The Best of Duskruin Shopping for Spring 2023

ITEM	RECOMMENDATIONS FROM ADVENTURERS	SHOP
Fighting Fan	Traiva found the flavor on these fans at The Sparrow's Dance an AMAZING thing. "Why swing a boring weapon when you can punch with a fan? The special parry messaging is also fun, and the special attacks are incredibly handy."	Sparrow's Dance
Survivalist's Kit	"Survivalist's Kits from the Herbal Huntsman are amazing, and a total boon to those who carry around a lot of herbs," Cylnthia raved. "Not only do they stack herbs, but also act as normal containers so you can put even more herbs in them... and the herb stacks only weigh as much as one normal set of herb! Time to lose a bunch of carried weight with these things! (Bonus: they're on the affordable side of things, so super worth the cost!)"	The Herbal Huntsman
Compartmentalized Quiver	Compartmentalized Quivers from Bundle Up are great for rotating arrow bundles of differing tips and flares. TristTram added sadly, "I only wish I could fully unlock it!" Keep saving, there's next time!	Bundle Up
Illusion Prop PLUS, a Spell Prep Prop, Too!	Cylnthia bought the wool-looped aged gold bell shaped like a round rolton at Be Warez. She explained, "Illusion props are awesome. Spell prep props are awesome. Roltons are awesome. Now you can have all three at once, for just a wee price of 15k bloodscrip! Also, having a rolton following you around, bumping into your leg constantly, bleating at you constantly... perfect for the Year Of The Rolton 5123!"	Be Warez
Survivalist's Kit	Xess is a fan of the new Suirvalist's kit at the Herbal Huntsman. He told us, "It is beyond amazing in both the new quality of life changes as well as the amazing utility!" Another happy shopper left shouting to everyone that the kit saved them over 12 pounds of weight!	The Herbal Huntsman
a shiny gold coin pin	The a shiny gold coin pin for sale at Spellbound has 20 charges a day of Arcane Decoy. Obelin recommended, "It is incredibly useful, especially in capped hunting grounds and Reim. A spectral servant has dispel in their cloak of shadows? No problem, lose Arcane Decoy instead of Strength or Heroism! Get it before Spellbound updates!"	Spellbound
Alcohol Still	Whisker loved finding the Alcohol still at Be Still My Hops and wrote, "Finally, we a cooking tool that covers all the basic food groups in one sip!"	Be Still My Hops
Realm Weapon	Toxyrox found the Realms Weapons at Rock Solid to be a Great value. One weapon with just the right flare you need, no matter where you travel to hunt. Imagine that!	Rock Solid
Survivalist's Kit	"This is the herb kit of the future," Dendum started out. "it juices, it combines, it turns your crazy tarts and sticky bundles into one nice neat dose. If you pay extra you can even find a use for that survival skill. Good for weight management and it still works as a normal bag! The price is right as well!"	The Herbal Huntsman
Kraet Styles chiton **	Traiva gave everyone a heads up about those Kraet Style chitons at Pinned and Pleated. "Once the weather warms up, the chitons are wonderfully loose and flowy, perfect for keeping cool in the heat! (This is also the last run of the shop, so you KNOW you want to stock up!)"	Pinned and Pleated
Magic Marker	Leafiara is talking those Magic Markers up again, "Already a great item for sorting and identifying your small statues and quartz orbs, they have gotten even better this run with a new unlock to permanently lighten those items! Plus, Tivvy eased up restrictions for what her merchants will let you engrave as your identifying mark--you can now do small objects, not just shapes!"	Make Your Mark
Survivalist's Kit	Whisker was overheard exclaiming about his new Survivalist's Kit, "It's outstanding! Now if we could just get survival cabinets on OSA ships ..." Maybe Mister Retser reads here! One never knows!	The Herbal Huntsman
Fullmetal Crucible	Have you ever found cool metals in the form of weapons, shields, or armor which you have no intention of 'ever' using? Leafiara was very enthusiastic for the new crucibles, "Collect enough pounds of them and the new Fullmetal Crucible can turn them into something stellar like forging slabs, trick coins, customizable frames for paintings, or beads for weaving!" Buy yours today at Scoria and Dross.	Scoria and Dross
Illusion Prop PLUS, a Spell Prep Prop, Too!	Rabskuttle was shopping at Be Warez and ran across the new combination Illusion Prop/Spell Prep Prop. He explained why he liked this, "They forge a connection between look and function without needing a rare win of any kind. Even better, there's a relatively inexpensive postcard in the HESS that allows you to change the spell circle to suit your character!" Oh, really, now?	Be Warez
Survivalist's Kit	Mourdeyan commented, "The new Survivalist's Kit makes herbal and potion management so efficent! it was a little mindboggling for a moment, now I wouldn't go back to my old herb and potion container." And you're clearly not alone, either!	The Herbal Huntsman
Plague Mask and Plague Cowl **	A cowled and masked figure stood in front of The Sable Quietus, shifting uneasily. Speaking no words, he gestured urgently to the shop entrance, his shopping bag filled, even with a couple of cartridges barely peeking out of the opening. That shop has been helping people make quite a statement in their attire since 2018, and will not return to Duskruin. Suddenly the mute and masked figure began rummaging in his shopping bag ... and I moved right along!	The Sable Quietus
Cigar cutter and Tobacco Box **	Cigar aficionados, tobacco enthusiasts, and brawling fans take heed that the Cut and Dried shop is not returning to Bloodriven Village. The cigar cutters will morph into variously enchanted knuckle-dusters. Tobacco-storing jars and tins, along with cigar wrappers, make up the meat and potatoes of this classic Duskruin Shop.	Cut And Dried
Life Aquatic **	The Gemstone, Candy, Paper decorations of the OSA and the Flotilla make wonderful sea-themed goodies! I can't believe this is the last time they will be here at Duskruin, it's only their second time! Get yours now while you can, because evidently not enough sold the first time! Fringe benefit: the collection device will store right in the pail with your sea creature delights!	Peashirmen
