Human mammary tumor virus | Human mammary tumor virus (HMTV) is a B-type retrovirus that is closely related to the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV). The existence of this virus was suspected for decades but nucleotide sequences identifying a unique virus in human breast cancer tumors were not confirmed until 2001. Viral particles were isolated several years later. Evidence for a role of HTMV/MMTV in human breast cancer has recently been reviewed.

Abstract ::: This thesis presents the author's experience with diagnostic intraocular fine needle aspiration biopsy in 18 patients with a suspected metastatic choroidal or ciliary body tumor. The author has reviewed the literature on biopsy of intraocular tumors and has specified what he believes to be valid indications for diagnostic biopsy of posterior uveal tumors. He has evaluated the accuracy, limitations, and complications of diagnostic fine needle aspiration biopsy in this series and others, and he has suggested methods for improving the recovery of sufficient cells for cytologic diagnosis and lessening the risks of tumor cell seeding during the biopsy. The author has concluded that fine needle aspiration biopsy appears to be a relatively safe, generally reliable means of establishing the pathologic diagnosis of a choroidal or ciliary body tumor in highly selected patients suspected of having metastatic cancer. In spite of its apparent safety and reliability, however, the author has cautioned against the routine use of fine needle aspiration biopsy in patients with posterior uveal tumors since its long-term safety has not been established. The author has suggested that diagnostic fine needle aspiration biopsy of posterior uveal tumors be performed only in medical centers where there can be input from and cooperation among ophthalmologists, ophthalmic pathologists, and cytopathologists who are experienced in the diagnosis of intraocular malignancies. | Objective To assess the effectiveness of fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), with and without immunohistochemistry (IHC), in the management of solid intraocular tumors. Study Design Thirty-three consecutive adults undergoing FNAB of suspected intraocular tumors were studied. Clinical, cytologic and histologic diagnoses were correlated. The positive predictive value, sensitivity and specificity of FNAB for detecting malignancy, the effect of HIC on the final cytologic diagnosis and the number of patients in whom clinical management was altered as a result of cytologic evaluation were determined. Results The positive predictive value was 96% with and 93% without adjunct IHC. The sensitivity and specificity of FNAB for detecting malignancy were 96% and 83%, respectively, with IHC. Without IHC, the sensitivity was unaltered, but the specificity was 67%. IHC confirmed the morphologic diagnosis in 75% of cases, made a diagnosis in 12.5% and changed a malignant diagnosis from carcinoma to melanoma in 6% of cases. The planned management was changed by the FNAB findings in 24% of patients. In 3 patients (9%), IHC was essential for diagnosis and management. No patients exhibited local tumor dissemination or recurrence associated with the biopsy. Conclusion FNAB is a safe, sensitive and specific method of establishing a tissue diagnosis in a subset of patients with solid intraocular tumors. The routine use of immunohistochemical staining increases the diagnostic utility of the technique and may change clinical management. | s2orc_abstract_citation | 36 |

Players who will get the biggest upgrades (or downgrades) in FM14 | Hello fellow FMers. I thought it'd be interesting to talk about which players will get the biggest increases/decreases in stats or potential im FM14 compared to to FM13. For example if a player has had a huge upturn in form or breakthrough season, or developed beyond all expectations. Likewise if a player is highly rated or has insane potential yet has not lived up to those ratings.

Restore your Wallet with Seed Phrase Twice? | Hi,

I have imported my wallet to **Temple** using my **seed phrase**. But I used a **password generator** for the password and for some reason my password manager **did not save it**...
Can I safely redo the "**Restore wallet with seed phrase**"?
I'm sorry but I don't understand any of this:
A locked wallet **already exists**. (what is a locked wallet?, Why is that important?)
Importing a new one will **destroy the existing one**. (What does destroy mean in this context?)

