Whispers are spreading around the Djelibeybi bazaar of a new resident in the Hashishim guild - apparently an artist of some kind.

Magic wands have had a bit of an overhaul. The chances and consequences of backfires have been tweaked to take better account of skills, and the messages have been clarified a little. In addition, backfires on certain wands should now be more interesting!
