She was one those children who never really had to practice much in order learn a new tune or instrument. Her masters were sometimes harsh in their criticisms as she was quite talented but had no interest in the details of her studies. She felt that their comments were petty and their baton whacks were demeaning. The ticking sound of a metronome would make her cringe. <br /> <br /> When Regwen was nearly of age, she felt that she should head out on her own. She thought life would be easy as she was, &quot;just so talented”. Who wouldn't love to hear her play? She would surely be a court performer in no time! She was a follower of Lord Cholen thinking he would surely bless her grand plans. Her parents, being supportive and dreamers themselves, gave her leave to go out on her own. <br /> <br /> But, she was very naive and inexperienced with life in general. Regwen learned quickly that the world is not a safe place and that there were many performers vying for the few positions available locally yet alone those in the distant empire. She found that there were few to help her and she struggled with her life lessons. After a particularly grueling time, her parents having been killed by the Jantalorian attacks in 5103, Regwen fell asleep in a deep exhaustion. <br /> <br /> ==5115==<br /> Twelve years later, when Regwen awoke, she was shocked to see the devastation of the town and declined population. She began to wonder if there could be a greater purpose for her, rather than simply being a performer. Regwen became determined to complete her trainings both as a bard and as a voln master. She decided to follow Lord Ronan, whom she saw as a more engaged Arkati against the unlife and the general evil so prominent in the lands.<br /> <br /> She was converted to [[Ronan]] by the Lord of Dreams himself during a mass prayer session which was led by the Second Watcher of the Church of Koar, [[Lheren]]. <br /> <br /> Regwen is currently a herald for the court of Vornavis as a member of the Silver Gryphons.

<p>GSBARDESS: </p> <hr /> <div>{{spell<br /> | mnemonic = SANCTIFY<br /> | duration = Special<br /> | type = Utility<br /> | subtype = Combat Gear Enhancement<br /> | skill = None<br /> | components = None<br /> | navigation = {{cleric base navigation}}<br /> | availability = all combat gear<br /> }}<br /> {{TOC limit|10}} &lt;!-- this is to get the table of contents above the opening blurb --&gt;<br /> <br /> After gaining the ability to cast '''Sanctify''', a cleric will begin to acquire devotion as they gain [[experience]]. A skilled cleric can use this devotion to permanently enhance combat armaments for use against the [[undead]]. This enhancement provides both offensive and defensive benefits, and can even be further bestowed with Holy Fire flares.<br /> <br /> == Armament Enhancements ==<br /> <br /> Undead possess a natural 25% damage resistance to physical attacks, as well as a +25 bonus to defending against [[:Category:Player System Manager | PSM skills]]. Each tier of Sanctify on relevant offensive combat gear negates 20% of these defenses, removing them completely at the fifth tier (T5).<br /> <br /> Further, sanctified items gain the following benefits when combating the undead (and only the undead):<br /> <br /> '''Weapons'''<br /> <br /> * Melee and ranged weapons gain a bonus of 2 AS per tier. <br /> * Runestaves gain a bonus of 2 bolt AS and 1.2 CS per tier.<br /> * Each tier also has a 20% chance to [[anchor]] non-corporeal undead when defeated.<br /> <br /> '''Defensive Gear'''<br /> <br /> * Targets wielding a sanctified shield or torso armor gain a bonus, per tier, of 2 DS, 1.2 TD, and +1 effective level against [[sheer fear]].<br /> * Targets wielding a sanctified runestaff gain a bonus, per tier, of 1 DS, 0.6 TD, and +0.5 effective level against sheer fear.<br /> * Runestaff and shield bonuses stack with torso armor, but not with each other.<br /> <br /> '''Holy Fire Flares'''<br /> <br /> * A cleric with at least 100 ranks of [[Spiritual Lore, Blessings]] can spend 200,000 devotion to attempt to bestow permanent Holy Fire flares to a T5 sanctified weapon.<br /> * Holy Fire flares, in addition to a standard heat critical, will deal a random 50 to 100 concussion damage. The concussion damage is capped at 20% of the target’s total health.<br /> <br /> '''Cleric-Only Effects'''<br /> <br /> * An innate cleric bonus to these flares is that the concussion damage is instead 75 to 125.<br /> * Clerics can EVOKE 330 at items to temporarily grant them Holy Fire flares and non-corporeal undead anchoring. This enhancement functions for clerics only, does not apply any of the other 330 benefits, and lasts for 4 hours.<br /> * At 90 and 180 ranks of [[Spiritual Lore, Religion]] clerics gain an extra charge of a Holy Fire flare that is guaranteed to trigger on their next attack.<br /> <br /> == Skill Formula ==<br /> <br /> * [[Level]]: +1 per level<br /> * [[Cleric Base|Cleric Spell Ranks]]: +2 per rank up to level, +1 per rank above level (&quot;up to level&quot; is based on 1x spell training and thus a level 50 cleric with 100 ranks will have 52 ranks at +2 and 48 ranks at +1)<br /> * [[Wisdom]]: +1 per stat bonus<br /> * [[Influence]]: +1 per stat bonus<br /> * [[Spiritual Mana Control]]: +1 per 2 ranks<br /> * [[Magic Item Use]]: +1 per 10 ranks<br /> * [[Arcane Symbols]]: +1 per 10 ranks<br /> * Shrine Bonus: +20 for matching [[CONVERT (verb)|{{boldmono|CONVERT}}]] exactly, +10 for same {{boldmono|CONVERT}} pantheon (bonuses do not stack)<br /> * Being wounded and under a penalty from low spirit will hinder sanctification attempts<br /> <br /> == Shrine Bonus ==<br /> <br /> [[Holy places]] that show through [[SENSE (verb)|{{boldmono|SENSE}}]] a deity that you are converted to will give a +20 bonus. If you are not converted to that deity, but are in the same pantheon (Liabo, Lornon, and Neutral) it will give a +10 bonus.