Since it's getting quite cluttered at the plot RP, all tome and battle info will be summarized here.



User Image


Yes, as you RP you will gain experience every post. That experience will manifest itself in TOME PAGES, which you will collect for your pets.
User Image

I will give a page out for every ~10 legitimate posts, as well as bonus pages for very well written posts or RP. Legitimate means it must be literate, as well as longer than one or two sentences. I will give more than one post tallypoint if in your post you RP for more than one character.

Tome tallies will be on the first page and you can trade the pages in for a full tome, or other items at the shop. If you have multiple pets, you will have to choose to whom your RP pages will go to.

Battle Tome -

Your pet gains one attack dice. This will adjust attack dice to:
    ...Kit Stage - 2 10-sided dice
    ...Juvenile - 3 20-sided dice
    ...Adult - 2 100-sided dice
If the pet is not grown, when it goes to the next stage, it will go to the next amount of dice listed here.


Level 2: Tome of the Soldier - 2 pages
Your pet gains wisdom into the more subtle art of war, one completely unique to the Koivu. This will lower all crit levels by 5 points, making your crit @ 85+.


Level 3: Tome of the Warrior - 5 pages
Your pet gains one attack dice, specializing in a form of attack. This will change your attack dice to:
    ...Kit Stage - 3 10-sided dice
    ...Juvenile - 4 20-sided dice
    ...Adult - 3 100-sided dice


Level 4: Tome of the Knight - 2 pages
Now a full-fledged veteran, your pet has the ability to move faster than normal. Their attacks are fluid, and they are unable to botch anymore. Any "1" roll is disregarded.


Level 5: Tome of the Elite - 10 pages
Your pet is a Master in the Art of Combat. It may roll four attack dice once it is an adult, and only takes hit damage if the attack is 70+.

Psychic Tome -

This volume can teach your pet how to use their natural psychic abilities in fights against other Koivu or DH. Mental attacks are proportional to the mental capabilities of the victim, so while they would also be effective on a human, attacking a snake mentally would be much less effective, for example.

There are two paths you can take, once you begin training.


Cost:
Level 1: Tome of Enlightenment - 2 pages
This will teach your pet the basics of shielding their mind from Psychic attack. These Koivu can also speak privately to others, no matter the recipient's level. Conversations must have both with at least one level, however.


Level 2: Tome of Iron -3 pages
This will teach your pet to cast a rudimentary psychic shield about them, slowing down any physical attacks that attempt to cross it. All incoming physical attacks are -5. (This should replace the stat from the battle tome of "only hit by enemies at 70+" to hit at 75+.) They can also begin a base mental defense/attack of 1d4.


Level 3: Tome of Focus - 2 pages
Training commences on sharpening the mind for mental attack. This does +2 harm to opponents in mental attack.



PATH OF ANGER
Level 4:
Tome of Vision - 4 pages
Your pet begins to have psychic attack capabilities. Roll 2d4 mental damage.


Level 5: Tome of Clairvoyance - 10 pages
Attacks can be known before they occur. With this foresight, they will have the ability to launch a psychic barrage at the enemy, dealing 2d6 mental damage, and only taking half damage from any hits that may come their way.



PATH OF TRANQUILITY
Level 4:
Tome of Steel - 4 pages
A physical barrier can be cast to shield the pet from any attacks. Physical attacks by enemies are now -10. This replaces the bonus from Level 2.

If the Koivu has the battle Tome of the Elite, the "only hit at" will be modified from the battle tome stat of "hit by enemies at 70+", to now be "hit at 80+".


Level 5: Tome of Adamantium - 10 pages
They have such control that the psychic barrier may expand to protect one other Koivou if it is within one meter of their position. The pet is immune to all physical attacks (becoming battle tome "hits at 90+"). Any hits that do break the shield will only do half damage.

This stat trumps all other "hits at" mods and is the new defense base. Shaman Tome bonuses are the only thing that can increase this stat.

Shaman Tome -

By studying this tome, your pets may learn to commune with the Black Forest itself, and channel its powers.

There are two paths you can take, once you begin training.


Cost:
Level 1: Tome of the Seed - 2 pages
Your pet learns to fully hear the forest (it speaks in feelings, not words). With this they can sense danger and track other creatures better.


Level 2: Tome of the Leaf - 5 pages
Your now pet has the ability to use the Forest's healing energy to provide additional endurance (+1 to faint checks) and lessen pain.


Level 3: Tome of the Branch - 5 pages
Your pet learns more advanced medicinal techniques, and can create various simple potions, powders and poultices from the ingredients of the forest.



PATH OF AGRESSION
Level 4:
Tome of Self - 4 pages
With this, you can use the forest's magik to cloak one's self and be stealthy. Movement can be silent if they concentrate on such, and they can blend into the shadows much easier.


Level 5: Tome of the Elements - 5 pages
They learn to control the forest, by becoming one with its power. At this point they can communicate with and through the forest. Messages can be sent on the wind, by the trees, etc, and they can scry anything presently happening in the forest, of they know where to look.



PATH OF ACCEPTANCE
Level 4:
Tome of the Tree - 5 pages
Your pet now has the ability to heal most injuries by channeling the forest's energy to help the body repair itself. They can decrease pain sensed by themselves or others, and they themselves have a much higher endurance. These spells can only be done once per day.
TO HEAL, YOU MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:
User Image For minor cuts, they can be healed easily in 5-15 minutes.
User Image For bruises and larger cuts, they can usually be healed in 1/2 hour.
User Image For deep cuts, roll 1d4. That is how many hours it will take to heal without a scar. If you only do it in half the time allotted, it will heal, but scar.
User Image For broken bones, roll 1d4 to draw upon the forest. If you don't get a one, you will be successful. When successful, roll 3d4, and the TOTAL will be how many hours it will take to heal.
For hypothermia, roll the 1d4 and it'll take 15 minutes to heal with motes.