Looking for a mascara recommendation as someone who always gets nasty mascara under-eye smudge | Hello there! :)
I \*always\* get mascara smudge under my eyes. I do not have deep-set eyes, if anything I have the opposite. I've only ever tried waterproof formulas.
I get blurry/smoky smudges like this:
As opposed to clear/distinct marks like this:
I do not excessively moisturize my eye area. In fact the only skincare I use in the AM is sunscreen, and I do not apply it directly under my eyes. And I don't have an oily eye area.
Mascara is the only makeup I wear, so if I have to spend a bit, its worth it to me.
Some mascaras I've used in the past that have given me smudging:
\-Diorshow Waterproof
\-Better Than Sex Waterproof
\-Lancome Definicils Waterproof
As far as what I'm looking for in a mascara, I'm not looking for super volumizing, lengthening, curling, etc.Something that will look natural and not smudge would be great.
Thank you so much for reading! | reddit_title_body | 421 |
Pitfalls in the surgical treatment of moyamoya disease. Operative techniques for refractory cases. | Eleven cases of moyamoya disease refractory to indirect non-anastomotic revascularization, including encephalomyosynangiosis in two, encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis in seven, and encephalomyoarteriosynangiosis in two, are described. The patients suffered from recurrent cerebral ischemic symptoms, and further operative intervention, including superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis and intracranial omental transplantation, was performed. The choice of operative maneuver depended on the availability of scalp arteries and on the nature of the ischemic symptoms. Although indirect non-anastomotic revascularization procedures have the advantage of technical ease and most patients respond to these procedures alone, there are some patients like the 11 presented here who are not cured by such procedures. In such cases, direct anastomotic revascularization is necessary for the prevention of stroke. | s2orc_title_abstract | 116 |

Book Recommendations to Learn WordPress 101 | Hello. I know with how fast things change, and all the online free resources, people usually recommend to just use online tutorials, but unfortunately I just learn much better by starting with a solid book, so I'd like to ask for recommendations.
I've learned the basics of web design (HTML, CSS, pinch of JS) from a book, but I don't know PHP and I've never used WordPress before. I know beginner-level coding with Python, and that's it for programming experience. I'm interested in resources that help me to understand the basics of WordPress properly as a whole, rather than a step 1, 2, 3 tutorial holding my hand without truly teaching me concepts.
Of course I'd prefer the more up-to-date the better, but if it's a little out-of-date but the core material is still good, I'm interested in such books too.

THE ANATOMY AND RELATIONSHIPS OF HAASIOPHIS TERRASANCTUS, A FOSSIL SNAKE WITH WELL-DEVELOPED HIND LIMBS FROM THE MID-CRETACEOUS OF THE MIDDLE EAST | Abstract The fossil snake species Haasiophis terrasanctus Tchernov, Rieppel, Zaher, Polcyn, and Jacobs, 2000, from the early Upper Cretaceous of the Middle East, is described and illustrated, following a review of the current debate on snake relationships and origins. The description and discussion presented here adds important detail to the knowledge of this taxon and its phylogenetic significance beyond the limited account presented in the original description of Haasiophis. The species is remarkable in that it shows the skull of a relatively advanced (i.e., macrostomatan) snake, yet preserves well-developed hind limbs. The hind limb includes a femur, tibia, fibula, astragalus, calcaneum, distal tarsal four, and remains of four metatarsals and two phalanges. Haasiophis cannot be considered a juvenile specimen of Pachyrhachis. The implications of the presence of well-developed hind limbs in Haasiophis, Pachyrhachis, and Podophis for the cladistic analysis of the phylogenetic interrelationships of these f... | s2orc_title_abstract | 205 |

Retrofit of Artificially Perforated Shear Wall in Existing Dominant Wall Structure | A series of three shear wall specimens were tested under constant axial stress and reversed cyclical lateral loading in order to evaluate the seismic retrofit that had been proposed for the shear wall with the opening induced by remodeling. One of these specimens was tested in the as-built condition and the other two were retrofitted prior to testing. The retrofit involved the use of carbon fiber sheets and steel plates (a thickness of 3mm) over the entire face of the wall. The test results showed that the failed specimens had shear fractures and that two different types of retrofitting strategies had different effects on the strengths of each specimen. | s2orc_title_abstract | 229 |

I(15M) feel like a ruined my family after they adopted me. | I(15M) was a Korean orphan that my family who is all white and American adopted me when I was 5. I didnt speak any English I was maybe able to say hello. My mom still talks about to this day how much I cried when I got to America with my translator who stayed with us for 3 months. They spent 100 hundreds of thousands of dollars just to get me. Just for me to feel like I dont belong.

