Archer (constellation)

2019-03-08T20:30:53Z

SIDMON:

Slightly askew in the southern skies, [[Lirisa]] the Archer consists of four faintly glimmering stars and several tinier ones. A dim corona of light sits off center of the constellation, looking much like a braid of hair tied back in anticipation of a serious hunt.

==Uses==

===Unlocking===
{{com|raise}}: To increase the totem fragment count, RAISE it while holding a {{ilink|i|glowing iron fragment}} in your other hand. The fragment will be returned to the sky. This increases your totem's "fragment count" by 1. 
 
The totem will evolve after returning 4, 10, 18, 28, and 40 fragments. Each time the totem evolves, it will become more elaborate, and a new bonus will be unlocked. At between 45-55 fragments, the totem will "''throb and pulse in your hand with latent power yearning to be spent''." Additional fragments are needed when one wants to use the bonus RPA ability of the totem.

'''NOTE: Totems do not work for Forsaken [[Necromancer]]s, even if it was acquired and unlocked prior to becoming Forsaken.'''

===Bonuses===
These verbs can be used, as soon as they are unlocked by sending the corresponding amount of glowing iron fragment to the sky. Invoking one of your totem's bonuses will consume some of the totem's charges. See Recharging below.

|- align="center"
|}

===Recharging===
Charges (used to invoke a bonus) can only be restored by cleaning a dirty totem. Only dirty totems can be cleaned, and the totem will become dirty after 1 week in real time. The result is that the totem can be recharged at the rate of 10 charges per week.
 
 
In order to clean your totem, you must have an offering that matches what you would use for your god under the alternate favor system. See [[Immortals]] for a partial list of acceptable offerings. With your totem in your right hand and your offering in your left hand, {{tt|CLEAN MY TOTEM}}. This will consume your offering and give you a message indicating that your totem is now clean.
 
 
''As you wave your snail shell over the totem, the shell dissolves into tiny particles that drift downward slowly, covering the totem. After a few moments they vanish, absorbed into the totem and leaving it looking much brighter and cleaner than before.''
 
 
You may clean your totem anywhere. You do not have to be at an altar of your immortal to do it.
 
Using fragments on a capped totem will not recharge it. Doing so merely results in a chance of receiving the RPA bonus described above.

Look: ''The lion's eyes are a pair of faceted forest-green emeralds, shining brightly with hidden wisdom. A set of razorlike quartz teeth protrude from its jaw, seemingly ready to bite off any offending fingers that wander too close.

===40 fragments===
'''Evolution:''' A golden glow surrounds the lion totem, growing in brightness until the totem is merely a sihouette. Through the glare you notice the lion stretch langorously before freezing into a lifeless totem once more.

Tap: ''a gracefully carved flamewood lion totem'' 
Look: ''The lion's eyes are a pair of faceted forest-green emeralds, shining brightly with hidden wisdom. A set of razorlike quartz teeth protrude from its jaw, seemingly ready to bite off any offending fingers that wander too close. The tail is covered with sharp crystal chips in a zig-zag pattern that seems to shift subtly with every movement. The lion appears to be in the middle of a particularly good stretch.

===RPA bonus===
Evolution: ''You feel the lion totem throb and pulse in your hand with latent power yearning to be spent.''

Tap: ''a gracefully carved flamewood lion totem'' 
Look: ''You notice a soft glowing aura about the lion totem.'' 
Raise: Your vision goes white and a noiseless roar drowns out the ambient noise, leaving you in complete silence. After what seems like an eternity, your hearing returns and the light recedes amidst purple spots. Suddenly the world around you sharpens and your mind awakens with heightened clarity!

Divination charts

2016-12-22T04:38:40Z

SIDMON: /* Special messages */

{{RTOC}}
== Recall ==
A collection of star maps, charts, calculations and algorithms, together they are used by Moon Mages to divine the future. Most often used by those of the Celestial Compact, the charts take an unusually logical and direct approach to fortunetelling. By studying the current positions of heavenly bodies and plotting out their course, mages are able to determine how the movements of the stars will affect the immediate future. 

The content of the charts, combined with astrological observations, are used by a prophet to calculate the imminent future. In broad terms, the prophet seeks deviations from the expected lay of the stars caused by resonance with the Plane of Probability. Once found, these perturbations are ultimately placed into context by relative positions of the planets. 

Many prominent members of the Celestial Compact claim that the rigid, mathematical nature of celestial charts make them uniquely suited for foretelling the arcane arts. As might be expected, this claim is hotly disputed by the other sects though the empirical evidence seems to be on the Compact's side. 

== Properties ==
*Sect Affinity: [[Celestial Compact]].
*Domain: [[Magic Skillset|Magic]]. Charts grant a slight bonus to potency and duration when predicting on the Magic skillset.
*Prediction Affinity: Duration. Divination charts have a slightly higher base physical quality for duration than other tools.
''Note: Divination charts are very easy to decipher for all aspects of prediction, and so are recommended for anyone who only wants to dabble in prediction or doesn't want to bother with the more complicated messaging of other tools.

== Availability ==
The following table includes all known reliable (or semi-reliable, in the case of auctions) sources of charts, with some example wares. Any other wares from the same source will be of the same quality as the example(s). The quality listed in the table is overall craftsmanship, so take care to shop around. In particular, [[The Future is Now]] is known for offering charts that are strong on one quality and weaker on others.

== Use ==
'''Note''':''See [[Prediction]] for complete details on the general process of prediction. Only details specific to divination charts will be covered here.''

===Prerequisites===
* A set of charts that have been {{com|INVOKE}}ed to bond them to you.

===Syntax===
*{{com|review}} {{tt|charts}} to perform a prediction on yourself.
*{{com|review}} {{tt|charts with <target>}} to perform a prediction on another player.

==Qualities==

{{com|ANALYZE}} charts to see their qualities. 
''See [[Prediction]] for detailed general information about divination tool qualities, how they relate to each other, and how they increase or decrease.

===Physical qualities===
Physical quality is indicated by the condition of each chart. Potency damage is determined by the condition of the "Zodiac Map," duration damage by the "Table of Astronomical Algorithms," alignment damage by the "Anomalous Discourse," and polarity damage by the "Diagram of Configurations." All four charts use the same messaging for their condition:
*The "''<chart>''" is a very good example of its kind.
*The "''<chart>''" is a good example of its kind.
*The "''<chart>''" is a mundane example of its kind.
*The "''<chart>''" is an unspectacular example of its kind.
*The "''<chart>''" is marred by several minor creases.
*The "''<chart>''" is dog-eared.
*The "''<chart>''" is folded and tattered.
*The "''<chart>''" is starting to tear along the folds.

===Bond qualities===
Bond quality is indicated by the how experienced you are with the chart. Potency bond is determined by your experience with the "Zodiac Map," the duration bond by the "Table of Astronomical Algorithms," the alignment bond by the "Anomalous Discourse," and the polarity bond by the "Diagram of Configurations." All four use the same messaging for your experience with them:
{| class=wikitable
! width=80% | '''Anomaly''' || width=20% align=center | Level
|-
| You are completely inexperienced with the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 0
|-
| You are quite inexperienced with the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 1-3
|-
| You are inexperienced with the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 4-7
|-
| You are somewhat experienced with the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 8-11
|-
| You are experienced with the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 12-15
|-
| You are very experienced with the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 16-19
|-
| You have a budding mastery of the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 20-23
|-
| You have partial mastery of the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 24-27
|-
| You have near total mastery of the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 28-29
|-
| You have complete mastery of the "''<chart>''" || align=center | 30
|-
|}

===Age and construction qualities===
These are identical for all types of tools. See [[Prediction#Quality|Prediction]] for a list of both.

===Example===
:''The "Zodiac Map" is dog-eared.
:''The "Anomalous Discourse" is dog-eared.
:''The "Diagram of Configurations" is dog-eared.
:''The "Table of Astrological Algorithms" is marred by several minor creases.
:''The charts are at least a couple of years old.
:''They appear to have seen some use.
:''The overall craftsmanship is below average and the charts should prove slightly susceptible to damage.

:''Recognizing the investiture as your own, you cautiously probe the charts with your prophetic talent.

:''You are quite inexperienced with the "Zodiac Map."
:''You are completely inexperienced with the "Anomalous Discourse."
:''You are quite inexperienced with the "Diagram of Configurations."
:''You are quite inexperienced with the "Table of Astrological Algorithms."
These charts have been used a small amount and are not in great condition, nor were they likely well-made to begin with. Each of the charts is rather below average in quality, which means they are not as likely to grow your experience with them any further. Your experience with them is almost nothing, meaning the charts will not perform as well at predicting.

==Prediction interpretation==
===Potency===
Potency is indicated by the severity of the anomaly when comparing the "Zodiac Map" with a constellation. The more severe the anomaly the greater the potency. The constellations appear to be random. 
'''Disclaimer:''' The power cap is known to be 20% of the ranks of the predicted skill. However, beyond that all ranges listed are ''estimates only''. 
:''Comparing the "Zodiac Map" with your own recent observations you note a '''<anomaly>''' within the <constellation>.''
:''Comparing the "Zodiac Map" with your own recent observations you note a '''convergence''' of the <constellation>, the <constellation>, and the <constellation>.
{| width=330px class=wikitable align=center
! width=80% | '''Anomaly''' || width=20% | %
|-
| trivial anomaly || 1-???
|-
| minor anomaly || ???-???
|-
| modest anomaly || ???-???
|-
| major anomaly || ???-???
|-
| convergence || ???-???
|}

===Duration===
Unlike most tools, divination charts give an exact duration in roisaen/minutes when viewing the "Table of Astrological Algorithms."
:''With the aid of the "Table of Astrological Algorithms" you conclude this event will hold sway for '''<time> '''.''

===Skill===
The "Anomalous Discourse" chart will in most cases quite clearly list the skill affected.
:''Consulting the "Anomalous Discourse" you discover that this occurrence holds sway over your '''<skill phrase>'''.''

===Polarity===
Polarity is determined by the planet that is the dominant influence when referencing the "Diagram of Configurations." Planets closer to the sun indicate a bonus and the planets further from the sun provide a curse. The only exception is Dawgolesh, the 12th planet, which provides a bonus. This is the only aspect of divination charts the requires a bit of extra deciphering, and can easily be circumvented by using {{com|exp}} {{tt|mods}} to determine polarity.
:''Referencing the "Diagram of Configurations" you determine that '''<planet>''' is the dominant influence.''
*Bonus: Durgaulda, Dawgolesh, Estrilda, Penhetia, Verena, Yoakena
*Curse: Ismenia, Merewalda, Morleena, Szeldia, Er'qutra, Amlothi

===Special messages===
Special messages usually indicate either damage to a physical quality or an increase to a bond quality, although it can also indicate a polarity inversion or a prediction averaging.
*The threads of prophecy respond sluggishly to your efforts, as if already strained.
::''You already have a prediction on that skill. Your two predictions are now averaged.''
*You feel this prediction has enhanced your understanding of the "''<chart>''".
::''The bond strength of the chart has increased.''
*Unfortunately you notice some new wear on the "''<chart>''".
::''Damage to the given chart.''
*???
::''Critical success. All bond qualities have a chance to increase slightly, and guaranteed to be a potent bonus.
*???
::''Critical fumble. All physical and bond qualities have a chance to decrease slightly, and guaranteed to be a nasty curse. Capped bond values are immune.''
*You hesitate a moment, mentally correcting a calculation before referencing the "Diagram of Configurations."
::''Polarity inversion prevented due to prediction pool.''
*Referencing the "Diagram of Configurations" you notice a past correction on the chart which you almost forgot to account for. Given this, you determine that <planet> is the dominant influence.
::''Polarity inversion prevented due to polarity bond.''

===Example===
:''Comparing the "Zodiac Map" with your own recent observations you note a modest anomaly within the constellation of the Cow.
:''Consulting the "Anomalous Discourse" you discover that this occurrence holds sway over your skill with small blades.
:''You hesitate a moment, mentally correcting a calculation before referencing the "Diagram of Configurations" you determine that Estrilda is the dominant influence.
:''With the aid of the "Table of Astrological Algorithms" you conclude this event will hold sway for twenty-one roisaen.
:''Unfortunately you notice some new wear on the "Zodiac Map".

This is a moderately weak positive prediction on the Small Edge skill that will last for twenty-one roisaen. The "Zodiac Map" was damaged as a result of this prediction. There was a polarity inversion from a bonus to a curse that was prevented by the observations in your prediction pool.

==Verbs==
*Everyone: {{com|BEAM}}, {{com|BLINK}}, {{com|BREAK}} (destroys the charts), {{com|EAT}}, {{com|GASP}}, {{com|PAT}}, {{com|ROLL}}, {{com|SCREAM}}, {{com|SHAKE}}, {{com|TRACE}}, {{com|TURN}}, {{com|UNROLL}}, and {{com|WAVE}}.
*[[Celestial Compact|Celestians]]: {{com|ARRANGE}}, {{com|CLENCH}}, {{com|HUG}}, {{com|HUM}}, {{com|READ}}, and {{com|STARE}}.
*Note: While {{com|ROLL}}ed up most verbs act differently, and the charts cannot be used to predict.

==Creation==
Creation of divination charts is not yet possible. Presumably it will use the [[Enchanting]] skill.

{{com|raise}}: To increase the totem fragment count, RAISE it while holding a {{ilink|i|glowing iron fragment}} in your other hand. The fragment will be returned to the sky. This increases your totem's "fragment count" by 1. 
 
