That said, if all you'd like to gain from it is a magus/house that thrives on strategy, and given MummyKitty's taking to the idea of a military Architect, perhaps it is best to simply change House.Not a problem. There are plenty of other magi in Fenghled, the tribunal, and the Order.Yes... that could work... a lineage from air-faeries, I think. The Weak Spontanous Magic is a little weird in this constellation. Magical Animal Companion can be a Faerie. Irencillia, the Domus Magna of Merinitia, is in this Tribunal and you may have come from there (perhaps through some deal with Fengheld). It also fits the Magical Animal Companion virtue, as nearly all Irencillia magi have it. Some possible Merinitia magi from there:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Archmage Vinaria, former Prima, Elder Gild member, and a great mistress of Merinitia mysteries. She has just recently returned for what was considered her Final Twilight, so some reckoning of how you have just finished your apprenticship is in order. Like Daria, Hermetic Prestige is possible but not required.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Iacov, Elder Gild formal leader (though in practice his parens, Handri, leads it as well as the House). He is a Mentem specialist, and is keenly interesting in supporting pagan traditions though far too careful to do anything about it - that you know; he is very secretive.</li> </ul>There are other Merinitia in the tribunal and Order, of course, and you need not be from Fengheld or Irencillia. Some ideas:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Yselt, an ice-distorted faerie-blooded maga from a covenant on an icy mountaintop (or perhaps the far north), she is slowly transforming into the inhabitant's last ruler - the Ice Queen. Some suspect she has already slipped into Final Twilight and has become a creature of faerie.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Charlotte, a skinchanger (goose) that can fly into arcadia as easily as into the nearby valley. She should have contacts and dealings with faeries of the air.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Olga Deiaslavl, a Slavic maga (perhaps from Novgorod) that stresses faerie politics and is steeped in Merinitia mysteries. She has many Faerie allies, and is in turn their ally.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Basyl Karrimichi, a light-hearted prankster afflicted with disturbing Visions. Lately, he has been troubled with visions portaining the "coming of Hermes", or "the end of the Order", or something. You coming to Teneo is part of that.</li> </ul>Again, these lists are just ideas. Use or discard at your whim.That's Ok. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />[/sblock]WolfBoy[sblock]I don't mind having a small pack of wolves running around the place. If you feel he is stepping on someone toes, however, I'm open to further ideas.Tying him to Tremere means tying him to another PC, and I like that.You don't get a +6 on various Perception rolls. In virtually every case you'll roll just one Ability, the others just won't be applicable.[/sblock]</blockquote>
