Prospectus Locus
This web page contains materials related to an Ars Magica campaign I
played in on Saturday nights with some friends. We started the campaign
on March 21, 1998;
although that session was only setup. The first actual gaming session
was on
March 28, 1998. This site just has my stuff. See Links section for the
link to
the official Prospectus Locus web site.
Characters
My main character was Catorse. He was a beginning level of House
Guernicus, which are the judges of the Order of Hermes. Catorse himself
was not the most neutral and ethical judge, sometimes tending to side a
little too much with the covenant.
Catorse – Introductory Background
Playing a mage is not my style. Larissa was a companion level
character, a
bard-turned-redcap of dubious skills. She's based on the character
Leicky from New
Cirra, expelled from there to wander the world until she proves herself
worthy of returning. I had much more fun playing this character, a good
hearted inept young woman with lesbian undertones. The following
letters are ones she wrote to the people back in New Cirra.

Adventures
I ran two adventures. Week 9's "To Rescue a Slinky" was an adventure to
New Cirra, when Larissa was still the NPC Leicky. The characters meet
The Goddess and are tasked with getting her slinky back from the Giant
Lizard (i.e. Godzilla). I used props in this fanciful adventure,
including cans of Pepsi and a plastic Godzilla toy. This adventure
(with different protagonists) was also done as a series of Cirran
Restoration Society skits that I posted on the Hudson Leick Mailing
List.
To Rescue a Slinky
The second adventure was Week 33's "Win, Lose, or Pantomine" which I
ran at about January 30, 1999. The mages are back in New Cirra to
compete in a game show for fabulous prizes! There was no real point to
this adventure other than to have some fun.
Win, Lose, or Pantomine
Miscellaneous
For Week 38's log, written from one of the covenant elder's viewpoint.
[19990320] Fabricarius' Diary
(Week 38)
A skit I wrote, showing a secret meeting of our three covenant elders.
Mostly written to show that they were not as clueless about our actions
as we thought they were..
