Spells:
[list][*]Nature's Blessing
-> Removes most types of status ailments and debuffs from the target and additionally restores [1d6 ± WIL] HP.
[*]Entangle
-> Forces all enemies to make an [AGI ± VIT] check vs the caster's [DEX ± WIL]. Any targets failing the check are immobilized for [2 ± INT/5] turns and lose their AC dodge bonus for the duration of the effect.
[*]Animate Weapon
-> The target has to be an inanimate object that can be used as a weapon.
The target object is animated, receives the ability to fly and is under control of the caster.
The object is treated as a targetable member of battle with [10 ± INT/2 ± WIL] HP, [INT] AC and [INT ± WIL] Init and has complete immunity to status ailments and debuffs, but cannot be healed.
Offensively, it deals damage equal to [its innate Dmg range ± WIL/2] and has Hit equal to [its innate Hit stat ± INT]. Animated objects cannot perform maneuvers and thus have no MR stat.
The target object remains animated until its HP drop to 0 or it is manually dismissed by the caster. In both cases, the object crumbles to dust and cannot be retrieved.
This is a channeling spell. As long as the target object remains animated, the spellpoint used for this spell cannot be recovered.
[*]Enchant Weapon
-> The target has to be an object that can be used as a weapon. (It can be animated.)
The target object is enchanted with magic, bestowing a [WIL/2] bonus to Dmg and an [INT] bonus to Hit upon it. If desired, it can additionally receive an elemental affinity.
The target object remains enchanted until it is destroyed or the enchantment is manually cancelled.
This is a channeling spell. As long as the target object remains enchanted, the spellpoint used for this spell cannot be recovered.[/list]

Abilities (275/300 AP spent):
[list][*]Dryad's Curse [ Active ] [ 100 AP ]
-> This ability can only be used if the effects of "Wilting Flower" are not currently suppressed by medicine.
Forces all enemies to make a WIL check against Hana's WIL+2.
If they succeed, they are stunned for a turn.
If they fail, they (as well as all of their possessions) are permanently transformed into inanimate plants, thus eliminating them from combat. The type of plant is dependent on the target's characteristics and can be anything from a flower to a tree.
However, using this ability damages Hana's VIT by 5 and causes an immediate VIT check from "Wilting Flower".
Furthermore, this ability has no effect on embodiments of the forest, as well as spirits and other entities without a corporeal form.
[*]Phantasmal Barrier [ Active ] [ 80 AP / use ] [ Not learned ]
-> Grants the target a shield capable of distorting and defying reality, inverting all harmful effects of the next hit taken (damage becomes healing, debuffs become buffs, etc.).
If an effect cannot be converted into something positive, it is instead nullified altogether.
[*]Mirror Veil [ Sustained ] [ 70 AP ]
-> While active, as long as Hana has at least one spellpoint remaining, any projectile-based attack or spell aimed at Hana's party first has to pass a WIL vs. WIL check against Hana. If the attacker fails this check, one of Hana's spellpoints is consumed and the attack is reflected back at the attacker (and their allies, if applicable) with 50% increased potency and an additional +5 bonus to Hit.
This ability is automatically disabled if Hana runs out of spellpoints.
[*]Gift of the Spirits [ Passive ] [ 80 AP ]
-> Hana has the ability to regenerate mana at an unnatural rate while resting.
During combat, as long as Hana has no sustained abilities active, any unused minor action generates 1 Focus Point, while any unused major action generates 2. Every hour passed outside of combat also generates 1 Focus Point, or 2 while camping.
Every set of 5 Focus Points is automatically converted to a spellpoint.
Focus points will not accumulate if Hana isn't actually missing any spellpoints, and Focus Points that would go beyond Hana's spellpoint cap are lost.
[*]Pact of the Spirits [ Passive ] [ 100 AP ]
-> Hana is accompanied by two familiars at all times, which take the form of sentient glowing orbs with transculent wings resembling those of a butterfly, roughly the size of a fist. They're beings of pure magic, sustained by Hana's mana - they cannot leave her vicinity for more than a few minutes at a time, and if she dies, they will disappear.
They do, however, have their own will and reasoning, and although they will try to protect Hana to the best of their abilities, she does not have direct control over them.
The white one, called Lux, will cast supportive magic to bolster the strength and defenses of Hana and her allies, choosing from a variety of buffs and other trickery.
The black one, called Nox, will cast disruptive magic to weaken Hana's foes, trying to inflict a variety of status ailments and debuffs.
Both of them will act independently from Hana - once per turn each - and share her attributes to determine the effectiveness of their spells.
Although these familiars do not require enough mana to actively drain Hana's reserves, they do take up some magical power that she can never tap into, lowering her maximum spell points by 2.
If the maximum spell point reduction from this ability were to somehow drop Hana's maximum spell points to -1 or less, her familiars will disappear and she will lose consciousness until she regains enough maximum spell points to sustain them.
[*]Wilting Flower [ Passive ] [ +75 AP ]
-> Hana suffers from an incurable disease that is slowly eating away at her life.
Its effects can be suppressed with special medicine, but will begin anew as soon as she goes for a full day without.
When not under the effects of the medicine...
- ...she receives one point of attribute damage to a random attribute whenever she takes HP damage.
- ...HP and attribute damage will not regenerate through natural means. (Potions, spells, etc. will still work as normal.)
- ...she periodically (roughly once per day) has to pass a VIT check against a DC of 10; if she fails it, her VIT is damaged by 1d4 and her max HP are affected accordingly. If this drops her VIT to -6 or less, she will additionally pass out for a few hours. If Hana fails three or more of these checks and passes out as a result, she dies.
Taking medicine will reset the number of failed checks, and resting while under the effects of the medicine will allow Hana to recover HP and attribute damage as normal.
Hana (as well as anyone else with basic knowledge of medicine and/or herbs) is capable of making this medicine herself given the right ingredients, a spellpoint and an hour of time.[/list]