The totem will evolve after returning 4, 10, 18, 28, and 40 fragments. Each time the totem evolves, it will become more elaborate, and a new bonus will be unlocked. At between 45-55 fragments, the totem will "''throb and pulse in your hand with latent power yearning to be spent''." Additional fragments are needed when one wants to use the bonus RPA ability of the totem.

'''NOTE: Totems do not work for Forsaken [[Necromancer]]s, even if it was acquired and unlocked prior to becoming Forsaken.'''

===Bonuses===
These verbs can be used, as soon as they are unlocked by sending the corresponding amount of glowing iron fragment to the sky. Invoking one of your totem's bonuses will consume some of the totem's charges. See Recharging below.

===Recharging===
Charges (used to invoke a bonus) can only be restored by cleaning a dirty totem. Only dirty totems can be cleaned, and the totem will become dirty after 1 week in real time. The result is that the totem can be recharged at the rate of 10 charges per week.
 
 
In order to clean your totem, you must have an offering that matches what you would use for your god under the alternate favor system. See [[Immortals]] for a partial list of acceptable offerings. With your totem in your right hand and your offering in your left hand, {{tt|CLEAN MY TOTEM}}. This will consume your offering and give you a message indicating that your totem is now clean.
 
 
''As you wave your snail shell over the totem, the shell dissolves into tiny particles that drift downward slowly, covering the totem. After a few moments they vanish, absorbed into the totem and leaving it looking much brighter and cleaner than before.''
 
 
You may clean your totem anywhere. You do not have to be at an altar of your immortal to do it.
 
Using fragments on a capped totem will not recharge it. Doing so merely results in a chance of receiving the RPA bonus described above.

The '''Whirlwind [[page type is::ability]]''' is a [[guild association is::Barbarian]] only combat [[page type is::ability]] which allows strikes on multiple targets within the weapon's range. With sufficient skill, Whirlwind has the ability to utilize [[Dual Wield|dual wield]]ing, making one attack with each weapon on everything within range.

It should be noted that there is a large defensive penalty associated with Whirlwind, making this maneuver dangerous to use at level. Many Barbarians feel that this move is intended to be a finishing move primarily, however when combined with our immobilizing Roar [[Banshee's Wail]], or the stunning Roar [[Lash of Torment]], it can be a deadly mid-sequence attack.

Recently, the defensive penalty was reduced, and many elder Barbarians claim that it is now a viable hunting tool.

There is also another use for Whirlwind, to remove oneself or others from webbing, whether it is a [[Ranger]]'s web or a [[Moon Mage]]'s [[Shadow Web]].

Lastly, and perhaps of most use, Whirlwind will attempt an attack on anything within range, including unseen opponents. If timed right, it can be an effective deterrent against foes with superior {{skill|Hiding}} or invisibility.

Thee Mottl'd Tyxte (book)

SIDMON:

==Thee Mottl'd Tyxte:==
''A Controversial Discussion of the Infamous Grimoire''

As Written by Heritage Keeper [[Phildonius]]

===Foreword:===

Many people have had books written about their lives
and experiences, but it is rare for a book to be of
such notoriety that volumes are written about it.
Thee Mottl'd Tyxte is one such book, its ancient
secrets a mystery to mages for millennia. While
others have been the subjects of research journals,
none have been the center of such a heated
controversy as to its origins, its intents, and its
very nature. Never has there been a book that has
simultaneously offered vast historical and enchanting
insights while also the target of destruction
requests and attempts. Hence, my labeling of this
discussion as undeniably controversial.

===Chapter One: Origins.===

In the three hundred and ninth year after the Victory
of the Redeemer, a young Moon Mage by the name of
[[Mortom]] Saist happened upon a derelict library and
discovered a tome of legendary reputation. Eagerly,
and certainly rashly, he began to read the sanity-
blasting horrors held between its covers.

Of his caravan and expedition, he was the only
survivor.

In the many years since, Saist has moved on, becoming
officially recognized as a great speaker and
Guildleader. He has done some remarkable things,
including sealing himself inside a magical
sarcophagus, presumably dead to the rest of the
world, and then reawakening as the [[Mirror Wraith Prophecy]] reached its conclusion. Yet, he rarely
speaks of the incident at the forgotten library or of
the manual known as Thee Mottl'd Tyxte.

From the small things that Guildleader Saist has
chosen to share, we know that the structure was one
of unusual design, bearing a remarkable similarity to
some of the discoveries within the [[Su Helmas]]
excavation. Since the location of this place has
long been lost, and Saist has shown no desire to
assist in locating it again, we can only guess from
the second-hand descriptions and comparisons that
this library was originally constructed by G'nar
Pethians. Few scholars believe that the book was
originally written by Sect members, and even the
Pethians themselves have refused to take
responsibility for the act -- of course, as ancient
as Thee Mottl'd Tyxte is, pre-Empire Pethians could
indeed be the authors without the modern members even
knowing it. The grimoire itself references the G'nar
Pethian Book of Prophecies, which makes for an
interesting coincidence on this speculation.

Scattered texts reference the work on occasion, with
the most shocking being a seemingly innocent antique
inventory of a Saesordian's gear. The description of
one of the tomes this early Tezirite carried is a
frighteningly accurate match to the features of Thee
Mottl'd Tyxte. A few hints in [[The Arte of the Black Cockatrice]] also seem to indicate that the [[Saesordian Cabal]] had it in their possession at some point, and
many believe it to be the source of [[Heronyus Kalestraum]]'s horrific Bonegrinder spell. Strangely,
[[Alicia|Alycia]] [[Crowther]], who some argue would surely have
known something about Kalestraum's possession of the
book, never mentioned it. The Tezirites are quick to
point out that the Saesordian Cabal split into
Kalestraum's Children and the Progeny due to the
crazed leader's blasphemous practices, and thus the
tome is likely to have escaped notice by the young
Lady Crowther -- especially so if she ignored its
existence on purpose to gain respect for her
fledgling group.

A handful of scholars have surmised that Thee Mottl'd
Tyxte was not only in the possession of the revived
Saesordian Cabal as led by Kalestraum, but in the
original group as begun by the infamous sorceress
[[Tezirah]] Eilsina. Most members of the Progeny call
this a ludicrous claim, and they may be correct.

===Chapter Two: The Grimoire's Format===

The first thing one notices when perusing the pages
of Thee Mottl'd Tyxte is the unusual language used
across the majority of its contents. Numerous words
are apparently Old [[Gamgweth]], but linguists will
quickly notice that a wide variety of dialects are
cobbled together in seemingly random placement.
Elements of bastardized [[Gerenshuge]], Elven and even
Ancient Imperial are evident in many of the passages,
oft times within the same sentence.

How the mages in Pre-Empire times understood such a
cryptic warping of the written word is not exactly
known. Some scholars claim it is likely that the
sharing of forbidden knowledge was done in this
format to dodge persecution. The obviously somber,
morbid, macabre and dare we say, illegal practices
within the tome tend to contradict this belief,
unless one subscribes to the idea that Pre-Empire
mages were woefully lacking in the skill needed to
hide their intents. Most scholars believe this was
actually a commonly used tongue, perhaps created by
the mages themselves as a working language, but
freely understood by any with magical training.

The Sage [[Scyndoryn]] has made the unusual claim that
the Pre-Empire mages used a deciphering spell, and
that the vile rituals and blasphemous rites are
little more than a trap for the unwary to disguise
what the grimoire truly holds. He further states
that if such a spell were found, the contents of Thee
Mottl'd Tyxte would be shockingly different in design
and intent. Few agree with this train of thought,
and with good reason, as the Sage has put forth no
real proof to back up his wild speculations.

Unfortunately, any proof at all to back up
speculation on Thee Mottl'd Tyxte is hard to come by.
Very few artifacts have survived from the days of the
Empire, and virtually none exist from the time when
the grimoire was thought to have been written. A
single basalt tablet was uncovered in an excavation
in northern Therengia, and appears to be a non-
magical block detailing an aristocrat's family tree.
It is written in a similar language as the infamous
tome, though no one can really guess as to why this
is.

It is the author's belief that Thee Mottl'd Tyxte was
not written at once, or by the same group of people,
but instead used as a working manual and magical
sketchbook by many groups of varying cultures over
the course of centuries. This does account for the
incongruities within the work. However, this
hypothesis is lacking in proof. Surely some of the
cultures that had contact with this tome would have
made reference to such a unique work, but alas, there
are none to be found but in the rarest of
circumstances. This tends to go against the "popular
usage" theory, as I have called it.

The answers may be found in the paradoxical words of
the tome itself. On page seventy-three, the
following, submitted for grammatical discussion.
Note the combination of Old Gamgweth and Ancient
Imperial within the same sentence structures.

'''Page 73, Passage II:'''
<pre>
An anhtler, jaw of man, leg of unman,
Seven Elven hond unbroken.
Roond flames breathe;
Thee bohne yet braek, en thay whych be not nomenclated,
Be rede with magick en sweete
En upon thee morn, fynish thee grym faest,
Yet fore Xibar's eyes ryze.
</pre>
We cannot be sure of the translation of this passage,
nor does this portion hint at its purpose. The first
two lines could be a list of material components, and
if so, this would clearly be a Necromantic ritual.
Alternately, this could be the instructions for the
procedure of the incantation. "Jaw of man" could
refer to the main speaker, and requires that he
either be male or Human, or perhaps both. The next
item in the listing, "leg of unman" is possibly a
reference to either a female, or non-Human race,
while the "seven Elven [hands]" could be implying a
joined circle of seven people. Or, as noted earlier,
it could grotesquely require the use of seven Elven
hands, severed.

Disturbingly, the line "[And] upon thee morn,
[finish] thee grym [feast]" lends credence to those
who suspect this is indeed a Necromancy. As this is
an abomination of magic, it is the author's
suggestion that this passage be destroyed rather than
further research carried on to its purpose.

===Chapter Three: The Controversy Thickens.===

Perhaps the most peculiar references within the vast
tome are the ones that speak of [[Grazhir]], the fourth
moon eons since shattered. What makes Thee Mottl'd
Tyxte's comments on the moon notable is the recurring
usage of its existence in the present tense -- as if
Grazhir was still intact during the grimoire's
writing! This is seen by many as preposterous, and
is generally accounted for by chalking it up to
errors in the admittedly difficult translation
process. Others have an unshakeable belief in this,
and so the lines have been drawn on one of the more
contested issues within the book.

Of the most controversial sections in the Thee
Mottl'd Tyxte are the so-called "New Katamba" pages.
These passages consistently refer to Katamba as
recently tarnished, or recently blackened. A handful
of very vocal sages insist this is proof that the
book was begun before the destruction of Grazhir.
For your perusal, here is such a reference, taken
from the Devourer enchantment creation:

'''Page 83, Passage XI:'''
<pre>
Childe of daerk, theos pearly eoge is borne of flat liquyd snayls,
Wyth Katamba's newe tarnish, taech in straemes.
En wyth Nightshayde magick, fyll en be of hungered lyfe.
</pre>
Notice the usage of the term "eoge" for "eye." In
other passages upon this same page, the far less
archaic term "eye" is used. The "flat liquyd snayls"
on the first line is a twisted reference to oysters,
as modern usage of the Devourer enchantment easily
proves. Also of interest is the reference to the
Nightshade spell, which by the following description,
sounds surprisingly like our modern Shadows spell.

'''Page 82, Passages III - VI:'''
<pre>
Nightshadye magick en shadeow eart fro daerk mona,
Chantse, pushe awayt all lighte, en all lighte is pushed awayt,
Shadeow surroond, lurke en eart unbeknown.
</pre>
Even novices can see that the second line, which
refers to the "pushing away of all light," is
identical to what could be said about the Shadows
spell. However, this is actually a minor point
considering the accompanying pictogram on the same
page, in the place of passages IV, V and VI, which
clearly shows a very Shadows-like spell formula.

This has led a number of mages, especially those who
are rather anti-Tezirite in their political views, to
cry foul over the Lady [[Erzebet]] [[Crowther]]'s reputed
perfection of the modern Shadows spell. It is
claimed by these men that the renowned spell-crafter
and Progeny member did not in fact create the spell,
but stole it from Thee Mottl'd Tyxte. Such
allegations have been hotly debated by Tezirites and
Celestians alike. My own opinion is irrelevant in
this matter.

Sadly, when Saist recovered the manual and triggered
a use of its contents, portions of the book were
utterly destroyed. Presumably this was a result of
whatever magic Saist attempted to comprehend, but in
the process the entirety of the spell research
chapters was lost. The damage showed signs of
unusual and possibly premature aging, and the only
page not too fragile was apparently removed with a
sharp knife long years before Saist found the
grimoire. Those against Lady Crowther point to this
as their sole evidence of her treachery; the Progeny
holds fast to the fact that so much of the spells
section was destroyed. In any event, we may never
know the truth about the similarities between the
Shadows and Nightshade spells.

Less controversial than the New Katamba and Shadows-
Nightshade debates is the information about ancient
sigils and enchanting. Most agree that the phrase
"taech in straemes," or the shortened "taech," means
to bind a sigil to an object. This is unusual in the
fact that the word "taech," or at least its
variations in both Old Gamgweth and Ancient Imperial,
means simply "to touch." Could this mean that those
who wrote Thee Mottl'd Tyxte used magic so heavily
and thoroughly that it was thought of as mundane as
any other action? Take for example, the following,
from the creation of Unbending devices:

'''Page 127, Passage V:'''
<pre>
Footswell to Redestone en fro Eycemool in crones thay lay,
Awayt Durgaulda's taech in straemes, taech, en wyth thee two,
Aet for all mona magick, en all mona magick fell awayt.
</pre>
Here, we have a classic literary device used in Thee
Mottl'd Tyxte. The first line outlines material
components or amounts required for the processes.
Next, we have a line or group of lines detailing the
creation steps. In this case, the Durgaulda
reference is misleading since it implies that such a
sigil would be scribed twice, or that it does more
than just lay the foundation for a working
Conjunctive sigil. The final line or lines indicate
what the expected result would be. In this
particular example, the material component line is
cryptic until one assumes that "crones" refers to
precious metal, or some form of currency.

