Enchanting potion

2022-08-12T18:05:28Z

JEFFEE421: /* Unlock Potions */ Added details about where the top-end potions are typically sold, and their prices.

'''Enchanting potions''' are used by [[wizard]]s in the [[enchant]]ing process. Enchanting projects no longer require [[#Tempering Potions|tempering potions]] or tempering times. In the current system, A wizard first pours an [[#Unlock Potions|unlock potion]] on the item to unlock it for enchant. Next, if the project is fusion, sanctified, or enhancive gear, it will also require glowing urven'eth potion before a cast can be successful. Items with some flares also have optional Ilvan'eth flare potions that can reduce the enchant difficulty for the item.
{{TOC limit|2}}

==Formula==
Enchant Potions no longer require a roll - you simply pour the item on the object and the potion will take effect.

== Potion Order ==
<section begin=order />When enchanting items with multiple special properties requiring multiple pre-temper potions, the potions must be applied in the following order:

# Ayan'eth Potion - Color depends on enchant - up to +35, 1 pour unlocks +5, after +35, 1 pour unlocks +1
# Urven'eth Potion (fusion/sanctified/enhancive) - 1 Pour IMMEDIATELY BEFORE each cast - wears off
# Ilven'eth Potion - Fiery, Icy, Cloudy, Earthy (flaring) - 1 Pour IMMEDIATELY BEFORE each cast - wears off
<includeonly> (step 2 [[#Enchanting Process for Plain Items|above]])</includeonly><section end=order />

==Tempering Potions==
'''TEMPERING POTIONS ARE NO LONGER REQUIRED FOR ANY ENCHANTING PROJECTS! ENCHANTING PROJECTS NO LONGER REQUIRE TEMPERING TIMES!'''

To convert an existing bromin, aleteh, or grenshol potion, {{boldmono|ASK}} the apprentice NPC in a Wizard Guild's enchanting chamber about {{boldmono|EXCHANGE}}. The apprentice will convert a bromin potion into a copper ayan'eth potion, an aleteth potion into a silver ayan'eth potion, or a grenshol potion into a gold ayan'eth potion, all with the identical number of pours.

>pour my pot on my lea
You pour your potion on the leather.
1d100: 67 + Modifiers: 326 == 393

The faint glow fades from some black and tan full leather.
As the liquid coats the surface of the tan full leather, a misty aura fills the air surrounding it, dancing around your fingers as you gesture over it with a soft incantation spilling from your lips. Small runic symbols flare to life at various points along the surface of the leather, their blurry edges wavering in response to the cadence of your voice and the liquid in these areas absorbing quickly beneath the surface. When the last of the liquid has vanished, the symbols dissipate and the leather appears faded. You scrutinize the tan full leather, notice nothing amiss, and conclude that the tempering seems to have been successful. You estimate that the tan full leather should be ready to enchant in about 13 to 14 days.
Roundtime: 20 sec.
You have 3 doses left.

==Pre-tempering Potions==
'''PRE-TEMPERING POTIONS ARE NOW CALLED POTIONS - TEMPERING ONLY APPLIED TO ENCHANTING, AND IS NO LONGER APPLICABLE WITH THE MOST RECENT ENCHANTING UPDATES'''

<section begin=intro />'''Pre-tempering potions''' are special potions for enchanting items with special properties. Urven'eth Potion '''MUST''' be poured on [[enhancive]] (including socketed fusion) or [[sanctified]] gear before any enchant cast. A test cast will tell you there is a power that must be overcome before you can cast; if you get that message, you MUST use glowing urven'eth potion. The other type of pre-enchant potion is Ilvan'eth potion for elemental [[flare|flaring]] items. Ilvan'eth potions remove the -100 enchant penalty from a flaring item for one cast. For both types of potion, a bottle starts with 5 pours, and each pour works for one +1 cast. These potions will wear off after a short time, so they should only be poured immediately before the wizard casts.

Other types of flares do not have a corresponding pre-temper potion.

