-+<< the Wandslingers >>+-

Clyde has taken you on as one of his Wandslingers, a loose band of vigilante wanderers with special training in the art of wand combat. Wandslingers have a reputation for being laws unto themselves, uncompromising even with each other, always prepared to face the worst.

Beyond certain minimal standards of admittance, Clyde lets his Wandslingers decide how to enforce justice on their own, trusting his students to protect those who deserve protection. Conflicts between his students over this issue have led to legendary and often tragic shooting duels.

Wandslingers are precise, fast, and deadly with their wands. They receive training in all aspects of wand use and wand lore. They have developed methods to bypass their normal esoteric activation mechanisms and fire them with but a thought. To fire a wand you have wielded, simply "will the activation of <wand>" or, generically, "will the activation of my wand." If you are wielding more than one wand, the latter command will activate all of them.

Clyde has devised holsters for his Wandslingers. In addition to facilitating quickdraw, they also gradually recharge any wand holstered within them. The belts draw on its bearer's subconscious ability at enchanting for guidance and energy, making learning the art of enchantment beneficial to the Wandslinger despite the passive nature of its employment. One should take care that one's belt does not fall into the hand of one's enemies.

With sufficient development, a Wandslinger can attain a state called Wandslinger focus. See 'help perform Wandslinger focus'.

-> + <-

The Wandslingers have been updated with myriad of behavioral mechanics and rewards. See help wandslingers, help show ka, and help show vigil for more information. Except more expansions of this and other related functionality in the near future.

Joining

Required specs to join:

Min  Specialty
1    Arcane lore  -  Intellect
1    Lack of weakness  -  Intellect
1    Tactics  -  Intellect
1    Intimidation  -  Ego
1    Find weakness  -  Perception
1    Tenacity  -  Willpower
1    Precision strike  -  Perception
2    Wyrding  -  Ego

INT 3, EGO 3, PER 2, WIL 1

Additionally you need to know 31 wand types. These can be gained by indentifying and memorizing them, or by having sufficiently high (80+) Arcane Lore to gain intrinsic knowledge.

These can be checked with "show intrinsically known wands" and "show memorized wands".

You state, [- I wish to walk the world as a Wandslinger -] in flowingly-accented Anglic.

The brown kentaur stallion suppresses a smile and nods to you.

The brown kentaur stallion says, So be it.  I will teach you to be a Wandslinger to you in Anglic.
The brown kentaur stallion gives a black leather holster to you with his right hand.

The holsters' wand charging capacity appears to be influenced by your skill in enchantment and magick affinity. These also play a role in the rate at which they recharge wands.

Leaving

You may leave at any time by talking to Clyde, but there is a lockout of some time longer than six weeks before you can rejoin.

You state, [- I wish to walk the world as a Wandslinger -] in flowingly-accented Anglic.

Clyde says, -+<< No, not again.  Perhaps someday. >>+- to you.
