Special Rules

Experience - Each player will receive experince equal to the amount of house we played. Extra experience can be gained from nominating other players for good roleplaying at the end of the session or doing something extra for the game.

Learning New Rotes - Normally rotes are bought through experience. Each rote costs twice the hightest sphere rating +1 for each additional sphere included. While students are at candlerote the will make a study roll at the end of each session equal to a rote skill plus sphere. All points earned during the roll must be applied to a rote(s) that require the sphere and skill used. Experience can be used in addition to the rote roll.

Example - Haf decides she wants to learn Self Healing (life 2) pg183. She uses medicine 2 + life 2 and rolls 1 success. Not quite enough to buy the rote but Haf wants it now and decides to make up the extra point with experience which she spends two.

Guest GMs and Masters - If anyone is interested in either running a game or playing one of the masters let me know at least two weeks before you run so we can share ideas.
