Speaking of we may want to codify our armour mastery. Being able to make all greys tireless would be a massive boon.

You know, this talk about the forgetability mark has me thinking: maybe we should commission a painting or two of Mathilde?
Just in case we ever get it, and also so people can put a face to our deeds in the future.

This makes me wonder what would happen if instead of making time run a little bit slower, we do the opposite and make it run a little bit faster. Would that be an army buff? Make people react just a bit faster and all.
I feel like Mathilde was one of the ones who spent several months missing classes for this.

Maybe, but I can see some problems with the idea that we'd need to solve first. Number one would be including a targeting/friend-or-foe mechanism- if it affects everybody caught in the area, there's a very good chance you'd end up buffing some enemies too. Number two would be having the people using the buff be actually still able to use act and fight at full capacity; time acceleration is likely to be just as disorienting as time deceleration, even if the effects are positive.

Yeah, remember that the winds tend to make human wizards have some overarching personality traits, explosive tempers for brights, peerless arrogance for lights, wildness and adhd for ambers, grey wizards tend to be cagey and paranoid, so they tend to build up a spy network... (regardless of what level they're on even a journeyman will likely have some contacts wherever he's stationed/journeyed too.

I'll proudly admit I laughed loudly when I read that. Hitting +150 on learning a battlemagic. It's a shame you can't master it on a learning roll... (And yes, I did go to the spellbook to check, just in case.)

I love that he brought his favourite chair along.
Mathilde: "I skipped Diplomacy class to learn algebra so I could estimate how old you are!"
Melkoth: "Sensible."
Regimand: "NO."

Is... that a thing? In-quest I mean. Do we get anything for finishing all the spells? My understanding was 'no'.

Holy shit. Let's go.
I assume he knows at this point that our Staff of Mistery makes the entire process actually pretty safe? Because god I want some reactions from either of them to Mathilde's continued bullshit.

Aha, merely all of the remaining spells left to go.
Assuming I didn't miss one.
Thats a lot of battle magic spells. Dunno if it will be easier to create approved spells though.
Feels like we're actually quite far from that trait.

I wouldn't say allergic. The general action pattern since establishing herself in K8P has been:
1 action Max+Johann
1 action Ducklings+EIC
2 job actions
1 self-improvement action
1 blue-sky/flavor-of-the-week action

I disagree in the strongest possible terms; given his mastery of using Ulgu to do wibbly wobbly things with time, he's the most likely candidate for inventing a time machine, which would facitiate angry time traveling apprentices from the future dropping in for a friendly visit. This is a good thingMelkoth has jumped up in both my list of favorite characters and in my list of possible threats. Given his mastery of using Ulgu to do wibbly wobbly things with time, he's the most likely candidate for inventing a time machine, something which must be prevented at all costs, lest Mathilde drown in a tidal wave of angry apprentices.
And I want time traveling apprentices from the future as much as Omegahugger wants Abel back.

Im kinda surprised we didnt roll a first-time casting for MMM.
I mean we did get 160+ on the roll. I suspect that was enough to get Ulgu to sit up and beg like a good boy especially with the staff helping.

It's only Fiendishly Complex for us, and we rolled so high that just the overflow would have made failing the roll mathematically impossible anyways.

...Mathilde is officially bullshit. Now I get why Boney have me a meow rating on my comment about playing with metaphorical tigers. Considering that we got plus twenty from Regimand while learning Smoke and Mirrors, which wasn't his area of expertise, that is a very big number indeed.

Honestly, I've been getting increasingly worried that Borek is going to embarrass us in front of all the people we're gathering.
Call it vain, selfish, whatever. The more the problems pile up, the more it looks like we're dragging people into a shitshow.

Presumably the first would facilitate the second.
Speaking of Mathilde and bullshit it struck me as odd that Melkoth was looking suspiciously at Wolf of all beings and then I realized why might be. He has taught that spell to a lot of people, in this own words three generations of Battle Wizards, he has taught to to people with favorable traits and people with high learning, he knows broadly what that looks like. From that perspective that Mathilde did might look odd:
[Learning Melkoth's Mystifying Miasma: Learning, 91+28+5(Library: Ulgu)+20(Coin)+20(Room of Dawn and Dusk)
+28 Learning: he would know how that look, this is Mathilde's ability to take in the information he is giving it to her
+5 Library: Ulgu: he knows what is in those books, he has used their like before, hell he may even have written them
+20 Room of Dawn and Dusk: he is used to working in such conditions the whole college is shrouded in it
So riddle me this, how did Mathilde roll 111 on a 1d100? She did not just get lucky, he got unnaturally impossibily lucky. If this were any other LM I would not think they would notice the subtle machinations of the gambler, but this is Melkoth teaching his signature spell.
So, something is off, she is learning too fast, too well. Is it the familiar? Suspicion comes naturally to Grey Wizards.

I thought that petty magic was essentially eight different spells with an effect so simple and replicable that seven moderately talented Magisters can develop said spells using just the insights gained from the original developer.
