"Good afternoon -- did you have an appointment? No? Ah, don't worry about that -- I have a minute or two to spare. My name is Bailey Renico, current head of Lux University... Though, I'm sure you knew that already by the time you came to my door. Seeking out knowledge as you are is a noble goal indeed; there's no end to the marvels that the world has to offer. The university provides a number of resources to the public, including educational tomes and a network of mentors. Come, I'll show you where you can start."

01. Your character can spend the time to learn an elemental technique listed in the complete scroll of scrolls.
[break][break]
02. Learning takes time, so you can only purchase this once per month (resetting on the 1st)
[break][break]
03. The cost and your character's ability to effectively learn the spell depend on their witch rank:
[break]BAS techniques - Cost 10 AP, and anyone can learn them
[break]ADV techniques - Cost 15 AP, and only novices & up can learn them
[break]MAS techniques - Cost 20 AP, and only acolytes & up can learn them
[break][break]
04. Please use the below template:
[/PTab][PTab=general skills]
01. General skills are non-magical abilities which do not consume an item slot. Things like lock-picking, diplomacy, etc. Not having a general skill will not bar your character from performing these activities -- it will just give them an edge over others. Unless granted by an event, the exact details of the skill tend to be unique to the character.
[break][break]
02. The cost of a new skill (which will begin as bronze) is a flat 5 AP. General skills may also be rewarded at the end of events, but it is rare.
[break][break]
03. General skills come in 3 ranks -- bronze, silver, and gold. Once created, these skills can be upgraded from bronze to silver or from silver to gold for 10 AP. General skill upgrades may be given at the end of quests, special missions, or events where applicable, though this is also fairly rare.
[break][break]
04. Developing skills takes time, so your character may only create or improve 1 general skill per month.
[break][break]
[break][break]
05. Please use the below template:
[/PTab][PTab=apprenticeships]
01. This is an opportunity to learn magic and skills from other characters on the site! By completing a training thread with another character, each character can add a spell or skill copied from the inventory of the other. Training can happen in mission or social threads and does not retract from these types of threads' rewards upon completion.
[break][break]
02. The person who creates the thread needs to post here after the first post with a link to the training thread and the spells/skills being taught. All participants need to 'like' the post made in this thread to indicate they agree with the exchange!
[break][break]
03. Anyone can teach & learn general skills. Your character must be a certain witch rank to teach and learn different levels of spells, however:
[break]BAS spells - anyone can learn, apprentices & up can teach
[break]ADV spells - novices & up can learn, adepts & up can teach
[break]MAS spells - acolytes & up can learn, only masters can teach
[break][break]
04. The thread should be at least 5 posts per character involved. The spells or skills being learned should be utilized in the thread in some way.
[break][break]
05. Each character may only learn 1 affinity spell, elemental technique, new general skill, or general skill upgrade from one of the others, or otherwise receive between 50-250 gold from the others' inventories for their services (paid upon thread completion). New general skills will always start as bronze rank.
[break][break]
06. A character may only start 1 new training thread per month, regardless of if they're teaching or learning.

SOLID FLIGHT
NON-MAGICAL SKILL - BRONZE
This character is a skilled flier on their broomstick- they can get curves and do maneuvers the average witch would not want to attempt at all. It’s likely that they will fly higher and faster than the competition, and they have improved spatial awareness and dexterity in all things. They’re still ways to go before becoming an ace, but they’re on the path!
[attr="class","item"]
ESCAPE ARTIST
NON-MAGICAL SKILL - BRONZE
This character is skilled at escaping from various restrains and entrapments. their varied assortment of minor skills helps them escape from anything from mundane shackles, to specially reinforced sealed rooms, or even oversized magical vines of semi-sentient plants. although the escape artist can free themselves from restraints more quickly than the average person, it may still take time to escape from particularly difficult or unfamiliar confinements.
