Sweet! For my next day; I'll have Mike use the Skill Scroll he has first before doing anything else. Then he'll go to school, then kendo club. Then he'll grind on Zombies for awhile using his new skill (also while in Zandaka). For his last action of the day, I'll have him go home and try to create a skill that lets him summon a katana made out of solid mana. 

IC justification: He's already made a list of skills from video games to try and learn (Meditate was on that list) and the 'Summon Weapons' from Skyrim is on that list
