Moratorium's over so away we goooo.
[X] Plan To the Heart with Apprentices
-[X] Refuse the Hearth: Allow the King of the Skies to consume it. Gain standing with the Skarrenraz Ankor and KoTS. ???
-[X] Boon from the Sky: A bundle of your crest feathers. [Cost: Start Request, [Difficult] Plated Skies Pt. 1:]
-[X] Apprentice Hunt: Go out and trawl through the local and regional populace to find a beardling or two worth your time. No stone unturned, no clan unchecked, no record unread, even the Foundling Wards! [Cost: 1 Action] Apprentice Vote after Turn Results. 1 action.
-[X] Dragon Ogre Autopsy: You've found yourself with a bevy of corpses to study. Dragon Ogres aren't an unknown foe, but you've never been privy to the results of the few limited autopsies done in the long history of your people. [Cost: 6 actions] Student of the Odd will proc. 2 Actions.
--[X] Destructive Research: You have very many corpses. Being a bit more invasive in your understanding will mean more work gets done, but will cost you. [Cost: 3 Shaggoth Corpses, 9 Dragon Ogre Corpses] Gain 2 Progress, can be taken multiple times. Take Twice.
-[X] C-c-combo Tester!: Write-in format for a Rune Combo you want Snorri to test. Format is as follows: [Placeholder Combo Name] Equipment type: [Rune 1, Rune 2, Rune 3] [Cost: 1 action] If a rune you want requires special ingredients that you don't have access to I will alert you. 2 actions.
--[X] Valaya's Care, Banner: Master Rune of Valaya, Rune of Healing, Rune of Fortitude.
--[X] Valaya's Sanctuary, Banner: Master Rune of Valaya, Rune of Healing, Rune of Sanctuary.
So the idea behind this plan is to give the KoTS the Heart of Kholek both for dramatic irony since Kholek failed in eating the King of the Skies own heart and to set up the King of the Skies armor request. The purpose of asking for the feathers is that honestly I think he's effectively paid for the armor so this is to satisfy pride and give us a selection of feathers to use when making Master Runes of Grimnir either for the King of the Skies with his weapons, or weapons or Banners for dwarves of Kraka Drakk.
Further on we have the Dragon Ogre autopsy so that we can hopefully either use them for the King of the Skies' armor or the Healing Banner I decided to go for a couple pages back and to also just find out what they're useful for generally. I expect many to come hunting for Kraka Drakk when it gets particularly stormy. We have absolute shittons of Dragon Ogre Corpses, 15 Shaggoths and 45 Dragon Ogres. We have a looooooooot to spend so might as well. Finally we go hunting for more wonderful apprentices and test out two different combo possibilities for the Banner.
In terms of combo testing I only want to do one for two reasons: I am pretty confident that Valaya's Sanctuary will create a combo, and for my second reason if I find a combo out of any of the three I suggested I'm going straight for it and discarding the other options. I don't want to spend two turns testing combos. If it fails, we'll we're kinda shit out of luck then. Ain't many runes to do with healing.
[X] Plan To the Heart With No Apprentices
-[X] Refuse the Hearth: Allow the King of the Skies to consume it. Gain standing with the Skarrenraz Ankor and KoTS. ???
-[X] Boon from the Sky: A bundle of your crest feathers. [Cost: Start Request, [Difficult] Plated Skies Pt. 1:]
-[X] [Simple] Weaponized Wings: You can't arm the Griffons of the Skarrenraz Ankor with Gromril, while lesser in population than the hold they make up for it in sheer bulk that needs to be protected. What you can do, however, is take part in King Otrek's efforts to arm them with Runic weaponry and good solid steel armour. It will mostly consist of you spending time fitting a few select Griffons, likely the eldest and most powerful given your position, with Rune weapons and maybe a suit of Gromril armour if they're important enough. [Cost: 1 action] Productivity Like No Other will proc. 1 Action.
-[X] Dragon Ogre Autopsy: You've found yourself with a bevy of corpses to study. Dragon Ogres aren't an unknown foe, but you've never been privy to the results of the few limited autopsies done in the long history of your people. [Cost: 6 actions] Student of the Odd will proc. 2 Actions.
--[X] Destructive Research: You have very many corpses. Being a bit more invasive in your understanding will mean more work gets done, but will cost you. [Cost: 3 Shaggoth Corpses, 9 Dragon Ogre Corpses] Gain 2 Progress, can be taken multiple times. Take Twice.
--[X] Prod Yorri: See if your master has something in his noggin, he spent a decade fighting these things. [Cost: 1 prod] Gain 1d3 of progress. 1 Prod.
-[X] C-c-combo Tester!: Write-in format for a Rune Combo you want Snorri to test. Format is as follows: [Placeholder Combo Name] Equipment type: [Rune 1, Rune 2, Rune 3] [Cost: 1 action] If a rune you want requires special ingredients that you don't have access to I will alert you. 2 actions.
--[X] Valaya's Care, Banner: Master Rune of Valaya, Rune of Healing, Rune of Fortitude.
--[X] Valaya's Sanctuary, Banner: Master Rune of Valaya, Rune of Healing, Rune of Sanctuary.
This one is as above but has Yorri prods for Yorri interaction and no apprentice hunting so we can give the Griffons weapons and armor.
[X] Plan Deck of Many Things
-[X] Refuse the Hearth: Allow the King of the Skies to consume it. Gain standing with the Skarrenraz Ankor and KoTS. ???
-[X] Boon from the Sky: A bundle of your crest feathers. [Cost: Start Request, [Difficult] Plated Skies Pt. 1:]
-[X] The Movement of things: The Rune of Waking or Animation as some would call it is a rare rune. How Master Yorri knows both the regular and Master Rune could be explained by either a harrowing adventure full of terror, beasties and treasure or by something as mundane as asking a friend, you could never be sure with the man. Still, this was a rune that, to your frustration, you haven't had much chance to tinker with. Maybe just a peak? [Cost: 8 actions] Student of the Odd will proc. 2 Action.
--[X] Prod Yorri: Master Yorri, by his own account, has a good idea about how gronti and their ilk function.[Cost: 1 prod] Gain 1d2+1 Progress, can be taken multiple times. 3 Prods.
-[X] Dragon Ogre Autopsy: You've found yourself with a bevy of corpses to study. Dragon Ogres aren't an unknown foe, but you've never been privy to the results of the few limited autopsies done in the long history of your people. [Cost: 6 actions] Student of the Odd will proc. 1 Actions.

