February Activity Check

[magicademymods]

February Activity Check Welcome to the first activity check for Diatu Magicademy! A reminder of our rules: You must provide one log thread with at least 5 comments from your character. You must provide either an additional log thread with at least 5 comments from your character, or a network thread with at least 10 comments from your character. If you have some activity during the month, but not enough to pass AC, you may request a strike. To clear the strike, you must provide double activity the subsequent month. Activity is valid for posts made between the close of applications in February and the close of applications in March -- so this month, any activity made between the opening of the game and 8 PM Eastern time, Wednesday, March 6th. Activity must be submitted by Saturday, March 9th at 8 PM Eastern time. Also, as a reminder, the results of your Actions will be posted as a response to your activity check. If you haven't chosen any, you have until AC closes to do so.

An Item of Power (on loan from from Professor Mala): Intimation and Communication: The Fine Line Between Learning and Dictating. This book concerns using Intimation techniques to communicate with others without violating their minds in any way, shape, or form. Though focused on humans, the book may offer both clues and guidance to communicating with animals in an ethical way.

Lena's efforts in learning the Catastrophe Cannon have resulted in the following upgrade:

The Catastrophe Cannon (Upgraded)

Despite its name, the Catastrophe Cannon is more of wand with a grip like a crossbow, meant to be aimed and pointed. Small enough to be easily concealed, this (terribly illegal) item possesses the power to inflict a curse of bad luck on whosoever it is discharged towards. If the wielder is Lena, she may control either degree of disaster inflicted upon the victim (slight to massive), or the general form that bad luck takes (e.g. tripping, trouble with bureaucracy, friendships or romance...) Any other wielder may not choose either. If used on the same person more than once in twenty-four hours, the second and further discharges become visible as a connection between the wielder and the victim, making their source obvious.

After stuffing the npcs in an rng blender it oddly enough selected Sicenzi Trent & Aregway Porsfin! If that's okay.

You need not select now. These gains may be saved as "wildcards" for your future uses of regard.

Rin's efforts at learning Thaumaturgy through experience have resulted in:

Positive regard from Professor King
Positive regard from Headmaster Birony
Positive regard from "Anastara Diatu"

Rin's efforts at shaping his flames have resulted in a Special Connection with: Antonius Trammel. Very intrigued by a power that has not been suppressed by coming her by virtue of being physiological, Professor Trammel has (in his ever-charming and respectful way) requested some small measure of Rin's time to study these powers, if Rin is willing. Professor Trammel believe this may be a key to understanding the nature of Sundered power suppression.

Rin's efforts at inappropriate conduct (study of a power not contained within the Curricula) have resulted in:
No consequences. (A roll of 92.)

Special note: This month, Rin's familiar, the Obsidian Egg, will begin heating up substantially, with cracks forming on its exterior as the month advances.
