a friend we've put in effort lets finish it, stewardship choice is just the easiest option to accomplish (because the lower DCs require other actions to do that are less likely to be achieved). Let's try and improve our Intrigue and pranks should do that, is fairly easy, and is a good way for Loki to decompress from such a bad turn. Easiest and needed learning action. And finally trying to dive into magic given we've read up on it and been failing our other endeavors makes sense to be what he strives towards.

I think we should befriend those three:

Elym - She is good with numbers. Will help us with the science part of inventor-smith Loki.

Osmond - Same as Elym

Sigyn - She seems nice. It would be good to have a friend that isn't as academically driven as the other two.
 
[] Setup and Safety

Martial:
----------
-[] Exercise, increase your strength, speed, and stamina, DC 35

Trying to use a generalized activity that can be applied to other physical actions.
Diplomacy:
---------------
- [] Bring a present to the instructor or trainer, it couldn't hurt to have them like you more. DC 12

Using a low DC action to build up to getting friends.
Stewardship:
--------------------
- [] Try to observe how Father ran the kingdom. Even if you couldn't sit in on meetings... DC 55

Trying to fix the situation with Odin and get stewardship bonus from learning it from a named character.
Intrigue:
--------------
- [] Study the classmates you don't know. Get the full rest of the picture. DC 15

This is hopefully going to allow Loki to figure out why he is being treated as an outcast.
Learning:
-------------
-[] Pay extra attention to your Classes and try to excel! DC 15

Low DC action that will help with other learning activities.
Personal:
-------------
-[] There was...something in you. You could feel it. Try to tap into that. DC, ??

This is the only way to learn magic, can't learn it from books.



Does the action [] Exercise, increase your strength, speed, and stamina, DC 35 lower other physical actions if it succeeds?
Does the action [] Pay extra attention to your Classes and try to excel! DC 15 lower learning actions if it succeed?
Will this action [] Study the classmates you don't know. Get the full rest of the picture. DC 15 allow Loki to figure out why he is disliked? @KnowledgeKing
 
If we had picked math, the DC for excelling in lessons would be 0 right now... That might be possible to succeed with these dice.

I mean, taking her for martial is only dc40 intrigue which is an easy pass and gives the lowest possible martial dc.

Her direct diplo is dc55 which i mean... It's higher but if you move past "the dice hate us" it's even odds.

her stewardship is dc65 so I'd reccomend something else there
she has no intrigue action that counts
He learning requires a success on her diplo so anything else
your question to her sounds smart

I'm thinking something like

Martial:
----------
[] Train: The expectations haven't changed
- [] With your mother, DC 40 Intrigue, DC 15 Martial

Diplomacy:
---------------
[] Convince Your Mother that you didn't NEED lessons from the instruction, but from her instead. DC 55

Stewardship:
--------------------
[] Request Lessons from the Instructor on finance and how to run the kingdom. Surely he'd listen! DC 50

Intrigue:
--------------

[] Study your classmates and get the lay of the land. Figure who does what, and how fun they were! DC 30

Learning:
-------------
[] Visit the Library, you've heard so much about all of the different books! So much opportunity, so little time...
- [] Continue Learning what you touched on last time. DC 40

Personal:
-------------
-[] Ask a question: Ask Frigga why Thor, Odin, and every person on the list <classmate list> does not like you.

Alternatively

[] Relationships: Spend time with some of your favorite people in the world!
- [] Mother

One thing Loki is successful at, is getting a read on his classmates. First, he notices that Amora is gone from the classroom completely. After some snooping, Loki finds out that Thor is the reason. Or at least, Megathor. Megathor, apparently lived up to his title of 'scalper of women' and cut Amora's beautiful blonde locks, for his...collection. In response, Amora cried and yelled at the prince, and told him to 'go jump off a bridge, you wicked child' and to everyone's surprise, Thor did just that. Thankfully, once Thor jumped, he was able to maneuver himself in mid-air and grab onto the bridge's ledge, stopping his fall. He then called out for help, and a guard came and saved him.

WHAT IS EVEN THE FUCK THOR????????

EDIT: Fuck doing anything with Thor. Pranks, friendship, training, any of that shit, fuck it. This isn't just "boisterous older brother", this is "abuser in training" shit here and I am beyond frustrated the adults did fucking nothing about Thor fucking scalping a girl.

Like, fuck me, Frigga, where the hell are you???

@KnowledgeKing do any of the adults know this happened?

I don't want to gamble on losing Frigga yet because the dice hate us. Odin already dislikes us so it is not much of a gamble to use his action.
