Regardless of how your "two Tinkeresses - yay or nay" dialogue* goes:<br/><br/>All magic in Mythras requires<strong>two</strong>skills. Normally, those are a part of your Professional Skills which you get for your Profession...<br/>However, I'm not going to do it like that. You get two Professional Skills free at the Profession stage, and 30 more points to spend at it. You also get 30 points extra to spend on the Free Spending stage.<br/>Feel free to re-arrange anything you feel like.<br/><br/><br/>*Yes, I want you to decide that between you two. Regardless of what you decide, though, you both get the same bonus.<br/>Kathyan can use it for extra "mundane" skills, or for some other magical school's skills.<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">For Thinkering the skills are Recreating Blueprint (starting value INT*2) and Crafting Prototype (INT+POW).<br/>(Remember that actually creating a working prototype in the science of the Ancients requires investing a part of yourself...expressed as a number of Magic Points - which are equal to POW. Complexity-5 Tinkering Marvels might require 30 Magic Points...though those are seen once in a generation, if that).<br/>The "helper" can help with the Magic Points cost (and a helper is required for some projects).<br/>That's in addition to the financial price, mind you :P! But your big advantage is that any Creation is a lasting thing that can be stored for later use.</div></div>