The queen tells them to be careful.
Reylos replies, "I'm sure we'll try," and turns away.
(Probably...)

Tabithe declares her designs on the feast.
Reylos hadn't really had any intention of sticking around for the festivities,
but she also hadn't realized how hungry she was.
(Right, I'd probably better eat something..
no sense in skipping out on my new companions just yet,
even if we've got nothing to discuss.)

"Let's check out the food, then. I hear it's the finest in the land."

Reylos ignores the crowd, annoyed by their gossip.

Surveying the meat and vegetables, Reylos gets
some ham and a corn on the cob, and adds a bread roll.
For dessert she gets pie, passing over pumpkin and pecan for sweet potato with pecans.
(There's food from all over, but what I miss when travelling is food from home.)

Tabithe wants to know more about her companions,
at least, that seems to be what she said through her mouthful of food.

Reylos replies.
"I'm just a mercenary from around here, the capital.
There's really not much to tell."
At least, nothing she was going to tell.
She picks up her corn and begins to eat it.

Reylos listens to Hana thoughtfully,
but looks at her food, not Hana.
(Complicated, huh? There's a story there..)
(Hana did pretty well for herself in that fight,
and combat experience isn't the only thing
needed on an adventure like this.)
(Why would he send strangers? Because he has no trusted generals.
He trusts only himself...)
"Nuts," Reylos mutters while looking at her pie.
(He's nuts..)

(Convenient, hm..)
While Tabithe's speaking, she continues looking ahead,
becoming lost in thought.
(So Tabithe drifted into the tournament,
then after me into the hall.
Hana came here.. seeking fame? That can't be all, but... whatever.)
They didn't have the whole story, no..
Reylos could them what she knew, but why bother?
It wouldn't change their mission.
It'd be a great bother, and why should they believe her anyway?
They had no reason to trust her, but she'd trust them,
as much as she would any comrade.
Whatever Hana's story was, she was a good person.
Tabithe was honest and straightforward,
in whatever direction she found herself drifting.

Finally, she turns to Tabithe and replies, "You're right.
We'll take whatever's thrown at us."

