(o the Travelers o)
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.
The invocations known to you are as follows:
Gajakarnikaya Gam Ganapataye Ganadhyakshaya
Kadantaya Kapilaya Kshipra Prasadaya
Lambodaraya Shree Ganesh Vighna Nashanaya

Invocation Mantra : o lord Ganesha, elephant god whose ears are
constantly fanning, who hears all seven chakras and all seventy two
thousand nadis, listen to Brahman, listen to Shakti, and find me <"a"/"an"
enhancement type> principle
Once one has a formaxian one can learn to enhance it with cosmic energies
such as one needs in various circumstances.
The enhancements you currently know are: acid, aether, alkaline, burning
sky, force, magickal, monochromatic light, photonic, polychromatic light,
rainbow, sky-lightning, temporal and vacuum.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

the obstacle, and the challenger will not be able to receive a new challenge
