Magi and companion's seasonal activities are usually recorded on the forum, but that's not a strict requirement.

User:AndrewG keeps electronic copies of the grogs and several NPCs using Metacreator. We share these via a dropbox account. Most characters also have a PDF character sheet uploaded and attached to their page.

Important Links

Stranggore Library and Stranggore Grimoire are handy pages for updating magi.

We use the forum for tracking characters' seasonal activities. Very often there is some interplay among the grogs' seasonal activities, and magi also have to watch out for contention over books.

Remember to check the page of loose ends from time to time when planning seasonal activities, especially for magi.

See Category:Stranggore Grogs for a list of who handles seasons for which grog.

Specialists

The covenant's specialists may be occasionally called upon for special projects.

  • Paul is the covenant's librarian and scribe.
  • Eustace is a stonemason.
  • Angus is a weapons teacher. He is also an amateur carpenter, but his skill level is not high enough for him to lead major projects.

Teachers

  • Valera teaches Latin and Academic Abilities
  • Angus teaches Martial Abilities

Seasonal Routine

Except when notable events intervene, life at the covenant conforms to the following routine:

Season Grogs Magi Notable Events
Spring Working (except Angus, who is free) Collect 1 pawn of vis if they forage Shrovetide football game against Shepton Mallet (since 1202)
St. George's Day, traditional grogs' feast
Summer Free (except Angus, who is usually a trainer) -
Autumn Working (except Angus, who is free Collect 1 pawn of vis if they forage and possibly another as a player participation incentive
Winter Free (except Angus, who is working)
donate a lock of hair to the covenant
Renew the Oath of Stranggore and collect 2 Rego vis Host Imbolc Feast
Cast Aegis of the Hearth

Aging & Wound Recovery

The Living Conditions modifier at Stranggore is +1 for magi and companions, +0 for grogs and covenfolk.

Merewen is willing to make Longevity Rituals for covenant members. She charges the very modest fee of three pawns of vis plus the cost of materials.

Vis Sources

Season Source Yield Notes
Spring Foraging 1-2 pawns per magus Player's choice of Art
Summer Magic pear tree 2 Muto Goes to covenant stores
Summer Moss from milestones on Fosse Way 6 Vim Used for covenant's Aegis of the Hearth
Autumn Magic pear tree 2 Muto Goes to covenant stores
Autumn Foraging 1-2 pawns per magus Player's choice of Art
Winter Oath blood 2 Rego per magus

Vis Stocks

The covenant has stocks of vis that can be used for covenant projects by majority vote of the Council, or in emergency by any magus.

Magi are allowed to exchange their vis with the covenant for another Art, subject to two limitations:

  1. They trade Technique for Technique or Form for Form.
  2. Trades may not deplete the covenant stores below 10 pawns in Creo, Rego, Corpus, or Vim.