-[X] C-c-combo Tester!: Write-in format for a Rune Combo you want Snorri to test. Format is as follows: [Placeholder Combo Name] Equipment type: [Rune 1, Rune 2, Rune 3] [Cost: 1 action] If a rune you want requires special ingredients that you don't have access to I will alert you. 2 actions.
--[X] Master of Storms, Armor: Master Rune of Steel, Rune of Lightning, Rune of Cold
--[X] Valaya's Sanctuary, Banner: Master Rune of Valaya, Rune of Healing, Rune of Sanctuary.
This one is a variation on the To the Heart plan line, with the intent here to be leveraging Yorri as much as possible. With the arrangement of prods on Yorri and actions for Movement of Things we get at minimum, 2 Progress from our Actions, and 6 progress from prodding Yorri. That will complete it in one go. I'm doing something similar for the Dragon Ogre Autopsy, 4 progress from using Destructive Research, 1 progress from our own actions, and 1 progress minimum from Yorri.
That gets all of our research done, feeds the heart to the King of the Skies, takes up the boon with things useful to both him and us, and does combo testing on two different things. For the King's Armor combo I'm going with the idea of "Master of the North Wind, imbue lightning and cold into this steely Armor." with the idea that Steel is both conductive for electricity and heat.
I'd like to have a combo for the King of the Skies armor before next turn rolls around. Cause at that point our best bet is using the Theme option.

-[X] Prod for Prod: Master Yorri is most certainly more learned and experienced than you are, but mayhaps you have something worth his time as well? The secrets of the Rune Metal Adamant, your discovery of flaming comets? [Cost: 1 action] Gain x3 Yorri prods. 1 Action.

-[X] Diction Direction: Master Yorri's Rune of Translation is serviceable, but it's in a position that you can very clearly see areas for improvement. This would certainly be easier if you knew Master Yorri was right now, but you have the Rune and seven centuries under your belt, so it's not an insurmountable challenge for a Runelord.