Again, the usage of commonly found items further
enhances the idea that the authors of the text
considered magic and non-magic to be interchangeable
entities. Curiously, mages can't explain why a
single platinum works as well as an equal value of
copper, though alchemists believe it has to do with
the "natural and invisible properties of the ores."

This installment of our ongoing series details the life and times
of Borrugar Steadfoot, the Merchant Magician. It is hoped that
the story of his triumphs and untimely death serve as a guide and
warning to young mages, as they face their own challenges in
apprenticeship.

Bourrugar Steadfoot, while not as well known as some of his
contemporaries in the turbulant decades just after the fall of
the Empire, was nonetheless a luminary of the magical world.
Known as "the merchant magician", Steadfoot was an unusually
shrewd and calculating olvi, concealing his brilliant strategic
mind behind a cheerful and sometimes frivolous demeanor: more
than one trader-baron found himself utterly cleaned out in a deal
with him, after being tricked into underestimating the bubbly
halfling.

The fifth child out of twelve, Borrugar's large extended family
traveled with a gypsy tribe through the wilderness of the western
provinces. Their nomadic life served them well in the rampant
chaos and danger of the post-Imperial period, and they rarely
stayed in a single place long enough to do more than fill their
wagons, water their steeds and move on. However, the gypsy life
did not sit well with the young man, and he often felt ignored
and lonely on the caravan route.

Befriended by the gypsies' soothsayer, a mystic who had herself
been raised by the tricksters of the [[Fortune's Path]] sect,
Borrugar discovered a way to both keep his complex mind occupied
and to finally gain the attention he craved: magic. He was a
quick and eager study, soon able not only to work the simple
cantrips he was shown, but to combine these elements into new,
more dazzling spells. Unfortunately, before he could truly begin
to exercise his newfound abilities, disaster struck.

While travelling through a forested glade some distance from
[[Zoluren]]'s North Trail Road, the caravan was waylaid by fenrae
reavers. The merciless fae asked for no bribe or ransom, seeking
only bloodthirsty destruction. Small even for an olvi, Borrugar
escaped in the confusion and hid in the thick underbrush, able
only to watch. Years later, he would write in his journal: "The
helplessness, the utter helplessness as the fiends slaughtered my
family, was worse than any pain of sword or arrow. I had
illusions, and trinkets aplenty, but what good would they do me
now? Worthless. Then, when it was all over, to slink off
through the brush with my head bowed low and footsteps soft, as
if I were the guilty party, the interloper, fearing punishment?
I knew then, as I huddled beneath the cold, uncaring stars, that
I would never allow myself to feel this way again."

Escaping alone, he staggered up the road until he finally
collapsed with exhaustion. He was found by an elderly trader on
his regular route, who took the young man in and brought him to
an inn at the next stop. Hearing Borrugar's tale, and
recognizing that he was an exceptionally bright person, the
trader offered him a job to get him on his feet: he would
accompany the trader on his assignments, keeping track of
inventory, doing general clerical work and employing the tricks
his gypsy mentor had taught him on the way, using the positions
of the stars to divine the most favorable routes.

Borrugar accepted, and stayed with the man for nearly a decade,
as their fortunes grew. When the old trader finally passed on,
he left Borrugar the fruits of their labor: a thriving company
based in the city of [[Riverhaven]], grown strong from risky shipping
and exploration projects. Suddenly gifted with not only a small
fortune but an ongoing legacy, he put his money to use in
constructing that which he'd dreamt of since childhood: a stable,
permanant home. Concerned about security to the point of
paranoia, his glorious mansion had one odd twist: nobody knew
where it was. Though he certainly lived in Riverhaven, and the
building -- gigantic, said those who had seen the interior -- was
there as well, those who attempted to find it or even follow
Borrugar home found themselves oddly unable to pinpoint exactly
what they had seen, or where they had seen it. His artifice in
illusion had never been put to such a bold-- or, perhaps,
subtle-- use. It is worth noting that his home presumably still
exists to this very day, but it will not be found on any maps of
the great city.

It was not long before ennui began to set in; while his material
needs were satisfied, and there was something of a challenge in
outwitting his business rivals day after day, the true calling of
his heart had gone unanswered. Realizing what he needed to do,
one spring morning he underwent the lengthy trip to the nearest
Moonmage guildhouse, there to enroll himself as an apprentice at
the age of seventy-three. He was accepted, and barely slept for
the next five years, alternating his business pursuits with
intense magical studies.

Using his knack for seeing and manipulating the core elements of
spells, he was quickly out-performing mages with twice his
experience. Among his early achievements was a refinement of the
magics of Aura Sight, for which he was noted in the official
rolls of the High Council... And netted him a considerable
advantage when trying to negotiate with mundane competitors.
Once he graduated as a magician in his own right, his interests
turned to works of enchantment.

Most of Borrugar's works were unique, permanant enchantments on a
large scale, done for friends and patrons; one classic example
is the Everflowing Fountain in the courtyard of the Zoluren
baronial mansion, where crossed ivory dolphin sculptures pour an
endless river of pure water into a seperately-enchanted basin,
which in turn magically evaporates the water before it overflows.
The fountain is still a popular sight for noble visitors to the
province. It is interesting to note that his most popular
contribution to Moonmage lore, the Ivory Chalice of Borrugar (the
original Satiation version; later versions employing the sigils
of Revelry and Desire were created by his successful apprentices,
the latter as a practical joke), was essentially a smaller
version of this device.

In a vein less dramatic but far more useful to his magical
colleagues, one of Borrugar's greatest creations were the Chimes
of Disruption; despite the foreboding name, the purpose of these
huge, enchanted windchimes was to imbue an item with powerful
sonic energy, disrupting its physical structure enough to easily
introduce enchantments and spells into its core. While they
proved incompatable with many experiments (the sound pitch
sufficient to shatter items of weak material and even injure
their bearers), all of Borrugar's devices involved the Chimes as
part of their creation, and his apprentices followed the same
tack.

The location of Borrugar's original set of chimes is unknown at
this time. It is believed that, prior to his death, they were
passed on to his close friend [[Suniyetsu]] as a housewarming gift.
Suniyetsu, a mistress ranger, used them to keep an infestation of
dangerous cougars from her remote forest sanctuary. As she
vanished from the records of history not long after the gifting,
not much more can be said.

Borrugar, sadly, and like so many before him, fell victim to the
magic he loved so dearly. The key to his undoing was an ongoing
obsession with a grimoire of pre-Imperial sorcery, the infernal
tome known to scholars as the "[[Arte of the Black Cockatrice]]". He
had first come across a fragmented, partial translation of this
elvish text in the library of [[Throne City]], and this was the main
source from which he had been able to reconstruct the power of
auric sight. Tidbits of dark secrets enticed him into yearning
for more, and he hired a team of scholars and researchers to find
a complete edition of the book.

After dead end upon dead end, a copy was indeed found; legend
holds that it was located in the dank catacombs beneath a
Tezirite monestary, clutched in the withered grasp of a high
priest's mummy. While still fragmented and ruined by water and
oils in spots, it was the most complete version of the book known
to be extant upon Elanthia. His own translation abilities honed
by years of practice, Borrugar locked himself away and set to
deciphering the tome's mysteries.

Friends close to him-- a small tribe of Fortune's Path gypsies
who he had invited to share his home, in return for serving as
bodyguards-- later wrote that he had attempted to create
something he had read in the cursed grimoire, an enchantment he
referred to as "[[the Mithricine Key]]". Great apparatus were
constructed, and elaborate, dark rituals prepared to this end.
On the final night, the climax of the enchantment, Borrugar bade
his servants to stay outside his laboratory, and to not venture
in, no matter what they heard. The evening was later recounted
in the journal of an anonymous housemaid [Moonmage Archives,
Throne City Guild, 315:42:12] as:

"Twas not a sound that came from that door or past it, nor
nothing of sight, but [[Roberto]] who is frazzuri among us said that
he read something lively awful in the night sky. He drew the
[[tokka]], looked at what he'd set out, and quickly pulled the cards
back together without showing any what was there. He burnt the
deck later, after we opened the door, like he told us to do right
away.

"Maestro Borrugar was there, just like he said he would be. We
had to pull back right quick, because the smell was like three-
week carrion, and the sight inside wasn't nothing for the
children to see: he was sitting there in his chair, plain as
day, except his limbs weren't fitting together like they were
supposed to, not at all. The downs were in up places, the ups
were in down places, and some things we didn't find till later.
He was all mixed up. Among us there wasn't no question about
what had done it to him, the question was how it had been done
WITHOUT MAKING A SINGLE SOUND..."

Details of Borrugar's burial and afterwards are sketchy: it is
believed that he was put to rest on his private estate, which in
turn was given over to the gypsies who had been so close to him
in life. As for the Arte, a formal Moonmage tribunal
requisitioned the tome as soon as the story came to light,
seeking to keep it in a safe place at the guild stronghold: a
thorough search of the mage's laboratory and libraries failed to
find it, and scholars believe one of Borrugar's apprentices or
colleagues must have stolen it shortly after his death.

Despite his tragic death, Borrugar Stoutfoot's legacy lives on,
through a lifetime body of work to rival many an archmage. His
early years in the guild are an inspiration to striving
apprentices-- and his untimely end is a sober warning.

==Where to Find Other People to RP With==
Characters gather in various [[Popular Gathering Places|places]] throughout the game to socialize, though some are more permanent fixtures or more highly trafficked than others.

You can also talk to other characters ICly over long distances via:
* [[Gwethdesuan]]s, known popularly as "gweths". Gweths can be purchased from other PCs.
* [[Item:Albredine crystal ring|Albredine crystal rings]], often simply called crystal rings. These can be purchased from static shops in the game.
* [[Item:Colorless albredine ring|Various colored albredine rings]], which will allow group talk between anyone who has a ring attuned to the same color. These are sometimes dropped by creatures, and can be purchased in static shops in game.
* The [[Thoughtcast]] spell. This spell allows the caster to send a message directly to another and communicate with the target using {{tt|think to}} for a very short time.
* A warrior mage's [[Familiar|familiar]], which can relay messages from its master.
* Some other special items, such as [[Gwererest shell|gwererest shells]] and [[:Category:Whisper_charms|whisper charms]] (also called "bird charms").

Prediction

2016-03-29T22:47:32Z

SIDMON: /* Bonding */

: ''See [[Prediction (meditation)|here]] for the Barbarian meditation.''
{{RTOC}}
== General information==

===Predictions===
A prediction simply applies a bonus or penalty to any skill. They are capped at 20% of the base skill, but are not affected by [[Sphere of Influence|sphere of infulence]].<ref>[[Post:Sphere_of_influence_and_prediction_-_11/28/2012_-_14:42]]</ref> Durations range from a few minutes to upwards of two hours.

A person can be under the influence of an unlimited number of predictions, but only one prediction per skill. Multiple predictions on the same skill will average out into one prediction (meaning small positive predictions can be useful to blunt a large negative prediction). They also do not stack with spells or other sources of buffs. E.g. if you have both a self cast Seer's Sense and a positive evasion prediction then only the greater of the two buffs will apply while both effects remain active. If the greater one were to expire first, then the lesser one would apply at that point.

In all forms of divination the messages received accurately reflect the actual result.

Predictions have four aspects: power, duration, affected skill, and polarity (i.e. bonus or penalty) all of which are determined randomly, although this is greatly influenced by your Astrology skill, Wisdom, Charisma, method of prediction used, and how much prophetic insight you have accumulated.<ref>[[Post:Predicting_in_3.0_-_01/23/2013_-_20:36]]</ref> A penalty is most commonly referred to by the colloquial term 'curse,' especially when in game.

===Attributes===
The following is a summary of attributes that play a role in prediction. More detailed explanations can be found in the appropriate sections below.
*{{skill|Astrology}} - Aids in {{com|observe}} and {{com|align}} checks, and modifies power, duration, and accuracy of all predictions, vision predictions in particular.
*{{skill|Scholarship}} - Aids in {{com|observe}} checks.
*{{skill|Perception}} - Aids in {{com|observe}} checks.
*{{stat|Wisdom}} - Modifies power, duration, and accuracy of all predictions.
*{{stat|Charisma}} - Modifies tool bonding chance, and modifies power, duration, and accuracy of vision predictions.
*prediction pool size - Primary determinant of power, duration, and accuracy of all predictions, and modifies tool bonding chance.
*prediction tool quality - Primary determinant of tool bonding chance, and modifies power, duration, and accuracy of tool predictions.

===Observations===
The first step in making any prediction is to successfully {{com|OBSERVE}} a celestial body. Information on specific bodies, such as the skillsets they teach and the circle they are learned at can be found here on the [[Star chart]].

The timer on observations is random from 2-4 minutes. An observation that would add insight to otherwise filled pools will message as such and not start the observation timer.

