-+<< 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.
Each Wandslinger can offer vigilance to a locale and defend it as he sees fit. Doing so focuses one's mind and brings one closer to one's ka. See "help show ka" and "help set vigil" for more information.
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 "perform wand fire with <wand>" or, generically, "perform wand fire" (see "help wand fire"). If you are wielding more than one wand, the latter command will activate all of them. A Wandslinger sufficiently advanced towards his ka can attain a mental set known as Wandslinger focus; see "help perform Wandslinger focus" for details. Still more advanced Wandslingers can manifest their ka or release volleys of wand fire; see "help perform wand fire volley" and "help perform manifestation of ka" for details.
Wandslingers also learn rudimentary magicks that help them defend their vigil. The most common is the inscription of the rune of the keeper, a sigil inscribed on the ground with a wand that lets one teleport to one's vigil when it is in danger. See "help perform the inscription of the rune of the keeper" for details.
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.
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 identifying and memorizing them. You'll also start gaining intrinsically known wands with sufficiently high (80+) Arcane Lore.
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 four months (anecdotally 9) 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.