=== Messaging ===

The messaging for a pre-temper potion follows a standard form, with each type of pre-temper having a different glow description:

'''Success:
<pre{{log2}}>
>pour my pot on my lea
You pour your potion on the leather.
As the liquid coats the surface of the tan full leather, you murmur a few words of power while gesturing over the leather. The liquid quickly seeps into the tan full leather and leaves nothing behind but a faint glow. You examine the leather closely and, though the faint glow appears to be fading rapidly, are satisfied that it is ready to take a standard tempering potion.
Roundtime: 20 sec.
You have 4 doses left.
</pre>

'''Failure:
<pre{{log2}}>
You pour your potion on the chain.

The liquid absorbs into the green imflass chain too quickly as you fumble to begin your chant and gestures, and the chain is dry in a moment's notice leaving no noticable change.
Roundtime: 20 sec.
You have 3 doses left.
</pre>

After 5 minutes the pre-temper effect will fade and must be re-poured. This messaging also takes a standard form with the same glow description as the pre-temper message:

'''Fade:
<pre{{log2}}>
The faint glow fades from the green imflass chain.

Pup Tent

2022-08-09T20:32:30Z

JEFFEE421: /* Additional Information */ Clarified mechanics after asking for specifics from GM Vanah

'''Pup Tents''' are portable items that players can set up in outdoor, outside of town rooms. There are two tiers.

Tents will collapse after 20 minutes of the owner not being inside. Guests will be tossed out if the tent collapses. The owner has five minutes to fold up the tent before the janitor will clean it up. Tents and items left on the ground in tents are subject to normal game mechanics and will not be returned if lost.

These rooms should not be considered private for vulgarity or OOC reasons.

<table><tr valign="top"><td>
{{TOC limit|2}}

{{itemtier 
|tier= Tier 1
|itemsummary= First tier tents hold 2 people only, including the owner. Tents are not critter proof; you may not {{boldmono|STAND}} your tent while enemies are present, and if a creature enters while the tent is standing, the tent will collapse and knock you, your guest, and your stuff out.
|analyze= You analyze your brown canvas tent and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item type should not change."

The creator has also provided the following information:

This is a standard tent and will be knocked down by hostile creatures. The owner may have one guest. This tent has been unlocked to accommodate an additional five guests.

The standing version of the tent may be altered with a long description, but not a show. The description must include "canvas tent." The interior of the tent may be changed by rare merchants as a delayed service, of for Premium Points via Sadie Scroll.

Exterior:
a brown canvas tent

Interior:
[Vanah's Tent]
Hanging from the tent poles above is an unlit dark silver lantern. A white polar bear skin rug spreads across the ground beside a coiled cream silk basket. The scent of fresh-baked cookies permeates the air.

The room interior can be altered to reference a placed lantern, bedroll, storage container, trash can, or scent. If not referenced, additional sentences will be appended to display them. There is a 511 character limit total on the room descriptions. Any items not referenced will show in the room as "You also see...". The items will not be linked in the room description; you can ANALYZE inside the tent to see the items that are placed there to interact with.

You can STAND the tent to pitch it, and FOLD it to take it down. You can also CLEAN, LEAN, or KNOCK on the tent.

PLACE the following items in your tent to store or remove them from the room:
* Perfume bottles, oil lamps and oils, or incense to impart a temporary fragrance to the tent. This will temporarily override the custom fragrance of fresh-baked cookies, which will be restored the next time the tent is erected. The scent is currently: fresh-baked cookies
* One General Store lantern or torch, which can then be lit to light the room: a glass-paned dark silver lantern is currently placed in the tent.
* One General Store bedroll; meditation mat; prayer rug; or folding chair: a white polar bear skin rug is currently placed in the tent.
* One Pup Tent Storage Container: a coiled cream silk basket is currently placed in the tent.

==Additional Information==

* A tent that is standing can be left unattended for 20 minutes before it will collapse. Be aware that GM advice is to not leave it unattended.
* In its collapsed state (example - a collapsed blue canvas tent), it will be safe for 5 minutes where only the owner can can collect it. After the 5 minute window, 'it is subject to normal loss mechanics' including the janitor or being picked up by another player.
* Anything that causes a tent to collapse, including interactions from critters and other effects will put it in this vulnerable state.
* A tent will not collapse if it is occupied by its owner, unless a creature knocks it over or if the owner dies.
* The pup tent script will check (every 10 seconds) for the presence of its owner (the person who uses STAND to place the tent). If the owner is not in the tent or in the room outside the tent, the tent will collapse after the 20 minutes, even if occupied by other characters.