<br /> <br /> Holy places that show multiple deities will not give the +20 deity bonus, but instead the +10 pantheon bonus. An example of this would be if you were converted to Lorminstra, and in a location that senses as &quot;Lorminstra, Imaera, Phoen, and Oleani.&quot;<br /> <br /> An omnishrine, a location that senses as having the &quot;harmonized presence of multiple deities' influence,&quot; will give the +20 deity bonus to all clerics, regardless of deity selection (including other, forsaken, and not yet chosen).<br /> <br /> A location that senses as having the &quot;influence of an indiscernible higher power&quot; is an unknown, but specific deity in the Neutral pantheon. A forsaken cleric received a +10 bonus while a Lorminstra cleric received +0.<br /> <br /> == Incomplete List of Omnishrines ==<br /> <br /> '''[[Icemule Trace]]'''<br /> *Icemule Temple, Foyer - 2334, 4047001<br /> *Icemule Temple, Chancel Nexus - 2336, 4047005<br /> *Hall of the Holy Struggle - 2341, 4047024<br /> <br /> '''[[Wehnimer's Landing]]'''<br /> <br /> *[[House Sovyn]], Paladin's Lounge - 14617, 210010 (publicly accessible)<br /> *[[Rone Academy]], Cathedral - 24484, 217033 (publicly accessible)<br /> <br /> '''[[Zul Logoth]]'''<br /> <br /> *[[DragonSpine Fane]], Altar Chamber - 26068, 679031 (all 3 obelisk Chambers are also omnishrines)<br /> <br /> == Process ==<br /> <br /> Sanctifying gear may require a [[Enchanting potion#Pre-tempering Potions | pre-temper potion]] be applied before the service can be cast as follows: <br /> <br /> * [[Enhancive]]: an [[urven'eth potion]]<br /> * [[Ensorcell]]: an [[inky black potion]]<br /> <br /> Note: [[Enchant | Enchanting]] and Ensorcelling sanctified gear requires an urven'eth potion.<br /> <br /> CAST &lt;object&gt; will provide an estimate on difficulty.<br /> CHANNEL &lt;object&gt; will preform the permanent application.<br /> <br /> == Post Name Titles ==<br /> <br /> After spending 50 full weeks of devotion (2.5 million) the cleric will gain access to the Sanctifier [[Title system | title]]. After bestowing 15 items with Holy Fire (3 million devotion) the cleric will gain access to the Holy Flame title. Devotion spent on bestowing Holy Fire counts for devotion spent towards the Sanctifier title. The [[SPELL (verb)|{{boldmono|SPELL}}]] command will show the lifetime amount of both devotion spent and armaments bestowed with Holy Fire.<br /> <br /> The titles are listed in the skill section of the title list ({{boldmono|TITLE LIST SKILL}}) and these titles also work with the {{boldmono|SET SHOWDEITYTITLE ON}} setting to create a title of: &lt;character name&gt; the &lt;title&gt; of &lt;deity&gt;.</div>

<p>GSBARDESS: </p> <hr /> <div>{{TOCright}}<br /> '''An Ebon Gate Primer'''<br /> <br /> ==Introduction==<br /> [[Ebon Gate 2018 | Ebon Gate]] is a huge, multi-faceted annual Festival Event in GemStone. The 2017 Ebon Gate was the first time it took place the entire month of October, which continued in 2018, and the format is back for 2019. This is a large SimuCoin event at a venue outside of the regularly accessible areas of GemStoneIV. You can buy the SimuCoin pass for just the kind of activities you wish to attend: Shopping, or Merchants/Services/Raffles, or Digging and games (by the week). There is no cut off date for the passes - they are sold up to the last day, and there is no maximum number of attendees. Everyone can come. Anyone will be able to access the Festival Grounds at Caligos Isle without purchasing anything at all. Doing things ... that's going to require the appropriate SimuCoin item.<br /> <br /> # The first rule of Ebon Gate: Bookmark the wiki page and the shopping page. It saves you time later. They will be regularly updated with new Ebon Gate information as it becomes available. The wiki team has already created the pages, and will update them with new info. (Also - check with the wiki team and find out if you can help with the documentation of the Festival. There's a Lich script that does a lot the heavy lifting for you.)<br /> #* Main Info Page: [[Ebon Gate 2019]]<br /> #* Shops' Inventory Page: [[Ebon Gate 2019 shop listing]]<br /> #* '''Pro Tip:''' Keep the two pages open in your browser tabs for the duration<br /> # The second rule of Ebon Gate: Prepare. Prepare. Prepare.<br /> # The third rule of Ebon Gate: &lt;code&gt;;tune TownCrier&lt;/code&gt; to pick up important breaking news<br /> # The fourth rule: Give the wiki team a day or 10 to map and inventory every shop. If you'd like it finished faster, study the [[Help:Festshop script]] page for the script and instructions about how YOU can painlessly help to document the festival via a great Lich script. In 2015, for instance, there were 141 shops! That's a great deal of work.<br /> # The fifth rule: Use the FESTIVAL command in-game for a quick reference for General info, Schedule, locations, passes, no-passes, GHOUL, and more!<br /> # The sixth rule: Stay on top of the news out of Ebon Gate. You'll find that on the TownCrier channel via Lich, or at the [http://gstowncrier.com TownCrier web site]. This year, there's even a sneak peek at Ebon Gate in a [http://townsquarecentral.libsyn.com/swole-eagle-jesus Town Square Central podcast], and you will not want to miss that!<br /> <br /> [[Deep Sea Diving]] is usually the SimuCoin companion event to Ebon Gate. Like [[Delirium Manor]] it is available to everyone. You will need to purchase the ticket item/pass in the SimuCoin shop for dives. These are sold individually, and not part of the other Ebon Gate access passes.