Level 5: Tome of the Forest - 10 pages
Your pet is fully in touch with the peaceful aspect of the forest. It can now read and apply Shamanic spells. As they are more difficult to accomplish, before casting, you must always roll 1d4 to draw upon the forest. If you don't get a one, you will be successful. These spells can only be done once per day.
TO HEAL, YOU MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:
User Image For healing illnesses, the time allotted will be equal to the severity of the ailment. Ex: 1 hour for a cold, 5 hours for pneumonia, a day+ for cancer. Ask if you are unsure.
User Image For healing poison, the time it takes equals the severity of the poison. Roll a d-4 and that result will be the time it takes to heal. Divide by 2 for weak poisons, and multiply by 2 for stronger ones.
User Image For healing mental damage, you will need at least 6 hours to enter the other Koivu's mind, search the ailment out, and banish it with the Shamanic spells.
User Image For increasing fertility, roll 1d100. If you roll over a 80, the couple will have +1kit. For 90+, the couple will have +2 (the max is still 4 though). This can only be attempted ONCE per conception.
User Image More to come...?



Level 6?!: Tome of Cujo - 10 pages
This tome was written by Cujo himself and contains his greatest spells. To get it, you must have mastered BOTH paths! When recieved, the Koivu is able to call upon one element (air, water, fire, earth, etc...) and create a massive attack with it. It is unique to the Koivu, just PM Trixie to go over the spell's details. Damage is 10 d-100's, but it can only be done safely once per day. If it is done a second time, first you must roll 1-d4 and get a 4. Any less and the power used in drawing the spell in such rapid succession will likely kill the wielder. Riftwing will help with RP in such cases.

This level may be taken multiple times: one for each element your Koivu chooses.

Growth Tome -

This volume is the most powerful that has been discovered so far. It contains spells that only the old and wise can perform. Though the elder spell can be perfomed by any adult Koivu, only those Celestials that have mastered the entire Shaman Tome can attain the higher levels.

((As a note, elders come without cost if the owner is active at the shop thread for a full year. Celestials are granted for free to those who RP their elders faithfully and find their totem in a RP prompt.))


Cost:
    Level 1: Tome of the Elder - 25 pages
    This manuscript describes the ritual that can make your pet become a Tribe Elder. But wait, there are no Tribes in the Black Forest, are there?

User Image

    ~Recipients: Freya


    Level 2: Tome of the Celestials - 50 pages
    This tome instructs an elder as to how to find their Celestial Body. Once they know what their Body is, they then imbue an item of their choice to become their totem. This may take hours or days of meditation, and may involve sweat, blood, crafting and sacrifice. Then, when their Body is in the sky above them, they will draw on the power of their Body and transform into a Celestial.

    ((Once your pet is an elder you can fill out the Celestial reservation form in the guild. When you buy this tome, you must post this Totem making process in the guild before your Anthro will be granted.))
    ~Recipients:



ONCE YOU ARE A CELESTIAL YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SKILLS, IN ANY ORDER.

    Tome of the Were - 8 pages
    To learn this is to truly understand the process of becoming Celestial. It is not permanent, though it does cost a great amount of energy to change from Celestial to fox form and back. Do not transform too much or it may cost you....

    Koivu may transform once per day. To transform more, roll a d-6 and get that number of times you have transformed or higher.

    ((example, you get one transform to fox from anthro. To change back, roll a d-6 and get a 2 or higher. To go back to fox again after that, roll a 3 or better. You cannot transform more than six times in an RP day.))
    ~Recipients:



    Tome of the Craftsman - 4 pages
    Once a Celestial reads this tome, they will be able to make objects that still have the spirit of the forest. They will appear more natural than human items. They also will have motes that are always floating about them. You must roleplay making the object in the plot thread, and be sure a realistic amount of time is spent making said object.
    ~Recipients:



    Tome of Sorcery - 10 pages
    Powerful magick is in the Black Forest, and with this tome, a Celestial can harness that power and tie it to a physical object. A bout of Sorcery takes twenty tome pages and an hour of undisturbed meditation in the forest, focusing on the item in question. One item can have up to five enchantments placed on it in this fashion.

    Possibilities for Enchantments, PM me if you have suggestions:
    Attack +1
    Defense +1 (Raises the number an attacker must roll to hit you)
    Damage +1 if you hit
    Psychic Shield +1
    DOOM (Double your damage if you roll a natural 100)

~Recipients:


Tome of Skill - 5 pages
Those that wish to have skills thay can only be done a limited amount of times a day need not worry! With each time this tome is taken, a single skill can be attempted once more per day. This can only be taken three times.
~Recipients:


Tome of Aggression - 10 pages
With every time this is taken, a Celestial can choose to inflict +1 mental damage with a successful hit OR they are able to attack +1 creature with their normal mental attack. This may be taken a maximum of five times.
~Recipients:


Tome of Protection - 15 pages
Take this tome multiple times to increase your mental defense by one point. Subtract those points from a mental attack roll to determine your mental damage if hit. Negative damage would mean in a battle of wills, the defender won and fought back. In this case, the defender has the choice of just being impenetrable or giving that negative damage amount back to the attacker!
