Spoiler warning: information below includes details, such as solutions to puzzles or quest procedures, that you may prefer to discover on your own.
Guild Main Helpfile
You are a Traveler, a wandering priest of priest of Ganesha, lord of
gateways, places and remover of obstacles, guide to enlightenment,
protector to freedom.
A Traveler's primary task is overcoming obstacles: overcoming them
himself, and helping others overcome them. As he does so, he will find
himself rewarded by Ganesha in many ways. These rewards are called
bestowals, and they are primarily of two types: recurring boons, most of
which can be acquired by anyone, and more permanent boons that can be
acquired only by Travelers. You have acquired twenty permanent bestowals.
Travelers spend their lives spreading freedom and enlightenment,
journeying across the world and doing good deeds, in a never-ending quest
to better their understanding of kharma and dharma. Doing so brings them
closer to Ganesha, makes their invocations and powers more effective,
enables them to discover hidden energy stores in themselves in the form of
chakras, allowed them to live longer -- and has other, still stranger
effects.
As a Traveler you are able to invoke Ganesha to various effects. See
'help invocations' for more details.
Invocations
You are able to invoke Ganesha by reciting certain mantras to him in
Archaen. More invocations will be revealed to you the more obstacles you
overcome. Each invocation has its own help file. You must be in a fairly
calm state to invoke Ganesha; you cannot invoke him while moving around or
fighting.

Gam Ganapataye
the invocation Gam Ganapataye Ability Determinants : 50% of ergimancy skill plus 50% of invocation skill plus 25% of intelligence plus 75% of charisma Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o Ganesha, lord of all journeys and travel, who wanders and gathers knowledge into his great belly, let me mark the significance of this place for my own journeys; count it as the <nth> landmark to guide me on my road This invocation lets one mark a passage in the cosmos symbolically, as one that one desires to return to or use as a landmark on one's future journeys.

Ganadhyakshaya
the invocation Ganadhyakshaya Ability Determinants : invocation skill plus charisma Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o lord Ganesha, he who is the elephant and the serpent and the lion and the mouse and the peacocke and the horse, placer of obstacles, <target> requests enlightenment and challenge Ganesha can place an obstacle for one who requests it, even if he is not a Traveler himself. For this invocation to work, the target must explicitly trust you; Ganesha will not inflict these challenges upon those that do not desire them. If the target completes this challenge, it will be partly by your action that this result came about, and your karma phala will perforce increase.

Kadantaya
the invocation Kadantaya Ability Determinants : invocation skill plus charisma Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o lord Ganesha, the elephant-faced who is like the sun to the lotus-faced Parvati, placer of obstacles, grant me a challenge so that I might find wisdom Ganesha not only removes but places obstacles. The primary mode of adoration of a Traveler is to request one deliberately in obsecration. By reciting this mantra, one entreats Ganesha to both show one a path, and to bar it. Finding one's way to the end of the path in spite of the obstacle will remove the obstacle, bring a direct divine reward from Ganesha, and increasing one's karma phala, enlightenment, and freedom.

Kapilaya
the invocation Kapilaya Ability Determinants : 50% of invocation skill plus 40% of ergimancy skill plus 10% of weapon lore skill plus 35% of intelligence plus 65% of charisma Energy Costs : fifty points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o lord Ganesha, god of molten gold and master of all colors, I offer you obeisance and ask for <"a"/"an" weapon type> Once one has summoned a formaxian, this invocation requests of Ganesha to serve as a divine intermediary between one and one's formaxian, to communicate to the formaxian the shape that one is envisioning. The shapes that one knows are dependent on one's weapon lore.

Kshipra Prasadaya
the invocation Kshipra Prasadaya Ability Determinants : 50% of invocation skill plus 25% of conjuration skill plus 25% of ergimancy skill plus 75% of charisma plus 25% of intelligence Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o lord Ganesha, master of all obstacles, for whom chaos never was and never will be, in my time of need help me see the path that I walk, the path starting when the world hatched from its egg, ending in eternity This invocation entreats Ganesha for a brahmanda-prakasa, a world-egg, a reflection of the cosmos at its birth. The brahmanda-brakasa manifests itself as an aura of starry, cosmic energy. The aura will protect one in innumerable ways. The higher one's karma phala, and ability with this invocation, the more effective its protection will be. To release the brahmanda-prakasa, repeat the invocation.

Lambodaraya
the invocation Lambodaraya Ability Determinants : 50% of conjuration skill plus 50% of invocation skill plus 25% of intelligence plus 75% of charisma Energy Costs : five hundred points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o leader of the pramada ganas, one who is the color of vermillion, with an elephant's visage and a hanging belly, I offer obeisance to you first, and ask that you grant me a tool with which I may seek more knowledge This invocation requests of Ganesha that he offer you a divinely mediated bond with a formaxian, a sessile, extraplanar, metamorphic creature made of beautiful crystal. Formaxians are said to universally worship Ganesha and enjoy great favor with him, though the details of how and why, or even what exactly formaxians are or where they live, are obscure. A formaxian conjured in this manner will remain with one permanently. If it is ever lost or destroyed for some reason, performing this mantra again will conjure another.

Shree Ganesh
the invocation Shree Ganesh Ability Determinants : invocation skill plus charisma Energy Costs : five points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o lord Ganesha, radiant as millions of suns, remove your obstacles from <my/target's> path The Shree Ganesh mantra allows the Traveler to entreat Ganesha to remove one of his obstacles from those who have been unable to overcome it themselves. For one to perform this on a person besides oneself, that person must explicitly trust the Traveler. An obstacle removed in this way is tantamount to forfeiting a challenge. Ganesha is kind enough to remove an obstacle from any who need it, but firm enough to show no charity beyond mercy for the forfeiter. The challenger will receive none of the benefits for overcoming it, other than the removable of the obstacle, and the challenger will not be able to receive a new challenge from Ganesha for another day.

Vighna Nashanaya
the invocation Vighna Nashanaya Ability Determinants : invocation skill plus charisma Energy Costs : ten points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o Ganesha, lord of hosts, who dwells at the base of my spine, who tastes the kapitta and the jamboophala and remembers all things, reveal the paths you have opened to me This invocation requests of Ganesha that he reminds you of the locations that you have designated as landmarks on your journey. Development Information : This invocation was created by Den and is maintained by Twilight; the source code was last updated Sun Jun 07 18:14:37 2009.
Vikataya
the invocation Vikataya Ability Determinants : 40% of invocation skill plus 30% of conjuration skill plus 30% of ergimancy skill plus 45% of intelligence plus 55% of charisma Energy Costs : two hundred points of spiritual energy Invocation Mantra : o greatest Ganesha, whose single tusk overcomes the duplicity of appearance, help me see this world as a dream and a drama, and let me dance across the texts that give everyone a role, and let me find myself in the <nth> passage I have marked This invocation allows one to use the power of Ganesha to skip across the symbolic space that is the foundation for all cosmoi, and traverse the universe conceptually rather than physically. The frequency with which one can use this invocation depends upon one's ability in it.
