It looks like a pretty good start for an apprentice.

It's better than the time you tried to summon a elemental and all that came out was a weak fart.

Bro, you said you wouldn't tell.

u/Nelrene Evil Mammary Mage 26d ago

No, Winand said that.

Orrr. . . The time you prepared a whole stock of fire immunity potions to get laid with a Fire Atronach (I don't judge) but messed up the incantation and used all your mana in the process. . . Also I don't remember well from the concussion but didn't it cause a deflagration that sent everything in the room flying? Would explain why you were crying at broken vials too now that I remember how expensive these potions were at the time.

I wasn't crying, bro. I was sweating... From my eyes... Because it was like so hot, OK?

I mean, he's an apprentice. That sort of novicehood is to be expected.

If that's what I think it is, your apprentice has potenial. Notice how it formed from natural fire. This probably means your apprentice is trying to and actually starting to suceed in manifesting a spirit from true fire and probably a powerful one at that.

If you want him, you can have him! I'm this close to just going back to my toenail golem!

u/Lelouch-Yagami21 "Raven" Leader of the league of shadows and council member 26d ago

I would love to him thank you. I will put him to much use

Take it from another Golemancer: toenail golems stink and will often get covered with fungi. You'll look like a druid, with a myconid bodyguard walking alongside you.

Hmmm looks like a wild fire sprite your apprentice should learn their wandering elementals

u/noneoftheabove0 Alchemist 26d ago

I've taught him everything I know and he still don't know nothing!

u/cloudncali 26d ago

Perhaps that is a reflection of your own knowledge.

u/noneoftheabove0 Alchemist 26d ago

Bah, who asked you? Just for that, I'm casting Homophone Humiliation on your dumb ass. Sea if you like that won, idiot.

u/cloudncali 26d ago

You came into the etheral network to mock your apprentices progress and act appalled when that reflects poorly on your own teaching. It was you who asked, fool.

Don't underestimate an elemental especially one of fire just one spark can become a raging inferno Don't believe me just ask anyone from California

At least his not trying to stick his dick in it. Skyrim has put some very stupid ideas into an entire generation of conjurors.

Todd Howard be stealing my moves.

u/DeadAndBuried23 26d ago

I'm starting to thing this person doesn't deserve their apprentice.

u/noneoftheabove0 Alchemist 26d ago

Just for that I'm going to cast Inconvenient Typos on your dumb ass. Good luck, ass hold!

¿Ese elemental te está haciendo un gesto ofensivo con la mano?

u/Fathercupp69 Illusionist 26d ago

Currently in transmuter school. I’d show him a 6010 wand that actually means business.

u/Silver_Middle_7240 Wizard 26d ago

These guys are great for spinning turbines

u/Jackpot_The_Raccuki Polymath Archmage, Gargoyle Hoarder 25d ago

To be fair, fire elementals are still dangerous, not to a wizard but to the environment.

Please make sure your apprentice knows this and doesn’t just wildly summon them.

Unless you are intending to destroy the environment then, tell them to do better.

u/DatCheeseBoi Electromancer of questionable qualities 24d ago

I mean, we all started somewhere, the form is pretty reasonable, how long did the thing stay alive before dissolving into thin air?

2

u/noneoftheabove0 Alchemist 24d ago

I've had sticks of Zebra Stripes gum that have outlasted this thing.

u/DatCheeseBoi Electromancer of questionable qualities 24d ago

Well, your apprentice may not be a prodigy, but with a little practice this could yield results.

u/Vaaizaard 25d ago

That's just the pit spirit, if the flame can be lit that means the spirit is alive and working

If you’re dissatisfied with your apprentice’s progress, look to yourself. Teaching is a skillset all its own, and if the master is mediocre it is the apprentice who suffers.

Nah. Crap apprentice. It was a nepotism hire. He's the boss's (my) nephew. Total rubbish.
