Belisar, Level 13, Student of Architecture
Home
My home base CP is set up at 982, 1172, in Seven Lakes, a bit south of the souther School of Art, east of the road on the east side of the nile.
I actually use seven compounds scattered about my vale, each one specialized for a purpose/skill set. Many of my facilities are public.
- My Initiation into Art Sculpture, "Angling for Cod" can be found at (958,1177) 21 votes complete.
- My Initiation into Thought Thoth's puzzle is at (958,1174) 7 judges complete
I have take the permanent cure for the lung disease.
Married to Shebi.
Immediate Goals
Currently trying to get all my facilities built up at my camp. So I'm largely working on smelting/forging/casting all the metals bits I'll need.
Because I'm so close to limestone, I'm gonna try and become a mass producing glazier, and I really enjoy anvil work, so hopefully I'll master some smithing skills as well.
But my real goals are test passing and research. I'm more interested in passing tests than gaining levels, except where I need the level to get the tests. As for research, I am looking forward to getting up to full speed so I can be a contributing member to the reverse engineering egypt squads.
Special areas of interest for research
I know I'm starting late in the telling, but I enjoy puzzle solving, researching, and data crunching, so, though I'm sure I'm "re-inventing the wheel" I am gathering research as I go.
- Petition Proposal - Rough draft of a petition I'd like to get out there
- Carrot Seeds - please contact me with any experiments you've tried with this.
- Crossbreeding/Mutagenics - I haven't started yet but it fascinates me.
- Herb Seeds - Trying to collect some of each herb variety, for experiments on planting and harvesting at other than the one tower.
- Acrobat - I want to see if there are comparable relationships between teachers and students, to maybe develope a quick way to line people up with the best teachers.
- Booze, Smoke, and Food - Yes I'm calling that research, I'm a alcoholic, stoner, glutton RL and it transcends electronic barriers.
Disciplines
My primary Disciplines of Interest are Architecture, Thought, and Art and Music. These are the schools that I'll be working hard at advancing along.
I'm also gonna be putting effort into Body, for the stat points of course.
Worship, Harmony, Leadership, I'll do when I can squeeze them in.