*Based on scholarship, perception, and astrology.
*Attempts to observe the Sun or any of the moons will always teach at least some regardless of cloud cover.
*Made easier through use of Clear Vision, Aura Sight and a Telescope.
*Piercing Gaze and Telescopes will help reduce cloud cover.
*While not all celestial bodies teach the same amount from an observation, the values are fairly close meaning bodies that touch multiple areas are almost always preferable.
*Not all observations are equal as a result of cloud cover and skill, but they're fairly close so if you can successfully observe it's not worth obsessing over squeezing out every last drop of bonus.
*Some objects require a telescope to observe.
*The best telescopes are stationary in guildhalls, Kssarh's telescope one west of his location is the best in Elanthia.
*In game [[Star chart]]s include a list of what areas each object teaches and the circles they are learned at. ''Note: these are riddled with misinformation currently, so it is best to use online versions.''
*To help resolve parser issues try {{tt|Elanthian Sun}} and {{com|Observe}} {{tt|<object> in sky}}. Also destroy all sunstones and moonstones in the most sadistic method available.

While a prediction can be performed from a single observation, each further observation will fill your pool further, the level of which can be checked with {{com|predict}} {{tt|state all<nowiki>|</nowiki>skillset}}. The amount of insight in your prediction pool is by far the largest influence on the power and duration of any given prediction. More insight will also increase the likelihood of the prediction matching your desired skill as well as polarity, and increases the chance that a polarity inversion is prevented if it does occur. It will also improve the chance that a prediction tool will increase its bond with you.
*Skillset prediction pools do not decay over time.
*[[Luckstone]] enchantments can completely fill a prediction pool without needing an observation.
*[[Read the Ripples]] eliminates the timer between observations for randomly selected constellations allowing prediction pools to be filled faster.
*[[Tezirah's Veil]] can also be used to fill prediction pools randomly, although this comes at the cost of stuns, severe nerve damage, and [[Teleologic corruption]] which reduces the effectiveness of your predictions.

''Scale is assumed to be linear - only the first and last points are certain and there is no reasonable way to discover a non-linearity.

====Align====
In order to make use of a prediction pool you have to {{com|align}} to it first.
*{{com|align}} {{tt|<offense<nowiki>|</nowiki>defense<nowiki>|</nowiki>magic<nowiki>|</nowiki>survival<nowiki>|</nowiki>lore>}} will align you to the chosen prediction pool and your next prediction will be of a random skill within that skillset.
*Alternately, {{com|align}} {{tt|<skill>}} will align you to the chosen skill and your next prediction will be of a random skill within that skill's skillset, but weighted to the chosen skill.
*Predictions default to trying for a bonus. If you want to try for a curse use {{com|align}} {{tt|<skillset<nowiki>|</nowiki>skill> curse}} instead.
:*A prediction that results in the opposite polarity to what you tried to achieve is known as a polarity inversion.
:*The most that the chance of a polarity inversion can be reduced to is 10% regardless of skill, tool bond, stats, or other factors.<ref>[[Post:Sphere_of_influence_and_prediction_-_11/28/2012_-_14:42]]</ref>
*With high skill it is possible to use {{com|align}} {{tt|split}} to only use 50% of aligned prediction pool on the next prediction.
*With even higher skill it is possible to use {{com|align}} {{tt|transmogrify}} to convert one prediction pool into another. The conversion results in some loss of pool size.
*It is not possible to {{com|align}} to the Thanatology skill and it will never be the result of a prediction even if predicting on a Necromancer while {{com|align}}ed to the Survival skillset. Attempting to {{com|align}} to it causes an effect similar to moderate levels of [[Divine Outrage]].

==Prediction methods==
===Visions===
*The most basic way to perform a skill modifying prediction, and the only option without use of a tool, is to simply {{com|predict}} {{tt|future}} after using {{com|align}} to align to a skill or skillset.
*The advantage of this method is it doesn't require any tools and uses your {{skill|Astrology}} and [[Charisma]] to modify the strength of your prediction rather than the stats of a tool.
*The disadvantage of this method is that the best tools will outperform even a highly skilled vision and it has the potential for a major curse and all of your prediction pools emptying.
*See [[Visions]] for full mechanics.
*A very good source of astrology experience, also teaches some scholarship and perception.

===Tools===
In place of [[Visions]] divination tools may be used. Like with visions, the tool is used after {{com|align}}ing to a skill or skillset. See the tool's page for syntax.
*[[Divination charts]], favored by the [[Celestial Compact]].
*[[Divination bones]], favored by the [[Nomads of the Arid Steppe]].
*[[Divination mirror]], favored by the [[Progeny of Tezirah]].
*[[Divination bowl]], favored by the [[Prophets of G'Nar Peth]].
*[[Divination prism]], favored by the [[Monks of the Crystal Hand]].
*[[Divination deck]], favored by the [[:Category:Fortune's Path|Followers of Fortune's Path]].

All tools share some important traits. All must be {{com|invoke}}d to bond to the seer before the first use, all can be {{com|INVOKE}}d a second time to clear the bond (which will reset bond qualities but not physical qualities) and all may be {{com|analyze}}d to evaluate their quality.

The advantage to using a tool is that they can outperform a vision if your tool is bonded well. The disadvantage is that bonding takes a long time, so it will be a while before a tool will reach a state where it will outperform a vision.

Using a tool that your sect has an affinity with provides a small benefit to potency and possibly duration compared to tools you don't have an affinity with. Sectless are treated as not having an affinity with any tool.

====Qualities====
All tools have eleven qualities which can be viewed when you {{com|analyze}} them. These can be split into four physical qualities, four bond qualities, one construction quality, and two age qualities.
=====Physical qualities=====
These vary from tool to tool, either set by a merchant or determined at the time of crafting, and affect the frequency of their respective bond quality increasing: power, duration, skill alignment, and polarity. The more damaged a physical quality the less likely its respective bond quality will increase. Tools will never break even once reaching their most damaged state. These qualities have a chance to be damaged with each use. These are measured differently for each tool type, so refer to each tool type's page for specific messages.

=====Bond qualities=====
These always start at the lowest level and each affects one of the following:
*the power of a prediction
*the duration of a prediction
*the chance of hitting your aligned skill
*the chance of both matching your desired polarity and preventing inversions if they do occur.
Bond qualities cannot be seen unless you have aligned your prophetic talent with the tool via {{com|invoke}}. These may increase, or very rarely, decrease with each use. Each quality has 31 levels ranging from 0 to 30. These are messaged differently for each tool type, so refer to each tool type's page for specific messages.

=====Construction quality=====
This varies from tool to tool, either set by a merchant or determined at the time of crafting, and never changes. It determines how susceptible the physical qualities are to damage. This messaging doesn't differ between tool types.
*The overall craftsmanship is masterful and the ''<tool>'' should prove nearly impervious to damage.
*The overall craftsmanship is spectacular and the ''<tool>'' should prove extremely resistant to damage.
*The overall craftsmanship is very good and the ''<tool>'' should prove resistant to damage.
*The overall craftsmanship is above average and the ''<tool>'' should prove slightly resistant to damage.
*The overall craftsmanship is average.
*The overall craftsmanship is below average and the ''<tool>'' should prove slightly susceptible to damage.
*The overall craftsmanship is poor and the ''<tool>'' should prove rather susceptible to damage.
*The overall craftsmanship is criminally poor, and the ''<tool>'' should likely be destroyed on principle. Possibly the creator as well or defenestrated at the very least.

=====Age qualities=====
These measure how old a tool is and how many times it has been used. Tools no longer break regardless of age or number of uses, therefore the following analysis messages are cosmetic only:

Age:
*The ''<tool>'' is brand new.
*The ''<tool>'' is rather new.
*The ''<tool>'' is somewhat new.
*The ''<tool>'' is at least a year old.
*The ''<tool>'' is at least a couple of years old.
*The ''<tool>'' is over a decade old.
*The ''<tool>'' is an antique.
*The ''<tool>'' is something you'd expect to find on an archeological dig.

|}

====Bonding====
With each use, a tool may increase a bond quality with the chance based on the current level of its respective physical quality. Also with each use, a tool may decrease a physical quality with the chance based on how well constructed the tool is. Each bonding event has the same magnitude, increasing the bond level by one, so there is no variability in bond increases. Tools will never break, regardless of how low the physical qualities reach. This will eventually result in a sort of equilibrium state where the physical qualities are so low that the chance for the bond levels to increase is so small as to be almost none. In addition to the physical quality, the chance of bonding increasing is influenced by having high [[Charisma]] and using a full prediction pool to predict.<ref>[[Post:Questions_on_tools_in_Future_is_Now_-_11/04/2013_-_15:50]]</ref> There is also a bonus to the chance of bonding early in a tool's life, to kick start it. The most dramatic change in a tool will come from critical successes and fumbles which have the potential to influence all physical and bond traits at once, although not every quality will always be affected. The one exception to this is that individual bond qualities become immune to critical fumbles once capped in order to prevent the best tools from eventually decaying to nothing in the long term.<ref>[[Re:_The_positive_awesome_things_from_HE_this_year_-_11/13/2014_-_8:15]]</ref>

Due to the way the math works out this usually results in bond qualities increasing to an equilibrium level that is primarily influenced by the construction stat, but also affected by the starting physical qualities as well as your charisma and how often you use full prediction pools. While it is technically possible to cap an averagely constructed tool, it would take a lot of time and extreme amounts of luck. The better the construction of the tool the much more likely it is to be able to cap it. The single most effective thing you can do to increase your chances of this is to always use a full prediction pool when predicting.

Tools may be re{{com|invoke}}d in order to erase your bond with them, but this will also reset their bond qualities back to the lowest point.

==Prediction results==

===Prediction interpretation===
Each type of prediction method has different messaging to indicate the results of your prediction. Refer to the appropriate divination tool's page, or [[Visions]] if you didn't use a tool, for detailed interpretation messaging.

===EXP mods===
*The most basic way to see your prediction result is by using {{com|EXP}} {{tt|mods}}.
*This will tell you the skill and polarity of your prediction, but does not indicate the potency or duration.
*There is no roundtime involved so this is a quick way to tell at a glance without needing to decipher a prediction or analyze result.

===Predict analyze===
*Attempts to view the active predictions on the target by using {{com|predict}} {{tt|analyze <nowiki>{</nowiki>on <target><nowiki>}</nowiki>}} . Contests Astrology and Power Perception vs target's circle, and the strength and number of predictions.
*[[Aura Sight]] is useful in this skill since it boosts the relevant skills.
*Roundtime generally increased with the number of predictions, but fairly random.
*Inaccuracy only exists without power/duration readings and will decrease with skill but almost always remain to some degree. This can actually be useful through multiple uses to get a general sense of where the prediction lies within the range.
*Detects boosts from a [[CJ|Celestial Jewelry]] enchantment as if they were a prediction.
*A moderate source of astrology experience and a minor source of power perception experience. Will only teach if at least one prediction is active, and experience is constant beyond that. The timer is about 100 seconds.
::''You immediately will your consciousness deep into the flows of fate. A few images materialize before your mind's eye and you pick out the following:
::''A translucent aquamarine spellbook that resolves into a ball of flame. It pops out of existence the moment you notice it. An Elothean man stands immediately before you. Something about him seems strangely familiar.

*This can also indicate the source as a [[CJ|Celestial Jewelry]] enchantment, and it's relative power:
::''A pair of stars glimmer overhead. 
::''A small constellation shines overhead. 
::''A brilliant array of stars gleams overhead. 
*This can also indicate the source as being Sorcerous in nature:
::''For some reason, the display leaves a deep sense of unease lingering in the back of your mind.''

==Other prediction types==

===Events===
*Syntax: {{com|predict}} {{tt|event {optional target} }}
*Requires 10th circle. Learned by having an event predicted on you by another Moon Mage with this ability.
*Requires at least a single observation in the event prediction pool.
:*Filling the event prediction pool is done by using {{com|study}} {{tt|sky}}.
:*The event pool fills drastically faster at night and with more skill.
:*You can check how full your event prediction pool is by using {{com|predict}} {{tt|state event}}
:*Unlike the skillset prediction pools, the event prediction pools decays over time eventually reaching zero if left unused.
:*The chance of a successful prediction is related to how full the pool is, but since there is no round time for a failed attempt the command can be spammed until a prediction is successful.
*Predicting an event on another player will display the vision to both them and yourself.
*Predicting on other guilds will sometimes result in visions related to their guilds that would otherwise be unavailable.
*Occasionally, Moon Mages will get a message indicating something has shifted in the heavens. This is an indication that a time sensitive event prediction is available.
*This is no longer a good source of [[Astrology]] experience, although it does provide a trickle.

''You focus inwardly searching for insight into your future. 
''As your vision clears you see an Elf lecturing a group of students, gesticulating wildly at a variety of star charts and divination tools. A cracked and bloodied sandstone bowl lies next to an unconscious and bleeding student. A fierce growl comes from the east, followed by the sound of breaking glass and a muffled cry.

===Weather===
*Syntax: {{com|predict}} {{tt|weather}}
*Can be used both outside and indoors, although the skill check is harder while indoors.
*With sufficent skill the mage will be able to predict further into the future and with an increasing degree of certainty. Each line represents roughly 10 minutes into the future.
::''You gaze at the heavens, taking careful note of the current weather. You sense the weather will progress as follows: 
::''You predict that light rains are on the way. 
::''After that, light rains are on the way. 
::''After that, light rains are on the way. 
::''After that, the sky will be overcast. 
::''After that, the sky will be overcast. 
::''After that, the skies will be mostly cloudy. 
::''After that, the skies will be mostly cloudy. 
::''After that, the skies will be partly cloudy. 
::''After that, the skies will be mostly cloudy. 
::''After that, the sky will be overcast. 
::''Roundtime: 5 seconds. 
*Can be performed in the [[Astral Plane]] to get a general idea of how the microcosm is changing.
::''You sense that the streams of Grazhir's mana flow steadily and are suffering from minor disruptions. 
::''You believe conditions are currently growing worse. 
::''Roundtime: 10 sec.
*Teaches a small amount of astrology, useful at low levels of skill.