Planar and nonplanar ion acoustic shock waves in relativistic degenerate astrophysical electron-positron-ion plasmas | We have studied the propagation of ion acoustic shock waves involving planar and non-planar geometries in an unmagnetized plasma, whose constituents are non-degenerate ultra-cold ions, relativistically degenerate electrons, and positrons. By using the reductive perturbation technique, Korteweg–deVries Burger and modified Korteweg–deVries Burger equations are derived. It is shown that only compressive shock waves can propagate in such a plasma system. The effects of geometry, the ion kinematic viscosity, and the positron concentration are examined on the ion acoustic shock potential and electric field profiles. It is found that the properties of ion acoustic shock waves in a non-planar geometry significantly differ from those in planar geometry. The present study has relevance to the dense plasmas, produced in laboratory (e.g., super-intense laser-dense matter experiments) and in dense astrophysical objects. | s2orc_title_abstract | 269 |

Skype takes forever to load on Windows 7 x64. | Hello, /r/techsupport.
I'm having a weird issue, and I was hoping you could help. Before I say anything though, let me get my system specs out of the way.
**Netbook model**: Acer Aspire One 722 Series (AO722)
**CPU**: AMD C-60 APU 1Ghz (Dual core, 64 bit)
**GPU**: AMD Radeon HD6290 (Part of the C-60 APU architecture)
**RAM**: 2GB of DDR3 (memtest86 shows that the RAM is good)
**OS**: Windows 7 Ultimate (Service pack 1) 64 bit
Now, on to my issue.
Skype has been acting up lately, freezing after I put in my login info and hit log in. I get stuck at This screen. It may take anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes for my Skype to load. During that time, a process named "ielowutil.exe" uses as much as 80% of my CPU. I am not sure what caused this, as no Windows Updates or any new drivers or programs were installed when this started happening a month ago.
**ANY ideas or help is appreciated.**
EDIT: I should probably mention that I run CCLeaner daily, use Smart Defrag 2 biweekly, and use Panda Cloud Antivirus Free. Not sure if any of that is relevant, but in the case it is, now you know.
**SOLUTION:**
I solved the problem by installing a different version of Skype. I used a beta version from here Although I'm sure using an older version would have the same effect.

Why do so many conservatives romanticize "the good old days?" | I've noticed that so many conservatives have this strange idea of how things used to be. For example, Roaming Millennial has this weird view that college educated women that desire careers isn't as good of a lifestyle as being a stay at home mom and she says that she wants to move the culture back to those values. One thing I noticed is everytime I watch videos on YouTube about how people in the past were, there is always people in the comments section glorifying the behavior of these people and talking about how they wish things were still that way while ignoring how badly black people were fucked over at the time and that the 1960's counter culture was largely people tired of that lifestyle. They glorify how women used to behave and then act like everything change when the fire nation, I mean feminists, attacked and fucked up our culture. It's so strange to me because while we definitely have problems today, at least minorities have more freedom. They just ignore all of the bad. Why do they do this?

With the way the portrayal and acceptance of erotic scenes and sex in movies has evolved in the last decades, do you think there will be a time in the future where big budget movies including porn scenes will be a normal thing? | I'm serious. I feel like western culture has gotten so accustomed, even desensitized, to sex, compared to, let's say, half a century ago (not just necessarily in movies, but in our every day life).
Right now we live at a time where both great movies and porn coexist, but never share the same screen. I know that ("half") showing sex scenes has become a natural phenomenon in movies, but my title is talking about full on pornography.
I believe one of the biggest discrepancy between the two mediums is the connection to the protagonist, or the lack thereof in porn. Imagine full feature movies that lead to a porn scene at the end after a two hour build up.
I'm not here to judge whether that's a good or bad thing, but I think it'll open a door to creativity and ways of shooting movies (and porn) that we have never seen before. Do you think this will happen sometime in the next few decades or centuries? I feel like, in any aspect of life, conservatism always looses to progressivism eventually, and there will always be people pushing in this directions.

A Performance Evaluation of Preload Switching Spindle. | The following deals with the static and dynamic specification of the motor integrated spindle. This spindle unit has a fixed position and constant pressure preload switching mechanism operated using hydraulic pressure. With respect to the static specification, measurement of the static rigidity and natural frequency confirms that preload switching occurs. The performance of the rotating spindle was evaluated using a fixed position preload for low speeds provided high rigidity, while using a constant pressure preload provided sufficient high speed performance. A bench test was carried out to evaluate temperature and runout characteristics and further tests were performed in an actual machining process. Both tests showed that the switching of the spindle's preload provided sufficient performance. | s2orc_title_abstract | 342 |
Instrumental Variables Approach to Estimating the Continuing Effect of HIV/AIDS Epidemic on Global Development | The world has experienced different forms of epidemics outbreaks: cholera including VHF, H1N1, & TB, SAS, INFLUENZA, SWINE FLU, meningitis, which impact affect nations' income. Yet the case of HIV-AIDS remains a chronic albatross around the neck of the globe with its ramifying effects. Ironically, the HIV/AIDS epidemic has targeted mainly adults and therefore impacted negatively on human capital accumulation by reducing its productivity. The burden of any disease, or the loss of health capital, has had a powerful influence on the economic activity of a country at different levels of income, especially when it affects the labour force. There is plenty of evidence that the HIV/AIDS epidemic has deeply affected humankind for more than three decades. | s2orc_title_abstract | 112 |

