He watched his team mates set about adjusting their plans and fussing with their animals.  The pets and the owners seemed to adore one another.  But the animals could have minds of their own, independent streaks, and could be distractions.<br/><br/>The Hexcaster, himself, didn't have an animal bonded to him.  It would probably happen.  It seemed destiny loved paring magicians to familiars of one type or another.  Gereed would probably go 'ga-ga' over his familar when it happened, no matter what species it was.  Hopefully it wouldn't be a toad or a mouse.<br/><br/>Elric had decided to assume something like command of the team.  He politely (in his way and loudly) suggested that Gereed prepare some hexes of general protection for the team.  It would need to be something that wouldn't interfere (much) with their magical abilities....<br/><br/>Gereed called over to the Enchanter, "<span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(32, 178, 170)">Elric, do you want a lesser protection lasting for a period of time in case of ambushes or would you like something that protects more strongly that the person can activate in case they see trouble coming?</span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(255, 255, 255)">"</span>