==Other notes==

===Grandfather===
*Syntax is Predict Grandfather Confirm.
*Sets your Astrology skill to circle*2 (this is '''less''' then the circle requirement generally and does '''not''' produce TDPs).
*Only relevant if your Moon Mage predates the Astrology skill
*Does not exist in The Fallen.

===Thanatology===
When a [[Moon Mage]] {{com|align}}s to the Thanatology skill, they receive the following vision:
:Pain! A concept erupts from the back of your mind, cold and crushing. For a few, sharp moments you experience The End -- the death of stars and the deconstruction of fate as a metaphysical force.
:The death of the universe orbits... something. Some force or some entity. Something you cannot see; that you have an unconscious need not to.
:It sees you.

This also taints the Moon Mage with Necromantic taint, similar to what a Necromancer experiences during the middle stages of [[Outrage#Divine Outrage|Divine Outrage]].

If it instead aligns to the {{skill|empathy}} please make a {{com|bug}} report, as this is a reoccuring issue that needs to be remedied.

Mozzik's Four Axioms of Fate

#'''All things are subject to Fate.''' 
#*This includes the Immortals. One may question if Fate predates the Immortals or if it is their creation and yet they have become bound to it through some mechanism. However the question is irrelevant because the answer is unknowable by mortal minds and the consequences the same in either case.
#'''Free will exists.'''
#'''Fate is the force that causes actions.'''
#*Fate dictates what actions will be taken and when. Fate has no involvement in creation or destruction, beyond dictating when and where they must happen.
#'''Fate exists on the [[Plane of Probability]] alone despite the fact that its influence extends well beyond that plane.'''

I was raised by my aunt Leuktheal, in Ilithi. She had always told me that my mother (her twin sister) was dead, and she didn't know who my father was.

My mother went missing without a trace many months before her death. When my Aunt felt her pass away, she went to a distant shrine to Alamhif during a tempestuous rain storm, and prayed for the return of her family. Her request was granted in dramatic fashion, when the clouds directly above the shrine parted, revealing the constellation of the magpie. The starlight from that opening gathered tangibly upon the shrine until it glowed brightly, and I appeared upon it. Though I was just an infant she said she could see her sister in my face, and knew that I was her child. She named me Sideron. She said it meant "anointed in starlight."

While she was standing there next to the glowing shrine protected from the rain, but distracted with me, a dark figure approached her. She didn't see him, until it was too late. He was trying to incapacitate her, at first, but then began simply trying to take me. While they were struggling, the shrine suddenly released the starlight outwards in a wave of energy. The stranger was knocked back, though the energy wave passed harmlessly through my Aunt and myself. The rain began to pour forth once more, and my Aunt fled through the dark back to her home with me cradled in her arms. My mother's soul never returned.

I had a fairly typical and happy childhood. I received a pretty normal education, and my Aunt was a good provider. We didn't see the stranger again until I was 15 years old. My aunt went missing in a similar manner to my mother. I spoke to the authorities for over a week, trying to get help in finding her. They could do nothing. However, at that point, my aunt was suddenly returned to me by a mysterious shadow mage named Safframelia.

My aunt told me what had happened. She was abducted by the same stranger that had assaulted us at the altar. He took her to the laboratory of a bone elf necromancer. There she learned that she was to become a test subject for the necromancer's experiments.

The necromancer had been attempting to increase his elven fertility for many years. Learning of the existence of Ambassador Catrayth, he had decided to extend his experiments to elotheans. My mother had been one of his earliest test subjects in this line, and his only near success. While the process he used on her was able to maintain my strength and health while in the womb, it killed my mother. He was disappointed with the result of a non-Elf child, and acting on impulse killed me, as well. Finding that my soul strangely survived by the grace of the Immortals peaked his interest, though. He sent his professional abductor to retrieve me, but the attempt was thwarted that night at the shrine by divine intervention.

After years of further testing, none of his other elothean-based experiments had been yielding any positive results, so he decided to try one last time using the twin sister of his previous near success: my aunt. Fortunately, Safframelia overheard my pleas with the authorities. She said that the dark moon Katamba had revealed to her that I would one day become much more powerful, so she decided to become an ally. Her abilities allowed her to find and free my aunt from the necromancer. She also agreed to help us hide from the necromancer and his agent.

That night while I was sleeping, I became possessed by the necromancer, through some form of blood magic, without me even realizing it. I didn't harm anyone, but my eyeballs turned a solid blood red, and I surveyed my surroundings silently. Safframelia noticed, and surreptitiously pointed it out to my aunt. The next morning they informed me of what had happened. We ended up deciding to enroll me in the explorer program in Zoluren, until I could figure out another way to protect my mind. This would allow us all to live in relative safety, for now.

Yavash

2016-03-09T06:23:42Z

SIDMON:

[[Image:Yavash.png|right]]

Though Yavash is the most distant of the three moons, it is impossible to miss day or night due to its vivid color. Yavash is encircled by a thick and rapidly moving atmosphere that glows with ruby and crimson hues, though rare breaks in the clouds reveal dark grey rock beneath it. Some Moon Mage spells tap into the violence of Yavash's atmosphere, producing a magical energy called celestial fire.

Moon Mages ascribe to Yavash dominance over [[:Category:Perception Spellbook|Perception]] magic as well as influence over [[:Category:Psychic Projection Spellbook|Psychic Projection]] and [[:Category:Transduction Spellbook|Transduction]] magic.

== Technical details ==

;Orbital period: The interval of time between Yavash rise and Yavash rise fluctuates between the following times:
:* 11 anlas, 22 roisan (5 hours, 52 minutes)
:* 11 anlas, 23 roisan (5 hours, 53 minutes)
;Setting offset: The interval of time between Yavash rise and Yavash set (the time it's visible) fluctuates between the following times:
:* 5 anlas, 27 roisan (2 hours, 57 minutes)
:* 5 anlas, 28 roisan (2 hours, 58 minutes) (seen once)
;Rising offset: The interval of time between Yavash set and Yavash rise (the time it's below the horizon) fluctuates between the following times:
:* 5 anlas, 25 roisan (2 hours 55 minutes)
:* 5 anlas, 26 roisan (2 hours 56 minutes)
;Phase period: The most common duration of a single phase out of the eight in a cycle alternates between low 1840's (new/full, and quarter moons) and mid to high 1790's (crescent and gibbous). This also varies with the gravitational pull of the other moons. This makes the average interval between new moons
:* Approximately 40.42 days (10.1 days)

Katamba

2016-03-09T06:17:33Z

SIDMON:

[[Image:Katamba.png|right|Katamba]]

Katamba is the largest of the three moons and figures most prominently in the mythology of the provinces. Historians say that Katamba shone with golden light in ancient times, but that it was burnt by the breath of the [[World Dragon]]. Katamba's surface -- black as soot and encircled by a faint, miasmatic atmosphere -- lends credence to the tale. Due to its mass, Katamba dominates the tides of [[Elanthia]]. While [[Xibar]] and [[Yavash]] also influence the movement of the oceans, sailors the world over have learned to look to Katamba first.

Moon Mages ascribe to Katamba dominance over [[:Category:Moonlight Manipulation Spellbook|Moonlight Manipulation]] magic as well as influence over [[:Category:Perception Spellbook|Perception]] and [[:Category:Transduction Spellbook|Transduction magic]]. Astrologers also claim that Katamba is not merely a dark moon, but that it emits shadows in the same way that the other moons emit light.

== Technical details ==

;Orbital period: The interval of time between Katamba rise and Katamba rise alternates between the following times:
:* 11 anlas, 21 roisan (5 hours, 51 minutes)
:* 11 anlas, 22 roisan (5 hours, 52 minutes)
;Setting offset: The interval of time between Katamba rise and Katamba set (the time it's visible) fluctuates between the following times:
:* 5 anlas, 26 roisan (2 hours, 56 minutes)
:* 5 anlas, 27 roisan (2 hours, 57 minutes) (usually)
;Rising offset: The interval of time between Katamba set and Katamba rise (the time it's below the horizon) fluctuates between the following times:

Xibar

SIDMON:

[[Image:Xibar.png|right]]

Xibar is both the closest and the smallest of the three moons. Unlike the other two, it lacks any sort of atmosphere, which leads some historians to speculate it was burnt off in the same cataclysm that charred [[Katamba]]. Xibar is covered by myriad shades of blue, but the silvery-blue glow of its vast and pristine ice fields dominate the moon.

Moon Mages ascribe to Xibar dominance over [[:Category:Psychic Projection Spellbook|Psychic Projection]] magic as well as influence over [[:Category:Moonlight Manipulation Spellbook|Moonlight Manipulation]] and [[:Category:Transduction Spellbook|Transduction]] magic.

== Technical details ==

;Orbital period: The interval of time between Xibar rise and Xibar rise alternates between the following times:
:* 11 anlas, 17 roisan (5 hours, 47 minutes)
:* 11 anlas, 18 roisan (5 hours, 48 minutes)
;Setting offset: The interval of time between Xibar rise and Xibar set (the time it's visible) fluctuates between the following times:
:* 5 anlas, 24 roisan (2 hours, 54 minutes)
:* 5 anlas, 25 roisan (2 hours, 55 minutes)
;Rising offset: The interval of time between Xibar set and Xibar rise (the time it's below the horizon) fluctuates between the following times:
:* 5 anlas, 22 roisan (2 hours 52 minutes)
:* 5 anlas, 23 roisan (2 hours 53 minutes)
;Phase period:
The most common duration of a single phase out of the eight in a cycle is approximately 1165 roisaen (minutes). This varies due to influence from the other moons. This makes the average interval of time between new moons
:* Approximately 25 and 8/9 days (6 days, 12 hours)

When Xibar comes close enough to Elanthia every couple decades, rarely will {{sloot|i|clear Xibar topaz}}es rain from the sky.

Astral Plane

2016-02-01T22:33:28Z

SIDMON: /* The Grey Expanse */

{{RTOC}}

The Astral Plane is a realm of thought and psychic magic, where our whim and our will shapes the landscape. Its true form is without even the concept of body, ground, light or shadow. It is without air and without the need of air. Lunar mana is one of the most powerful natural forces on the Astral Plane. Inside the plane Lunar mana is manifest energy and as deadly as fire to touch. [[Moon Mages]] have the ability to access the Astral Plane and use it to very quickly [[Astral_Travel|travel]] great distances across the [[Plane of Abiding]]

==Cosmology of the Astral Plane==
The Astral Plane borders both the [[Plane of Abiding]] and the [[Plane of Probability]]. It has a similar relationship with other, yet stranger planes of being, but none of these share a common border with the Plane of Abiding.

From the [[Planar Observatory]] the Astral Plane is seen as a uniformly grey shape of and indeterminate circular or spherical shape: 
:''A sea of grey light floats in front of your eyes. The grey light is uniform and utterly still, without a sense of texture or even a faint shift in illumination along the horizon. It is impossible to tell if this is a sphere or simply a grey circle. A sense of quiet peace fills you as you look into grey light.

==Known Locations==

====Microcosm====
The microcosm is a small region of the astral plane which corresponds to the magic essence of the shattered moon [[Grazhir]]. [[Grazhir]] is, in a sense, still intact. Its magical pattern -- its essential quality -- still exists, connecting each little pebble of it in streams of mana and lines of sympathy. Somehow the shattered moon's mana is being channeled into the Astral Plane, maintaining itself as a single, holistic magical pattern. This has created a "safe bubble" which can be used by moon mages to [[Astral_Travel|travel]] between its' physical fragments in the [[Plane of Abiding]]<ref>[[Post:Power Perceive - 7/15/2009 - 4:12:23]]</ref>.

=====Shards of Grazhir=====

Although [[Grazhir]] may be still intact within the Astral Plane, on the [[Plane of Abiding]] it has been shattered into numerous fragments. The [[Naming Ritual]] has imbued many of the shards with a magical pattern which imparts it with a unique name and allows them to be used as a conduit for [[astral travel]]. Essentially, each shard is able to cohabit one location and the Astral Plane and an unrelated position in the [[Plane of Abiding]]. This property can be used to allow a [[Moon Mage]] to take advantage of the shorter distances between shards in the Astral Plane to quickly cover great distances in the [[Plane of Abiding]]<ref>[[Post:New treasure system - 2/1/2009 - 14:57:10]]</ref>.

With the exception of [[#Axis|Axis]], each is associated with a [[#Pilars|Pillar]] that makes [[Astral Travel]] between the shards possible.

The currently known (and [[Naming_Ritual|named]] shards are: [[Grazhir#Rolagi|Rolagi]], [[Grazhir#Taniendar|Taniendar]], [[Grazhir#Marendin|Marendin]], [[Grazhir#Dinegavren|Dinegavren]], [[Grazhir#Erekinzil|Erekinzil]], [[Grazhir#Mintais|Mintais]], [[Grazhir#Asharshpar'i|Asharshpar'i]], [[Grazhir#Emalerje|Emalerje]], [[Grazhir#Dor'na'torna|Dor'na'torna]], [[Grazhir#Tamigen|Tamigen]], [[Grazhir#Teloish|Teloish]], [[Grazhir#Aliaes|Aliaes]], [[Grazhir#Auilusi|Auilusi]], [[Grazhir#Besoge|Besoge]], [[Grazhir#Tabelrem|Tabelrem]], and [[Grazhir#Vellano|Vellano]].

