You are wearing a deep sapphire crushed velvet gown embroidered with wisps of azure flame along the sleeves. >l my gown The stiffly boned bodice of this garment is paneled cobalt satin, with azure-threaded wisps of flame curling along the neckline and accented with slivers of dark lapis. Meanwhile, the remainder of the gown is crushed velvet in a deep sapphire hue, shifting from light to dark and back again with the merest touch. Waves of fire in shimmering, pale blue filament course along the pointed sleeves as well as the skirt hem, each curved finger of flame cradling a cabochon of lapis. >prep 906 Your hands glow with power as you invoke the phrase for Minor Fire... Your spell is ready. >cast my gown You gesture at a deep sapphire crushed velvet gown embroidered with wisps of azure flame along the sleeves. As the flames break upon the crushed velvet gown, the fire is absorbed into the fabric, each thread subtly backlit by a fiery glow. In a rush that causes the air to distort, azure flames erupt and race to cover the garment in a cloak of living fire as a blazing sapphire velvet gown engulfed in a haze of azure flame is revealed. >l my gown Deep blue sapphire velvet is the canvas for a myriad ripples of azure flame that course in overlapping waves along the elegant lines of the gown from neck to hem. The tendrils of fire fitfully trail the neckline, pooling in small eddies amidst the lapis accents, then slowly trickle downward along the bodice to tease the pointed waistline with languid strokes. Inbetwixt the heavy falls of the velvet skirt, rivulets of pale blue flame writhe along the valleys to collect in roiling lagoons along the hem. Thoughfully, your fingers skip along the bodice of your sapphire velvet gown, giving birth to tiny whorls of azure flame with each touch as your hand comes to rest on your waist. The staccato rhythm of your tapping finger sends those coils of fire down the folds of your skirt. You stiffly smooth your hands over the bodice of your sapphire velvet gown, the azure flames darkening under your touch, before resting them firmly on your hips. Each irritated tap of your finger against your waist ignites a spark that streaks tendrils of flame long your skirt. From the shoulders of your sapphire velvet gown, spirals of azure flame twine down your arms to coalesce about your wrists. Cords of azure flame wind in and out of the fabric of your sapphire velvet gown, licking at the air around you. ~ X., Mocking Who? |

You remove your robe and instead, wear a cloak. >prod my cloak You prod your finger against your green velvet cloak. It ripples about you, seeming almost alive. Time passes.

A lone tri-toned brown mockingbird swoops down, lands on your shoulder, and pecks gently at your green velvet cloak. You reach to stroke its delicate wing, but it launches into the air and flies away.| |

Pfft, that's been done before and would not be new. Zests and actions they include I will admit, but nothing more from me will you get. "Want to know what they do," asks the soothsayer? Your only clue is in the words, "A wing and a prayer."
These attune and will be destroyed if removed. They can only be worn by a follower of Gosaena, convert to any other deity (or none) and they are PERMANENTLY lost. (No really. I mean it. Deleted, gone, no amount of assisting, reporting, begging, or bribing will get them back) They make use of your distinguishing mark field.

You pick up a rusted broken no-dachi. Speaking to your broken no-dachi, you say, "You look kind of worthless." You hold your broken no-dachi up in offering and mutter some prayers to Lorminstra. After a moment of silence, a pure golden shaft of light springs forth from your broken no-dachi and bathes you in its glow. Images of the broken no-dachi from its moment of creation to the present flash before your eyes in quick succession. As the images and shaft of light fade away, you feel heavily drained but somehow more spiritually attuned to the broken no-dachi.

Aeia's Grace
| #19 | Aeia's Grace | 30 Nov | GM Vanah | A subtle heat rises in your cheeks as you sing, a blush like that given as one basks in the glow of a roaring fire. You feel a subtle quickening in your heart as a vision plays before your eyes.
Though the sun had long since set, the sky was ablaze with a red-orange glow that would surely make the daylight jealous. Bonfires were lit along the river's edge and throughout the green, and myriad sparks filled the air overhead like a cloud of dancing fireflies. Though all about him the night was alive with the rhythmic pronouncements of drums and the airy laughter and singing of those nearby, he lingered just at the edge of the light alone. He watched the villagers, his friends, his neighbors, as they partook of the festivities, often linked arm in arm as they wove spirals around first one bonfire, then another. They beckoned to him as they passed. "Join us," he heard them call with the very breath of temptation. With a head shake, he declined the invitation, time and again, preferring instead to continue his solitary trek. It was after such a renunciation that he caught sight of her, only a glimpse as he turned to avoid the revelers. Her pale skin was set alight by the glow of the bonfires, and her long, brown hair was gilded with a coppery red that rivaled any flame. He found himself drawn to her, and as he approached, she turned to meet his eyes with her own, a gaze painted by every green promise the earth had ever made. |

And hey, the number of night only herbs are 2 more than daytime only herbs, so maybe grab those while they're out! But, more seriously, the duration is long enough to get a few decent short hunts in, or maybe one longer marathon hunt. Refresh rate is listed in the days, not per day. The eclipse doesn't trigger immediately, there are world-wide messages about the imminent disaster and doom about to happen to warn people to finish up their alchemy or at the very least, not attempt a new one. |

