Not sure if it's already been asked, but is creating a Fog bank (without the confusing property) that we, and some small number of allies can see through something we could achieve?

It's been specifically floated before. At large scale it would be Battle Magic, but smaller scales are easier.

My output is more a silver lining to various personal problems than any technique or cultivatable trait. A sense of purpose from keeping the quest going doesn't require cooperating neurotransmitters.

If personal problems result in having lots of free time and also creates a need to feel productive and connect with other people that the quest fulfills, I totally understand. I'm glad the community is helping you. And this really is a huge accomplishment. Your output and writing quality are remarkable, easily professional.

Mantle of Mist: Visible vapours are drawn to you. Fog and mist makes it easier to hide; smoke and gases are rather less convenient. +1 Intrigue, potential trouble with any gas-based weapons.

Huh. Not sure if anyone posted but at least we got a +1 Intrigue out of it.

@BoneyM out of curiosity if we learn how to influence this particular arcane mark, could we get temporary resistance to poisonous gases by making them pool away from vulnerable areas such as our nose or direct skin? (Shield with robe or similar. )

Resistance being the key word, yes. They'd still work on you but to a lesser extent as long as you're able to maintain concentration.

@BoneyM I think this got forgotten at some point in your sleep cycle. Also, my condolences regarding said sleep cycle; I went through something similar but less than half as extreme some years back (also on a medication change) and that was bad enough. Hope things settle out soon for you 😪

This just coped for me.

Holy shit King-Bro just made a human a Thane.

The Dwarfs that thought him radical must now just think him just Nuts...

Actually... that's maybe not a bad thing.

A lot of rulers in history cultivated an image of eccentricity to even madness to get away with "strange" reforms. This was a common way to get a change past the church in medieval Europe.

You can get away with stuff as a "mad but benevolent" king that you can't as a "radical reformist" king.

Vote human relations! Looking forward to a bunch of these, dwarves seem stable for now:

[X] Gretel, who's apparently spending her newly-earned wealth to make herself at home.

Fun, opportunity to talk to her about our relationship with Ranald and hers with mor. It seems we both know more than we should of the other.

[ ] Max, during the few breaks in the silence as the two of you worked on Queekish in the Room of Serenity.

Maybe but we got a glimpse and I am happy with that.

[X] Elder Hluodwica, as the Halflings prepare for their first proper harvest festival in this new home.

Want to see this, want to get her measure.

[X] Francesco Caravello, proud leader of the Undumgi and possible future Thane.

Needed. On a couple of different levels, this guy has become one of our linchpins.

[X] Oswald Oswaldson, newly-minted Chief Bombardier of the Undumgi.

Bouyant bombastic bombardier boy? Bonus!

[X] Soizic, newly elevated to military leader of the Undumgi.

Y'all know I'm here for this.

[X] Sir Ruprecht Wulfhart, as the new home of the Winter Wolves takes shape.

I like our resident grizzled veteran wracked by worries over his choice to leave the empire.

[ ] Barak Varr, to watch the progress of the canal.

Could be very cool, but out of theme for this turn.

[ ] Roswita, as she campaigns through Hunger Wood.

I like her, but I kinda want the next interesting we have to be her initiation.

[ ] Kasmir, to see how he's keeping himself busy in Sylvania.

Loved the omake, would love to see more, but want to focus on our people this turn.

[X] Anton, to see how his firearm factory is going.

Let's show up for the ribbon cutting!

[X] Wilhelmina, to see how she's going when she's not a terrifying financial juggernaut.

Quite possibly our oldest friend, let's not abandon.

[ ] Julia, See what she has gotten up to as Stirland's most experienced spy master.

Curious, but you know that 'sudden contact from the famous grey wizard who helped you years ago' is going to kick off an adventure arc for her. ;)

[ ] The Amber College, to see how your donation of Lustrian eggs is going.

Not actually all that interested in reptiles, esp if the journeymen we knew aren't there.

[ ] Investigate the aftermath of the Empire's campaigns against the Skaven in Nuln and Ubersreik.

Curious here too, ties back to our credibility with the highest human ranks.
Edit: However, it's this or Oswald, so....

[ ] Investigate the aftermath of Bretonnia's campaigns against the Skaven in Mousillon and the Black Chasm.

Nah, outside our area.

[ ] Kragg, who's begun to be seen around the Karak once more, indicating he might be finishing his study of the rune-axe you and Johann found.

Like, but we've spent a lot of social on him.

[X] Check in on the Gong Farmers and the Niter Factory.

This was a side note even ages ago, though it started us on the pro-dwarf path. Wonder what's up.

[X] Check in on your fief in Stirland.

Ah yeah, goat gets it!

Was it an accident or deliberate that this ended up sounding like a set-up for a lewd omake?

That said, as the story of Soizic goes on it's becoming very likely that it's going to influence any future appearances she might have. I'm enjoying it immensely.

I am so happy to know you are enjoying them, and honestly please do not read too much into my sigh past really wanting to contribute a part of this world you are building. The fact that you mentioned influence literally made me squee on the train this morning. I understand completely about concern over conflicting characterizations and future flexibility driving the tag and I agree- better to keep my stuff apocropha.

But seriously- VOTERS! I would kill for some more canon characterization of Francesco and Oswald and Hubert and Soizic, so let's get on that!
