"I am safe wearing this ... from the Orrey ... the rest of you on the other hand ... Not so safe. And the Orrey is complex enough that I will need a good long amount of time to get my head around it." As he says this he is already rustling through his pack and bringing out the notes he made during the lecture at the silvery pools. "Now if I recall correctly the pertinent lecture centred around adjusting lenses which is what the this plaque talks about." With that the wizard buries his nose in the papers. When he finds the part that aligns with an explanation of what is written on the plaque he casts Identify on the Orrey and begins walking around looking for the parts of the machine identified on the plaque. Once located he uses his notes to gain an understanding of how to adjust the lenses correctly and realign them so the machine goes back to its normal working order. The wizard seems suddenly completely absorbed in the task and does not seem to consider any other alternative than remain where he is studying the machine until he understands properly what it is he is seeing. [sblock=OOC] Ouch ... 4 hours. Okay, well Relic is pretty stubborn when he gets something into his head, so he's not going to budge. If everyone backs off to a safe distance he'll be spider meat. But Neutralise Poison has him immune to the poison during that time at least. Hmm ... Spellcraft +16 +10 (Identify) +5 (amulet) = +31 spell craft. Hehe, I'm hoping that will be enough to understand the machine! Taking 20 seems a bit unnecessary. How long will it take if I just roll? Surely +31 must be enough to succeed on anything except a crit fail. Aww heck, I'm just going to roll.<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3915193/" target="_blank">Spellcraft 43</a>[/sblock]</blockquote>