<br /> <br /> 2018 was the first year for [[Ebon Gate 2018#Diving Competition|The Caligos Diving Competition]] event.<br /> <br /> The [[Ebon Gate 2019/Treasure Trove|Treasure Trove]] will be at Ebon Gate for 2019. It was in a test run at [[Duskruin Arena/Treasure Trove Raffles August 2019|Duskruin, August 2019]] if you want an idea of how that worked and what its rules were. Look for 'an eel-etched raffle token' to use with the Treasure Trove Raffles<br /> <br /> The storyline opens on the first for about a week.<br /> <br /> QUEST TRANSPORT EBON will get you to Caligos Isle from every city.<br /> <br /> TICKET BALANCE will show you your various currency balances. For Ebon Gate, that's the seashells line.<br /> <br /> ===The Quest===<br /> <br /> There is a smaller story-quest you can participate in/work on the rest of the month. There will be a quest-like progress item you collect and turn in. This earns a favor-like collection score for you that counts towards being able to qualify for the [[Ghezyte chelioboros bracelet]] upgrade for the year. If you missed previous years, you can do more of whatever the task is for the current year to catch up. Each year's favor requirement seems to double, so catching up may take some time.<br /> <br /> *2017: You turned in construction parts to complete the old temple on the top of the Isle<br /> *2018: You found a thingie, took it to either the Warden or ??? to validate, depending on whether you want to fight against Ghezresh or have him win. Then they handed it back to you, changed, and you found a villager to give it to. Ghezresh lost this popular 'vote' in 2018.<br /> *2019: There are multiple different quest items, each unique to &quot;Pro&quot; or &quot;Anti&quot; Gezresh community, see the Questing section further below for more details.<br /> <br /> ==Shopping and Merchants:==<br /> There are [[Ebon Gate 2019 shop listing | so many shops]] at the Ebon Gate Festival; new scripts and items are often introduced at this festival. [[Ebon Gate 2019 | Previews and teasers]] trickle out for weeks before the event opens. Some of the shops have wares that are only available once a year during this time. There are multiple appearances by multiple merchants during the festival. Sometimes you may even see them simultaneously and you'll have to make a QUICK decision which merchant to find. The merchant appearances are often general services (GALD: [[Alter | '''G'''eneral '''A'''lterations]], [[Lightening | '''L'''ightening]], or [[Deepening | '''D'''eepening]]); sometimes only one or two of those things; sometimes unlockings only, or in addition. There could merchants who will provide custom tattoos, customize your features, and other special offerings. Some merchants might only work on their own things. Some merchants you dare not ever ask them to alter something they've made, remember to read all the signs. Rare unlocking and services can sometimes be found during the festival time. <br /> <br /> '''Pro Tip:''' Remember to read all the signage. I am ''not responsible'' for your safety when you ask Kyrinthe for something in pink.<br /> <br /> '''Schedule:''' Stay tuned to the main Ebon Gate page and to the TownCrier for details. Some will be announced in advance so that you can plan for them, some will just happen. We're waiting on the announced schedule for 2019, but these are our educated guesses for our month-long EG:<br /> * '''The 1st week - Oct 1-6:''' Storyline begins; usually starts at 9pm on the 1st<br /> * '''The 2nd week - Oct 5-10:''' Live GM-Hosted Games Week in Plat (Opens ~9pm eastern on the 5th)<br /> * '''The 2nd week - Oct 7-31:''' Shops Open (starts ~9pm eastern on the 7th in both Prime and Plat)<br /> * '''The 2nd week - Oct 10-31:''' (Prime/Plat both)<br /> ** Digging and Games begin, including fishing, digging up crates on the beach, and the mini-games<br /> ** Deep Sea Diving, and the Diving Competition companion events open<br /> ** Shopping continue for the rest of the month<br /> ** Something New starts<br /> * '''The 3rd week - Oct 12-17:''' Platinum's Merchant Week<br /> * '''The 3rd week - Oct 12-17:''' Live GM-Hosted Games Week in Prime<br /> ** [[Ebon_Gate_Festival_live_games | Live Games]] with a GM Host for all manner of fun. See the details below. The schedule is usually available under the FESTIVAL command in GS<br /> * '''The 4th week - Oct 18-25:''' Merchant Week in Prime! There are SO many merchants. It usually includes:<br /> ** Live Merchant sessions for GALD<br /> ** Live Merchant sessions for Unlocking things<br /> ** Misc. Merchant appearances for features, tattoos, imbedding, flares, signature verbs, and more<br /> ** Specialized Merchant appearances for Weighting/Padding/Sighting (bring all the money)<br /> ** Specialized Merchant appearances for script swapping, attribute stripping (spikes, weighting, padding, whatever, and other hoped-for rare services)<br /> ** Raffles - so many raffles. Many of these raffles have prizes that are offered only once or twice a year! Remember these require silvers, not notes, and ''read all the signage''<br /> * '''The last week - Oct 26-31:''' Finish your diving, shopping, games, and whatever tasks the storyline arc/s require this year, the party will be over soon.<br /> <br /> ==Ala Carte Pricing==<br /> There is no entrance fee to wander the venue, see the sights at Caligos Isle, window shop, get a feel for what you want to do, and take part in some of the activities and events. You buy a pass only for the activities you want to participate in.<br /> <br /> {| {{prettytable}}<br /> |-bgcolor=lightblue<br /> ! Event Type<br /> ! Notes<br /> ! Type of Pass<br /> !

