I will update this post as people post their merit XP spending towards it, having appointed myself Treasurer apparently! here's my original sanctum post, we need somebody to set up a standing spell for the Security 1 slot i believe someone mentioned a library but i don't recall who, i think it might have been crimson? as for who's moving in, i think thor and crimson at the very least, paracelsus is staying on his own, matryoshka still has his apartment but will probably spend a lot of time hanging out what with being the lonely separated middle-aged guy

oh drat it's gonna be a straight up mage bro party pad i do wonder how all these libraries and hallows are going to overlap meritwise though, ferrinus don't be a dick about this, let us have all kinds of hallows and libraries

can you even move a hallow i dont think you can, thats like saying "well my apartment is close to public transportation, so im going to take that aspect of it with me when i move into magebro pad"

I don't think a bunch of competing hallows would work very well (you can't really move a Place of Power you can only strengthen or weaken or awaken or subdue one) but several different private libraries does since the merit specifically provides for the difference between using your own library and using someone else's it's just a question of whether someone buys a library for the sanctum or whether someone just moves all their books in with them and you can look at them if you want

Attorney at Funk posted:what's in socharis's library, is it just "resurrecting dead girlfriends for dummies" and stuff Library 1 (Resurrections) so basically yes, although that seems kind of silly. i'm probably going to be spending some of my free merit xp on another library, maybe multiple sets if i can. off the top of my head, medicine, anatomy, and alchemy, unless any or all of these are covered by one of the libraries we already have

READ THIS IF YOU CARE ABOUT MAGE PAD Okay, as Self-Designated Mage Pad Treasurer, I have a few questions so I can get Final Official Answers from you guys: 1) Who all is moving a library into Mage Pad or setting a new one up there, how many dots is it, and what subjects is it on? I might need some reminding, this thread goes fast. According to Vox, the mechanics of libraries work differently if you don't actually own it, so I think it'll be okay to have multiple personal Library merits that are contained within a single shared Sanctum. * Crimson has added two dots to the Sanctum's everybody-library, I forget what subjects they are. Keep in mind that if you're adding to the Group Library beyond what Crimson's chipped in, you'll have to pay for the third, fourth, etc. dots, instead of starting at one dot. * Socharis is moving in a personal one-dot library. Was Resurrections sarcastic or is that what it's really on? * Arrian is moving in a personal library but I forget how many dots and what subjects. 2) Who's moving into Mage Pad and who's not? * Paracelsus and Matryoshka have their own places where they'll live. * I think Thor, Crimson, Socharis, Arrian, and Adramel are moving in. 3) We have one dot of Security, who's going to volunteer to put up a standing spell?

arrian's library is in folklore/mythology and occult, crimson's is in curses and destinies, and socharis's is indeed in Resurrections

i got around to reading and holy drat:Attorney at Funk posted:cool story crion. you write good. i post a lot in this thread, drat, i have more posts in this thread than ferrinus does! i guess i like playing mage while i'm at it, a question for Ferrinus: How stringently are you going to apply the different flavorings of the Mage Armors for various Arcana? For instance, Mind Mage Armor, Misperception, works by subtly altering an opponent's perceptions so that they aim for the wrong place, but like all Mind magic it would only affect something with a distinct mind. Technically speaking, Matryoshka's Mage Armor should have had no effect on Chisel's primegolems. Not that I mind not having my character's teeth punched out his rectum, but it was something I was wondering about. Also why the gently caress does this thread keep getting unbookmarked whenever I post in it? Nicolae Carpathia fucked around with this message at 23:49 on Aug 13, 2009 |

Okay, so does the sanctum need any more XPs? I'd be happy to put some towards it. Also, I originally gave Dasein a couple points in Sanctum but I didn't really think it through nor did I ever outline it so I wonder if Ferrinus would let me dissolve that XP and put it towards the magebro sanctum? I will happily move my Library into the sanctum for everyone to use, I have Philosophy (probably useless but there for flavor puposes) and Spirits. Dasein will probably continue living in some poo poo hole apartment because he was there at the beginning and the end so he feels somewhat comfortable partaking of the magical space he doesn't have quite the bond the rest of them do.
