| * You can convert {{gems>10D}} into a ??Skull Mentor?? for a **+14** bonus to Research ability, if you have a {{path>D2}} Mage for the job. This requires Construction 4, or up to 750 Research Points (depending on what you started with). | * You can convert {{gems>10D}} into a ??Skull Mentor?? for a **+14** bonus to Research ability, if you have a {{path>D2}} Mage for the job.

This requires Construction 6, or up to 2750 Research Points (depending on what you started with). Unfortunately, it's a bit quicker about getting the bearer killed than the Imp Familiar is, but you can trade it around if you're worried. | * You can convert {{gems>5F}} into a ??Lightless Lantern?? for a **+12** bonus to Research ability, if you have a {{path>F1}} Mage lying around.

| * If you don't feel like messing around with Items, you can convert {{gems>9D}} into a ??Revenant?? that has a Research ability of **7**. You'll still need that {{path>D2}} Mage, but Revenants are available at Enchantment 3, so they need only 350 Research Points at most. Unfortunately, other generic [[Summons]] have far-less-generous exchange rates, since they were intended to be used in battle. | * If you don't feel like messing around with Items, you can convert {{gems>9D}} into a ??Revenant?? that has a Research ability of **7**.
