Here is an invasive idea I had last night that would not let me sleep until I made note of it on my tablet. I am posting this under the main Rolemaster board since it could be applied in any version of RM.
The Way of PowerEspecial Note: This is a WIP (work in progress). When something seems to not make sense or seems incomplete, just remember that this is a WIP. Additionally, remember that I just thought this up last night and formatted it for posting while wating for work to start.You must master the 8 of the 3 in order to find the 1.
Body | | Soul | | Spirit |
Speech | | Thought | | Anger |
Hearing | | Study | | Meditation |
Smell | | Fasting | | Prayer |
Taste | | Confession | | Guidance |
Sight | | Submission | | Solitude |
Motion | | Worship | | Laughter |
Action | | Service | | Celebration |
Sleep | | Love | | Simplicity |
The Three MysteriesThese are just some quick thoughts.
Mystery of the Body: First master the Speech of the unspeakable, Hear the silent, Smell the odorless, Taste that which is masked, and to See the unseen. Mastering Motion is used to create the desired Action. For restoration, Sleep.
Mystery of the Soul: One must first have Thought in order to Study. Fasting is used for cleansing, Confession for admittance, and Submission for (?something). Learn Worship to discover what is right. Service to others for fulfillment. And Love for the greatest joy.
Mystery of the Spirit: Learn control over one's Anger. Learning Meditation allows one to discover proper Prayer for Guidance. Solitude is used to learn Laughter in regard to all things before one can have Celebration and learning Simplicity.
Noticing the TriadsThis is just my noticing how things are lining up into triads. The two that stumped me are the two elemental triads.
States of Matter | | Solid | | Liquid | | Gas |
States of Energy | | Matter | | Fluid | | Energy |
States of Human | | Body | | Soul | | Spirit |
States of ?? | | Ice | | Water | | Fire |
States of ?? | | Earth | | Air | | Light |
Items Received with each LevelI have not completely thought of how to tie this in with the 8 of the 3 above, but I'll be contemplating it. However, using the basic colors I listed, there are 8. Just need a third item type to fully match up.
Color | | Metal Link | | Spherical Gem | | (?something) |
Red | | Iron | | Ruby | | ? |
Orange | | Tin | | ? | | ? |
Yellow | | Gold | | Topaz | | ? |
Green | | Copper | | Emerald | | ? |
Blue | | Cobalt | | Sapphire | | ? |
Violet | | ? | | Amethyst | | ? |
Black | | Lead | | Obsidian | | ? |
White | | Silver | | Quartz | | ? |
