If I make a room safe with the above spell, is there a time limit on that, or is it permanent? If I cast "target room becomes farm" or some equivalent spell, is that permanent or temporary? It's important for how much modification I need to do.
First is temporary, second permanent. Anything that results physical transformation is permanent, unless spell states otherwise.
((Wait, did I miss an opportunity to join?))
Yep. Waitlist is more like a priority list. When there's a slot open I'll say so and those higher in the list have priority over others, assuming they announce their readyness before next turn. That's because I like to have active players.
Jeremiah casts his spell clearly saying his own name. Bone plates grow on his back in pattern that allows the plates slide over others. The bat wings on his back suddenly double their size and he has barely enough time to orient himself horizontally so the wings have room to grow. Now his wings are twice as tall as he is, even when they are properly folded to take minimum space, not to mention the size comes with considerable weight despite of the hollow bones. Amount of additional skin, bones, muscles, and blood is easily around 20 kilograms. Jeremiah finds himself in short of breath and his pulse skyrockets. His heart and lungs are having hard time to supply enough oxygenated blood everywhere. There's no way for him to go into the central hallway anymore, so he's pretty much locked into the treasure room.
Shannon finally took up to wander in newly opened rooms to recharge his spells. Only room he doesn't visit yet is the one Walter opens.
Little Finger returns to the treasure room where Jeremiah wheezes under weight of his wings and checks the jewelry displayed there. He finds
bracelets, pearl necklaces, brooches, and
many exquiste rings. More wealth than he has ever seen before in his life! However no matter how much he tries, he cannot sense any magic anywhere. Perhaps it is because he's a fledling wizard and can barely sense his own spells in action.
In mess hall Rosie walks to inspect the boxes and barrels, leaving her foot prints in sand. One barrel that's lifted on the counter has a tap in it. She finds a mug from shelves and releases a small amount of liquid into it. *sniff sniff* Hmm, this definitely beer. Slightly different smell from usual beers she has come across, but the smell cannot be mistaken for anything else. Boxes are mostly nailed shut, but in the open ones she finds rye bread, fruits, salted meat, and fishes in cold salt water. Shelves contain wooden bowls and spoons and some metal knives. "Now only if there was a kitchen" she prays and opens the other door.
However there are no kitchen behind that door, only a stone walled room of apparently arcane nature. Green flames of braziers in every corner light the room. There are unknown runic writing on walls written with white chalk and same chalk is used to draw a large magic circle in middle of the floor. In between the door and the circle is a podium and an open large tome. There's a some sort of demonic creature featurer on one page and on other page is a magic circle similar to the one drawn on floor.
While crafting their new spells Rosie and Octavian both run into a same problem; overcoming magic forces dominating the space here requires extremely large amounts of power. It seems the Infinity Mansion is heavily protected against tampering. It is not impossible, but at their current power level it will take long time to get their spells ready. One must become stronger if one wishes to master the Infinity Mansion.
Rather than being discouraged by this, Octavian lifts off doors together with Walter to ensure nobody closes them ever again. Audience hall door is first to go quickly followed by mess hall door. Morgue cannot be really considered safe with those angry golems, so that one is left alone. The classroom seems safe enough despite of the weird pattern the plants are growing. Likewise courtroom and treasure room doors are removed. The room with arcane runes and magic circles is left alone. That smells like potential trouble. If something bad comes through it would be nice to be able to disconnect it. Octavian returns to the main hallway and casts the translation spell on himself. It's not permanent spell, but at least he can communicate with people.
Finally Walter goes to open the morgue door. Behind it is another stone walled cool room. Heavy duty shelves on walls and middle hold various boxes, barrels, and bottles. Seems like a larder. It wouldn't be a bad idea to take off this door too. Only shady thing about the room is its ceiling. Despite of being clearly wooden it's very translucent, exposing infinite darkness beyond.