If they succeed, they are stunned for a turn.
If they fail, they (as well as all of their possessions) are permanently transformed into inanimate plants, thus eliminating them from combat. The type of plant is dependent on the target's characteristics and can be anything from a flower to a tree.
However, using this ability damages Hana's VIT by 5 and causes an immediate VIT check from "Wilting Flower".
Furthermore, this ability has no effect on embodiments of the forest, as well as spirits and other entities without a corporeal form.
[*]Phantasmal Barrier [ Active ] [ 80 AP / use ] [ Not learned ]
-> Grants the target a shield capable of distorting and defying reality, inverting all harmful effects of the next hit taken (damage becomes healing, debuffs become buffs, etc.).
If an effect cannot be converted into something positive, it is instead nullified altogether.
[*]Mirror Veil [ Sustained ] [ 70 AP ]
-> While active, as long as Hana has at least one spellpoint remaining, any projectile-based attack or spell aimed at Hana's party first has to pass a WIL vs. WIL check against Hana. If the attacker fails this check, one of Hana's spellpoints is consumed and the attack is reflected back at the attacker (and their allies, if applicable) with 50% increased potency and an additional +5 bonus to Hit.
This ability is automatically disabled if Hana runs out of spellpoints.
[*]Gift of the Spirits [ Passive ] [ 80 AP ]
-> Hana has the ability to regenerate mana at an unnatural rate while resting.
During combat, as long as Hana has no sustained abilities active, any unused minor action generates 1 Focus Point, while any unused major action generates 2. Every hour passed outside of combat also generates 1 Focus Point, or 2 while camping.
Every set of 5 Focus Points is automatically converted to a spellpoint.
Focus points will not accumulate if Hana isn't actually missing any spellpoints, and Focus Points that would go beyond Hana's spellpoint cap are lost.
[*]Pact of the Spirits [ Passive ] [ 100 AP ]
-> Hana is accompanied by two familiars at all times, which take the form of sentient glowing orbs with transculent wings resembling those of a butterfly, roughly the size of a fist. They're beings of pure magic, sustained by Hana's mana - they cannot leave her vicinity for more than a few minutes at a time, and if she dies, they will disappear.
They do, however, have their own will and reasoning, and although they will try to protect Hana to the best of their abilities, she does not have direct control over them.
The white one, called Lux, will cast supportive magic to bolster the strength and defenses of Hana and her allies, choosing from a variety of buffs and other trickery.
The black one, called Nox, will cast disruptive magic to weaken Hana's foes, trying to inflict a variety of status ailments and debuffs.
Both of them will act independently from Hana - once per turn each - and share her attributes to determine the effectiveness of their spells.
Although these familiars do not require enough mana to actively drain Hana's reserves, they do take up some magical power that she can never tap into, lowering her maximum spell points by 2.
If the maximum spell point reduction from this ability were to somehow drop Hana's maximum spell points to -1 or less, her familiars will disappear and she will lose consciousness until she regains enough maximum spell points to sustain them.
[*]Wilting Flower [ Passive ] [ +75 AP ]
-> Hana suffers from an incurable disease that is slowly eating away at her life.
Its effects can be suppressed with special medicine, but will begin anew as soon as she goes for a full day without.
When not under the effects of the medicine...
- ...she receives one point of attribute damage to a random attribute whenever she takes HP damage.
- ...HP and attribute damage will not regenerate through natural means. (Potions, spells, etc. will still work as normal.)
- ...she periodically (roughly once per day) has to pass a VIT check against a DC of 10; if she fails it, her VIT is damaged by 1d4 and her max HP are affected accordingly. If this drops her VIT to -6 or less, she will additionally pass out for a few hours. If Hana fails three or more of these checks and passes out as a result, she dies.
Taking medicine will reset the number of failed checks, and resting while under the effects of the medicine will allow Hana to recover HP and attribute damage as normal.
Hana (as well as anyone else with basic knowledge of medicine and/or herbs) is capable of making this medicine herself given the right ingredients, a spellpoint and an hour of time.[/list]

Reylos gets up as well.
"Right. See you."

(Hana, even if you can't believe in yourself,
others will. You just need more experience.)
She wants to say something reassuring to Hana, but isn't
sure what to say, and therefore says nothing at all.
(Ah, it's fine, anyway..)
Instead she turns to walk away.

Spells:
[list][*]Nature's Blessing
-> Removes most types of status ailments and debuffs from the target and additionally restores [1d6 ± WIL] HP.
[*]Entangle
-> Forces all enemies to make an [AGI ± VIT] check vs the caster's [DEX ± WIL]. Any targets failing the check are immobilized for [2 ± INT/5] turns and lose their AC dodge bonus for the duration of the effect.
[*]Animate Weapon
-> The target has to be an inanimate object that can be used as a weapon.
The target object is animated, receives the ability to fly and is under control of the caster.
The object is treated as a targetable member of battle with [10 ± INT/2 ± WIL] HP, [INT] AC and [INT ± WIL] Init and has complete immunity to status ailments and debuffs, but cannot be healed.
Offensively, it deals damage equal to [its innate Dmg range ± WIL/2] and has Hit equal to [its innate Hit stat ± INT]. Animated objects cannot perform maneuvers and thus have no MR stat.
The target object remains animated until its HP drop to 0 or it is manually dismissed by the caster. In both cases, the object crumbles to dust and cannot be retrieved.
This is a channeling spell. As long as the target object remains animated, the spellpoint used for this spell cannot be recovered.
[*]Enchant Weapon
-> The target has to be an object that can be used as a weapon. (It can be animated.)
The target object is enchanted with magic, bestowing a [WIL/2] bonus to Dmg and an [INT] bonus to Hit upon it. If desired, it can additionally receive an elemental affinity.
The target object remains enchanted until it is destroyed or the enchantment is manually cancelled.
This is a channeling spell. As long as the target object remains enchanted, the spellpoint used for this spell cannot be recovered.[/list]

