Haven't you heard the old saying: "Hey, nobody's prefect?"

[Grace Wilkinson]

You mean pobody's nrefect?

[Rahvin]

is Prefecting a thing in Ilvermorny?

They are; we're still doing some last minute determinations on how they're determined at Ilvermorny as they like... totally slipped our minds during the planning process.

[Grace Wilkinson]

You could make prefects 6th years and just ignore it for now

Is there a Story Points pool I’ve missed?

[Sylvain Leloup]

I volunteer for prefect

I have no clue what that does but I volunteer

[Rahvin]

Is there a Story Points pool I’ve missed?

You'll get them after Day One.

Is there going to be something like a class ranking, and academic rankings per house?

[Flession]

House Point Accumulation, for sure. I do like the idea of that too.

Lemme talk to that other guy.

Requesting Librarian.

Time for Alchemy Event:
Perception roll, can this be assisted? I'm assuming no, based on the wording, but in the off-chance I'm wrong I'd like to make sure before I botch it for my team!

[Flession]

It can not. You are essentially going for the ingredients while the other student is getting their station prepped up and ready.

[Sylvain Leloup]

We are building a sweat lodge!

What do we roll?

[Grace Wilkinson]

On a failure, add a challenge dice to your rolls for the remainder of the event

Does this mean upgrade one difficulty die, to add 1 red to the 3 purple ones?

[Flession]

Sorry, yes.

Upgrade one die.

What do we roll?

Go with survival. Hard difficulty, but I'll allow each of the PCs to add on a boost dice for assistance.

[Layla Smith]

Posted this in wrong part, so changed over to here. Sorry!

As each 'day' is over multiple ingame days, how does health/strain recover?

We're treating each "out of character" day - such as Day One or Day Two - as a single day for the purposes of recovering health and strain.

There may be some effects where wounds and strain cannot be recovered as normal; these will be noted in personal forums.

So even though ingame it's 55 days, we don't heal any strain or health in that time unless stated in a pf thread?

You can attempt the normal "end of encounter" strain recovery of a Simple Discipline or Cool check and have medical care attempted during that time. Otherwise, yes - strain and wounds will continue to build up until the end of it.

There's too much hassle to micromanaging how long exactly strain and wounds would remain otherwise.

For Flessy:

Roll a Charms check with the proper Wandless Magic penalties at a base easy difficulty. Any talents that would help in this may apply to reduce the penalties

Is there a post to say what this is? I'm being blind I think, but I can't see anything other than in the wandless magic merit which refers to different dice, nor does it say what the proper wandless magic penalty is.

[Layla Smith]

General request that's separate from the above; is it possible to have a list of spells that are generally known, and what skill they use? Like Lumos (charm) etc

There should be more on this later, since we're having a back and forth on something, but since you don't have that merit, it would hardly matter.

It's a daunting check as a core roll. Then you have the difficulty of the spell itself, which is easy (assuming you go that route). Upgrade the dice by the difficulty of the spell. In the instance of the first choice, a easy spell, you upgrade one dice, so it's 1 challenge die, and three difficulty die (or 1 red, 3 purple).

Is there an old ghost or any other paranormal phenomenon in any of the towers, wells, groves, etc.? I just want to step into some trouble.

So the average one (the second option) would be 2 red 3 purple?