Plants: novel developmental processes. | Plants represent a diverse group of organisms that have unique reproductive, developmental, and physiological processes. Although morphologically simple, plants have molecular genetic processes that are equivalent in complexity to those found in animals. Sophisticated gene transfer procedures, transposon mutagenesis in homologous and heterologous plants, and development of model organisms such as Arabidopsis permit almost any gene that is associated with an observable phenotype to be isolated and studied. These advances, coupled with general advances in molecular biology, now make it possible to dissect the molecular and cellular events responsible for controlling plant-specific processes. | s2orc_title_abstract | 0 |

A Flexible and Robust Solution for Automated 384-well HDAC Profiling | Histone deacetylases (HDACs) remove acetyl groups from e-N-acetyl lysine residues on histones and other proteins. Acetyl group removal serves to increase the positive charge of histone tails, thus encouraging binding between histones and the DNA backbone and preventing transcription. HDACs are implicated in many human diseases, including cancer; making them an increasingly popular drug discovery research target. Here we monitor the deacetylation activity of multiple Class I and II HDAC enzymes in an automated fashion. Validation and pharmacology results demonstrate how the fluorescent assay technology and automated instrumentation may be used together to assess enzyme kinetics and inhibition. | s2orc_title_abstract | 30 |

Concerning weapon types and RS - what is important and what is not? | I am getting to a point my inventory is of okay expansion (160 slots) and I don't mind expanding it more but I think mostly I can clear up space with all of this "might be useful some day in a very specific situation" equipment I have.
So I would like to know peoples opinion on different weapon types and its importance of realm synergy. For example the one I know for sure is with swords where it is a very good thing to have swords from as many realms as you can. Its quite a versatile weapon and good for retaliate. But what about some of these other ones that are less popular weapons and maybe more specialized. I mean do I really need a claw for every realm, probably not but I have hung onto it all because that one time where I'd be like "yes I need this" I would hate not to have it.
I guess in general as well it would be good to know the RS to have. I assume probably VII is good to have as many weapons as possible since I started playing they already have had the most events of all (and already people say zack is another one coming up). What are other realms I should have good variety for? And what are the realms I probably don't need very much and can do with a very small selection of RS equipment?

New type of machine and the possibility of controlling Talanah | Edit: In the title I meant PLAYING AS TALANAH sorry if it was misleading
Link to the tweet I’m referring to:
I honestly think the black machines have a good chance of appearing in the forbidden west and I would love for them to because it would add a new and interesting gameplay mechanic that if you kill a certain machine (like a sawtooth) then an upgraded version will start to spawn and it would be harder to kill. But the most interesting part to me was that in the third image in the tweet Aloy is giving Talanah something that we can’t see yet. I think she gave Talanah a focus. I think this is especially possible because in the first image of the tweet Talanah mentions that she doesn’t know how Aloy always knows what ammo to use, obviously referring to her ability to use the focus so well. Pairing this with the fact that in many promotional arts for the game (like Guerrila’s Twitter banner) Talanah is clearly featured, Talanah got her own little comic series, and that there’s been rumors of a co-op mechanic for the sequel, I wouldn’t be incredibly surprised if Talanah was playable in some way in Horizon: Forbbiden West. But that’s just my interpretation of things. | reddit_title_body | 598 |

Is this the weakest "leading actor" oscar nominee pool there's ever been? | The five nominees are:
Leo in The Revenant
Matt Damon in the Martian
Michael Fassbender in Steve Jobs
Eddie Redmayne in The Danish Girl
Bryan Cranston in Trumbo
Every single option feels like they would be 4th-5th string options any other year. At the very least I can say Dicaprio and Fassbender's performances belong in a oscar nominee conversation, even though they aren't spectacular. Cranston is there to add credibility from his Breaking Bad fame. Eddie Redmayne's performance is Oscar bait that would only make it on a weak year. And what the hell is "Matt Damon in space" doing there? What was special about that performance. You know who got snubbed? Johnny Depp. Even though Black Mass was a mediocre movie, his performance was good enough to be on this terrible list. No doubt Leo gets his Oscar this year. | reddit_title_body | 199 |