Abilities (275/300 AP spent):
[list][*]Dryad's Curse [ Active ] [ 100 AP ]
-> This ability can only be used if the effects of "Wilting Flower" are not currently suppressed by medicine.
Forces all enemies to make a WIL check against Hana's WIL+2.
If they succeed, they are stunned for a turn.
If they fail, they (as well as all of their possessions) are permanently transformed into inanimate plants, thus eliminating them from combat. The type of plant is dependent on the target's characteristics and can be anything from a flower to a tree.
However, using this ability damages Hana's VIT by 5 and causes an immediate VIT check from "Wilting Flower".
Furthermore, this ability has no effect on embodiments of the forest, as well as spirits and other entities without a corporeal form.
[*]Phantasmal Barrier [ Active ] [ 80 AP / use ] [ Not learned ]
-> Grants the target a shield capable of distorting and defying reality, inverting all harmful effects of the next hit taken (damage becomes healing, debuffs become buffs, etc.).
If an effect cannot be converted into something positive, it is instead nullified altogether.
[*]Mirror Veil [ Sustained ] [ 70 AP ]
-> While active, as long as Hana has at least one spellpoint remaining, any projectile-based attack or spell aimed at Hana's party first has to pass a WIL vs. WIL check against Hana. If the attacker fails this check, one of Hana's spellpoints is consumed and the attack is reflected back at the attacker (and their allies, if applicable) with 50% increased potency and an additional +5 bonus to Hit.
This ability is automatically disabled if Hana runs out of spellpoints.
[*]Gift of the Spirits [ Passive ] [ 80 AP ]
-> Hana has the ability to regenerate mana at an unnatural rate while resting.
During combat, as long as Hana has no sustained abilities active, any unused minor action generates 1 Focus Point, while any unused major action generates 2. Every hour passed outside of combat also generates 1 Focus Point, or 2 while camping.
Every set of 5 Focus Points is automatically converted to a spellpoint.
Focus points will not accumulate if Hana isn't actually missing any spellpoints, and Focus Points that would go beyond Hana's spellpoint cap are lost.
[*]Pact of the Spirits [ Passive ] [ 100 AP ]
-> Hana is accompanied by two familiars at all times, which take the form of sentient glowing orbs with transculent wings resembling those of a butterfly, roughly the size of a fist. They're beings of pure magic, sustained by Hana's mana - they cannot leave her vicinity for more than a few minutes at a time, and if she dies, they will disappear.
They do, however, have their own will and reasoning, and although they will try to protect Hana to the best of their abilities, she does not have direct control over them.
The white one, called Lux, will cast supportive magic to bolster the strength and defenses of Hana and her allies, choosing from a variety of buffs and other trickery.
The black one, called Nox, will cast disruptive magic to weaken Hana's foes, trying to inflict a variety of status ailments and debuffs.
Both of them will act independently from Hana - once per turn each - and share her attributes to determine the effectiveness of their spells.
Although these familiars do not require enough mana to actively drain Hana's reserves, they do take up some magical power that she can never tap into, lowering her maximum spell points by 2.
If the maximum spell point reduction from this ability were to somehow drop Hana's maximum spell points to -1 or less, her familiars will disappear and she will lose consciousness until she regains enough maximum spell points to sustain them.

- ...HP and attribute damage will not regenerate through natural means. (Potions, spells, etc. will still work as normal.)
- ...she periodically (roughly once per day) has to pass a VIT check against a DC of 10; if she fails it, her VIT is damaged by 1d4 and her max HP are affected accordingly.

Reylos walks out of the castle,
and sets off toward the inn.
She notices a dark-robed group following her,
takes a detour and waits until they're alone
to turn around and ask:
"Why did you follow me?"

"We wanted to know if you had any news."
"What news? You heard about the quest, didn't you?"
"You're really going to go, Somath?"
"Of course. It's hardly different from what I usually do."
(Well, maybe a bit.)

"What about those demons? Do you know who summoned them?"
She shakes her head. "..I couldn't tell you."

"...Is that all you wanted?
I'll try to keep in touch, if I have anything to report..."
(..it just might be more difficult than usual.)

She turns away.
"Take care, then."
She wished people would stop telling her that.


In the inn, Reylos goes to the innkeeper and cancels her room,
as she won't be needing it anymore.
The inn is rather crowded tonight,
and she quickly escapes those who wish to detain her,
asking if she's one'a them who got sent on that quest.

Then she heads back to the castle
and is shown to her room.

She stares out the window, grateful to have a window.
It's late, and she should sleep.
Whichever direction they headed tomorrow, it'd be a long day.
