If you want to come from Stonehenge then consult Heirs to +Merlin for a vague idea of what the magi are like, or ask me. Ungulus +has no magi interested in taking further apprentices and only Iudicium +or Golias would be possible from Blackthorn; likewise the younger magi +at Libellus or Nigrasaxa are too young to have been your parens (they +are loosely from the graduating class one or two tribunals ahead of +you respectively, as is Prelum in Blackthorn). Edward himself is +available to have been someone's parens. Alternatively if you're from +outside Stonehenge then Edward needs to have had some reason to invite +you -- this is probably more likely for neighbouring tribunals whom he +might have gone recruiting at. + + +Companions +---------- + +Some potential companions are available in the covenant structure who +might have been around for a while, or any plausible idea works. + +* Parish priest (St Peter's) +* Senior rabbi +* Turb captain and/or drill sargeant + +An ungifted redcap might be appropriate too as the Mercere house is +colocated. They have a full compliment currently but would probably +be willing to show some ropes to a new journeyman. + + +Grogs +----- + +Many grogs will in general just be represented by a name and +personality traits until they actually become personized enough to +need stats; but feel free to create grogs if you're inspired. Notably +each junior magi will have one assigned personal grog (think +valet/maid/housekeeper/etc); if you want to have brought one with you +when you came to Cambridge you might want to stat them up (and then +hand them off to someone else/the pool -- it's much more fun if these +interactions involve two different players :)).