Look for the [http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?92916 walk-through at the PC] from Mister Goat.<br /> <br /> ===The Month-Long Favor Quest===<br /> The favor quest for Caligos Island EG 2019 is a bit more involved than the previous year. Ghezresh looks to restore his temple on the island by rebuilding the tile work and making it grand once more. The villagers of the island seek to expand into the fishing village that was found in 2018 and are looking to build homes there. There are numerous different types of favor items, but only some can be used by one side or the other. It is not yet clear if it is a competition or not.<br /> ====Anti-Ghezresh====<br /> This year marks the start of repopulating the area and to do so we need to build some homes. Most rooms in the fishing village area, the center of which is lich room number 27553, should have the following: a large rectangular hole in the ground and a pile of construction tools. The rectangular holes are foundations that need to be built. There appears to be multiple phases of construction as well, which will be detailed below as they are found. For now, the following items can be placed into the rectangular hole and provide 25 favor for EG:<br /> *a tumbled grey stone<br /> *a smooth grey boulder<br /> *a waterproof sack of mortar<br /> *a forged horseshoe nail <br /> *a blocky pine beam <br /> <br /> These items, when placed in the hole, will incur some RT and provide 25 favor. You can find the fishing village by heading to the northern passage/slope and heading down the trail. Follow the path down and into the village. You will know you are in the right area by seeing luminous stones on the ground, protecting you from the mist.<br /> Anti-Ghezresh forces can also deny the pro-Ghezresh forces favor by taking the following items to the Warden, who wanders around the High Plateau area (center of the island, up the vortex) and handing over items. They will be rewarded a few seashells for doing so. The following items can be denied:<br /> *a tiny blue mosaic tile<br /> *a waterproof bag of powdered lime<br /> <br /> Handing a building material to the Warden:<br /> Pointing at your grey boulder, a scruffy-faced half-elven warden says, &quot;That's just what we need up in the village. You bring it up that way, and help those folks build a home. It will go a long way, but if you aren't interested in in doing that, then, I could take it off your hands. Just give it to me again.&quot;<br /> <br /> Handing a tile to the warden:<br /> Frowning, his brows knitting together on his forehead, a scruffy-faced half-elven warden says, &quot;Well, that can't be good. I don't know what our little Olienne is up to this time, but I can guarantee it isn't good.&quot; Scratching at his head in thought, he says, &quot;Why don't you give it to me again and I can take it off your hands?&quot;<br /> Second time:<br /> A scruffy-faced half-elven warden accepts a tiny blue mosaic tile from you, quietly saying, &quot;Let's make sure no one else can use this.&quot; He tosses it up to a lion-maned shaggy Caligos eagle, who catches it in her claws and soars away with it. Smirking, he turns back to you and says, &quot;Here you are for your troubles.&quot; As he hands you some coins, a lion-maned shaggy Caligos eagle flies in with empty talons and a triumphant cry.<br /> <br /> ====Pro-Ghezresh====<br /> Ghezresh followers and supporters will find their task for 2019 is to build a Ghezresh temple. There are two items that are currently known to provide favor for Ghezresh supports that can be turned in by heading through a secret passage from EG to Zul Logoth. Head down to the sea caves playground and SEARCH for a tear in the atmosphere. By entering the tear you will be transported to a temple under construction. Head through the fracture in the wall and you will find a frame for setting your tiles in. PUT TILE IN FRAME to add to the mosaic. Waterproof bags of lime can also be put into a hole in the Chamber of the Dark, lich room number 26070 after heading through the tear in the atmosphere. This is a long journey and has a lot of RT when you move between rooms. The following two items provide 25 favor and assist Ghezresh:<br /> *a tiny blue mosaic tile<br /> *a waterproof bag of powdered lime<br /> <br /> Pro-Ghezresh forces can also deny anti-Ghezresh items by taking them to the Ezreshi and giving them to her twice. The following items will get you a handful of seashells and deny the favor item when handed to the Ezreshi:<br /> *a tumbled grey stone<br /> *a smooth grey boulder<br /> *a waterproof sack of mortar<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> It is possible that the stones and boulders can be placed into the rectangular hole in the Chamber of The Dark. This needs to be confirmed and updated by a Pro-Ghezresh player.<br /> <br /> a waterproof bag of powdered lime, when offered to the Lithe Indigo-robed Ezreshi<br /> Grinning in a dreamy fashion, a lithe indigo-robed Ezreshi says, &quot;You must bring it to the city under the mountain. If you build it high enough, then He will be free. You may need to SEARCH nearby to find the road, and once you are there, you may need to climb some stairs, but if you find the frame or the hole, the plinth or the monolith, then all will be ready for Him.&quot;<br /> <br /> ==Special Features:==<br /> * The [[PERM-ifier]] - look for the obelisks to turn your favorite perfume, cologne, or other &quot;fluffy&quot; item that uses up doses into a bottomless one.

It's worth a read, and a re-read every year. Japhrimel is an Ebon Gate Pro. He has this down to a science.<br /> * Consolidate your shopping money in the bank of the city you'll be attending from. The Ebon Gate bank draws from the city you enter from.<br /> * Consolidate the gear/items you want worked on in the locker of the city you will be attending from. It'll be closer when you need it. Or carry them around with you.<br /> * '''Pro Tip:''' Keep an eye out on SERVICE SHOW for Merchants. They’ll appear in Monsterbold, so they will stick out a bit. A few merchants do not announce, but use this method.<br /> * '''Pro Tip:''' Stay tuned to GS Twitter - they might not use it for much of anything else, but they do sometimes use it for the pay Festivals. Just read the fine print since they mix plat and prime stuff up on the same channel (Don’t get me started about that…)<br /> * Remember that you can now use [[ANALYZE]] on most things for sale in shops at a festival and [[INSPECT]] got a lot better in 2019.<br /> * Unsure about the properties of something you have? Or something you buy at the Festival? Ask a bard to listen to the item sing. Look for one on SERVICE SHOW<br /> <br /> ===Inventory Management===<br /> * Have a Festival-specific large container you can drag around with you for all the things you want worked on by Merchants. You can quickly exchange it with the one in your locker of your usual stuff for a fast hunt or 6. (Lumnis happens whether Ebon Gate is open or not, after all.)<br /> * Gather all the special materials you need for the alterations you want. Keep them in your Merchant Bag.<br /> * Bring a standing cane for those times you are too loaded down and need to get back up. And they '''will''' happen, sometimes carrying your full merchant bag around, sometimes trying to get to a merchant or a raffle with all the silvers in your pocket.<br /> <br /> ===Lich Preparations===<br /> * LICH: download &lt;code&gt;;traffle&lt;/code&gt; to keep track of ALL the raffles that are about to happen. use the command alone at a raffle table to register it - then use the &lt;code&gt;;traffle list&lt;/code&gt; command anywhere for a list of upcoming raffles. It does NOT keep track of whether you bought the ticket or not, and does not notify you since the raffles usually do.<br /> * LICH: download &lt;code&gt;;wishlist&lt;/code&gt; to start your window shopping. Look in lich/logs/wishlist.log for the saved list of what you noted; the room number and shop room name appears with the text you add: EX: &gt; &lt;code&gt;;wishlist I think I really need the slim dark blue pants.

