INITIATION INITIATE Usage: INITIATE Initiation is a magician's way of advancement, whether the magician be a shaman, mage, or adept. When your character is initiated, their magic rating and grade increase by one. When you reach the requirements for an initiation you can use the INITIATE command to enter the initiation menu and choose how you wish to spend your initiation. You can either increase your magic and gain a metamagic technique, increase your magic and change your astral signature, or shed any geas you currently have. The cost for an initiation is 5 plus the desired grade times 3. So if you wished to initiate to grade 2 it would cost you (5+2)*3=21. There is also an additional cost of nuyen and a requirement of TKE. Requirements are: TKE NUYEN Grade 1: 0 50000 " 2: 100 75000 " 3: 200 125000 " 4: 400 225000 " 5: 600 425000 " 6+: +200 825000 Nuyen costs do not continue to increase beyond 825000, but karma and TKE requirements do.