==Unlocks==
*Trash Can
*Additional Guests (up to 100)
*In town
*Creature Proof

==Storage==
Pup Tent Storage containers can be purchased and hold 5 items up to 10 pounds total. Unlocks are available for additional 5 items and 10 pounds, up to 100 items for 200 pounds. This is not weightless storage; the container is stored in the folded tent and will add to the character's encumbrance if the tent is in the character's inventory.

One floor item and one lightsource can be stored in the tent and will automatically be placed out when the tent is erected.

Duskruin Arena

2022-08-08T19:31:20Z

JEFFEE421: /* Prizes */ Clarified some things and added the DUSKRUIN REWARD command information that debuted in February 2022.

{{TOCright}}
'''Duskruin Arena''' serves as the namesake of the bi-annual [[:Category:Duskruin|Duskruin]] event and is one of the activities available which allows characters the opportunity to gain [[bloodscrip]].

==General Information==
Adventurers can opt to fight in solo matches, or join with up to two peers and fight in 2v2 or 3v3 team matches. Each [[SimuCoin|parchment stamped voucher]], by itself or from a '''stamped voucher booklet''', offers entry into the arena for up to 25 rounds. Additionally, those who run the solo arena can choose to battle in an [[Duskruin Arena#Endless|endless]] match. {{boldmono|[[PRAY]]}} for [[stamina]] and [[mana]] recovery, but there are dangers if used more than 3 times (solo).

===Location===
The arena is located on the eastern side of Bloodriven Village, in the middle of Faida Lane (room 12 on the [[Media:Fest-duskruin-updated-2021.png|map]]).

===Matches===
* '''Solo''' - Participants entering the arena for a solo standard match will face a total of 25 combatants, with every fifth round featuring either a champion or an automaton.
** '''Endless''' - Available only to solo combatants, Endless arena matches begin after the final champion is beaten in during the standard match. No additional bloodscrip is awarded for these matches.
* '''Team''' - Groups of 2 or 3 can run team battles in the Arena, and will be faced with an equal number of opponents to those entering. Team matches no longer offer bonus bloodscrip.

===Prizes===

When your arena match ends, you will automatically receive the [[Bloodscrip]] you earned, possibly a [[WPS smithy]] invite, and a loot package.

* '''[[Bloodscrip]]''' - Maximum achievable amount for solo runs is 300. There is no longer a bonus for completing a team match. The formula for bloodscrip earned is: [10 * Rounds Completed] with an additional 50 bonus for completing all 25 rounds.
* '''[[Items]]''' - One [[weapon]], [[armor]], [[shield]], or [[enhancive]] jewelry item will also be found in your package, unless you change your preferred loot using the DUSKRUIN REWARD command (see below).
* '''[[Metal]] ores''' - Should a (metal) automaton appear in place of a standard champion during a match, an ore of that same type will be available in addition to the arena winnings.
* '''Treasure Trove [[Duskruin Treasure Trove#Raffle Token|Raffle Tokens]]''' - Tokens used to enter the Trove raffles with a 1/250 chance drop rate (1/250 chance).
* '''[[Experience]]''' - Experience is gained from both killing each opponent, and successful completion of all 25 rounds.
* '''[[Experience orb]]s''' - These can be rubbed to gain an additional boost to to experience earned, either as a flat amount, or as a multiplying modifier.
* '''[[WPS smithy]] invite''' - Weight/Pad/Sight your weapons or armor at the WPS Smithy Wagon in [[Bloodriven Village]]. You will not receive an invite if you already have one. Using the EVENT STATS DUSKRUIN command will show your invite status.
* '''[[Duskruin Arena#Titles|Titles]]''' - Different titles are earned based on certain thresholds met in the arena.