Making Model Steam Engines | I may have made a mistake on my earlier review of "Building Simple Model Steam Engines" as this is the book ("Making Model Steam Engines") for which I earlier wrote. My aplogies!
The author, Stan Bray may well be an Englishman, but he gives all of the dimensions in both Metric and Imperial measurements (which is a great relief to us "Yanks"). He writes in a very consise yet easily understandable manner.
The book is also illustrated with both photos and working drawings to build engines, boilers, crankshafts, flywheels, and all sorts of neat parts from scratch.
You need not own a complete machine shop to build some of the simpler engines, however a lathe will aid your efforts considerably.
Mr. Bray shows how to build burners, boilers and several types of steam driven engines from the most simple to a twin cylinder. The last chapter deals with building a Verticle Boilered Locomotive from the wheels up.
This is a very interesting book, not only for the model maker but perhaps also for anyone interested in how older technology actually worked.
One last note: These "models" are actually small "toys", meaning that this stuff is small and intricate.
All in all, this is a very good book and I recommend it highly. | amazon_reviews | 237 |

Nonfiction **|** Weddings/Self-Help **|** 47,288 words **|** May 12, 2018 **|** $8.99 e-book/$12.99 paperback
##Blurb
Wedding Planning For the Busy Feminist is filled with practical, funny advice from real brides, grooms and vendors about how to plan your dream wedding on a budget. It's also an empowering survival guide that examines how modern women feel conflicted about outdated traditions and expensive social media fantasies but kinda want the perfect wedding anyway. With tons of tips, interviews and funny stories, the book is about everything from dress shopping and confusing caterer gratuities to Pinterest anxiety and managing your partner's role in the process. Wedding planning can be stressful, so I'm here to make it easier - with advice like "nothing sexes up a ceremony like a hot usher" and true stories about what to do when your Maid of Honor drops out because of WrestleMania. The book dives into wedding planning, wedding budgets, dresses, wedding timelines, family drama, self-care, elopements, DIY decor, receptions, ceremonies, vows, speeches, changing your name, bachelor parties and bachelorette parties, photographers, themes, hashtags, favors and more. The appendix alone has over 300 bridal gown designers, accessory designers, plus size designers, decor inspiration, resale sites, invitations, favors, wedding apps and license information. I won't push you to include or exclude any particular tradition - my mantra is "you do you!"
##A note from the author
When I was asked to serve as Maid of Honor for my best friend and my sister at the same time - while going to seven other weddings in two years - I accidentally became a wedding expert.
Getting back to my roots as a blogger, I decided to write a guide of tips, interviews and jokes about modern wedding culture. No, I'm not engaged or married (my dad says this is because I'm "focused on my career!"), but that's what gives me an outside perspective. Think of me as your honorary, unbiased Maid of Honor.

Shape Control of Tensegrity Airfoils | This paper develops and applies tensegrity concepts to the design of shape-controllable 2D airfoils. After introducing tensegrity systems and dynamics, a tension-driven shape control strategy is outlined, and a method of generating variable complexity tensegrity airfoils is developed. The described shape control strategy is then applied to the task of transforming a given tensegrity airfoil from some initial shape to a desired final shape. Results show the generation of tensegrity systems that approximate various NACA 4series airfoil profiles, and simulation results demonstrate successful shape control of both symmetric and asymmetric tensegrity airfoils. | s2orc_title_abstract | 154 |

