I didn't like how I handled it so I scrapped it and just gave you the hugareida.

Check. Do we need an instructor other than our various current options for Clearwater, or can we just start learning that?

In fact, hey Blackhand, can you teach Clearwater?

As for the current topic of discussion, you've had other peoples aspects added to yours before. Not saying it would be the same

Interesting. Probably both the Felag and when Folkmarr just gave us some Orthstirr via the Jarl thing.
 
Hmm..

There are one/two/three instances I know of when aspects were added to our own:

1) When Blackhand took over in our fight against Lori Burisson. Our Aspects changed to match Blackhand's Aspects (?) - I don't think this was it though.
2) When Folkmarr stripped off a part of his Virthing to give to us.
3) (Possibly) when we shame-striked the Outlaw so hard that some of his Orthsirr (i.e Aspects) joined ours and then assimilated into them.

We can probably learn Clearwater from Asva, it would also let us have an on-screen interaction with her.

You can, yes. My apologies

Also, I know Shard spent a few dice on the playdates, but did anyone else spend anything on anything?

I spent two on bolstering our Fence Making, which brings it up to a total of 3 rolls

So, that aside, I guess the real benefits of high quality stuff in your Soulscape mostly come into play in Realm 2, with only relatively minor benefits until your break through?

Cool. Added instead of putting more into Fylgja this turn (we do that starting next turn). We do want Clearwater, and in less than two years, so at more than 1d6 per turn.

Alectai is spending two on our fence-building and Skippy is spending one to have the proposed Flashfire Cleave + Emberwind combo go the way it's intended. Both are listed in the plan.

I think that's everything this turn.

The multiattack trick definitely needs Emberwind for the precision effect.

Hmm, names.

Trifire Bolts, if it makes 3 (which seems fair for a low damage non AOE Ranged multiattack trick) and it goes by regular trick rules where higher mastery equals lower cost.
Seeking Flames, if it makes more per level of mastery and instead has a fixed cost (like Countershock).

So, before I call the vote, who, exactly, are you having come over for the playdates?

How many are we allowed to arrange? This is over the course of like, 2 months, and we don't know OOC how many of these kids are related to each other or where they live.

We actually already had a vote on this back before Horra's Trial, and came up with this list:

Klaus - Age 4, Friendly, Bold, Charming (Incredible Potential)
Markvard - Age 2, Big, Loud, Friendly (Unstoppable Potential)
Ryggia - Age 3, Bold, Charming, Rowdy (Incredible Potential)
Helga - Age 4, Quiet, Bold, Quick (Incredible Potential)
Kadrina - Age 2, Sharp, Charming, Rowdy (Unstoppable Potential)
Siggunr - Age 3, Bold, Charming, Friendly (Incredible Potential)

I dunno if we can do all of those in one action, though. We did at least set up future meetings at that time due to that vote, though.

What does potential actually mean in this case? Like, assuming Kadrina goes down the average woman's path as she grows, would she just be a great wife...? A bunch of high level skill tricks? Is it possible for them to not live up to their potential?

Well at his age, that isn't really under his control. If he's one (that is, between 12-24 months), he can probably barely walk and talk on his own, let alone have the present of mind to bathe himself.

True, lmao. Maybe his parents are also dirty, or something. Or he's truly just that unlucky.

It may also indicate a propensity to get dirty a lot more often, to the point that his parents have difficulty keeping up (ie: he is bathed as often as other children, but goes looking for dirt to play in more often).

That's sort of what I was presuming, yeah (though Rowdy might mean she has Bloodthirsty and, combined with Unstoppable Potential, is likely to pursue a warrior's path even absent our intervention...she's the only girl that might be true of, though). And I imagine 'Unstoppable' means they'll live up to it if they survive but the other levels could be stifled, yes.

I've added in additional details that include that information. You can invite as many as you want, though you may want to keep it roughly equal to your own children. You can also specify which of your children you want to try to 'set them up with'.

I'm also opening it up to the entire roster of children

Starting hamingja, essentially.

That potential feels wasted on just being a 'amazing' housewife, but it is what it is. I imagine those with Incredible/Unstoppable potential would be able to excel at anything they wanted to in life as long as they put the effort into it.
