Talk:Torkel Failed Apprentice

I finally got around to entering Torkel into Metacreator and I found a couple of issues.

First, I had retroactively changed some of Torkel's activities so he only has 2 seasons of Exposure to Teaching, not 3, in 1191-1192.

ALM - thanks.

His apprenticeship XP seems overspent by 5 points. Suggest dropping either Finesse or Penetration because you can't really use it.

ALM - I don't know what to say other then Metacreator is wrong.

0-4 Childhood 45xp

5-10 Youth 90xp

11-12 Travel 30xp

13-28 Apprenticeship + 1 year captivity 240xp

 Magic Theory (creating items) 4 - 50xp
 Athletics (flight) 4 - +20xp
 Faerie Lore 3 - 30xp
 Ancient Britain 2 - 15xp
 Hunt 2 - 15xp
 Charm 2 - 15xp 
 Ettiquette 2 - 15xp
 Intrigue 2 - 15xp
 Ledgerdemain 2 - 15xp
 Magic Lore 1 - 5xp
 Infernal Lore 1 - 5xp
 Finesse 1 - 5xp
 Penetration 1 - 5xp
 Concentration 1 - 5xp
 Code of Hermes 1 - 5xp
 Artes Liberalis 1 - 5xp
 Carouse 1 - 5xp
 Sew 1 - 5xp
 Leadership 1 - 5xp (Failed Gauntlet)

ALM - This is not the first time I've disagreed with Metacreator. I'd understand a difference of 15xp but not 5xp, as I have childhood going from 0 to 4 while some people could start counting at 1 which would account for a 15xp difference.

AG - OK, I see where you are coming from. You've explained your point of view pretty clearly and I can't point to a flaw in it. Torkel's apprenticeship XP stands.

XP in Great Weapon is too high. Junior grants 9xp per season, not 11. This is probably a mistake on my part.

ALM - no problem.

AG - Thanks

It would really help if you could add future seasons & adventures one at a time instead of lumping them together.

ALM - I'll fix that up.

AG - Thanks, no need to redo anything, just please keep it in mind going forward.

In Spring 1193, Torkel taught Agenes so he gains more exposure XP in Teaching.

ALM - I'll note that.
