Since this semester in the mage game is drawing to a close I thought I should explain how I am going to do skill advancement. Each class will give you a number of tests in each skill the harder the class the higher the ob is on the tests and often times the more tests you get for the class. I have added this information in parenthesis next to each class on the Class Roster page. In addition to classes I am guessing all of your characters are spending time outside of class studying so I will give you a total ob of free tests equal to the average of will and perception rounded up. For example lets say Yarrow has a 4 perception and a 3 will he will have a total of 4 ob on tests to spend. This means he can take any number of free tests on any number of skills as long as the total ob of these tests does not exceed 4. You may take tests on skills that you do not know or you are not learning from as long as you run them by me first. There are also a few skills or traits that will give you an additional bonus to the ob you can spend on these free tests: - Reading provides you with a +1 to the ob you can spend
- Research also provides you with a +1 on the ob you can spend
- Bookworm trait will provide you with a +1
In addition to the tests from your classes and your free tests I will be giving out a couple free tests based on things characters have done throughout the semester. - Theros gains a free ob 1 test to sleight of hand for his brief training with Brin
- Theros also gains a free ob 1 test to Aura Reading from his training with Brin
- Conrad may gain one free ob 1 test in gathering from his work with Brin
- Burnadette may gain 1 free ob 1 test in Aura Reading from Virgil
- Aryteneus may gain a free test in Gossip-wise from spending time with Imperials
- Burnadette may gain 1 free test to read for yarrow helping her to learn to read.
- Lan and Fletcher may gain one free ob 1 test to read for Lan's attempts to help fletcher to read
- Burnadette, Theros, and Aryteneus may gain one free ob 1 test in either tactics or sword or marital arts for their work with Martin and Ryn
If you have any questions at all on how skill advancement works in Burning Wheel feel free to ask me whenever you get a chance. I am going to say it's your responsibility to figure it out or ask me for help before we get too deep into the mage game again. I would also like a summary of everyone's skill advancement, so I can keep track and approve it. |