Beginning February 2022, there is now an option to change your preferred standard reward. This only applies to the [[Items]] heading listed above, as you will still receive your normal bloodscrip and any of the other possible random rewards listed above.

Use the DUSKRUIN REWARD command to toggle between them:
*DUSKRUIN REWARD LOOT: Receive loot rewards. (Default Setting)
*DUSKRUIN REWARD EXP: Receive instant exp rewards. (15 [[Experience]], instantly absorbed)
*DUSKRUIN REWARD SCRIP: Receive extra bloodscrip rewards. (10 extra bloodscrip)

==Areas of Interest==
===The Celestial Temple===
Introduced during the April 2016 run of [[:Category:Duskruin|Duskruin]], the '''Celestial Temple''' offered additional background information for [[Bloodriven Village]] and [[Duskruin Arena]], and is tied to the collectible system for [[MoonShard pendant]]s. It continues to serve as the place to join completed moons to a pendant, and is also where the '''dwarven archaeologist''' can be found to trade [[bloodrune|flat etched stones]] for bloodscrip.

The Temple holds many secrets within its walls, and offers a way to get a [[Bloodrune Holder]] if one can figure out its puzzle.

Additionally, the [[WPS smithy]], [[forging]] slab smelter, and [[Bloodforge]] can be found within the Temple. The [[Duskruin Dig]] (discontinued) was located here during its runs.

===Bank===
The bank can be found in the upper most level of the Arena and allows adventurers the ability to deposit or withdraw based on the bank of the town travelled from.

===Spectator Seats===
'''Duskruin Arena''' offers areas to {{boldmono|[[Duskruin Arena#Verbs|WATCH]]}} the various bouts and cheer or jeer for any contestant. 2021 saw the addition of more seating in the '''Cheap Seats''', which also offer some food and drinks.

Resist Nature (620)

JEFFEE421: /* Potions */

{{spell
| name = Resist Nature
| number = 620
| mnemonic = RESISTNATURE
| base_dur = 1200s (group version)
| add_dur = 60s (group version)
| span = [[Refreshable]]

__TOC__
'''Resist Nature''' allows the [[Ranger]] to cast a magical shield that provides resistance to a chosen element (heat, cold, steam, nature, or lightning) equal to 20% + 1% per 4 Blessings ranks (50% maximum at 120 ranks via [[enhancive]]s/[[Ascension]]). The duration of this benefit is 1200 + 60s per Ranger spell rank, but the effect will quickly fade for any member who leaves the Ranger's group. The amount of resistance that can be absorbed by the shield before it fades from the group is equal to 100 + ([[Spiritual Mana Control]] skill / 2) [[#Resistance and Mana Absorb Mechanics |DSW]]. Re-casting the spell will replenish this resistance pool.

The spell also allows a Ranger to infuse a prepared wearable magic item created by [[Imbue (614)]] with resistance to a chosen element (heat, cold, steam, nature, or lightning). This item confers the elemental resistance to its bearer. Each tier of Resist Nature bestows a 5% resistance to the element, with a maximum of 5 tiers (25%). The affected item will remain [[imbed|imbeddable/imbedded]], and will no longer crumble when its charges are depleted. An item with no charges may also be re-imbedded with a different spell with the use of a [[grot t'kel potion]]. A character may only have one Resist Nature item active at a time.

;Success Formula
{{math|Ranger Level + 2*WIS bonus + 2*INT bonus + .75*Survival Ranks + MIU ranks + 1.5*Ranger Spell ranks + Harness Power ranks + SMC ranks + SL:B Lore ranks - Tier Modifier - Previous Resistances Modifier + d100 > 100}}
*''Tier Modifier'' is equal to 100 * the '''target''' tier of the attempt.
*''Previous Resistances Modifier'' is equal to 150 * the number of existing T5 resistances on the item.

;Interactions
Resistance provided from a Resist Nature magic item will fully stack with the group version of the spell, up to a maximum of 50%. Resistance provided from armor or cloaks will not stack with either version of Resist Nature – only the strongest resistance will apply. The chance for the item to negate damage will occur regardless if it is providing the highest resistance or not, with one exception -- Resist Nature magic items will not provide ''any'' benefits if their bearer is also wearing armor that has resistance granted by the old Resist Nature. It is advised to remove the legacy Resist Nature from your armor if you are also using a Resist Nature magic item.