=====Axis=====

Axis is the name given to the largest [[Grazhir]] shard. At the center of the microcosm and below the pillars is a source of [[Grazhir]] mana so powerful that it dominates the entire system. It is unknown where lies on [[Elanthia]].

=====Pillars=====

Between Axis and the other shards are ten pillars. Each stream of [[Grazhir]] mana routes through one of the pillars before connecting to [[#Axis|Axis]]. This provides a constant for navigation and lets Elanthians approach [[#Axis|Axis]] far closer than would otherwise be safe. It is stated during the quest to learn about [[astral travel]] that the Pillars are not a natural occurrence, but neither are they a conscious creation; it is heavily implied that the collective [[Moon Mage]] consciousness caused the Pillars to form, and that each is symbolically associated with a different [[Moon Mage]] [[sects|sect]], faction or ideal.

Observe command

2016-01-25T22:32:10Z

SIDMON:

The '''{{tt|observe}} [[page type is::command]]''' is used primarily for [[guild association is::Moon Mage|Moon Mages]] to view celestial bodies and gain insight to preform predictions on themselves or others. It's secondary function acts much like the LOOK command, except it outputs the following to the user: "You look around, trying to appear nonchalant."

== Syntax ==
OBSERVE 
OBSERVE WEATHER - Will let you know the weather. Useful if you are drying things in a pyramid. 
OBSERVE <celestial body> - Moon Mages 
OBSERVE SKY - Gives an overview of celestial bodies that are visible without the aid of a telescope. Non-Moon Mages have a significantly longer RT for this. 

Upon a successful observation, the player will receive a message similar to the following:

:''You scan the skies for a few moments.'' 
:''Xibar is unobscured by clouds.'' 
:''Waxing still, half of the blue moon Xibar looks down from above.'' 
:''It is quite near and glowing rather insistently.'' 
 
:''You learned something useful from your observation.'' 
:''Roundtime: 5 sec.'' 

The roundtime is equal to 20 - circle/2 with a minimum of 5, but can increase further due to cloud cover.

Once a [[Moon Mage]] has observed a celestial body and learned something from it, they may then use the {{com|PREDICT}} command to preform a prediction and give a bonus or penalty to a skill based on the result of said prediction.

There is a timer of 2-4 minutes (random) that restricts the time between possible successful observations. If a player tries to observe too soon, they receive a message similar to this:

:''You scan the skies for a few moments.'' 
:''Xibar is unobscured by clouds.'' 
:''Waxing still, half of the blue moon Xibar looks down from above.'' 
:''It is quite near and glowing rather insistently.'' 
 
:''You have not pondered your last observation sufficiently.'' 
:''You are unable to make use of this latest observation.'' 
:''Roundtime: 5 sec.'' 

It should be noted that it is possible to fail in an observation, based on a few factors, including, but not limited to, cloud cover, Astrology skill, and Perception skill. Upon failing an observation the player will receive a message similar to this:

:''You scan the skies for a few moments.'' 
:''Xibar is unobscured by clouds.'' 
:''Waxing still, half of the blue moon Xibar looks down from above.'' 
:''It is quite near and glowing rather insistently.'' 
 
:''You fail to learn anything useful from your observation.'' 
:''Roundtime: 5 sec.'' 

[[Telescopes]] will help with observations (Through {{com|CENTER}} followed by {{com|PEER}}) and the moons and Sun will always grant at least a partial success through anything except total cloud cover.

Divination mirror

2016-01-10T16:51:44Z

SIDMON: /* Alignment damage */

{{RTOC}}
==Recall==
Designed after the legendary mirror used by Tezirah, this mirror is a scrying tool used by Moon Mages. Detractors claim that all such mirrors should be destroyed, some because they worry that Tezirah went mad while scrying, others simply to remove the Guild's association with the magess. Others are quick to disagree, pointing out that the mirrors themselves hold the same properties as other divination tools, while some, most notably the mages who call themselves the Progeny of Tezirah, consider their use to be a show of respect for a mage who, despite her legendary actions, was by all accounts a most skilled and powerful seer. 
 When gazed into by a prophet with intent, many possible futures will converge into one yielding a view of what may come. The most potent of divinations will be rendered in a blaze of colour while weaker portents remain clad in shadows. 
 
Regardless of the politics involved, the indisputable fact remains that divination mirrors are particularly suited for inflicting terrible curses.

==Properties==
*Sect Affinity: The [[Progeny of Tezirah]].
*Domain: Curses. Mirrors grant a slight bonus to potency and duration when applying a curse.
*Prediction Affinity: Potency. Divination mirrors have a slightly higher base physical quality for potency than other tools.

==Availability==
The following table includes all known reliable (or semi-reliable, in the case of auctions) sources of mirrors, with some example wares. Any other wares from the same source will be of the same quality as the example(s). The quality listed in the table is overall craftsmanship, so take care to shop around. In particular, [[The Future is Now]] is known for offering mirrors that are strong on one quality and weaker on others.

===Bond qualities===

====Potency bond====
Potency bond is indicated by how defined your reflection is relative to the background. The more contrast the weaker the bond.
{| class=wikitable
! width=80% | '''Message''' || width=20% align=center | Level
|-
| Your reflection is perfectly defined in contrast to the malleable surroundings. || align=center | 0

|-
| || align=center | ???-29
|-

|}

====Polarity bond====
Polarity bond is indicated by your body's state in the reflection. The more sickly you appear the weaker the bond.
{| class=wikitable
! width=80% | '''Message''' || width=20% align=center | Level
|-
| His/her body is clearly atrophied and malnourished flesh hangs pathetically from his/her bones. || align=center | 0

|-
| || align=center | 30
|}

===Age and construction qualities===
These are identical for all types of tools. See [[Prediction#Construction Quality|Prediction]] for a list of both.

===Example===

:''The glass is '''clear'''.
:''The surface of the mirror is '''flat'''.
:''The mirror's frame has '''reasonable integrity'''.
:''The reflective coating is '''smoothly spread across the glass, resulting in a mundane image'''.
:''The mirror is rather new.
:''It appears to have seen little use.
:''The overall craftsmanship is '''above average''' and the mirror should prove '''slightly resistant to damage'''.

:''Recognizing the investiture as your own, you cautiously probe the mirror with your prophetic talent.

:''Your reflection is '''perfectly defined in contrast to the malleable surroundings'''.
:''He appears as you were as '''a youth'''.
:''He '''hides his face behind his hands'''.
:''His body is '''clearly atrophied and malnourished flesh hangs pathetically from his bones'''.

This mirror is quite new and barely used. It has an average level of damage across all physical qualities which means all of the bond qualities will still be able to increase fairly regularly. It is of better than average construction, so the physical qualities will damaged less often than for an average mirror. The bond qualities are all quite low, although the skill alignment and duration bonds are slightly stronger than the others. This results in predictions being ever so slightly more likely to land on the desired skill when aligning to a specific one, and the durations of your predictions with this mirror will be more likely to be slightly longer on average.

==Prediction interpretation==

===Potency===
The more colors that appear the greater the potency. 
'''Disclaimer:''' The power cap is known to be 20% of the ranks of the predicted skill. However, beyond that all ranges listed are ''estimates only''.
{| class=wikitable align=center
! width=80% | '''You see yourself in surroundings very much like your own...''' || width=20% | %
|-

|-
| however, only the primary colors are rendered vividly while the secondaries are lost in white and shadow. || 18-19
|-
| Though they are saturated with vibrant colours, the tonality is alien and wrong. || 20
|}

===Duration===
Instead of indicating a relative duration like with other divination tools, the message indicates an explicit time in game when the prediction will end.
:''Judging by the heavens above this prophecy will come to pass by '''<early|the middle of|late> <anlas>'''.''
Since each anlas lasts 30 minutes this means that the finest resolution available is a 10 minute window, although it is very easy to determine when that window will occur.

===Skill and polarity===
The action you are performing in the vision determines the skill. If the action's outcome is successful then it is a bonus. If it is a failure then it is a curse.

===Special messages===
Special messages usually indicate either damage to a physical quality or an increase to a bond quality, although it can also indicate a polarity inversion or a prediction averaging.

*The threads of prophecy respond sluggishly to your efforts, as if already strained.
::''You already have a prediction on that skill. Your two predictions are now averaged.''
*The mirror oozes wisps of shadow which leech into your flesh and eagerly begin to feed. The process leaves no physical mark but vague feelings of '''prophetic impotence''' linger.
::''The potency bond quality increased.''
*The mirror oozes wisps of shadow which leech into your flesh and eagerly begin to feed. The process leaves no physical mark but vague feelings of '''unnatural age''' linger.
::''The duration bond quality increased.''
*The mirror oozes wisps of shadow which leech into your flesh and eagerly begin to feed. The process leaves no physical mark but vague feelings of '''lethargy''' linger.
::''The alignment bond quality increased.''
*The mirror oozes wisps of shadow which leech into your flesh and eagerly begin to feed. The process leaves no physical mark but vague feelings of '''???''' linger.
::''The polarity bond quality increased.''
*A blast of heat emanates from the surface of the mirror as the glass appears to momentarily bubble and liquefy.
::''Damage to either the potency or polarity physical quality. It is not possible to tell which unless the quality happen to move into the next messaging range when viewed by {{com|analyze}}. It is probable that this is also the message for the other two damage qualities as well.''
*???
::''Critical success. All bond qualities have a chance to increase slightly, and guaranteed to be a potent bonus.
*???
::''Critical fumble. All physical and bond qualities have a chance to decrease slightly, and guaranteed to be a nasty curse. Capped bond values are immune.''
*You sense a darker fate that lurks within the mirror but your careful observations brought this reflection to the surface instead.
::''Polarity inversion prevented due to prediction pool.
*You sensed a lighter fate attempting to surface but your reflection within the mirror suppressed it.
::''Polarity inversion prevented due to polarity bond.

===Example===
:''You see yourself in surroundings very much like your own, however, only the primary colours are rendered vividly while the secondaries are lost in white and shadow.
:''You deflect a blow from a vykathi reaper with your shield as you press the assault.
:''Judging by the heavens above this prophecy will come to pass by early Phelim's Vigil.
:''You sense a darker fate that lurks within the mirror but your careful observations brought this reflection to the surface instead.
:''The mirror oozes wisps of shadow which leech into your flesh and eagerly begin to feed. The process leaves no physical mark but vague feelings of lethargy linger.
This is a very strong, positive prediction on the Shield Usage skill that will end in the first third of the anlas Phelim's Vigil. The prediction inverted polarity from a bonus to a curse but the inversion was prevented by your prediction pool observations, and the skill alignment bond quality increased.

==Creation==
Creation of divination mirrors is not yet possible. Presumably it will use the [[Enchanting]] skill.

Of the four large ones, the obelisk on [[Taisgath]] remains functional, the two others discovered equivalents have been destroyed in study or destroyed before discovery.

A fourth one is conjectured to have been destroyed in the shattering of [[Grazhir]].

A smaller fifth, and only tangentially linked obelisk was recently discovered in the [[Dragonspine Mountains]].

{{UpdateDR3|Article needs development}}
Debilitation is a supernatural/magic skill introduced in [[Magic 3.0]], which gauges your ability to successfully penalize others without causing direct damage. It is the primary skill taken into account when casting spells that debuff others or produce status effects. Success is determined via a [[Contested abilities|stat contest]]. Debilitation is trained in combat, by casting spells on enemies, and uses skill caps comparable with other combat skills.

SIDMON: /* Contested Spells Contests */

== Contested Spells Contests ==
[[Primary Magic]] and [[Debilitation skill]] do NOT play a direct role in the success or failure of a contested spell, except in the fact that it allows a mage to put more mana into the spell.

This will mean that individual mages, depending on how they have and want to train their stats, will tend to have a particular type of contested spell that they excel at. Likewise, there will be particular targets who may be more or less resistant to specific types of contested spells. All of the above applies equally to both critters and players.

Moon Mage

2015-11-14T02:24:28Z

SIDMON: /* Circle Requirements */

::''Returning players may want to read the page for [[Returning Players]] before continuing.''
::'''''New to the game? You may want to check out the [[Moon Mage new player guide|new player guide for this guild]].'''''
{{guild infobox|guild=Moon Mage|image=Small_moonie_300.jpg
|skill1=Magic|skill2a=Lore|skill2b=Survival|skill3a=Weapon|skill3b=Armor
|abilities= Lunar Magic, Prediction, Enchanting
|mana=Lunar}}

'''Moon Mages''' are an esoteric collective of magicians, scholars and soothsayers from several different sects. Known for the versatile and powerful magic that flows from their fingertips and their ability to foretell the future, Moon Mages are among the most potent spellcasters on [[Elanthia]].

Their abilities are tied closely to the rising and setting of the three moons [[Xibar]], [[Yavash]] and [[Katamba]], as well as the motions of other heavenly bodies. Thus when the skies smile down upon a Moon Mage, his powers are strong; yet when all the moons have set, he is considerably weaker.

