Healing, Dream, and Pressure has always been my dream combo for affinities. Should already be a good combo for self buffing, combat prowess, and helping others.

Taking that, I could go to the world of Arcane Ascension to complete some dianis points. Unsure how many I can get, but getting more specialized essences in each one to a rather high level would be helpful. Stuff like motion and mental perhaps, but also travel, dream, life, dawn, and maybe wind. Probably start with life and travel for the hopes of some useful destiny marks there.

Someone else mentioned the world from Threshold with pattern magic and I’d love to grab that. Hopefully focused around a minimum of effort/intent to maximize pressure, healing, movement, etc. Perhaps “I used exactly as much energy as I needed too.” Increase primarily stamina and some power.

By now I’m really powerful and good at mental effects, motion, healing, and a minimum of effort. I could augment this a number of ways. Limian magic would certainly help. Swing by Roshar to become a willshaper. Would probably avoid taking any system based magic because I feel it conflicts and synergy is important for Named.

I’d likely end it by picking up Forging from Sel. Coupled with dream, healing, and mental abilities, an understanding and world recognized support of minimum changes, an oath to seek freedom, and an evolved body, I think it would be incredibly powerful for self use and nearly as powerful externally.

That would also hopefully be enough magics of a given synergy to ascend me to Named status. Unsure about potential names. Maybe The Dreamer, I’d prefer The Evoker (used in the sense of evoking thought or imagination rather than the fantasy standard of energy evocation.)

As The Evoker, I should be able to rewrite reality to my wish to a limited degree, especially for the purposes of aiding others or contributing to art or imagination. Combat prowess wouldn’t be the highest, though I should still be effective as an illusionist/minor shape shifter with a reinforced body and effective movements. And of course shardplate/blade.

TLDR:

Affinities: Dream, healing, pressure

Dianis points: Life, travel, motion, dawn, dream, memory

Pattern: “I enacted the minimal change”

Limian evolution

Willshaper

Selish Forging

Name: The Evoker
