after years of playing percy and spending hours upon hours researching engineering and guns and inventions taliesin finally said “fuck this” and just made his next 2 characters illiterate
Taliesin didn’t research shit, he didn’t need to, he’s a well-read fellow. He’s had centuries to compile a wide array of encyclopedic knowledge, right?
(Forgotten gem: in C1E96, Matt used the word “avarice”, and apparently nobody else knew what it means. Taliesin’s face was hilarious, like omg people, read a book). And he generally knows how stuff works.
People in Campaign 2 who DON’T know how stuff works and could use some research (but didn’t do any because they’re busy, plus it cramps their style):
- Sam (chemistry. it hasn’t come up and probably won’t, he just rolls to make stuff with Nott’s chemistry kit and lets Matt explain how it happened)

- Travis (sailing. that did come up. heh.)
