Sample Grimores

[SSWarlock]

As part of the social contract of Brithini society, if you follow your caste and duties to the island well, then you are annually rewarded by staving off age once per year?

Yeesh! Talk about a stagnating society...

Yeesh! Talk about a stagnating society...

Yep, that's the Brithini...

 

[Lord High Munchkin]

Brithini have almost no potential as adventurers, as to do so would be to break their defined caste duties — and thus start the inevitable slide towards death.

Remember the original Malkioni adventurer/explorer caste from the Land of Logic were the Vadeli.

And Vadeli love exploring things...!

Brithini have almost no potential as adventurers, as to do so would be to break their defined caste duties — and thus start the inevitable slide towards death.

But a renegade Britihini Zzabur, who was good at his job but committed the ultimate sin- reported another Zzabur... now he roams the badlands, wanted by the Law... A Renegade

(cue Lorenzo Lamas hair shake!)

 

[Lord High Munchkin]

Yes, but now doomed to die.

 

[SJE]

Yes, but now doomed to die.

Not if he's got Abjure Age. Because, y'know, he's worth it.

:lol:

 

[PhilHibbs]

Yes, but now doomed to die.

Not if he's got Abjure Age. Because, y'know, he's worth it.

:lol:

...which he has to cast every three hours, costing him 80 MP per day...

 

[PhilHibbs]

Correction to my last pot - he still has to cast it every three hours, but it only costs 16MP, 2 per casting, not 10 per casting, I was counting the number of points of manipulation as being 1MP for each point of manipulation like it used to be pre-MRQ.
*Update*: The Enchanting Ritual (Sorcery Spell) is, of course, perfect for this.