== Usage ==
;Group version
* {{boldmono|[[INCANT]] 620 ELEMENT}}, where {{mono|ELEMENT}} is the type of elemental damage you wish to protect against (heat/cold/steam/nature/lightning).

See the [[#Process|Process]] section below for more detailed usage when using Resist Nature to grant elemental resistance to an imbued item.

== Mana Control Benefits ==
Each rank of training in [[Spiritual Mana Control]] contributes directly to the item cast success formula noted above. It also factors into the amount of resistance absorbed by the shield provided by the group spell version, the resolution of which uses {{math|skill/2}} (not ranks).

== Lore Benefits ==
Each rank of training in [[Spiritual Lore, Blessings]] contributes directly to the item cast success formula noted above, as well as increasing the resistance applied by the group spell version at a rate of 1% per 4 ranks.
:{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"

|-
|align="right"|Total resistance applied<br>(group spell version)||20||25||30||35||40||45||50
|}

== Resistance and Mana Absorb Mechanics ==
First, a definition of Damage Severity Weighting (DSW): This is a term that describes how critical damage is dealt throughout GemStone. Simply put, it’s the critical ranking system drawn out to 5 points per crit rank (rank 0-9 mapping to ~0-50 DSW). The Combat Effectiveness Rating (CER) numbers in use with [[Weighting]] and [[Padding]] services are on the same scale.

When the player is struck by damage of the resistant type and the magic item is imbedded with a spell, it absorbs an amount of mana equal to the DSW resisted (i.e. up to 25% of the incoming DSW). Absorbed mana will convert to spell charges based on the cost of the imbedded spell, not to exceed the maximum mana capacity of the item.

Additionally, there is a percentage chance that the damage will be entirely negated, equal to the tier of the resistance (maximum base of 5%). The negation chance is further increased by any additional resistances that have been applied to the item equal to resistance tier / 2.

== Sources of Elemental Damage ==
Resist Nature items will reduce damage inflicted by attacks of its element type. What follows is a short list of examples where damage can be mitigated by an appropriate Resist Nature item. This list is not intended to be comprehensive; you can generally expect a Resist Nature item to universally mitigate damage of its associated type regardless of source.

;Nature
*Offensive Ranger spells (Wild Entropy, Sun Burst, Moonbeam, Spike Thorn, Nature's Fury (all damage types))
*[[Sandstorm]]

;Fire
*Fire/heat flares (from weapons/armor)
*Fire-based bolt and ball spells (e.g. Minor Fire, Major Fire, Fire Spirit)
*Other fire-based spells and effects (e.g Immolation, Weapon Fire, Earthen Fury, Dark Catalyst)
*Fire-based creature attacks (e.g. Lava Golem hurl attacks, Fire Mage death throes)

;Cold
*Cold/ice flares (from weapons/armor)
*cold- and ice-based bolt and ball spells (e.g. Major Cold, Minor Cold)
*Other cold-based spells and effects (e.g. Major E-wave (ice), Earthen Fury (cold))
*Environmental effects (Pinefar/Icemule Trace/Gossamer Valley/Hinterwilds)

;Steam:
*Steam flares (from weapons/armor)
*steam-based bolt spells (e.g. Minor Steam)
*Steam-based environmental effects (e.g. Greymist area effect, damage from the columns in Luukos' Temple)

;Lightning:
*Lightning flares (from weapons/armor)
*Lightning-based bolt and ball spells (e.g. Minor Shock, Major Shock)
*Call Lightning

== Process ==
As the Ranger gains experience, they also earn Nature's Grace points at a 1:1 rate. A total of 50k Nature's Grace can be earned per week, banking up to an overall total of 200k. Nature's Grace points can be spent to attempt to apply resistance to an Imbued magic item, at a cost of 50k/75k/100k/125k/150k based on how many tiers of the spell are currently applied.