Roll Yer Own THANG
| #29 | Custom Scripted Mechanical Item | 10 Dec | GM Finros | We're going to try an experiment for one of the offerings in this auction: a completely new custom-scripted item designed by the winner which is allowed to have (significant) mechanical aspects. We've never done anything like this before, so I'm going to go beyond simple teasing and try to lay out the details, and answer questions as needed.
The broad outline is pretty simple. The winner will work with me to design an entirely new item concept. I will then go build that item and deliver it to them. The item is allowed to have significant mechanical benefits ("auction quality") comparable to the most powerful items in the game. There are obviously many caveats, which I will attempt to cover below, but there aren't meant to be any "gotchas". - I am the sole authority over what is considered acceptable. Period. I will bend over backwards to work with someone on arriving at a reasonable design, and will field questions over the next week in order to help people understand what reasonable means, but if I reject something, there is no appeal. - This offering is for a new scripted item. It is fine to steal partial ideas from old items where it makes sense, but "designs" of the sort "I want a copy of Kree's blade", "I want a Banthis elemental bow that also has crate whistle functionality" and "I want a 10x undead bane claidhmore with 10 extra points of weighting" are not going to fly. To be clear, a base item is part of the service, and I expect that many ideas will have a high-enchant special-ability weapon or armor piece as part of the design. That's fine; but this can't be used to cobble together some super-powered item out of existing components. - The precise internal mechanics (such as formulas and costs) of the item are in my court. I will absolutely take input on those aspects and make sure that the winner isn't blindsided by anything unexpected, but they aren't chosen precisely by the winner. Messaging, subject to QC and basic standards, is up to the winner. - The winner should have a reasonably detailed design by the end. I'll work with you to refine it from a broad concept to a fuller design, but if you try to leave it at "something like Sorrow but on a polearm", I'm not going to be terribly motivated to finish the design for you, and you'll probably be disappointed. - The item is guaranteed unique for three years, by approval of the PM. I personally commit to not approving the release of another copy for as long as I remain on staff (so long as the item continues to exist in the game) and even after I leave staff, I'll leave a note behind discouraging re-release. However, I also note that there will be no exception to our general policy of items not standing in the way of releasing new system mechanics. - If we are unable to reach agreement on the item concept, you will be refunded the auction price in full. - The item will likely be attuned to the winning character for a period of one year, to discourage immediate transfer or resale. This isn't set in stone and is dependent on the item, but I suggest that it be assumed. - There will be a time limit on designing the item. I realize that the auction is happening right at the holiday period, and I'll be flexible as needed, but barring unusual circumstances, we should start the design process by January 15. If it goes later than that without you establishing contact, the win is forfeit without refund. I'll be taking the next week to answer questions on the process. That includes giving ballpark yes/no answers to item proposals for those who want to make them. This isn't the time to try and work out an exact design, but I want to answer in enough detail to make sure people have a good sense of what to expect, going in. As a final note, we've never offered something like this before, and there are no guarantees that we'll ever offer it again. This is an experiment. The nature of this type of offering means that it can only be performed by a member of the development team senior staff. If it goes poorly, it will probably never be offered again. Even if it goes well, it is the sort of thing that will only be done every once in a great while, since it necessarily involves a great deal of work that ultimately goes to only one player. |

"If only my house was here, I'd be home right now." >raise branch A sudden burst of wind rushes through the area, and a ring of spectral sylvans manifest in a closed circle around you as they chant earnestly. One opens a golden pouch and gingerly empties its contents onto the ground as the chanting crescendos.

The apparitions raise their hands in a display of reverence before slowly disappearing into thin air. |

This shield is, in fact, using the new SMR. However, when it comes out, the shield will be the only live thing using the new SMR. Earthen Fury will be the next release to use it. The new SMR isn't going to be a sweeping change that happens overnight. New maneuvers will probably use it, and while moving old maneuvers and/or spells to the new sytem is a goal, it isn't going to happen right away. |

Flares and spikes can be added to the shield, though it will not make the throw ability more effective. > Are there any shield/combat maneuver training that play any direct/indirect role in adding success in attacks? No. Only Shield Use training is used for the throw. > What "script" slot does it take? (What other scripts will not play nicely with it, i.e. banshee, fusion, grobey, shield changing) This is a heavily scripted item, so it takes that slot. Other scripts won't play nicely with it.

Certain features are out of place as you realize these must be the Dragonspines of the distant past. A grandfather storm is brewing in the skies around you as brilliant bolts of blue-white lightning strike through the air, lancing down to assault the rocky surface of the Dragonspines below you. Amid the raging storm, a singular column of azure light and lightning emits an eerie blue glow, casting the entire scene in a ghostly cobalt luminescence. Tens of thousands of lesser elementals storm toward what could only be the form of Veiki, Great Elemental of Lightning. Roundtime: 10 sec. The rest of the loresong it pretty fun too, and has a really neat effect that does not kill the bard. Promise! As for mechanical functionality...

A web of moonlight briefly surrounds a vaalin-chased silver mesh gauntlet as Keios slips it over her left hand. After a moment the webwork spreads out along her wrist and seeps into her skin. Keios gently traces the back of a vaalin-chased silver mesh gauntlet and faint trails of moonlight spill down its sides to briefly illuminate the webwork along her skin. Keios slides a vaalin-chased silver mesh gauntlet along her wrist, adjusting its fit. Keios breathes deeply, and the webwork of moonlight limning her arm begins to pulse as if in tune with her heartbeat. Keios winks at you. Keios raises her hand to the sky and a webwork of moonlight flares to life along her wrist, spilling out into the air in arcing lines that twist and turn until they merge to form a gleaming moon silver bow which lands gently in her palm. Keios gives her bow string a good pluck, testing it for tension.
