Behold! Ronikai's triumphant return to Academagia!!!

Has there ever been a case where someone was mastered without even knowing it? As in they lived their life normally, but the whole time they were also mastered? Or does all mastery result in a "glazed over eyes" kind of situation?

What did teachers do when a student accidentally mastered themselves Legate? Stuff like that must have happened pretty often right? Is there a way to reverse the effects without damage? I'm assuming if someone masters themselves their minds might turn to jell-o

Plus, as far as we've been told, there isn't a protection spell against Mastery using Mastery. The way you would protect yourself using Mastery is the Master the Master Mastering you (heh heh, try saying that hecka fast)

Rhialto; The problem with the idea of "I'll learn Mastery so I can protect myself" ends up a pretty weak argument in of itself since you'll definitely use the skill sooner or later. Mastery has a way of getting control of its user, especially if they are inexperienced or just a generally weak spellcaster. There's also the issue that no matter how much you study there is always someone more skilled than you are. That's why legally that argument doesn't stand a chance, and from person to person it just sounds morally dubious. That being said, you COULD have serious willpower and never use Mastery, but there's always societies "what if" fear

Were we ever told if True Speech would be something we could learn in later years?

Do dragons have some sort of education system, or is magic just natural to them?

How does Schohanwicht handle expulsion? It can't be simple considering its secrecy

So sounds like the dragons have a pretty advanced civilization with a heirarchy. Can you shed any light on it? Do they have leaders or representatives? Are they a DEMOCRACY? Plot twist the Praetextia was made by dragons everybody. Elumianati confirmed

Aesthetically I feel that gates fits in well with Morvidus. Maybe it's all the green... Or the eccentricities of the student body of Morvidus that just looks well with Gates, as odd as that sounds

I don't know if anyone plays GW2, but is the size of a dragon like Jormag big or...? Or maybe like that elder dragon from how to train your dragon big? I may be eleven, but I am Dovahkiid, dragon slayer! And aspiring lute player... *achem* So honestly, what's stopping the dragons from messing up our floating island "paradise"? [Redacted] lives on campus and you "retrieve" [redacted] from bullies. Then [redacted] comes looking for [redacted]. So that means that those above a certain skill level can move about freely, so what's stopping droggo's from attacking?

I agree Rhialto. I've tried the Secret Background before with other colleges and it never quite fit as well as Morvidus had. Especially if you put revision as one of your classes. That being said, does anyone else have backgrounds that they place with specific colleges?

Do dragons know about Astrology despite being unable to use it? Like knowing the phemes and how it works, since anyone can study it but only few can actually use it And are the dragons "dragons" or "wyverns"? And what is the ration of human population vs dragon population, because for a while I've been wondering if there are more dragons thans humans, or if there are some dragons and they're just too strong to fight (and thus the retreat)

I enjoyed the Durand adventure where the stuff gets stolen. I have high hopes for Durand since everyone has their own sense of justice and "right" in that college. So strong that you could even see it as a bit brutish, know what I mean? And you're right about Vernin being a good starting college. The fact that only two slots are mandatory is the biggest perk, just by looking without knowing.

It's just the classes that are mandatory in Vernin, and then for whatever reason I imagined a lot of book reading for enchanters. Which doesn't make sense, but I pass by Vernin like a 90's movie bully

I... I thought that Godina would surely win.... Or at least Aranaz.... *slinks back into the darkness from whence I came in defeat* I always labeled Vernin as the "nerd college", irrelevant info, but there ya go hah hah

The character would probably be one of the least liked students at school as well since we've been told that there will be relationship drops when switching colleges. If all of the studying doesn't kill you the insane amount of bullying might haha! Legate, in lore, has there been a student that has switched colleges more than twice? (Excluding before the prohibitions)

Cool! It's no hurry. My laptop has a touchscreen and my cat likes to paw at it and watch things go wonky so the ui lock will save me a lot of sighs of despair haha! What are the other updates that are planned?

That doesn't sound fun at all. I like the lore debates that happen on these forums the most. On a side note, is the ui lock coming in the next update??

I have a question about Mastery vs Glamour when it comes to influencing emotions. How can a person tell the difference between Glamour or Mastery when it's done to them? I'm asking because of Magsa's actions in Zorzi's Note. Also, is it possible for a student to change colleges every year? Like starting in Aranaz and then switching to Morvidus in Y2 then going to Vernin and etc? And if so, what would be the consequences? And then there's the matter of Katja. If you don't help her, or manage to fail her adventure, does this mean she won't appear in later years?

I'm glad I'm not the only one with ruffled feathers about the steam reviews. I bet some of the people were expecting some kind of anime visual novel game where romance is the main point. I saw someone try to compare it to Magical Diary and I thought "Did... Did you not see the Steam photos...?" I'm not bashing the dating game genre (since I own way too many dating games and LOVE them) But I don't understand where these crazy assumptions are coming from. The description says it's text-based and the photos showing nothing BUT text! ={/ I know I'm a biased opinion and all, but c'mon

I've actually wondered if we'll get an adventure if your family are famous campaigners as well as descended from traitors. I enjoyed making a character in Durand that had the two backgrounds

Iono, sometimes people like to practice languages by reading difficult things for the sake of learning new words. Back when I took French I was slowly going through the Count of Monte Cristo to "hone my abilities". It was hard but it did work somewhat

Did you use too much spice? That sounds painful

Would it be possible to keep a familiar with a fractured bond? Like... Oh I don't know... Completely taking over its mind? Or perhaps hijacking someone else's familiar bond?
