What did Doug learn or gain in Valdemar?
Doug learned about node magic in Valdemar after finding a forgotten room of magical texts in the Collegium library. (Because of either his extradimensional origins, his field, or a combination of the two, he was mostly unaffected by Vanyel’s nation-wide compulsion spell.) He also gained the ability to speak and read Valdemaran like a native, thanks to a magical “accident” that also left a Herald with the ability to speak and read English as though she had grown up in L.A. in the late 20th Century.
