NPC Scroll Picks

 Each event that you NPC you may purchase items with goblin stamps from this list, up to the point values listed below. You MUST NPC the entire event to take advantage of the NPC pick list.   To purchase a Scroll you must have the Goblin Stamps in the database at the start of the Event or entered via donations during the Event you NPC.   Ritual Scrolls and Catalysts do not expire and can be bought in advance of a casting.  Reagents, however, are uniquely and randomly generated on each Ritual Scroll and do have expiration dates.  NPC's who wish to buy Reagents can spend the Goblin Stamps for them at the Event and have them printed at a later date (the purchase will be recorded in the LCO Ritual Database and the Goblin Stamps will be deducted as normal).

 

 3 Day Weekend: 750 

 2 Day Weekend: 500

1 Day Event: 250

Mod Day: 100

 

NPC Scrolls, Reagents and Catalysts follow all the same rules as standard Ritual Magic items in the Alliance Game.  The text on the Scroll will tell you what Reagents and Components you need as well as the casting time, effect and duration of the Ritual.  A Formal Magic Caster  of the appropriate Aspect (listed on the Scroll) is required to cast a Ritual.  

 

Brief descriptions of the Ritual Scrolls listed below are available in the Alliance Rulebook. 

 

RECENT CHANGES- in keeping with Alliance Ohio's policy of periodically reviewing our NPC rewards list a few changes have been made to the following list. These changes are current as of 05/10/09 and will be enforced for ALL unclaimed NPC picks (whether the pick was earned prior to this change or after).

 

1) Preserve Duration is now subject to the 10 Ritual max and Spirit Lock Flaw (see below the pick list for information). Items are still restricted to the standard 20-Ritual maximum.

2) All Rituals purchased will not receive the base Reagents required to cast the Ritual. Reagents will be marked in the system and stored in the LCO Ritual Database and available for printing upon request. However they are created on the date requested and still expire normally whether they are printed or not. This change means that LCO Reagents and their lists are no longer IG stealable. Use of the printed list will be explained when created for a character. This change is retroactive to April 09.

 

Rules:

Items created with NPC Scroll Picks are considered LCO (Local Campaign Only) and are clearly marked so on the Scroll or Tag attached to them.  You can not, under any circumstances, use these components or Scrolls to create Restricted Items.  (In Alliance a "Restricted" Item is accepted for use in any Alliance Campaign.  IE- "they travel").

 

1)  You may only buy a catalyst for a scroll you currently have in your possession, this scroll must be presented to a staff member when you purchase the catalyst.

You may only buy one catalyst per year.

 

2) All Scrolls are limited to three per person per year unless otherwise noted in the list below. 

 

 3) You may not pick scrolls based on knowledge of someone’s need or want or to explicitly sell to another player.  These rewards are intended for the person who NPC'd for us. 

 

4) Items created with ANY LCO components (Catalysts, Reagents or Scrolls) even as a part of the "full casting" will be considered and tagged as LCO.  For Example if you were to create a Damage Aura, Spirit Linked, Spell Channel sword with "Restricted" (standard) Ritual Scrolls and used a SINGLE LCO Reagent the resulting item would be LCO. Adding LCO Rituals to ANY item turns that items into LCO - you cannot have a single rep with two tags (one LCO, one Restricted). Restricted Items that have LCO batches added to them will be re-tagged as LCO and the Restricted tag will be marked as expired as if the item duration expired or was the subject of a Destroy Formal Magic Ritual. The LCO Ritual Scrolls magic is of such connection to Vandlar that this tie to our Campaign overrides less restrictive magics.

 

5) LCO (Local Campaign Only) Items are only considered Magic in their home campaign (ie Alliance Ohio).  Some Chapters may accept LCO Items from other Chapters (contact a chapters Logistics Staff to determine if they will accept LCO Item transfers).  LCO Items (including Scrolls, Reagents and Catalysts) do NOT travel "the Mists" and should not be taken to other campaigns (unless previously approved for use by that campaigns Logistics as stated above).

 

6) LCO Rituals DO count against the maximum number of Rituals a character, item or area can have on it.  



 

Components are necessary for Casting Rituals.  All Rituals require Reagents but only powerful Rituals require Catalysts.  Check your scroll to see exactly what Reagents (and Catalyst) will be needed.  Reagents are randomly generated for every scroll while Catalysts are the same for all Scrolls of the same Ritual.

Reagents:    100                           

Catalysts:     500 - limited to 1 per person per year. You may only purchase a Catalyst for a Scroll that is available on this NPC pick list. You must present the scroll which requires the Catalyst to staff when you obtain the Catalyst.

Preserve Duration Restriction:

1) Preserve Duration is limited to 10 effects (see #5 under Permanence Restrictions below).

2) Preserve Duration is affected by the Spirit Lock FLAW (see #1 under Permanence Restrictions below)

Permanence Restriction:

The following rules apply to the LCO Permanence Scrolls:

1) LCO Permanence is subject to a FLAW which affects all LCO Permanence Scrolls in Vandlar and will Spirit Lock the item to an individual. Spirit Lock is a FLAW and DOES NOT take up a Ritual slot in addition to the slot taken up by the Permanence.
2) LCO Permanence can only be taken ONCE for a given Character EVER.
3) Abuse of this policy and the restrictions of the LCO Permanence may result in the LCO Permanence scroll being taken away.

4) The CATALYST for the LCO Permanence may ONLY be used with an LCO Permanence purchased from this list and may only be taken ONCE per Character. Attempting to use an LCO Permanence Catalyst with a RESTRICTED Permanence Scroll will cause an immediate Backlash and the destruction of the Catalyst, Components and Scroll.

5) LCO Permanence has additional Restrictions including a limit on the number of Rituals which it will affect (owing to the fact that it has a greater Effect than a standard Permanence) as well as when/where the Spirit Lock effect will apply. For more information see the Scroll text or ask Staff. As with any LCO reward Alliance Ohio reserves the right to review these restrictions at any time.

The LCO Permanence is meant as a greater reward for those who do significant volunteer or NPC service to our Chapter. It is not our intention to flood the game with 20 Ritual Permanent Items. All items created via the LCO policy are subject to the Rules listed above. Any attempts to abuse the LCO Reward policy may result in a loss of future, existing or past rewards/items gained.
