Fair, though I imagine with our personal relationship and him having seen at least a few of our exploits we'll probably still make it in. Yay, elf friend!

I mean, apparently every single one of the Grey College's entrances is actually just a portal, so in that sense I could hypothetically it being possible to just make another entrance to the Grey College that just so happens to be thousands of miles away from the others.
I imagine that it would take some serious power to disjoint space enough to allow for that level of shenanigans, though.

That might be where the Eight Peaks Waystones could come in handy.
I mean, yay, but also also the fact that they went, "We better promote her now because the place she's about to go is so bad she deserves the best sendoff we can manage," makes the Expedition seem more ominous than every other warning has managed.

Think that might just be you. I thought it was most ominous around the first time we got the idea the expedition leader was a little soft in the head.
This comes off to me more as reason to come back and reap the benefits.

Also, did anybody else notice the other guys just... appearing out of thin air? I wonder if that was just an advanced Ulgu trick, or something to do with the nature of the plane itself? Either way, I can't wait till we learn how to do it ourselves.

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if being able to call yourself a Lady Magister actually does help when you're invading hell and smiting demons. It's the kind of place where your self-image can start to have concrete effects.
Nah, just ask Gazul if we can use his driveway and then walk across Morr's front lawn. Might need to get Algard to let you in, though - I doubt the Grey College is the type to leave the keys under the welcome mat.

Cool, thank you! I look forward to the day someone calls us a zhufi with the intention of being insulting and we can throw our Grandmastery in their face.
(For those who don't feel like going to the wiki, dal is a Khazalid word for "good" that also means old and, I suspect, "proven.")
I like this idea.

So since this is the literal Dimension most of the Grey's Battle Magic taps into is anyone else interested in learning more Battle Magic now?

Why not both? We already know Ulgu can do funky tricks with time and space thanks to Melkoth and Algard respectively, and the plane sounds as Ulgu as something can get. So an Ulgu trick, probably only possible in something like a Storm of Magic, made easier and safer to perform by the Ulgu-attuned plane.

So I was going over our character page to see any other change besides the Lady Magister rank and noticed this nickname? Did we just gain it or was it something we gained earlier and I just missed somehow? I wouldn't be surprised if I did I'm not that active on this thread after all.

...God, I hope so. Given Av and what it could let us do, that would be a neat trick up our sleeve. Depending on what exactly it is. Mini-pocket dimension inside the pocket-dimension? Really really good illusion? A quantum state of Schrodinger-catness?

Asarnil called us that at our reunion.
Honestly Grey College best college. This was so satisfying to read.

I wonder if we could get a Ranaldite Cleric to cast Poor Man's Face while we chill out in liminal shadow world nearby to see if Ranald stops by to rifle through the loot.

This is my favorite proposal so far.
...She set that up on our robes when we visited to ask her for info about the Wastes, didn't she? It's like that tradition the infosec people have where, when you leave for a new job, they give you a knife with your work password engraved in it. And then we ditched those robes and she had to do it the hard way at the last minute.

Ah thank you
MELKOTH: I'm going to be straight with you; we all were waiting for Algard to give the signal and then we all cast Invisibility right before you came in.
For extra nuance, this has two built-in assumptions: that the leader of a guild is merely first among equals rather than a step above Grandmaster, and that the most important pinnacle of craftsmanship is the Dalokrulaz, the things made by Grandmasters, rather than the Dalokrulak, the status of being Grandmaster.
It's not like she's young. Isn't she pushing 40?
It's why I wanted to use that transcendant boon to get a dwarf treasure to slow down our aging. We know it can be done as just a side-effect going by Gotrek's Axe, so it should be possible to do it intentional as a main effect.

We're in the middle of developing a Battle Magic spell, so what I'm wondering is if this extra special info has any relevant bits for us to use.
... I can't help but notice that the infinite swirling plane that exists between the boundaries of reality and the aether has a floor. Is that an intrinsic property or something Teclis installed while putting a college in?
