Volkmar reports to the magi After he finishes his scrutiny of the markings, Volkmar approaches the magi. In the light of day, his armaments are far easier to discern. He still wears his chain armor, mostly hidden beneath his outer robes, and the haft of his greatsword stil rises off his back...

The designs are for a completed covenant, so I do not anticipate us reaching that point anytime soon... or even, perhaps, before Tribunal. My goal is to get an idea for what we want to achieve, and then we can determine how best to strive for it (and I can make new maps to show the current...

I think the parameters of the spell are correct for the size of the structure I designed, though I am at a loss as to how you derived the number 54,000 cubic feet. I assume a pace to equate to about 3 feet. What assumption did you use? By my calculations, the volume of the structure (if the...

Volkmar & Lukas Throughout the morning, Volkmar has been focused on organizing the upcoming expedition. After choosing the grogs and covenfolk that will embark upon the mission, he saw to the provisioning of food and supplies, and then performed a cursory examination of weapons and armor...

Valeria presents her proposed Charter After Valeria finishes speaking, she reaches for an elegantly-crafted silver scroll case which dangles from her girdle. Uncapping the case, she removes several sheets of parchment and, still rolled, holds them aloft before the assembled magi. "I have...

No sense beating around the bush. I've gone ahead and had Valeria submit her proposal for the charter in the IC thread.

Volkmar Update Yair, the Volkmar you have posted is the older version, not the last (updated) one I sent you.

Valeria speaks: "Though I agree with the underlying intent of your words, Gorgamesh, and, in principle, strive for just such a stucture for the governance of our covenant, I feel that you view the matter too simply." "It is all fine and well that the leader be expected to consult the Council...

Charter Ideas I am including a writeup for a potential charter which covers most areas of contention that I can think of - but I am sure there are others I haven't thought of - and should make a good starting point - or sounding board, in the least - for our IC discussions. Though I may...

Actually, my titles for the attachment may be leading to the confusion... the images are for the entire underground portion of the covenant, not an individual magu's sanctum. The four "living quarters" are the individual sanctums of the magi, which I have designed in a three-room manner, so that...

"If this Instantus were merely to pay us a brief visit and then be on his way, then yes, we could extend the same courtesy and hospitality toward him that we would extend toward any other person of status who visits us," Valeria says, "but Stentorius's letter clearly indicates he is coming as a...

Sanctum Here is my concept for the subterranean sanctums.

I did some conversions based on the existing illustration, and the inner circle is currently about 6m, which puts the covenant at approximately 60m × 90m. If that is two spacious, it can be altered a bit. The immediate effect of any reduction in dimension would be that the walls might have to...

Thanks guys. Right now, the central "tower" is the primary area for the magi (library, council room, etc.), though lab and sanctums will have to be in one of the large wings just for the amount of space required. As for the "tower", there is a lot of room for play in its design. With little to...

Have fun with him. Lukas has, however, been assigned to the expedition (see Volkmar's previous postings on the arrangements). His tracking and wilderness skills are too valuable to leave him sitting in the covenant. Since you have chosen to play Lukas exclusively, please review his character...

Covenant Concept I have taken some of the ideas we threw around regarding the covenant proper and drafted up a couple concept illustrations. Let me know what you think, or if there are any particular features that you would like to see added. I figure initially our sanctums and labs will be...
