Covenant Service
Some things that could be done by the magi as covenant service:
- Transcription of spells for the library - particularly level 25 or higher spells for trade with Grimsby.
- Books on arts: we have works on all the Techniques except Muto. We have nothing on Aquam, Auram, Ignem, or Vim, and are weak in most other Forms (with the exclusion of Herbam, where we are fairly strong, but of low quality). LQ0s or Summae 5s and above are really the starting point.
- Commentaries. We have several good quality summae which could benefit from commentaries; these should be highly tradebale.
- Mundane books: Magic Theory would be benficial to all.
- Magic items: we need a magic plough, an axe of felling to clear some of the forest, and things which will boost our economic output. If we could make an item to process woad without the hard work or the smell, the grogs would love us. Maybe Jock could put his rock-liquifier into an item...?
- Inventing a mid-level spell (3rd magnitude and above) allowing us to see through illusions of disguise, or one revealing shapeshifters.
- Investigating magical places? Maybe check out some of the local barrows? Or find out where the Faerie Road actually goes to?
- Investigation around the covenant - the tower, the standing stones / dog-catchers.
- Extracting vis from the aura. Boring, but necessary.
