| - | In pen-and-paper play, adepts can learn the Centring Metamagic multiple times (MitS.73), applying it to an increasing breadth of Skill Groups. The MUD implementation blocks reselection of the Centring option during Initiation if it has previously been selected in Initiation more often than it has been bestowed by a Metamagic trainer. Since Centring is NERP, this makes no difference in MUD-play, but for PRuns alert your GM that you ought to have access to (up to) Initiate Grade picks from the following menu: | + | To learn Centering |
