To the root

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa shrugs, "If, for example, the best solution to a problem includes something that goes against any part of their nature, they'll refuse it outright. Let's say... you have an enemy a task that you can't complete, and there's another out there who could help you. If you represent good and the other is evil, even if there is no negative impact to working together to solve the problem, you'll refuse to do so, flat out.

In context for me, if saving the world required locking knowledge away so that no one could ever know or learn it, I'd be in the same situation. I don't think I could deal with it. Not very well, at least. But, that's the nature of things like this, I suppose."

Delaize is quiet longer before, "I see," he says at long last. Thoughtful perhaps, or maybe overwhelmed by it all.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well, enough of that. You can mull over it all and make a list of questions for later. It's a lot to process, so, let's move on for now to something that's more straight forward. How's our realm doing?"

[Anastasia]

"Well. Selunites have come to visit and a few have stayed," Is the report right off, "It's a steady stream, and many have brought gifts as homage. Most of them have been directly useful such as supplies, or things worth money, which is spent directly on the realm. We're building as fast as we can with both mundane and magical means, and it's all working out well there. Somehow the tide is never enough to overwhelm us." A quiet pause, a consideration before, "That may be the nature of an outer plane."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods, "Are we utilizing summons to help with construction? What are we lacking?"

[Anastasia]

"Many summons are too short term," Delaize shakes his head, "We've had more success with earth moving, metal and stone manipulation, wood shaping. That's what's worked best for us so far."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods, "Alright. Where are we lacking?"

[Anastasia]

"Right now? Time." Delaize says simply, "But time passing will fix that. We need more of everything but we have the supplies, we just need the time to build."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods... "Well, there's not much I can do about that. That said, maybe I can do something about helping the people we have reach their full potential..."

What do you think on using Alter Reality to make like... A fountain or something that everyone can use that will give X hour(s) bonus to stats and/or skills? Something to help people fully maximize their efforts?

[Anastasia]

Could you make a magic item that does that within the cost range of the deific crate items functions?

[Iron Dragoon]

I have no idea, but I doubt it. I think it's 4500gp for my level? Any other ideas for something similar? I'm not sure how I can use deific abilities to make something like this work? Can I, I dunno, alter the plane to have it as an effect or something?

[Anastasia]

Something that grants a +2 competence bonus (ala minor skill boosters) to a few skills might be viable.

You can change planar traits, but not in a way to call up bonuses like that on demand when needed. Those are more permanent things usually.

[Iron Dragoon]

Well, I wanted it to be permanent. I suppose I'm not really sure what the limits are, but what about something like a permanent Unseen Crafter spell to aid people? It's only a level 2, which Alter Reality should be easy to cover. Can I do something like a shrine or the like that people can pray at and, while only in the plane, they get the spell granted to them?

[Anastasia]

Well,to make a magical item that constantly uses a level 2 spell costs 12k at a minimum if I do the math.

A level 1 spell is 1k, albeit any application of that has an asterisk since some break due to the low level math. You would whip up something simple using a first level booster spell that's workable.

[Iron Dragoon]

Hmm... Can I do anything to help make more possible with Words of Creation?

Edit: So, in looking through 1st level spells, there's precedent for something like this. Ancient Knowledge - Level 1 spell that gives +5 insight, 1 hour/level and Bigby's Helpful Hand - Level 1, holds items for you, helps you complete long, involved tasks, and otherwise aids you, grants +2 competence bonus on Craft and other things, 1 hour/level. I think it's fairly reasonable that we can make something work for what I'm aiming for: something to help proficiency and/or save time.
