 Majority of his spells are flavored to be chemical concoctions with a bit of added magic into them. Instead of simply producing a //fire bolt// from his hands and shooting it, he may combine items that are highly flammable into a jar and throw them at a creature. His whole deal is using both magical and physical properties of items and organisms and extracting said properties to create magical effects. A spell that deals acid damage may be the combination of a bombardier beetle and ants. A spell that deals frost damage may contain a specific bug in the DND world that when combined with a seemingly common item, such as iron, creates a freezing effect. In short, his "magic" is all about knowing the properties of seemingly unmagical items and using them to crease seemingly magical effects, or simply extracting the innate magic that everything has and repurposing it for his spells. Majority of his spells are flavored to be chemical concoctions with a bit of added magic into them.

Magic is necessary in living beings, as it is part of what allows them to live.

   * Paladins use their oath as a way to catalyze their innate magic.

They use special words ( verbal components ) as well as gestures ( somatic components ) To channel their own, innate magic. While other classes use verbal and somatic components, the ones wizard use are many times more complicated as they carry more magic than those of other classes. In other words, for most classes they serve as a key to channeling magic but to wizards the components are both key and door.
   * Druids do not always use their own magic, but instead channel the magic of the land.

 +**Entry 82**: 
 + 
 +I've not written for the last couple days as the weight of events have been overwhelming. However, I aim to write them all today while they are still fresh in my mind. 
 + 
 +The petal dragon, formerly known as Orleander, demanded that we do a couple of tasks in preparation for her upcoming celebration. However, upon notice that there was to be an assassination plot she quickly took matters into her own hands. 
 + 
 +On the night of our arrival at Jardins capital we were paid a visit by a white rabbit. He came bearing a message: either make a deal with the Hag Evelyn so that she may leave, or suffer inconceivable consequences for the next 3 days. Though his words carried weight, we did not realize truly the threat the rabbit posed until we witnessed our companion's head cut off.  
 + 
 +As a cost for his revival, the rabbit took my ability to create homunculi. though I still have skabatha's key I'm not sure if what I will do with it. Perhaps one day I will find a proper use for it. 
 + 
 +The day after we saw the band of the black albatross executed, thanks to our warning of course. However, Raishin's revenge had been denied. She, of course, would not have this and attempted to kill the leader on the spot. Afraid that the petal dragon would have his sister killed, caligo's asked that we use a needle infused with a venom capable of bringing down even a young god. The next thing we knew, orleander was dead and with her so was the entire nation of Jardins.  
 + 
 +Upon our return to the Prince of desires our promised rewards were granted. My wish was to live for 10,000 years while only aging until 25. I implore you, reader, whoever you are, who have one way or another attained my journal, to understand the reasons behind my wish. The greatest flaw of humanity is the short time we may walk this world. For many, the only way to leave an impact is purely by having children and hoping that their bloodline may one day do a great deed. This is far from what I want of my story. Instead, I have given myself enough time to be a master of my trade and thus one day impact the world with my discoveries and creations.  
 + 
 +I know eventually I will be lonely. All those whom I love and care for will either before my eyes and eventually months will feel like weeks, weeks like days, and days like seconds. But I refuse to allow these pains to limit me. I will rise above all obstacles in my way and achieve my goals, one way or another.  
 + 
 +I will ensure that I am not forgotten and lost to the passage of time.

The unicorn almost killed us and all we had to show for it were 3 things, the seeds which I no longer have, the mysterious potion that appears to be actually an incredibly complicated compound, and a spell scroll of a magic I cant completely wrap my head around. I lost my seeds.

I know it might seem small, but the damage it could have done to who i did it to might have been incredible. Im honestly thankful I was caught doing it.

-On a side note, I finally haveve some time to rest at Checkpoint town. I'll attempt to create potions while im here as well as get some rest. Ill do any arrangements necessary to make sure I am useful to the party while out of comission 
- 
-I need to remember one thing while I am here. While this land may seem to be a much larger improvement compared to where we came from (and it is), it can only look like this likely because energy is being sapped from the other end. This is by no means safety. The only difference between here and there is that the other side didn't hide its nature, but I think this side does.

-Another day alive! No changes in my condition as of yet. I was a bit out of it while the party was doing things though, but I think it might just be exhaustion from travel. The parties conversation with the major were wonderful and informative. However, the major himself seems to always upcharge his items and down charge his offers. I understand its all business, but I wish he'd been more honest with us. +Another day alive! No changes in my condition as of yet.
- +
-I am, however, 100% confident that he has a ball of scrying. I don't think it'll be cheap, but I am determined to get it one way or another. Didn't really get a chance to talk to him myself, but I plan on doing so tomorrow. Hopefully I can also obtain insights into the liquids and the mysterious potion. I sadly don't have any valuables on me that I might be able to use in order to buy or trade for the crystall ball, so I must either offer some information that he might be interested in or do quests. Aditionally, I may also be able to craft or have something crafted of great value that I can sell to him. I also do hope that I can have some time to learn to craft potions of healing. +

Line 288: Line 293:
  
 I don't think I need to say how concerning this is. I had already some suspicions that whoever was creating this was making some kind of weapon, but now it seems much more like a reality.

-I have too many thoughts regarding this to put them into my journal. Raishin knows about the liquids but she lied to me, the librarian said the creature related to these vials is so powerful its name shouldnt be spoken, Drow are somehow related to this. All I ever wanted was to go home.

 +**Entry 80** 
 + 
 +I finished the Hag munculus. The heart of green pea still had energy left in it, so I managed to use it to create a mechanical version of her. I gotta say, despite everything going on (specially today) I am pretty happy and I think its because the munculus is working. I could probably make my thesis on this… 
 + 
 + 
 + 
 +**Entry 81** 
 + 
 +Well, Skabatha is dead. Caligos went down a couple of times and we were all hurt pretty badly, but otherwise no casualties. GR33N-P (I decided to call the hag munculus green pea 2.0, but this feels like the right way to write it) was more than useful during the fight. 
 + 
 + Smoker summoned a powerful thing during the fight, which really helped with morale and Roviro did big things with his spells. He also pulled the wind up key from Skabatha's body which killed her off. He also gave me the wind up key, which is actually very exciting for me. I wonder what I can make with this one.  
 + 
 +Currently, we are in Skabathas study. Its a small room that had to be opened using the wind up key. It has pretty strong magic, and any book that leaves the room is destroyed.  
 + 
 +That being said, the book I am currently reading definitely pertrains to the black albatross' plan for the seeds. Its written in code, but im sure I can crack this in a day or two.  
 + 
 +My condition is worsening. I've tried to treat the symptoms, but it wont stop. Using magic and traveling is simply taking a toll on my body and its preventing it from fighting the disease. At this point, one more major act and I will die unless I figure something out.  
 +There are books here regarding doll making...
