What magic(s) will you be teaching?

         Alchemy

Describe this magic or a creature as a whole:

Alchemy is the act of utilizing the reagents in an object to create into various potions, salves, and pastes. There are currently, at the time of writing five signs that exist in Alchemy which can be used for creating certain alchemical items. These are listed as follows: 

• Earth
• Water
• Air
• Fire
• Aether

Additionally, an alchemist may alternatively extract reagents by using the Mundane Method if for any reason they do not wish for a reagent to have a specific sign, which is the same process as Aether Processing but without using an aurum pestle or laddle. 

Following reagents there are things called symbols, which have more specific properties. A symbol may belong to more than sign, an example of this being how King's Ivy's symbols can be processed with either the Fire or Air Methods and still have a sign. Symbols can be combined with a base to create various alchemical applications. A few examples of symbols are as follows:

• Order
• Connection
• Peace
• Coldness
• Heat
• Rage
• Blindness

There exist three tiers in alchemy, during with a student will gradually learn how to identity signs and symbols until eventually being able to make alchemical potions, first with aid, and then later on their own. 

Are there different sections or subsections of magic? Can those be elaborated upon?

Currently, there are 32 subsections or additions to Alchemy. If I listed them all this TA Application would be much more longer than necessary. But examples would be Confectionary Alchemy, Adunic Alchemy, Alteration Alchemy, or the Lector Alchemy Packs. There is also something called 'Further Alchemy', which requires more than just an FA Application in basic Alchemy. Examples of Further Alchemy would be Tawkins, Smoggers, or Animati Crafting. To learn Further Alchemy a person must also be T3 in base Alchemy.

Can you give an example of a casting emote, of a spell of your choice?

Flashpowder

Ellie went and cleaned off her table before placing a bowl onto the counter. There is no base for this potion, but the symbols required are:

• 2x Light
• 1x Chaos
• 1x Death

Ellie quickly went to go grab her symbols, which were already extracted beforehand by the Mundane Method, which is shredding an herb, grinding it in a mortar and pestle, being coated with Aqua Vitae, and then being boiled off till only powder remains. Quickly she adds the Chaos and Death symbols into the bowl and takes out a spoon, beginning to mix the symbols together until they are homogenized into a powder. Then, she remembers to take out another bowl, and fill it a little bit with water, adding in the Light symbol, putting in the created powder and a tiny bit of red dye. The dyes are purely optional and are not required. 

Then she pours the creation into a vial and corks it, ready to be used whenever the time comes for it.

Can you give an example of a teaching-emote (interacting with another) of a spell of your choice?

Ellie slowly turned her head up as she heard the door creak, letting out a faint smile as she saw [Insert Name Here] walk into the room. "Oh? Hello again, anyway.." Ellie said pausing, staring down at the table for a second. "So we've already begun to learn the Alchemical Symbols and Signs and how to identify a few, yes?" Ellie said, already knowing the answer. "Come sit down."

As [Insert Name Here] sat down across from her Ellie went and put a burner onto the table, turning it on. "I'm going to show you the Fire Method today." Ellie said, putting an herb onto the table. "So, what you are going to do-" Ellie said, turning on the burner. "You are going to hold it over the burner until that herb dries out, it's already pretty dry to begin with so it will be pretty quick, just make sure not to burn yourself." Ellie stated, as [Insert Name Here] began to do what they were ordered. 

As soon as the herb was dried enough, Ellie put a mortar and pestle on the table. "Good, now put the dried reagent into the mortar and start grinding it till it's powder, tell me when you're done." Ellie said, before staring at the wall and blanking off till their student speaks back to her, showing the reagent nothing more but a fine powder. "Good, good!" Ellie said, taking out a match. "Then we light it, till it burns off into nothing but ash, then I'll give you a magnifying glass and some tweezers to pluck the symbols out."

Say your student powergames during or after teaching, how do you reprimand that?

I would immediately talk to them upon hearing word of it. If it was unintentional and they didn't mean any harm I'd instruct them the best way to avoid that happening again. If it was intentional though, or done in bad faith, I would forward it towards an ST Member.

I literally see no reason on why anyone would have a problem with putting this in the server.

Bags having tiers through for how much can be stored will be good.

to limit meme rp, even with CA alot of people that play ologs and kha's do, just imagine how bad it'll be if it was not locked behind a CA

 

then punish those who do bad instead of punishing an entire community

Unneeded green-tag barriers and tape, free the Musin, because following the same logic, Halflings should be a CA race too.

Hell yeah - adding a scent to aura would impart an even greater sense of personality to spellcasting. Perhaps it could also be affected by the type of magic used. E.G Blood magic smelling like, well, blood along with whatever the mage's own aura scent is, and maybe Voidal Magic causing the scent to be almost too strong, a hint that it isn't natural.

ST does give some room for aesthetics, but it's a shame it doesn't extend to scents, especially for aura.

I have read over corc lore and cannot find what "weaklings" you talk about. So please send it to me over discord DMs if I missed something.

You are the weakling, mortal, I down raw cloves of garlic, grind them to paste with my molars and swallow them whole. The stench of pure natural garlic filling my nostrils is perhaps the best feeling one can have, a euphoria and a high off of kitchen-spice. My love for garlic succeeds all else, those who cannot down the ginger-onion liquor are the ones weak. I eat garlic cloves like an apple, like a pear or a sweet fruit.

Additionally, if you truly cared about originality, you'd obviously have a problem with the siliti clans being pretty obviously inspired by vampire: the masquerade, but that part of the lore worked fine and dandy.

I don't read siliti lore, and I don't know what a clan is, all I do is violently oppose the garlic-haters. But I shall concede this battle.

Just now, KKgame1 said:

1. in real life, garlic has a very strong smell

 

2. Vampires having a weakness to garlic have been included in vampire stories for god knows how long, I wanted to at least represent this in a minor way.

Yes, garlic does have a very strong smell, but that is smell, not hearing. Besides, garlic is already repulsive to the weaklings.

If we were basing Corcurita's off of real life Romanian Folklore they likely would have already included the garlic issue, and along with a stake to the heart and silver. The more you base Vampyres in LOTC off of IRL Folklore the less original it gets. 

What's the deal with the garlic?

no, not at all. Think about Veletz in the Veletz + allies v Coaltion war. They lost every warclaim (but 1), however  they were certainly beating the nations in morale both IRP and OOC, and also were beating them in every single raid. If that type of RP held any effect, the war would've surely turned out differently.

 

But unfortunately banditting, and ambushes hold 0 advantage as you can simply see name tags, and if that doesnt happen, someone will just see it as a metarally or an annoying encounter, /d20, and ignore that it ever happened.

 

Only way this would work would be with consenting parties, and only time I seen it work was between two communities that were rivals IRP, but chill with eachother OOC.

Would they be mailed?

I love you carp

Add Pointed Dripstone to the Blockexchange for Stone, there's no way to get it without dumping a 100 Mina Starting Cost just to get a LC Region. I am not dumping 100 Minae and then more just for 12 Pointed Dripstone.
