Mind if I ask why a rosary?
Because it's as close as I'm gonna get to a magical knuckleduster. And the idea of casting spells with a rosary just seems really cool for some reason. Might be my current sleep dep level though.
Sleep-dep probably explains the formatting. I've been there; it'll get worse if you don't sleep. You are getting very sleepy....sleepy....now go into your bed, close your eyes, and wait it's morning where you are.
On a serious note: I'm having trouble seeing a rosary used as knuckledusters. You'd probably be better off sharpening your wand.
I can. Word to the wise, don't insult someone's religion while they're using prayer beads. They hurt like a bitch.
Given my tendency to do stuff pretty close to that whenever religion comes up, thanks for the advice.

((...A human... covered with magic? AND WHY AM I IN A CAGE!?))
((*drops Selina in with him and throws the cage into a house full of fangirls and enshrouded in an antimagic field*))
More walkies!
((*lifts the cage out of the house and drops it on Elf*
Being a dragon isn't magical!
And seriously, do we need an OOC IC thread?))

Alistair examines the portal.
A ball of paper hits him in the face.

I was going to mention this a few posts ago, on the Connections skill: If you have an unused Connections skill, you may use it on a new contact to get a significant relations boost. This should work on all but the most powerful people. It will work on a teacher, the leader of the magic police squad chasing you, the judge of your murder case, etc.
...What?
The Connections skill is a single-use "this person is my friend/family and always has been" card, but can only be used for the first two interactions with any one person.
Ah. I think I understand.

Oh and do we NEED a wand? Or can we use some other foci, different only for flavours sake? Cos I really like the idea of using a rosary.
...Isn't the Catholic church against magic and sorcery and stuff?
It's a focus. Not a belief system.

Like what? A guinea pig? A formula?

Elena hears Sliver coming in as she's saying that, then turning around and hurrying out.

Six classes is possible, but a difficult schedule, and you probably won't have much time to learn extra spells or practice those taught in class.
Even with one of them being history?

Fine, drop Conjuration, then.

I'm not writing up a complete list of every shop in the mall. Spawn shops by looking for one. ("I look for a pet store. I need a magical snake.")
Extra books will give you a bonus to studying or trying to learn spells not taught in class. Getting the books from the library will require a roll. A wand will give you a bonus to certain spells. You could buy an expanded set of potion ingredients, better tools for certain classes, a pet, or any number of mysterious objects you might expect to find in a magical mall.
Alright. Hm.
"C'mon, Dad, let's go get a wand!"
Look for a wand store. Wands are important, right?

((...Dammit, NOW you start the plot? I just had the portal opened in the other game, too.))

"Good job, Meme!"

((@GWG: I'm just saying that I'm fairly certain you need a human mind for it to work properly. But who knows, I might be wrong. Piecewise is the only one who knows how his space magic works. Try that if you survive or have your other corpse revived. We'll get some new data, whether it works or not.

And I just realized Grate has all the powers and abilities of the AM now (can sense everything around him with incredible detail and can alter it), but none of the control. Wonder if the AM somehow got exposed to the thing manipulator batteries contain and got incredibly lucky. Or maybe she worked on developing amps and manipulators. Or was an early test subject. Hmmm...))
((Maybe you should ask her. After this, of course.
And maybe the AM will be able to help control Grate's power?))

2. Exit through the front door.
3. As above, but while carrying any body part of one of the employees or customers.

[20] The formulae is split into a dozen parts.
You inject the first part into one guinea pig. No obvious changes. You try a double-dose on another. This one sprouts feathers, before its right rear leg withers away before its left leg melds with the tail into a weird sort of barbed tail and its feathers and fur turn red. Finally, its body grows weird, warty lumps. The little guy is screeching in fear--and pain? You don't know.

Little shapes flicker in the air around the guinea pig. Once the changes finish, one stabilizes. It is perhaps the size of a window, and looking into a house.
