BONUS ACTIVITY
Bonus activity can be submitted after a character has been active for at least one month, and consists of a bundle of three threads, each with a minimum of five comments from you. Threads have no expiration date and can be banked for the future, but each character is restricted to five bonuses each calendar month.
Bonuses must have an impact on the character, which can be as simple as a favorite food, or as poignant as a memento from a loved one. They cannot be a living creature.
Possible bonus requests include:
ITEMS: either common items (such as food, clothing, and tools) which are ICly requested by the character, or canon specific items (owned by the character) which are OOCly requested;
POWERS: individual canon powers, which may be tiered depending on player preference;
MEMORIES: gaining, losing, or altering a memory (either a true memory or a false memory);
PLOT: a plot clue (specify what you would like more information about); limited to one every other month.
Please use the following form:

Bonus request: Basic item construction magecraft.
Again, only the basic kind though, so he won't be like. Handing out Noble Phantasms. He also won't be able to make things with more complicated mechanisms in them e.g. a gun, a space heater, any sort of technological device.
It also requires equivalent exchange for materials; he won't be able to just magic items out of nowhere. For example:
- A sword or lance would require metal (pipes, etc) that characters would have to scrounge the town for.
- Basic medicine might require Mandrake leaves or Shan Xiao gourds
- A Force gem equivalent might need Hamsa feathers
- A Fire gem equivalent might need some Kaso tails
- A Soul Drop equivalent might need dust from Pixie wings
Those sorts of things. This basically introduces an item crafting system of sorts into the game, so if you think it needs to be nerfed further/needs more bonus activity threads as proof, I'm happy to save this for another time/hash things out/nerf more or even replace this power regain request with like, basic Illusionism instead, if you already had other things in mind for the game and its direction.
Feel free to also nerf creations on the spot by having them dissolve or break for one reason or another and it can always be chalked up to in-universe as typical Mystic vs. Mystic interference (like how divine weapons repel human magecraft) where the world rules here don't play nice with his magecraft.
Impact: Merlin would be able to walk the mage walk instead of just talking the talk lmao. It would also annoy Alice supremely, because she doesn't believe he's a mage. More seriously, he intends to use his magecraft to benefit the populace as a whole, in order to bolster their collective fighting force and survivability, and to build up goodwill...that he really hopes to cash in on if/when they find out he's half-demon :)