Remember to update it after purchasing things!<br /> * LICH: &lt;code&gt;;tune towncrier&lt;/code&gt; for both the Ebon Gate headlines and announcements from the festival grounds of events.<br /> <br /> ===Your Front End Prep===<br /> Whether it is Stormfront, Avalon, Wizard, Profanity, or something else, they can very likely make some things easier for you!<br /> * Color code merchant names in unique highlighting color/s so you don’t walk right by one. (Been there, done that, missed the service…)<br /> * Make sure your links are turned on in Stormfront so that those nested containers and rooms full of similar containers are easy to use by just clicking. ALT L toggles this in Windows. On a Mac, look for it in the Options button under advanced.<br /> * SET DESC ON so you miss nothing in rooms<br /> * Turn on logging in case you forget/lose/find a bug. &lt;code&gt;;log&lt;/code&gt; works great<br /> <br /> ===Reference Lists===<br /> * Create lists of what you need worked on and keep the lists open in your text editor. Update this when you buy stuff at the fest!<br /> ** Make a list of what needs unlocking, the name of the script/merchant, and it’s current status - as well as it’s max status.

Just in case one gets turned down, you have options to fall back on. via Cleric of Ta’Vaalor on Twitter<br /> ** Put more things on your list of alterations than you think you need. Did I mention already that there are ''so many merchants at Ebon Gate?''<br /> ** Make a list of what needs lightening. And keep the items with you. ''Seconds count'' at a Merchant appearance.<br /> ** Make a list of what needs deepening, and keep the containers with you.<br /> ** keep a list in notepad or something of what items you buy in what store and what the merchant is so when the merchant pops in, you know what item to grab.

<p>GSBARDESS: </p> <hr /> <div>{{TOCright}}<br /> '''An Ebon Gate Primer'''<br /> <br /> ==Introduction==<br /> [[Ebon Gate 2018 | Ebon Gate]] is a huge, multi-faceted annual Festival Event in GemStone. The 2017 Ebon Gate was the first time it took place the entire month of October, which continued in 2018, and the format is back for 2019. This is a large SimuCoin event at a venue outside of the regularly accessible areas of GemStoneIV. You can buy the SimuCoin pass for just the kind of activities you wish to attend: Shopping, or Merchants/Services/Raffles, or Digging and games (by the week). There is no cut off date for the passes - they are sold up to the last day, and there is no maximum number of attendees. Everyone can come. Anyone will be able to access the Festival Grounds at Caligos Isle without purchasing anything at all. Doing things ... that's going to require the appropriate SimuCoin item.<br /> <br /> # The first rule of Ebon Gate: Bookmark the wiki page and the shopping page. It saves you time later. They will be regularly updated with new Ebon Gate information as it becomes available. The wiki team has already created the pages, and will update them with new info. (Also - check with the wiki team and find out if you can help with the documentation of the Festival. There's a Lich script that does a lot the heavy lifting for you.)<br /> #* Main Info Page: [[Ebon Gate 2019]]<br /> #* Shops' Inventory Page: [[Ebon Gate 2019 shop listing]]<br /> #* '''Pro Tip:''' Keep the two pages open in your browser tabs for the duration<br /> # The second rule of Ebon Gate: Prepare. Prepare. Prepare.<br /> # The third rule of Ebon Gate: &lt;code&gt;;tune TownCrier&lt;/code&gt; to pick up important breaking news<br /> # The fourth rule: Give the wiki team a day or 10 to map and inventory every shop. If you'd like it finished faster, study the [[Help:Festshop script]] page for the script and instructions about how YOU can painlessly help to document the festival via a great Lich script. In 2015, for instance, there were 141 shops! That's a great deal of work.<br /> # The fifth rule: Use the FESTIVAL command in-game for a quick reference for General info, Schedule, locations, passes, no-passes, GHOUL, and more!<br /> # The sixth rule: Stay on top of the news out of Ebon Gate. You'll find that on the TownCrier channel via Lich, or at the [http://gstowncrier.com TownCrier web site]. This year, there's even a sneak peek at Ebon Gate in a [http://townsquarecentral.libsyn.com/swole-eagle-jesus Town Square Central podcast], and you will not want to miss that!<br /> <br /> [[Deep Sea Diving]] is usually the SimuCoin companion event to Ebon Gate. Like [[Delirium Manor]] it is available to everyone. You will need to purchase the ticket item/pass in the SimuCoin shop for dives. These are sold individually, and not part of the other Ebon Gate access passes.<br /> <br /> 2018 was the first year for [[Ebon Gate 2018#Diving Competition|The Caligos Diving Competition]] event.