[X] plan first steps:
-[X] Practice Mana Sense and Control in meditation, and practice with Magic Missile to get a sense of how it handles. This will mean an abbreviated but still generally sufficient physical exercise to maintain the currently decaying stats skills at the trending subrank.
-[X] It might take an hour, but April knows enough to make a very crude magical focus out of the myrtle with mana infusement. It'd lessen the internal cost of Magic Missile for as long as it lasted, which was maybe three or four months.
-[X] The spear provided is not salvageable. She should make another one. You think you found some black-steel to make a tip out of. It's still likely to break after a few months.
-[X] April needs a way to detect at much wider ranges monsters – whether of the beastial, or human kind- to survive. She has the baseline perception, but you could send obvious eddies to teach her Manasight or Farsight. (Progress required: 80 points.) (The character will learn either/or.) (Farsight leads to the Diviniation tree. Manasight leads to Advanced Mana Concepts.)
-[X] April is a new sorceress, and lacks, intentionally, many of the starting skills a normal citizen of the Osteria would have. But she has been exposed to a lot of fire and death mana and Qi. You could increase the available fire mana to her and move it in a way that would lead her to experiment with unsuspecting mana. (Progress towards unlocking the Mana Skill: Form Neutral Mana. Progress points required: 140)
-[X] April, unknowingly, is cursed with Death Mana. You could work on purifying it from her before she gains Infernal traits. However, it must be a slow and spread out process. (Ongoing, has 35% Curse Progress. Each turn stops progress and decreases it by 5%.)(Possible side effects and complications if you take this every turn. Current Progress per turn: 3%)
-[X] You've just ascended, and feel sluggish. You cannot remanifest or even communicate. Your spells fizzle from lack of mana and you feel you will need to unlock them all over again. You will need to increase your mana to do so. (1/?)

-[X] Magic users usually use a dagger and firearm, or a quarterstaff they could imbue. You cannot make a firearm capable of channeling your mana, but a quarterstaff is possible. It'd also break eventually.
