This could be tough from a play/roleplaying perspective, as in character, Peter is not going to refuse the opportunity to learn any magic that he encounters, but I don't really want to dump points into anything that crosses his path, especially when there is no path to the spells I'm actually interested in as a player. This is why I was pitching a modular ability for replicating spells he's studied.))

Yeah, I'm thinking I'm going to use ritual magic, where each college is its own skill, but instead of using prerequisite counts, the penalty is -2*required magery level. (so seek water would have no penalty)

For magic that he's picking up via in-play actions, the first point should be a result of time, not of standard point awards. Though Peter moves so fast its hard, because he wants to learn a skill in an hour. I think for this he'll have to be shown various techniques (spells) individually, but He'll get the initial point from this session.



This is the knowledge college by the way--- that's what Gregory knows, all the seek spells will be considered to be in it.
