A parasol is a lightly-scripted fluff item. There have been multiple versions of parasols, each with slightly different messaging. A parasol may also be the base description of a sword cane.

Basic Parasol

Analyze

You analyze your silk parasol and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item has restrictions on changing the noun."

The creator has also provided the following information:

This is a parasol that can be opened, closed, leaned on, and turned.  There are no tiers to unlock.  It may be altered, but should remain a parasol.

You get no sense of whether or not the parasol may be further lightened.
