| The party defeat their mindless clones and capture the Magisterium sorcerer, who cutoff by the mystic ward around the city, is lacking the self confidence of most magisterium mages. All is not well as Vulstragorn, infected with the Draconic taint that once resided within Rowan, begins to lose control of his physical form, melting into tidal wave of jade flesh. As the sewer collapses Rowan calls upon his miraculous power and in a way he cannot pin down is able to halt on onslaught of Draconic energy within Vulstragorn, who is able to reform his cubic shape...albeit now as a 100m long cube of greenish flesh crushing part of the docks district. | The party defeat their mindless clones and capture the Magisterium sorcerer, who cutoff by the mystic ward around the city, is lacking the self confidence of most magisterium mages.

Chiara Walker is delighted that finally they have captured one of the crimson mages alive...until the symbol on the man's head begins to burn as Carl and Rowan feel an arcane presence of immense puissance attempt to breach Acryn's wards. The sorcerer is kept alive by Vincent's healing as the party rush to the college and insert the Mage into the Probulator. | + | The party are arrested for yet another major magical crime in the city but place the blame squarely on the Magisterium.

| With the help of several faculty members Carl and Rowan weave a ritual to break the mystic connection linking the mage's mark to the powerful external presence. At the climax of the ritual, for a moment, reality is torn asunder and across countless leagues the party see a four armed figure upon a throne that burns with vast amounts of raw mana. For an instant it regards the party with a look of boundless arrogance and then the connection is severed. | With the help of several faculty members Carl and Rowan weave a ritual to break the mystic connection linking the mage's mark to the powerful external presence.

| - | Chiara takes the Magisterium Mage for questioning and thanks the party for recovering the first living source the city has obtained on the Mysterious group of wizard supremacists. Prof. Black rewards them for "safely" recovering Vulstragorn and helpfully probulates Rowan to tell him just how doomed he is. Vincent and Alastair are thanked for recovering the blessed Shrine and Alastair is pointed toward Captain Hopkins the recently appointed commander of Acryn's special top-secret military squad set up to deal with arcane threats (Thaumatergic Endangerment and Magical Peril Limitation Attack Rangers). | + | Chiara takes the Magisterium Mage for questioning and thanks the party for recovering the first living source the city has obtained on the Mysterious group of wizard supremacists.

| Over the next few weeks the talk of the city is the ornate green cube that now dominates the city southern skyline. Many citizens of the city are expressing increasing displeasure with the actions of the cities mages and several students of both colleges are beaten outside taverns by gangs of youths. | Over the next few weeks the talk of the city is the ornate green cube that now dominates the city southern skyline.

| + | **Everyone** - 75 Acra from the college + 75 Acra from the City.\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Everyone** - Meat puppets; mindless clones of themselves, will stay alive as long as they are fed but without further magic are insensate. \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Carl** - The Grimoire of Vulstragorn - details his research on 'draconic spaces' and allows Carl to use +1 protomana in crazy draconic realities.\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===Wibble=== | ||
| + | **Alastair/Rowan** - Having been brought back from the brink of death by Rowan the two are now linked by powerful wounding magics. Alastair cannot die while Rowan lives. Should Alastair ever bleed out he will find his wounds magically cured and take a heal 1, this will permanently decrease Rowan's body hits by 1. They will always be able to sense when each other are close.\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Alastair** - may have ceased aging after drinking the mysterious potion from the Cube...only time will tell. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Rowan** - is purged of his draconic taint, passing this into Vulstragorn's cube. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Rowan** - animates his meat puppet ritually, inserting his heart into his clone. There are now two Rowan Darrishes; either (but not both) may go adventures and GMs are free to have the other Rowan go off and do do Darrishesque things during larps. Rowan may also take the Favour Transcending Death Epic tree to represent one of the two copies surviving, or being rescued by his own clone. | ||
