| The Apothecary's Desk Reference by Fetoau It is the author's expectation that thou art reading this to familiarize thyself with the effects of various potions based on their color. The first part of this work will discuss such aspects, with the remaining pages covering the materials and steps required to make such alchemal creations. Definitions: Black potion: Drinking this will render the individual invisible for several minutes. Blue potion: This mixture will allow the imbiber to breathe underwater for a limited time. Orange potion: This potion will restore some of the mana used during spell casting. Purple potion: This concoction will provide magical protection for several minutes of hard fighting. White potion: This powerful potion will create a short-lived shield of fire. Yellow potion: This concoction will give healing aid to the imbiber's wounds. WARNING: Green potion: This potion is a dangerous toxin, and will poison the imbiber, possibly killing the individual. Red potion: This fabulous drink will cure most poisons, including those acquired from the swamps and that gained from drinking a GREEN potion. |

| Despise Guard Journal This post is so dull. Tyson and I got these jobs together, but he gets to stay in the castle! My time is worth too much to sit around here staring at rats. Why don't they get one of those people from Paws to do this? Now one of my keys is missing. Those blasted rats must have knocked it off the table again. They usually don't take it too far, so I'll just find it tomorrow. It's getting late, and Dara should have a tankard of ale waiting for me |
105: The Bard's Guide to Counterpoint
| The Bard's Guide to Counterpoint by Kenneth A facinating tome covering the intricasies of melodic counterpoint. |
| Spells for the Beginner Everyone wants to learn to cast spells. Not all spells are for the beginner, however. Some spells are simple, and do not require any mana points to use, like ignite, douse, or stone. But these spells, while handy, are not the ones that will really impress a date. Most everyone in Britannia has already seen the douse spell, or the gust spell. The real way to attract attention is to find the higher level spells! Once you've gained the skill and the mana to use it, you'll be casting lightning storms and summoning demons with the best of them. The higher the level of a spell, the more mana it will consume, so be careful not to try too hard to impress people with your magical abilities. There are tales of a mage named Haertes who was summoning reagents, then cast a charm spell to secure the attractions of a young lady, and was then promptly eaten by a nearby dragon because he had no mana left to fight back. His attempted tryst was unsuccessful, to say the least. Be sure that this doesn't happen to you, and watch your mana closely! |
| Day 1 I've been hired to keep Stonegate tidy, which is fine, but I really don't know about that ghost hanging around. He seems like a nice enough person, and he tries to be helpful, but it's just so strange to look at him and see through him. I saw some dirt on the floor through him the other day and I before I had time to think about it, I had walked right through him. Ever since then, he only appears as a disembodied voice. I don't think he liked having been walked through. Day 2 This place is so hard to keep clean! First, the rats chewed through the harpsichord bench, and then all the earthquakes and shudders came, and started knocking bricks loose. Every time I get a brick put back into place, the Tower shudders again and they fall right back out! I'm not being paid enough for this. Day 3 It's no wonder things have been shaking in here. I've just heard from my sister that there's been huge disruptions going on outside. She told me that her dog Kala was sleeping in the garden in front of her house, and some kind of tall red monstrosity came right up out of the ground right in the middle of her garden, and now her dog is stuck on top of it! My sister's pretty upset, so I'd better go try to help get her dog down. I should probably turn on the Tower defenses before I leave, or Hawkwind might be unhappy with me. What do ghosts do when they're unhappy? I'm not sure, but I don't want to find out. |
| Journal of Tristan, King of Thieves Day 1 Found an excellent vantage point from which to spy on the entrance to Britain. Makes our bandit raids that much easier. ... Day 4 The raids go better than expected. At this rate, I'll be the most notorious thief in the history of Britannia in no time. ... Day 6 Had to kill Julian today. He got a little too clever and greedy for his own good. Can't have him undermining my authority. Too bad, he was a talented cutpurse. ... Day 10 Our purses are getting fat! I need to find a good hiding place for our loot. I think I'll do some exploring tomorrow. ... Day 11 Found a perfect place! There is a cave hidden in the lake above the waterfall. Even better, the only way to get to that lake is through a long tunnel inhabited by wolves (I had to kill one myself just to get down there). Across the bridge is a path leading up into a snowy valley where the tunnel entrance can be found. I'll have to check and see if I can find any good landmarks. ... Day 13 There's a farmhouse just below the bridge. The family there can see us too easily as we traverse across it. Time to go on a little raid to take care of that problem. |
| Shamino's Journal Avatar, I know that you are journeying even now to save Britannia. I am about to embark on a spiritual journey to see if I may fathom what exactly the nature of our enemy is. This journey is a dangerous one, for it entails the separation of my spiritual self from my physical self. If something were to disrupt the delicate balance between these two selves, I might be unable to return. If this is the case, then you, my friend, must help me. For the ritual you must have the Bell of Courage, the Book of Truth, and the Candle of Love. Only with these things will you be able to connect my two selves again. Before the ritual can be complete you must remove the sacred fire that I have summoned to protect me. You must light the braziers in this chamber in order to release the barrier. It is then, and only then that you will be able to complete the summoning ritual. After you have removed the barrier, place the Bell, the Book, and the Candle on their correct stands. Use each of them, and recite the mantra of spirituality. This will complete the ritual. Please hurry Avatar, Our time is very short... |
| I tried to escape her, but I only managed to get
myself lost in this enormous dungeon.. I had managed to find some food by scrounging
through the pockets of the deceased but I am running out of time as well as food. The
wyrmguard had spotted me and are after me. There aren't many places left to hide. I do not know how much longer I can survive in this horrid place. I can hear the screams of the tortured and the smell of death grows stronger each day. I can only pray my beloved Adreanna is alright.. Faithfully, Darim Kensington |
| Book of Justice 'BEH' is the mantra that unlocks the power of Justice. To find the Symbol of Justice, one must find a being who is pure and knows none of the petty prejudices that affect men. Such a being has not been seen in Brittania for many, many years, although it is rumored that one such creature was last sighted in the mountains to the northeast of the city of Yew. |