Not living up to my potential? enjoying the comfy life, how wrong is it? | hello all.
first i'd like to say that i guess this saying, not living up to my potential, is sending a different message to each one of us. so i guess what i'm trying to say is, i feel like i can work more in almost any field in my life and be better, i feel like i'm a person who really has a great potential to have an impact, to make a difference, to be significant. but i'm enjoying more to be less stressed.
i'm 23, doing a degree in neuroscience, my avg if around 85/100, so it's equivalent to 3.0 or B. i'm currently living with BF. the main thing is, i was in an abusive home until i was 18 or so, that's when i stopped being in touch with my dad, and when i was 21 i went to therapy, started living by myself and dealing with past traumas. i'm always trying to deal with a habitual stressful thinking, and am currently living what it's like not to fear everyday or to be super stressed out about routine, daily decisions. all in all, life is good, i'm happy for where i am.
however, i feel like maybe i'm not pushing myself enough, maybe i'm getting used to living a stress-free life and therefore not taking as many pushes forward as i should. i love my degree, it's very diverse, and i really feel myself learning and getting smarter because of it, but also i feel like this degree is not challenging me enough. i could be pushed to be greater' i know i can be better or should i say - have better results, better resume.
i guess that the main issue - i know i can be more extreme, be better and more outstanding at what i do, but i oh so much enjoy living life with a small amount of stress, without needing to - after years on end - push myself to the limit everyday. i'm constantly stuck between 'it's ok, enjoy the now, and it's not like you're not doing anything at all - you're getting good grades, you're finding yourself and your passions, there's no real need for you to be pushed to your limit when you can just relax, and let life drive by happily' and 'but i can be better'. i also feel like a quitter when i say stuff like 'i want to live an easy life'. i guess i want to say it, but i know a greater person shouldn't aspire for a comfortable life.
any advises? on how to push myself more, or live up to my potential, or whatever? on how i would feel in the future for current decisions?
thank you for reading :)
TLDR - enjoying a convenient life after years of mental abuse, but also feeling like i shouldn't aspire to being comfortable, i should live up my potential because i'm smart and capable, not sure which voice is right. | reddit_title_body | 600 |
Such a Shame | "Such a Shame" is a song written by Mark Hollis for the English band Talk Talk's second album It's My Life (1984). It was released as the album's second single and went on to becoming a top 10 hit across Europe.
Overview
"Such a Shame" was inspired by Luke Rhinehart's The Dice Man, one of composer Mark Hollis' favourite books. When asked what drove him to respond to Rhinehart's book, Hollis replied, "A good book, not a lifestyle I'd recommend."
The song was released as the album's second single in the spring of 1984, with the cover art designed by James Marsh. Some pressings of the single came with an additional 7" release The Talk Talk Demos which included three songs recorded in June 1981: "Candy", "Talk Talk" and "Mirror Man". Writing in the NME, Richard Cook slated the song, describing it as "faceless regret coaxed from lurex trashcan."
"Such a Shame" became a big hit in continental Europe in 1984 and 1985, reaching the top 10 in several countries, including number 1 in Switzerland. It was their third number 1 single after the remixed version of the song "Talk Talk" which topped the South African charts in 1983 and the single "It's My Life" which was number 1 in the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play in 1984. In the US, "Such a Shame" entered the Billboard Hot 100, and was a top 20 hit in the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play. The single entered the top 10 in the pan-European singles airplay chart. It only reached number 49 in the UK.
The song was featured in a European TV commercial for the French car Peugeot 205 in the 1980s. In 1990, the single was re-issued to promote the compilation Natural History: The Very Best of Talk Talk.
Following Hollis' death in early 2019, "Such a Shame" charted at number 5 on Digital Song Sales in France and number 44 on Back Catalogue Singles in the Flemish region of Belgium.

Cultivating Magic Plants in a Living World | I'm playing a Ghoran in a living world comprised of friends and friends of friends and so on, and my personal group has made their own company where our buildings and characters live in the setting.
Now to be clear we are all crafters, but my gimmick as a crafter in the company is cultivating magic plants meaning I can make any spell into a fruit. I'm sure barely anyone has heard of magic plants as there is barely any information on them besides the formula, few rules, and 21 specific plants dedicated to magic plants with their own special properties. I've made personal suggestions in the living world for modifications to the plants as the specific plants are inconsistent. So I wanted to make a post talking about what spells seem best for this.
Quick rundown of base rules:
* Formula is (Spell Level\*Caster Level\*2000\*Number of Yields\*Seasons (4 Max for year round)) for full price, Crafting is half of said price and goes 1k per 1 week
* Crafted yields only stay fresh on plants for 1 week before spoiling
* Crafted yields being spoiling after 1 day when harvested
* The eater is considered both caster and target of the spell effect, Yields can be thrown or used in a different manner
* GMs Ruling states I follow normal crafting rules for cultivating magic plants
Since magic plants can use any spell I've been going through spell lists for lvl 1 spells and thinking what would be interesting, fun, and just not game breaking. Because imagine a limited wish tree. (Granted I need the money for it)
TLDR: Plant man is making magic plants using spells to make magic fruit to eat and throw | reddit_title_body | 569 |
Good, quick read on Midway | There are certainly longer and more detailed books on Midway, but for a short, fun book on Midway, you can't beat Incredible Victory.
