Data Collection

Moon Mage with 300 PM 340 PP 300 MD 260 Astrology skill 210 ]concentration makes a guide for Taniendar (Haven) to Marendin (Shard). The guide has 2 sanity protection (Xibar), 1 force (Yavash), 0 speed (Katamba)

Guide is "The gestalt mind is sane and will maintain its sanity under any stress. It reacts to its environment at a modest pace and can manipulate its environment only with exhaustive effort."

The Yavash mind for force may have been an angry mind, however. (mood states seem to matter, happier the better).

This guide allowed an empath with 230 concentration to BARELY travel between both shards, losing 20 concentration per room until the last room, losing 30 concentration.

Verbs

Niaura, guides themselves don't have those verbs. Have you actually tested them? Reene 16:40, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
You're right. Created a new page for Cradle of Moons and moved that info over there. Thanks.

Catalyzing

Anecdotlly, difficulty of the sigils scribed for catalyzing do seem to matter. 2 Ismelda sigils catalyzed the Astral guide.

Alternating between Sun and Yavash sigils, until finally at night time twice Estrilda, once Triquetra, once Heron, and maybe about 2 more high level sigils took about 20~30 scribes.

However, using Welkin, Shrike, and Penhetia completed the guide with only a total of 3 scribes.