<br /> <br /> The [[Ebon Gate 2019/Treasure Trove|Treasure Trove]] will be at Ebon Gate for 2019. It was in a test run at [[Duskruin Arena/Treasure Trove Raffles August 2019|Duskruin, August 2019]] if you want an idea of how that worked and what its rules were. Look for 'an eel-etched raffle token' to use with the Treasure Trove Raffles<br /> <br /> The storyline opens on the first for about a week.<br /> <br /> QUEST TRANSPORT EBON will get you to Caligos Isle from every city.<br /> <br /> TICKET BALANCE will show you your various currency balances. For Ebon Gate, that's the seashells line.<br /> <br /> ===The Quest===<br /> <br /> There is a smaller story-quest you can participate in/work on the rest of the month. There will be a quest-like progress item you collect and turn in. This earns a favor-like collection score for you that counts towards being able to qualify for the [[Ghezyte chelioboros bracelet]] upgrade for the year. If you missed previous years, you can do more of whatever the task is for the current year to catch up. Each year's favor requirement seems to double, so catching up may take some time.<br /> <br /> *2017: You turned in construction parts to complete the old temple on the top of the Isle<br /> *2018: You found a thingie, took it to either the Warden or ??? to validate, depending on whether you want to fight against Ghezresh or have him win. Then they handed it back to you, changed, and you found a villager to give it to. Ghezresh lost this popular 'vote' in 2018.<br /> *2019: There are multiple different quest items, each unique to &quot;Pro&quot; or &quot;Anti&quot; Gezresh community, see the Questing section further below for more details.<br /> <br /> ==Shopping and Merchants:==<br /> There are [[Ebon Gate 2019 shop listing | so many shops]] at the Ebon Gate Festival; new scripts and items are often introduced at this festival. [[Ebon Gate 2019 | Previews and teasers]] trickle out for weeks before the event opens. Some of the shops have wares that are only available once a year during this time. There are multiple appearances by multiple merchants during the festival. Sometimes you may even see them simultaneously and you'll have to make a QUICK decision which merchant to find. The merchant appearances are often general services (GALD: [[Alter | '''G'''eneral '''A'''lterations]], [[Lightening | '''L'''ightening]], or [[Deepening | '''D'''eepening]]); sometimes only one or two of those things; sometimes unlockings only, or in addition. There could merchants who will provide custom tattoos, customize your features, and other special offerings. Some merchants might only work on their own things. Some merchants you dare not ever ask them to alter something they've made, remember to read all the signs. Rare unlocking and services can sometimes be found during the festival time. <br /> <br /> '''Pro Tip:''' Remember to read all the signage. I am ''not responsible'' for your safety when you ask Kyrinthe for something in pink.<br /> <br /> '''Schedule:''' Stay tuned to the main Ebon Gate page and to the TownCrier for details. Some will be announced in advance so that you can plan for them, some will just happen. We're waiting on the announced schedule for 2019, but these are our educated guesses for our month-long EG:<br /> * '''The 1st week - Oct 1-6:''' Storyline begins; usually starts at 9pm on the 1st<br /> * '''The 2nd week - Oct 5-10:''' Live GM-Hosted Games Week in Plat (Opens ~9pm eastern on the 5th)<br /> * '''The 2nd week - Oct 7-31:''' Shops Open (starts ~9pm eastern on the 7th in both Prime and Plat)<br /> * '''The 2nd week - Oct 10-31:''' (Prime/Plat both)<br /> ** Digging and Games begin, including fishing, digging up crates on the beach, and the mini-games<br /> ** Deep Sea Diving, and the Diving Competition companion events open<br /> ** Shopping continue for the rest of the month<br /> ** Something New starts<br /> * '''The 3rd week - Oct 12-17:''' Platinum's Merchant Week<br /> * '''The 3rd week - Oct 12-17:''' Live GM-Hosted Games Week in Prime<br /> ** [[Ebon_Gate_Festival_live_games | Live Games]] with a GM Host for all manner of fun. See the details below. The schedule is usually available under the FESTIVAL command in GS<br /> * '''The 4th week - Oct 18-25:''' Merchant Week in Prime! There are SO many merchants. It usually includes:<br /> ** Live Merchant sessions for GALD<br /> ** Live Merchant sessions for Unlocking things<br /> ** Misc. Merchant appearances for features, tattoos, imbedding, flares, signature verbs, and more<br /> ** Specialized Merchant appearances for Weighting/Padding/Sighting (bring all the money)<br /> ** Specialized Merchant appearances for script swapping, attribute stripping (spikes, weighting, padding, whatever, and other hoped-for rare services)<br /> ** Raffles - so many raffles. Many of these raffles have prizes that are offered only once or twice a year!