==Official Information==
[[Image:MoonMageCrest.jpg|thumb|'''Guild crest:''' Six towers on a field of stars encircled by the three Elanthian moons]]Information courtesy of [http://www.play.net/dr/info/guilds/mm.asp Dragonrealms Website].
=== Guild Hall Locations ===
; [[Crossing|The Crossing]]
: In a massive observatory outside the city proper, [[Kssarh|Celestian Kssarh T'Kinnirii]] teaches new students with a passion that most would dub abusive. (You can type DIR MOON MAGE for directions.)
; [[Taisgath]]
: Housed inside the tremendous shell of some unknown sea beast, the Moon Mage Guild on Taisgath is overseen by [[Lomtaun|Fateweaver Lomtaun Nedorath]] of the [[Fortune's Path|Gypsies]].
; [[Shard]]
: [[Mortom|Tezirite Mortom Saist]], respected Guildleader and politician, welcomes all Moon Mages in the Great Tower of Shard... despite his quirks.
; Lesser Fist (south of [[Riverhaven]])
: Within a remarkable guildhall inside a dormant volcano, [[Tiv|Guildleader Tiv]] trains students in the ways of the [[Monks of the Crystal Hand]].
; [[Riverhaven]]
: [[Gylwyn|Guildleader Gylwyn]], after a meteoric rise and equally dramatic stint with exile, has returned to the graces of the Moon Mage Guild and teaches Theren students in her spire north of Riverhaven.
; [[Hibarnhvidar]]
: [[Cherulisa|Guildleader Cherulisa D'Shari'sendal]], resides in The Spire on the Trabe Plateau.

Another renowned guild leader, about whom little is publicly known but their name and sect affiliation, is [[Estrille|Prophet Estrille Ardwens]].

=== Skillsets and Common Races===
A Moon Mage's primary [[Guilds#Specific_Skill_Sets|skillset]] is {{catskill|Magic}}. {{catskill|Lore}} and {{catskill|Survival}} are secondary skillsets, with {{catskill|Weapon}} and {{catskill|Armor}} bringing up the rear as tertiary skills.

Moon Mages break down into the following races.

[[Moon mage spells]]

====Guild [[Sorcery]]====
Moon Mages as a magic prime guild have access to a guild specific sorcery called [[:Category:Teleologic Sorcery Spellbook|Teleologic Sorcery]]. These spells are a mixture of Lunar and either Holy or Elemental mana. The common theme of their effects is the manipulation of Fate in ways that most Moon Mages would deem fundamentally wrong. As these are sorcery spells, the Moon Mage guild does not endorse nor teach their use thus requiring any mage wishing to learn their secrets to seek them on spell scrolls.

The casting of these spells carries several possible consequences.
*The possibility of [[Sorcery#Backlash_Effects|volatile backlash]] that can happen when mixing mana types.
*Accusation and arrest for Forbidden Practices which will also give [[Outrage#Social Corruption|Social Corruption]].
*Small amounts of [[Teleologic Corruption]]. This is a corrupting factor on a Moon Mages link to the Plane of Probability and will affect the mages ability to predict the future.

=== [[Moon Mage Attunement]] ===
Moon Mages have a [[Moon Mage Attunement|unique]] variation on [[Attunement skill|perceiving power]] that goes beyond what most other guilds can do. While most magic users find the number of mana streams to be location-dependent, the mana streams for Lunar Magic are time-dependent, reflecting the conditions of the moon and stars.

As such, Moon Mages may [[Perceive command|perceive]]:
*The moons of Elanthia, either individually or all at once
*The available mana for each Moon Mage spellbook, either individually or all at once
*The source of a Locate spell
*A rough estimate of the current time, even underground
*The magical status of other characters or creatures
*The distance to nearby planets

=== [[Prediction]] ===
The ability to foresee a character's future. This ability will either provide a temporary bonus or penalty to the recipient's skill.

Several tools may be of use in performing predictions:

*See the [[Star Chart]] for information on constellations
*[[Celestial Charts]], favored by the [[Celestial Compact]].
*[[Divination Bones]], favored by the [[Nomads of the Arid Steppe]].
*[[Divination Mirrors|Ornate Mirror]], favored by the [[Progeny of Tezirah]].
*[[Divination Bowls|Sandstone Bowl]], favored by the [[Prophets of G'Nar Peth]].
*[[Sapphire Prisms|Sapphire Prism]], favored by the [[Monks of the Crystal Hand]].
*[[Tokka Cards]], favored by the [[:Category:Fortune's Path|Followers of Fortune's Path]].

=== [[Moon Mage Enchanting|Enchanting]] ===
The ability to imbue spell-like effects onto items.

=== [[Astral Travel|Astral Travel]] ===
Astral Travel is an ability that allows [[Moon Mage]]s to enter and navigate the [[Astral Plane]], allowing them to bridge massive distances on the [[Plane of Abiding]] in almost no time. The ability is dangerous and often fatal and was only recently made possible by the invention of the [[Naming Ritual]], which is used on Grazhir shards to imprint them with a magical pattern of its name which allows a mage to use it as an anchor.

===Recall Heavens===
Moon Mages have the ability to use the {{com|Recall}} command to aid in deciphering the heavens.
*{{tt|RECALL HEAVENS}} will give information regarding the individual constellations and what skillsets they give prediction information on.
*{{tt|RECALL HEAVENS GRAZHIR}} will remind the mage which [[Grazhir]] shards they have memorized.

===100th Circle Ability===
Upon being promoted to 99th circle the Moon Mage Guildleaders will task the mage with a quest for better understanding of the cosmos. This quest must be completed in order to advance to 100th circle and beyond. After completion the mage is granted the ability to tap into the [[Astral Plane]] from anywhere in the land by teleporting or moongating to [[Grazhir]] rather than the three other moons. This ability also provides security to teleporting to a moon that is no longer in the sky by automatically shunting the mage to the nearest Grazhir shard rather than the typical messy outcome.

==Lesser Guild Abilities==
=== [[Time Sense]] ===
The ability for a Moon Mage to tell the time of day even when they cannot see the sky due to affinity to the moons and celestial bodies.
=== [[Backtrace]] ===
The ability to trace a [[Locate]] back to the caster and his/her location.
=== [[Align(Moon Mage)|Align]] ===
Align is an ability learned by Moon Mages and has several effects.
*When the mage is aligned to one of the moons, spells that require a moon will default to the aligned moon.
*When the mage is aligned to Grazhir and has completed the 100th circle ability quest, any rogue teleports or moongates will send the mage to the nearest Astral Plane conduit.
*When using the prediction system or the Tangled Fate spell the mage must align to the skillset or individual skill they wish to predict upon.

'''Moon Mages''' are an esoteric collective of magicians, scholars and soothsayers from several different sects. Known for the versatile and powerful magic that flows from their fingertips and their ability to foretell the future, Moon Mages are among the most potent spellcasters on [[Elanthia]].

Their abilities are tied closely to the rising and setting of the three moons [[Xibar]], [[Yavash]] and [[Katamba]], as well as the motions of other heavenly bodies. Thus when the skies smile down upon a Moon Mage, his powers are strong; yet when all the moons have set, he is considerably weaker.

==Official Information==
[[Image:MoonMageCrest.jpg|thumb|'''Guild crest:''' Six towers on a field of stars encircled by the three Elanthian moons]]Information courtesy of [http://www.play.net/dr/info/guilds/mm.asp Dragonrealms Website].
=== Guild Hall Locations ===
; [[Crossing|The Crossing]]
: In a massive observatory outside the city proper, [[Kssarh|Celestian Kssarh T'Kinnirii]] teaches new students with a passion that most would dub abusive. (You can type DIR MOON MAGE for directions.)
; [[Taisgath]]
: Housed inside the tremendous shell of some unknown sea beast, the Moon Mage Guild on Taisgath is overseen by [[Lomtaun|Fateweaver Lomtaun Nedorath]] of the [[Fortune's Path|Gypsies]].
; [[Shard]]
: [[Mortom|Tezirite Mortom Saist]], respected Guildleader and politician, welcomes all Moon Mages in the Great Tower of Shard... despite his quirks.
; Lesser Fist (south of [[Riverhaven]])
: Within a remarkable guildhall inside a dormant volcano, [[Tiv|Guildleader Tiv]] trains students in the ways of the [[Monks of the Crystal Hand]].
; [[Riverhaven]]
: [[Gylwyn|Guildleader Gylwyn]], after a meteoric rise and equally dramatic stint with exile, has returned to the graces of the Moon Mage Guild and teaches Theren students in her spire north of Riverhaven.
; [[Hibarnhvidar]]
: [[Cherulisa|Guildleader Cherulisa D'Shari'sendal]], resides in The Spire on the Trabe Plateau.

Another renowned guild leader, about whom little is publicly known but their name and sect affiliation, is [[Estrille|Prophet Estrille Ardwens]].

Chant command

2015-11-03T22:47:21Z

SIDMON: /* Moon Mage Cantrips */

==Syntax==
<tt>CHANT <text></tt>. Separate each line by a semicolon. For example:

CHANT The wind was a torrent of darkness;Among the gusty trees...

Others will see:

''[Character]'' chants in a ''[voice type]'' voice:

"The wind was a torrent of darkness
Among the gusty trees..."

;Emotes
Unlike with the <tt>[[Sing command|SING]]</tt> command, you cannot alter your chanting with emotes such as "wistfully" or "angrily".

==Vocal Ranges==
All characters are randomly assigned a chanting voice type (within the [[Practice command#racial ranges|range]] dictated by race and gender), such as soprano, alto, or tenor. You can check your natural voice type with the {{tt|PRACTICE VOICE}} command.

[[guild association is::Bard]]s with sufficient [[Vocals]] skill have access to all voice types for their gender regardless of race and can change their voice types at will with the <tt>PRACTICE VOICE <type></tt> command. Non-Bards cannot change their voice types.

==Usage Note==
Using this command to draw attention to yourself (e.g., to sell something or ask for healing) is considered disruptive and may be abuse.

==Bardic Enchantes==
This command can also be used by [[guild association is::Bard]]s to start certain [[enchante]]s. Some [[enchante]]s specifically require chanting. Syntax:

{{tt|CHANT <enchante>}}

==Moon Mage Cantrips==
This command can also be used by [[guild association is::Moon Mage]]s to activate their [[Moon_Mage_Cantrips|cantrip]]s.
Syntax:

{{tt|CHANT <cantrip>}}

'''Moon Mages''' are an esoteric collective of magicians, scholars and soothsayers from several different sects. Known for the versatile and powerful magic that flows from their fingertips and their ability to foretell the future, Moon Mages are among the most potent spellcasters on [[Elanthia]].

Their abilities are tied closely to the rising and setting of the three moons [[Xibar]], [[Yavash]] and [[Katamba]], as well as the motions of other heavenly bodies. Thus when the skies smile down upon a Moon Mage, his powers are strong; yet when all the moons have set, he is considerably weaker.

==Official Information==
[[Image:MoonMageCrest.jpg|thumb|'''Guild crest:''' Six towers on a field of stars encircled by the three Elanthian moons]]Information courtesy of [http://www.play.net/dr/info/guilds/mm.asp Dragonrealms Website].
=== Guild Hall Locations ===
; [[Crossing|The Crossing]]
: In a massive observatory outside the city proper, [[Kssarh|Celestian Kssarh T'Kinnirii]] teaches new students with a passion that most would dub abusive. (You can type DIR MOON MAGE for directions.)
; [[Taisgath]]
: Housed inside the tremendous shell of some unknown sea beast, the Moon Mage Guild on Taisgath is overseen by [[Lomtaun|Fateweaver Lomtaun Nedorath]] of the [[Fortune's Path|Gypsies]].
; [[Shard]]
: [[Mortom|Tezirite Mortom Saist]], respected Guildleader and politician, welcomes all Moon Mages in the Great Tower of Shard... despite his quirks.
; Lesser Fist (south of [[Riverhaven]])
: Within a remarkable guildhall inside a dormant volcano, [[Tiv|Guildleader Tiv]] trains students in the ways of the [[Monks of the Crystal Hand]].
; [[Riverhaven]]
: [[Gylwyn|Guildleader Gylwyn]], after a meteoric rise and equally dramatic stint with exile, has returned to the graces of the Moon Mage Guild and teaches Theren students in her spire north of Riverhaven.
; [[Hibarnhvidar]]
: [[Cherulisa|Guildleader Cherulisa D'Shari'sendal]], resides in The Spire on the Trabe Plateau.

Another renowned guild leader, about whom little is publicly known but their name and sect affiliation, is [[Estrille|Prophet Estrille Ardwens]].

=== Skillsets and Common Races===
A Moon Mage's primary [[Guilds#Specific_Skill_Sets|skillset]] is {{catskill|Magic}}. {{catskill|Lore}} and {{catskill|Survival}} are secondary skillsets, with {{catskill|Weapon}} and {{catskill|Armor}} bringing up the rear as tertiary skills.

====Guild [[Sorcery]]====
Moon Mages as a magic prime guild have access to a guild specific sorcery called [[:Category:Teleologic Sorcery Spellbook|Teleologic Sorcery]]. These spells are a mixture of Lunar and either Holy or Elemental mana. The common theme of their effects is the manipulation of Fate in ways that most Moon Mages would deem fundamentally wrong. As these are sorcery spells, the Moon Mage guild does not endorse nor teach their use thus requiring any mage wishing to learn their secrets to seek them on spell scrolls.

The casting of these spells carries several possible consequences.
*The possibility of [[Sorcery#Backlash_Effects|volatile backlash]] that can happen when mixing mana types.
*Accusation and arrest for Forbidden Practices which will also give [[Outrage#Social Corruption|Social Corruption]].
*Small amounts of [[Teleologic Corruption]]. This is a corrupting factor on a Moon Mages link to the Plane of Probability and will affect the mages ability to predict the future.

=== [[Moon Mage Power Perception]] ===
Moon Mages have a [[Moon Mage Power Perception|unique]] way of [[Power Perception|perceiving power]] that goes beyond what most other guilds can do.

