So, I have a question to put to all of you that may sound a little strange.

I assume you all know of Hawke, who I'm given to understand becomes the Champion of Kirkwall at some point.

Was Hawke a man or a woman?

>> Are you well?

Do you Dream of the magical hellhole known as Thedas? Then do I have a treat for you!

If you're sick and tired of the Darkspawn and blood mages and all the rest, then what you need is probably a drink. Or ten. Enough booze to help you forget, at least.

Anyway, I've rented a hall, and I figure we could all use a kegger. It'll be at [address and time]. Donations to help off-set the costs would be nice, but if not don't worry about it. Maybe we can even get a couple of games of Wicked Grace going on.

It had taken Anders a lot longer than he had been expecting to find a payphone, and once he found it, he was a little dismayed to find out just how much pay phones cost nowadays. Why they'd be so pricy now, when probably no one ever used payphones anymore, was beyond him. Still, the cost was definitely worth it. There was a small part of him that reminded him that he was a thirty-one year old surgeon and should probably be too mature for this, but hey, growing old didn't always mean growing up. Besides, the dreams had been causing him no small amount of stress, and he couldn't think of a better way to deal with that than messing with a Templar, even if it was possible said Templar didn't know it yet.

He called the number for the fire station, and waited until someone picked up. "Hello," Anders said, disguising his voice. "I'm Mr. Kingoff from FireRescue Magazine, and we would like to do a short interview with Captain Cullen about his recent promotion."

>> Guess who's me again?
>> If you don't get this right, I'll be very disappointed.
>> Anyway, I'm back from my camping trip.
>> Still up for a crepe date?

>> Hey there Mr. Ladypants.
>> Are you still a ladypants?
>> Anyway just checking in.
>> Wondering what you've dreamed up so far!
>> And also wondering if you want to get crepes again.
>> When this is all over anyway.

>> So, something interesting happened at the hospital today.
>> I don't know if I should show you in person or tell you through text.
>> I really want to tell someone right now though.

On the envelope, along with their addresses, is doodle of a kitten playing with a giant ball of yarn and this stamp. In the margins of the letter itself are various doodles of cats, including one, on the second page, of a cat shooting laser beams at a bunch of dogs.

I know all of you magic users have been waiting for this. By the way, if anyone can come up with a decent name, you'll get extra brownies at the first meeting. We've got a location (think 'underground wine cellar attached to a training dojo') and we're still working on construction but hey, why not get all the duckies in a row?

Speak up if you want to be attached to any of the following magic categories. You can go for more than one if you want. Eventually we'll probably have Heads of each Mini-Club but first I'll see who signs up where and then maybe let you duke it out in a vat of mud if there's more than one person vying for President of the Mini-Club.

Here's what we've got and some examples of each, no way is that the limit. It's just examples for better reference.

Abjuration (healing/protection)
Conjuration (summoning, teleportation, creation)
Divination (gaining information, magic sensing, extra perceptions, clairvoyance)
Enchantment (influencing people, mind reading, invocation, emotional manipulation)
Evocation (calling upon the forces of nature, animate/reanimation, energy manipulation, telekinesis)
Illusion (disappear/reappear, creating illusions that become real)
Necromancy (immortality, undead manipulation)
Potion Creation
Spell Casting (amplification of spells, mixing spells, spell negation)
Transmutation (transform living or non-living things, shapeshifting)
