Parker Barrows Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) A couple of questions that I thought of going through Under Quarantine. They might be be in one of the books, but I can't find. So, if someone knows, please point me where. 1. Necromancers get the Raise Dead Magica as an auto include. But what if you start with a Necromancer and don't have a Grimoire (or start as something else without a Grimoire and move into it)? Can you cast it without an Immuto? I think you can, but I wanna confirm. 2. Can you take the alternative Whipser Magical Theory from Into the Steam when becoming a Necromancer or does it need to be the Whipser Theory from the core book? This is assuming the character has no Magical Theory. 3. I have seen references to number of Undead you can control. But I can't find where it is determined. I'm guessing based off of Necromancy Skill. How big can my horde get? Edited March 27, 2016 by ABoyNamedSue Figured I should give spoiler warning in case someone doesn't realize I'm talking about the book and not a quarantine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you give me a reference? Standard Raise Undead Magia doesn't put a limit on number, but it puts a limit on time (and obviously there's a limit based on corpses).

Awesome. Thanks for the answers. The the first Revivalist Advanced Pursuit says that the Retainer no longer counts against "the number of Undead or Spirits this character can control."

It's for things like the Medium's Talent that lets it have a certain number of Spirits. There are certain things that do have limits, and this is freeing you from that limit.

Parker Barrows Posted March 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Oh. OK. I thought it was an overall limit. Thanks for the heads up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Barrows Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Another Question: Should a Medium choose a Magical Threoy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mason Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 3 minutes ago, ABoyNamedSue said: Another Question: Should a Medium choose a Magical Threoy? Eventually, yes, whenever the character learns a Manifested Power. Per the FAQ (emphasis mine): Q: How do characters that do not start the game as a Dabbler, Tinker, or Graverobber gain a personal Magical Theory? A: Gaining a personal Magical Theory is at the discretion of the Fatemaster, but should generally occur when the character chooses to follow the Dabbler, Tinker, or Graverobber Pursuit, attempts to learn spells from a Grimoire, or develops a Manifested Power. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chriscdoa Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Another question. Do the various effects of stages of maladies stack? I assume so but wasn't sure. So at level 3 blood sickness i get the level 1,2 and 3 effects? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, third paragraph of pg. 149: "These symptoms are cumulative; as a character's illness becomes stronger, she develops more and more symptoms, until finally she reaches the final (often lethal) stage of the disease." Three ranks of Blood Sickness brings you pretty close to "going native." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