Look for the [http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?92916 walk-through at the PC] from Mister Goat.<br /> <br /> ===The Month-Long Favor Quest===<br /> The favor quest for Caligos Island EG 2019 is a bit more involved than the previous year. Ghezresh looks to restore his temple on the island by rebuilding the tile work and making it grand once more. The villagers of the island seek to expand into the fishing village that was found in 2018 and are looking to build homes there. There are numerous different types of favor items, but only some can be used by one side or the other. It is not yet clear if it is a competition or not.<br /> ====Anti-Ghezresh====<br /> This year marks the start of repopulating the area and to do so we need to build some homes. Most rooms in the fishing village area, the center of which is lich room number 27553, should have the following: a large rectangular hole in the ground and a pile of construction tools. The rectangular holes are foundations that need to be built. There appears to be multiple phases of construction as well, which will be detailed below as they are found. For now, the following items can be placed into the rectangular hole and provide 25 favor for EG:<br /> *a tumbled grey stone<br /> *a smooth grey boulder<br /> *a waterproof sack of mortar<br /> <br /> These items, when placed in the hole, will incur some RT and provide 25 favor. You can find the fishing village by heading to the northern passage/slope and heading down the trail. Follow the path down and into the village. You will know you are in the right area by seeing luminous stones on the ground, protecting you from the mist.<br /> Anti-Ghezresh forces can also deny the pro-Ghezresh forces favor by taking the following items to the Warden, who wanders around the High Plateau area (center of the island, up the vortex) and handing over items. They will be rewarded a few seashells for doing so. The following items can be denied:<br /> *a tiny blue mosaic tile<br /> *a waterproof bag of powdered lime<br /> <br /> Handing a building material to the Warden:<br /> Pointing at your grey boulder, a scruffy-faced half-elven warden says, &quot;That's just what we need up in the village. You bring it up that way, and help those folks build a home. It will go a long way, but if you aren't interested in in doing that, then, I could take it off your hands. Just give it to me again.&quot;<br /> <br /> Handing a tile to the warden:<br /> Frowning, his brows knitting together on his forehead, a scruffy-faced half-elven warden says, &quot;Well, that can't be good. I don't know what our little Olienne is up to this time, but I can guarantee it isn't good.&quot; Scratching at his head in thought, he says, &quot;Why don't you give it to me again and I can take it off your hands?&quot;<br /> Second time:<br /> A scruffy-faced half-elven warden accepts a tiny blue mosaic tile from you, quietly saying, &quot;Let's make sure no one else can use this.&quot; He tosses it up to a lion-maned shaggy Caligos eagle, who catches it in her claws and soars away with it. Smirking, he turns back to you and says, &quot;Here you are for your troubles.&quot; As he hands you some coins, a lion-maned shaggy Caligos eagle flies in with empty talons and a triumphant cry.<br /> <br /> ====Pro-Ghezresh====<br /> Ghezresh followers and supporters will find their task for 2019 is to build a Ghezresh temple. There are two items that are currently known to provide favor for Ghezresh supports that can be turned in by heading through a secret passage from EG to Zul Logoth. Head down to the sea caves playground and SEARCH for a tear in the atmosphere. By entering the tear you will be transported to a temple under construction. Head through the fracture in the wall and you will find a frame for setting your tiles in. PUT TILE IN FRAME to add to the mosaic. Waterproof bags of lime can also be put into a hole in the Chamber of the Dark, lich room number 26070 after heading through the tear in the atmosphere. This is a long journey and has a lot of RT when you move between rooms. The following two items provide 25 favor and assist Ghezresh:<br /> *a tiny blue mosaic tile<br /> *a waterproof bag of powdered lime<br /> <br /> Pro-Ghezresh forces can also deny anti-Ghezresh items by taking them to the Ezreshi and giving them to her twice. The following items will get you a handful of seashells and deny the favor item when handed to the Ezreshi:<br /> *a tumbled grey stone<br /> *a smooth grey boulder<br /> *a waterproof sack of mortar<br /> *a forged horseshoe nail <br /> *a blocky pine beam <br /> <br /> <br /> It is possible that the stones and boulders can be placed into the rectangular hole in the Chamber of The Dark. This needs to be confirmed and updated by a Pro-Ghezresh player.<br /> <br /> a waterproof bag of powdered lime, when offered to the Lithe Indigo-robed Ezreshi<br /> Grinning in a dreamy fashion, a lithe indigo-robed Ezreshi says, &quot;You must bring it to the city under the mountain. If you build it high enough, then He will be free. You may need to SEARCH nearby to find the road, and once you are there, you may need to climb some stairs, but if you find the frame or the hole, the plinth or the monolith, then all will be ready for Him.&quot;<br /> <br /> ==Special Features:==<br /> * The [[PERM-ifier]] - look for the obelisks to turn your favorite perfume, cologne, or other &quot;fluffy&quot; item that uses up doses into a bottomless one.

That's when some little trinket suddenly appears out of thin air where you are standing. It will wiggle around a few times, and you should GET the item as soon as possible. They do not tarry long. The first person to grab it is transported to where a GM is working, and PRESTO! You've got an alteration session!<br /> * [[Ebon Gate auto flarer|The Auto-Flarer]] uses tokens found in games to put flares on your weapons<br /> <br /> ==Getting Ready for The Festival:==<br /> <br /> ===General Tips===<br /> * Japhrimel's interview, [[Hacking Merchant Week with Japhrimel]], is a collection of amazing information and tips he learned from previous Ebon Gate Festivals. It's worth a read, and a re-read every year. Japhrimel is an Ebon Gate Pro. He has this down to a science.<br /> * Consolidate your shopping money in the bank of the city you'll be attending from. The Ebon Gate bank draws from the city you enter from.<br /> * Consolidate the gear/items you want worked on in the locker of the city you will be attending from. It'll be closer when you need it. Or carry them around with you.<br /> * '''Pro Tip:''' Keep an eye out on SERVICE SHOW for Merchants. They’ll appear in Monsterbold, so they will stick out a bit. A few merchants do not announce, but use this method.<br /> * '''Pro Tip:''' Stay tuned to GS Twitter - they might not use it for much of anything else, but they do sometimes use it for the pay Festivals. Just read the fine print since they mix plat and prime stuff up on the same channel (Don’t get me started about that…)<br /> * Remember that you can now use [[ANALYZE]] on most things for sale in shops at a festival and [[INSPECT]] got a lot better in 2019.