Dr. Gerhardt: Head to Room 323

My ideas on booning:

My thoughts on your ideas:

1) Upgrade Eldrick life boon, he is a head of farmers and healer
2) Grant 5 arrived farmers with minor life boon to speed up agriculture and their conversion.

No arguments here.

3) Grant chaos boon to the alchemist, to make him more adapted to his job. He should intuitively sense what results should he get from a mixture

...Chaos and flammable, explosive substances don't mix well.

4) Upgrade azula's fire boon to 3rd level. Give her level one chaos and life boons She should get ready for possible participating in the tournament
5) Grant Ustan Life\Fire boon  and make him firejackets and firedrakes commander and caretaker
6) We should create normal, human militia, with spidersilk armor and regular weapons. Should choose original villagers for that. 10 able adult men should form our own professional army. Guardians of the Temple. No boons for them, yet
7) Send a priest as a missionary with the next caravan. Edit: Give him minor healing boon, healers are popular

Should be fine. If we have the mana.

Grant every mage a minor fire boon. Maybe too expensive

Probably too expensive, especially as we have no idea what they can already do.

9) Next caravan should include some of the newly created army and fire mages

Sure.

That's a lot of mana daily, but our income is nice and  I see nothing wrong in spending up to 1\3 of daily income on boons.

Ideally, we'd wait until we have enough mana to deal with, say, Maher's attacks without withdrawing the boons.

"Tenth Circle Jones, don't you see my point?"
"Ninth Circle MacLod, I see. You say things are going slowly."
"Precisely!"
"Which means that we will not be found, hated, and destroyed so easily."
"But--"
"There are billions of them, MacLod. They could easily send a soldier for each of our members. Your psionics and mine can easily hold off a dozen or more soldiers, but what about the members of the first few Circles? We have no chance if we provoke them. And provoke we will...but not until we can survive long enough to actually make a change."

Actions PM'd

Give the priest a boon of Chaos. He was adamant about not changing his worship to us, allow him to sow "change" throughout the land in our name. Automatically raise his boon to the level of the others, he shall be able to blight the land with chaos, make brother turn on brother, and grant small random boons of his own (though they can never be as good as even a level 1 boon of ours)

I'm not sure. At most, give him some minor transmutive abilities. Or, you know, Life.

Also, on the subject of plant soldiers, some should be sent along with the next caravan of firenector.

+1. However, don't send too many, so people don't become too alarmed. Also, have Azula accompany, leave Eldrick behind. Azula should try and convert more when there.
Maybe grant Ustan a Life boon, so he can control the flamejackets, because that's kind of his thing now.

Sounds acceptable, but what would Eldrick be doing? Helping the crops?

Dr. Gerhardt: Check people in the room for any ailments, then return to my office until I get a page or something. I'm not a nurse.

I have no idea what you're talking about.
This should be !!fun!!.

did you see what happened to Alderaan? it just poped!

That was at full power. The Death Star could be used at lesser strengths to simply break large objects open.

And where do you get the proof for this?

Well, there's the fact that it was used to destroy ships. Those weren't full-power blasts it was shooting! Hell, in comparison to the planet-busting power that was miniscule.

True, but weren't the ships...slightly completely obliterated?