=== [[Prediction]] ===
The ability to foresee a character's future. This ability will either provide a temporary bonus or penalty to the recipient's skill.

Several tools may be of use in performing predictions:

*See the [[Star Chart]] for information on constellations
*[[Celestial Charts]], favored by the [[Celestial Compact]].
*[[Divination Bones]], favored by the [[Nomads of the Arid Steppe]].
*[[Divination Mirrors|Ornate Mirror]], favored by the [[Progeny of Tezirah]].
*[[Divination Bowls|Sandstone Bowl]], favored by the [[Prophets of G'Nar Peth]].
*[[Sapphire Prisms|Sapphire Prism]], favored by the [[Monks of the Crystal Hand]].
*[[Tokka Cards]], favored by the [[:Category:Fortune's Path|Followers of Fortune's Path]].

=== [[Moon Mage Enchanting|Enchanting]] ===
The ability to imbue spell-like effects onto items.

=== [[Astral Travel|Astral Travel]] ===
Astral Travel is an ability that allows [[Moon Mage]]s to enter and navigate the [[Astral Plane]], allowing them to bridge massive distances on the [[Plane of Abiding]] in almost no time. The ability is dangerous and often fatal and was only recently made possible by the invention of the [[Naming Ritual]], which is used on Grazhir shards to imprint them with a magical pattern of its name which allows a mage to use it as an anchor.

===Recall Heavens===
Moon Mages have the ability to use the {{com|Recall}} command to aid in deciphering the heavens.
*{{tt|RECALL HEAVENS}} will give information regarding the individual constellations and what skillsets they give prediction information on.
*{{tt|RECALL HEAVENS GRAZHIR}} will remind the mage which [[Grazhir]] shards they have memorized.

===100th Circle Ability===
Upon being promoted to 99th circle the Moon Mage Guildleaders will task the mage with a quest for better understanding of the cosmos. This quest must be completed in order to advance to 100th circle and beyond. After completion the mage is granted the ability to tap into the [[Astral Plane]] from anywhere in the land by teleporting or moongating to [[Grazhir]] rather than the three other moons. This ability also provides security to teleporting to a moon that is no longer in the sky by automatically shunting the mage to the nearest Grazhir shard rather than the typical messy outcome.

==Lesser Guild Abilities==
=== [[Time Sense]] ===
The ability for a Moon Mage to tell the time of day even when they cannot see the sky due to affinity to the moons and celestial bodies.
=== [[Backtrace]] ===
The ability to trace a [[Locate]] back to the caster and his/her location.
=== [[Align(Moon Mage)|Align]] ===
Align is an ability learned by Moon Mages and has several effects.
*When the mage is aligned to one of the moons, spells that require a moon will default to the aligned moon.
*When the mage is aligned to Grazhir and has completed the 100th circle ability quest, any rogue teleports or moongates will send the mage to the nearest Astral Plane conduit.
*When using the prediction system or the Tangled Fate spell the mage must align to the skillset or individual skill they wish to predict upon.

Perception skill

2015-05-20T23:01:57Z

SIDMON: /* Abilities and spells that boost Perception */

The '''Perception [[page type is::skill]]''' is the main defense against both stealthy creatures (and characters) as well as {{com|steal|pickpocketing}} and [[backstab]]bing.

==Ways to train==
*Foraging (Collect <item> being the most efficient.)
*Utilizing the [[Hunt command]]
*Juggling
*Searching
*Noticing people or creatures acting stealthy. Creatures that ambush include:
**[[Sleazy Lout]]
**[[Immature Firecat]]
**[[Young Firecat]]
**[[Footpad (Creature)|Footpad]]
**[[Thug (Creature)|Thug]]
**[[Ruffian (Creature)|Ruffian]]
**[[Cutthroat (Creature)|Cutthroat]]
**[[Golden Pard]]
**[[Vicious Warcat]]
**[[Lanky Grey Lach]]
**[[Long-fanged Warcat]]
**[[Clouded Arzumos]]
**[[Sinuous Elsralael]]
**[[Faenrae Stalker]]
**[[Supple Firecat]]
**[[Sabre-toothed Warcat]]
**[[Muscular Firecat]]
**[[Lun'Shele Hunter]]
**[[Faenrae Assassin]]
**[[Lun'Shele Trekhalo]]
**[[Armadillo]]
*Catching someone stealing
*Running [[Ranger]] trails
*Disarming traps
*Marking items in a shop (thief only)

==Uses==
*Finding hidden creatures and people.
**Hiding and stalking skill do not help you see somebody hide or stalk. Seeing somebody hide is harder than searching them out afterward. ([http://www.play.net/forums/messages.asp?forum=20&category=4&topic=3&message=5718 GameMaster Zeyurn]) With around 100 ranks in perception, you will start seeing hidden people without even searching for them.
*Finding and disarming traps.
*Locating hidden paths, such as the trail into [[Forest Geni]].
*Foraging (provides a small bonus to foraging skill)
*Nearly 100 [[:Category:Titles|Titles]] require Perception ranks.

==Abilities and spells that boost Perception==
*[[Clear Vision]] spell
*[[Eye of Kertigen]] enchante
*[[Revelation]] spell
*[[Khri|Khri Sight]]
*[[Owl Form|Barbarian Owl Form]]
*[[Glyphs#Glyph_of_Light|Glyph of Light]]

==Miscellaneous==
Perception skill is reduced at nighttime unless using a dark-vision ability, such as [[Khri|Khri Sight]]. This change occurred Summer of 2007.

As confirmed by [[GameMaster]] [[Zeyurn]] on 3/14/2008, [[Intelligence]] and [[Wisdom]] are the statistics involved in Perception.

Thanks to the [[foraging]] experience changes, foraging is currently faster than juggling in terms of training perception. Foraging vines, for instance, moves the perception skill by one mindstate every 7 forages without using careful or precise at 20 INT, 10 DIS, and 81 perception.

==Juggling and weights==

In general, you should juggle something that weighs 1/10 of your Perception ranks, rounded down to the nearest 5. For example, if you had 150 ranks in Perception, you would want to juggle something that weighed 15 stones. If you had 154 ranks in Perception, 15 stones would still be your ideal juggling weight.

Note that if you immediately drop the objects you're juggling, you will not gain any Perception experience. This means that you are trying to juggle something that is too heavy.

''Per GM Ssra[http://www.play.net/forums/messages.asp?forum=20&category=1&topic=13&message=1497] the juggling code is set up to only support teaching perception with jugglings weights of 70 stones or less.''

Stealth skill

2015-05-20T22:58:04Z

SIDMON:

New [[Skills 3.0|DR 3.0]] [[page type is::skill]] for the combination of the previous skills Hiding and Stalking. Actions which previously trained Hiding or Stalking or were governed by one of these two skills now fall under Stealth instead.

==Hiding & Stalking==
The Stealth skill is a measure of how well you can find a hiding place without being noticed, stay hidden, and move while hidden. It is affected by your wounds, [[armor]] type, combat status, and [[Discipline]]. It is contested against [[Perception]].

==Training Stealth==
There are various methods to learn Stealth. Initially, depending on the type of armor you chose it may be very difficult to learn hiding against creatures you hunt. Alternatives to hiding in combat include hiding with non-violent creatures in the room ([[shadowling]]s, [[horse]]s, etc) and hiding in the same room as an NPC such as the Journeyman outside the [[Ranger]]'s guild in [[The Crossing]].

When training hiding in combat you will find it easier to slip into hiding with creatures that are not facing you. Once a creature begins to engage you the difficulty in hiding will raise the closer the creature gets to you.

While once true that only [[:Category:Survival Skillset|survival]] prime guilds had a reasonable chance at hiding at melee with a creature, this has now been opened to all guilds again. Non survival prime guilds no longer have an extra punishing hiding requirement to make this attempt.

There are various combat maneuvers that can be attempted which will also help in the training of hiding. These maneuvers include [[snipe]], [[ambush]] and [[poach]]. Each creature has a diminishing return on it which means that after a certain number of successful attempts at hiding you will begin to gain less experience.

====Hide Roundtimes====
{| class="wikitable"
! Effective Ranks
! Roundtime
|-
| 60
| 5 seconds
|-
| 120
| 4 seconds
|-
| 180
| 3 seconds
|-
| 240
| 2 seconds (Survival Primary only)
|}

====Stealth Ranks Required====
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Name
! Location
! Ranks Required to Hide
|-
| journeyman
| Wilds, Pine Needle Path
| 100
|}

====Usable verbs====
Certain commands can be used from hiding that will either not bring you from hiding or produce a different result.
* {{com|appraise}} ''<person>''
* {{com|eat}} ''<person>''

Stealth is also trained by advancing on a critter while in hiding. Their ability to see you (and thus point you out) is based on their {{skill|perception}} vs. your stalking. Significant bonuses are applied to the critter as you get closer during combat.

The STALK command uses your stealth skill to try to follow a target without being seen. This trains the stealth skill, as well.

Stealth skill

2015-05-20T22:51:05Z

SIDMON: /* Stalking */

New [[Skills 3.0|DR 3.0]] [[page type is::skill]] for the combination of the previous skills Hiding and Stalking. Actions which previously trained Hiding or Stalking or were governed by one of these two skills now fall under Stealth instead.

==Hiding & stalking==
The Stealth skill is a measure of how well you can find a hiding place without being noticed, stay hidden, and move while hidden. It is affected by your wounds, [[armor]] type, combat status, and [[Discipline]]. It is contested against [[Perception]].

==Training hiding==
There are various methods to learning hiding. Initially, depending on the type of armor you chose it may be very difficult to learn hiding against creatures you hunt. Alternatives to hiding in combat include hiding with non-violent creatures in the room ([[shadowling]]s, [[horse]]s, etc) and hiding in the same room as an NPC such as the Journeyman outside the [[Ranger]]'s guild in [[The Crossing]].

When training hiding in combat you will find it easier to slip into hiding with creatures that are not facing you. Once a creature begins to engage you the difficulty in hiding will raise the closer the creature gets to you.

While once true that only [[:Category:Survival Skillset|survival]] prime guilds had a reasonable chance at hiding at melee with a creature, this has now been opened to all guilds again. Non survival prime guilds no longer have an extra punishing hiding requirement to make this attempt.

There are various combat maneuvers that can be attempted which will also help in the training of hiding. These maneuvers include [[snipe]], [[ambush]] and [[poach]]. Each creature has a diminishing return on it which means that after a certain number of successful attempts at hiding you will begin to gain less experience.

==Stalking==
The STALK command uses your stealth skill to try to follow a target without being seen. This also teaches the stealth skill.

Stealth is also trained by advancing on a critter while in hiding. Their ability to see you (and thus point you out) is based on their {{skill|perception}} vs. your stalking. Significant bonuses are applied to the critter as you get closer during combat.

Hunt command

2015-05-20T22:47:02Z

SIDMON: /* Hunt and stealth */

{{Incomplete}}
The '''{{tt|hunt}} [[page type is::command]]''' allows discovery of, and movement to, creatures in the areas around you.

==Syntax==
* {{tt|HUNT}}: searches for tracks of nearby creatures/players 
* {{tt|HUNT}} ''<#>'': Where # is the creature you would like to hunt down. Moves you to the numbered creature you found while using {{tt|HUNT}}.

{|
|- valign="top"
|Example Usage:||Using HUNT provides creatures 1,2,3 with creature 1 being a field goblin, 2 being a musk hog, and 3 being Joebob. You would then type 'HUNT 1' to go to the field goblin, 'HUNT 2' for the musk hog, or 'HUNT 3' to go to Joebob.
|}

==Teaching==
Hunt teaches {{skill|scouting}} (only to [[guild association is::Ranger]]s), and {{skill|perception}}, in that order of decreasing amounts. 
There is a separate timer of 75 seconds on learning for each of the two aspects of the {{tt|Hunt}} command. 
Re-using hunt will not reset the timer, but you will not learn. 

There are two factors in the amount of experience granted by {{tt|hunt}}. Both maximum teaching level and amount of experience are determined by the highest level creature that is detected. NPCs and players count as level 0.<ref>[[Post:HUNT question - 1/21/2009 - 15:06:40]]</ref>

Hunt will not teach any Perception unless you have at least 1 rank in it. This is a known issue, and likely will not be changed.

==Distance==
The max number of rooms away in a path (not in total) you can see is dependent on your Survival Skillset Placement (Primary vs Secondary vs Tertiary) and your Perception. For Rangers, Scouting is included, although the formula is not known. For non-Rangers, it appears to just be based on Perception ranks.

The ability to see those in hiding (PCs or NPCs) does have a Perception check against the hidden target's Hiding. Degree of Success will determine if you see a name, just something in hiding, or no indication at all.

*Rangers max 6 rooms away.
*Survival primes max 5 rooms away.
** 2 rooms away at 0 Perception
** 3 rooms away at <99 Perception
** 4 rooms away at <254, >211 Perception
** 5 rooms away at ?? Perception
*Survival secondaries max 4 rooms away.
** 2 rooms away at 0 Perception
** 3 rooms away at 150 Perception
** 4 rooms away at >230 Perception
*Survival tertiaries max 3 rooms away.
** 2 rooms away at 0 Perception
** 3 rooms away at 200 Perception

==Hunt and stealth==
{{tt|Hunt}}ing a creature while hidden will move you to that area, and attempt to hide in the new area, teaching {{skill|Stealth}}. If an attempt is made while in [[invisibility]], the invisbility fails and an attempt is made to hide in the new area.