<br /> * Unsure about the properties of something you have? Or something you buy at the Festival? Ask a bard to listen to the item sing. Look for one on SERVICE SHOW<br /> <br /> ===Inventory Management===<br /> * Have a Festival-specific large container you can drag around with you for all the things you want worked on by Merchants. You can quickly exchange it with the one in your locker of your usual stuff for a fast hunt or 6. (Lumnis happens whether Ebon Gate is open or not, after all.)<br /> * Gather all the special materials you need for the alterations you want. Keep them in your Merchant Bag.<br /> * Bring a standing cane for those times you are too loaded down and need to get back up. And they '''will''' happen, sometimes carrying your full merchant bag around, sometimes trying to get to a merchant or a raffle with all the silvers in your pocket.<br /> <br /> ===Lich Preparations===<br /> * LICH: download &lt;code&gt;;traffle&lt;/code&gt; to keep track of ALL the raffles that are about to happen. use the command alone at a raffle table to register it - then use the &lt;code&gt;;traffle list&lt;/code&gt; command anywhere for a list of upcoming raffles. It does NOT keep track of whether you bought the ticket or not, and does not notify you since the raffles usually do.<br /> * LICH: download &lt;code&gt;;wishlist&lt;/code&gt; to start your window shopping. Look in lich/logs/wishlist.log for the saved list of what you noted; the room number and shop room name appears with the text you add: EX: &gt; &lt;code&gt;;wishlist I think I really need the slim dark blue pants. They have pockets and are scripted with the flashy pants script&lt;/code&gt;<br /> * LICH: download &lt;code&gt;;itemnotes&lt;/code&gt; to track your gear, and consider using it to make notes about your alteration and ideas, too<br /> * LICH: download &lt;code&gt;tdig.ic&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;;egdigger.lic&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;;digger.lic&lt;/code&gt; - it might help with the repetitive digging tasks. Be patient, the scripts may need to be updated for the new year!<br /> * LICH: download &lt;code&gt;tgames.ic&lt;/code&gt; for those mini games action<br /> * LICH: Download &lt;code&gt;;roomorder&lt;/code&gt; to make just a little clearer sense of where you are in line. It tells you what GAZE LINE should.<br /> * LICH: Download &lt;code&gt;;testme&lt;/code&gt; to do zest tests and more. Be sure you read the script for the options! When I say more, really, it's pretty feature laden.<br /> * LICH: Consider &lt;code&gt;;prettiernum&lt;/code&gt; to make all those long numbers more readable with commas. DISCLAIMER: You may need to turn it off for some other scripts to work.<br /> * LICH: Download &lt;code&gt;;whatis&lt;/code&gt; to help you with abbreviations, initials, and all that special LINGO<br /> * LICH: Download &lt;code&gt;;multi&lt;/code&gt; for bulk purchase needs.<br /> * LICH: Download &lt;code&gt;;foreach&lt;/code&gt; for general help with finding thing, transferring them, and more.<br /> * LICH: Download &lt;code&gt;;survey&lt;/code&gt; to find all the things in a room and look in/on/etc them.<br /> * LICH: Download &lt;code&gt;;invdb&lt;/code&gt; to help you track which locker/character has what things. Remember to update it after purchasing things!<br /> * LICH: &lt;code&gt;;tune towncrier&lt;/code&gt; for both the Ebon Gate headlines and announcements from the festival grounds of events.<br /> <br /> ===Your Front End Prep===<br /> Whether it is Stormfront, Avalon, Wizard, Profanity, or something else, they can very likely make some things easier for you!<br /> * Color code merchant names in unique highlighting color/s so you don’t walk right by one. (Been there, done that, missed the service…)<br /> * Make sure your links are turned on in Stormfront so that those nested containers and rooms full of similar containers are easy to use by just clicking. ALT L toggles this in Windows. On a Mac, look for it in the Options button under advanced.<br /> * SET DESC ON so you miss nothing in rooms<br /> * Turn on logging in case you forget/lose/find a bug. &lt;code&gt;;log&lt;/code&gt; works great<br /> <br /> ===Reference Lists===<br /> * Create lists of what you need worked on and keep the lists open in your text editor. Update this when you buy stuff at the fest!<br /> ** Make a list of what needs unlocking, the name of the script/merchant, and it’s current status - as well as it’s max status. Not all unlocking lingo is the same, this sometimes takes a trip to the wiki to unravel. As always, keep the items on you.<br /> ** Have a list of items you want altered with several different versions of alterations for that item. Just in case one gets turned down, you have options to fall back on. via Cleric of Ta’Vaalor on Twitter<br /> ** Put more things on your list of alterations than you think you need. Did I mention already that there are ''so many merchants at Ebon Gate?''<br /> ** Make a list of what needs lightening. And keep the items with you. ''Seconds count'' at a Merchant appearance.<br /> ** Make a list of what needs deepening, and keep the containers with you.<br /> ** keep a list in notepad or something of what items you buy in what store and what the merchant is so when the merchant pops in, you know what item to grab. I use &lt;code&gt;;itemnotes&lt;/code&gt;<br /> * As you buy things at the festival keep notes about what NEW things will need to be unlocked while the merchant/s are at the festival.

It can happen either way.<br /> * Remember that ;go2 probably knows the shop you are looking for by name:<br /> &lt;code&gt; ;go2 fantabulous&lt;/code&gt; then &lt;code&gt; ;send&lt;/code&gt; the number on the list that matches if you get a list.<br /> * TIP For Raffles: look at the ticket carefully AND read the sign on the raffle table. This will tell you if you need to be present in the room when the raffle draws or just in the game somewhere.<br /> * Second Raffle suggestion: use &lt;code&gt;;traffle list&lt;/code&gt; to help you list out the raffles even when you are nowhere near that one table you really can't remember the time on.<br /> * Third Raffle lifesaver: &lt;code&gt;;tune TownCrier&lt;/code&gt; to listen for Raffle Reminders<br /> * Do your general shopping before Merchant Week so you never miss a merchant or forget to buy something after the Merchants and Games wear you out<br /> * Not sure what a new item you bought does?

Some of the shops will have the signs up even if the merchant is not working right then. (Don't be the one asking for a pink thing from Kyrinthe!) '''Read all the signs.'''<br /> * Become familiar with alteration rules if you're going to have that type of work done. The command [[ALTER]] in GemStone goes over lots of what you need to know in great detail. Ask for help if you need on LNet, and if alterations are just NOT one of your life-skills, never fret about asking the merchant for help. Give the merchant an idea of what you want, maybe why you want it in some circumstances, and then give them your trust.<br /> * Use the wiki to plan your shopping!<br /> * Merchants will pick various methods to determine what order, or how many people they will be able to help.<br /> <br /> ==Page Version Info==<br /> (Updated for Ebon Gate 5119)<br /> <br /> [[Category: TownCrier]]<br /> [[Category: Ebon Gate Festival]]<br /> [[Category: Guides]]</div>
