The Earthdawn Advancement Table

The table below shows the cost for purchasing talent advancements and circle training in Earthdawn. Circle training is paid for with silver pieces, but all other advances are paid for with Legend Points. In order to advance in circle, you must have three more talents than the circle you want, that are ranked as high as the circle you wish to gain and at least one of those talents must be of the circle below that.

Circle 2: 5 Talents ranked 2

Circle 3: 6 Talents Ranked 3, one must be of Circle 2

Circle 4: 7 Talents ranked 4, one must be of Circle 3

Circle 5: 8 Talents ranked 5, one must be of Circle 4

You must also pay for training and this cost is based on the circle you are training to reach. Circle advancement training is also the only time you can buy talent knacks.

Talents have a limit of rank 15. Skills are limited to rank 10. Trainers typically require 25 silvers for each rank in a skill.

You can also buy advancements to your base attributes, but you can only buy one advance per circle, and no more than five advances in any attribute. If you pass through a circle without buying an attribute advance, the opportunity is lost.

Other sources of Legend Points in Earthdawn:

You can sell your journal to the Great Library of Throal. They usually pay a sum of silver equal to one-tenth of the Legend Points you earned in the adventures described. Because others will read your journal and learn of your achievements, everyone in it also gets a bonus of 5% of the Legend Points they earned in the adventures described. The journal must be written from the point of view of your character, and I, your GM, must receive a copy.

If you compose original verse describing the legendary exploits of your character or group, that will also grant you a Legend Point bonus of 1.5% each time you gain a new Legendary Status. The verses must be original and not mention anything that does not fit the setting. I don't care if you crib your melody from modern sources, though -- anything from Waltzing Matilda to The Ballad of the Green Berets to Soundgarden is fine by me. All such journals and verse will be posted on the campaign wiki.
