[QUOTE="figmike, post: 3610696, member: 52877"] [sblock=Velmont] A couple of things to think about. The Heptagram and Shameful Graduation There are at any one time around 80 students enrolled at the Heptagram. It is in many ways the main secondary school of Sorcery, and as such the only unexalted people there would most likely be very accomplished mortal thaumaturges who are there to teach (adjunct, not full time teachers) young Exalts about magic theory. I have no problems at all with him attending a less prestigious school of sorcery (of which you would have to make up a name as none have been given), but the Heptagram is the best of the best. It would make more sense to me if your family, with hopes that some day you will be a sorcerer got you a private tutor. Then everything that happened in the post is the same, just not the location. That, or if the post was in reference to your primary school, which would cover ages 9-14, in which during your last year or so, you were pressuring teachers to learn magic. (this information comes from the White Treatise, the Blessed Isle, and the Dragon Blooded book.) The First Wyld Hunt: The Wyld Hunt is the militant arm of the Immaculate Order, however, mortal help does exist. Mortal members of the Wyld Hunt tend to be from the imperial legions and from the All Seeing Eye. In fact, for you the All Seeing Eye might be the best idea. They seek out and train many savants, mainly diviners and astronomer. Low to middle rank member of the Eye often go on the hunts to make certain the proper person is hunted down. (this information comes from the Cult of the Illuminated book) Exaltation of Shark into you: I’m not sure if that’s how it works. I always thought it takes years for the soul to travel to its next vessel, and to be honest, I was under the impression that you are born with the exalted soul in you. That’s the only way it would make sense to me that someone could track a solar down before they exalted during the Hunt. And why a mortal Now if you were sent to hunt down a Solar that you believed to be called Shark, unaware that the solar Shark was in fact yourself that sounds alright to me. (this information comes from no where that I know of, just my thoughts) Training by the Dragon: Love it. Perfect. Will have to work out his personality and a few others things, but that’s the type of stuff I’m hoping for. A Twilight trained by some elemental dragon is great. If you can think of a name for him that would be awesome. Also as we start working on his training, do you have the White Treatise book, there is a great run down of the five ordeals in there that will really flesh out his training. If you don’t have it, I’ll post them up here for you to look at. I know some of this is a little nit picky, just trying to keep it as solidly grounded in the “in-game realty” as possible. I just noticed all the other posts, will reply to them in a little bit.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