First, the Ranger must obtain a resistance potion, as outlined in the section on potions below. The Ranger may then {{boldmono|[[CAST]]}} Resist Nature at the magic item to receive a difficulty check, then {{boldmono|[[POUR]]}} the potion on the item to prepare it, and finally {{boldmono|[[CHANNEL]]}} the spell at the item to attempt to apply the resistance.

The number of doses of the potion required is equal to the tier of the current attempt. If successful, the item then gains a permanent 5% resistance to the chosen element, with a maximum of 25% resistance after 5 successful tiers. A failure will result in a loss of 10% of the points of Nature’s Grace required for the attempt.

An item that has reached tier 5 resistance may have another resistance added, but the difficulty of the project will increase by a flat amount per previous resistance.

Using a larkspur potion on an item affected by Resist Nature will remove the most recent tier applied. If only multiple tier 5 resistances remain, the user will be able to choose which to degrade by {{boldmono|[[TURN]]ing}} the potion.

=== Potions ===
Potions specific to each resistance type can be made by dropping off forageable plants corresponding to the desired damage resistance at the local herbalist NPC found in weathered shacks throughout the world. Each dose of a resistance potion requires five of the same plant. The cost of brewing a potion is 50,000 silver per dose, and the potions do not expire.

*Arboreal Arcanist - Unlocked for Rangers who have successfully cast a fifth tier 5 resistance on a Resist Nature item.

== Additional Information ==
;Legacy Armor Resistance
Armor currently affected by temporary Resist Nature resistance will continue to function, but their charges will be depleted based on the amount of DSW resisted, rather than per instance. For example, if an incoming instance of fire damage with DSW 20 (rank 4 crit) strikes armor with 60% heat resistance, it will lose 20 * .60 = 12 Resistance Life while reducing the damage to DSW 8 (rank 1 crit).

;Capacity Re-Calculation
An item made resistant by 620 may have its mana capacity re-calculated based on the Ranger’s current training by {{boldmono|[[CHANNEL]]ing}} Imbue (614) at it. Only the Ranger who originally created the item is eligible for this renewal, and the item must be depleted of charges before undergoing the process. The cost of renewal is 25,000 Nature’s Grace.

Standard maneuver roll

2022-08-03T20:08:33Z

JEFFEE421: /* SMR v2 */

The '''standard maneuver roll''' system is used to determine the success of most physical actions that do not fall within the [[attack roll]] system. These include special attacks performed by creatures such as the [[tail sweep]] of the [[cave lizard]], [[three-toed tegu]], and the [[snow madrinol]]; a [[soul golem]]'s steam push; an [[Illoke]]'s ground stomp; an [[Ithzir adept]]'s lightning mote; and a [[war griffin]]'s ride of doom.

SMR is an d100 [[open roll]] with many additive modifiers and is successful if the total exceeds 100. The original SMR system typically does not show the exact result of the roll and modifiers. The new system (SMR v2) shows the d100 and the sum of the modifiers.

== SMR v2 ==

'''SMRv2''' is the modern maneuver system, used for all newly implemented maneuvers, including [[Player System Manager]] maneuvers. Any creatures or effects added since December 2016 should be assumed to use SMRv2. Many older creatures have been updated to SMRv2, but not all.

=== SMRv2 Defense ===

The primary defense for the defender is calculated using:

==== Stats ====

* Primary: [[Agility]]
* Secondary: [[Dexterity]] and [[Intuition]]

==== Skills ====

The following skills are weighted equally:

*[[Dodging]]
*[[Combat Maneuvers]]
*[[Perception]]
*[[Physical Fitness]]
*[[Shield Use]] for some maneuvers
*[[Survival]] for some bandit trap cases

==== Race ====

Some races receive bonus effective Dodging ranks for the purpose of SMR v2 defense:

* [[Aelotoi]], [[Dark Elf]], [[Erithian]], [[Half-Elf]], [[Sylvankind]]: 30 ranks
* [[Elf]], [[Forest Gnome]], [[Halfling]]: 60 ranks
* [[Burghal Gnome]]: 80 ranks

==== Defensive Spells and Maneuvers ====

The following spells and maneuvers provide a bonus to SMRv2 defense:

*[[Heroism (215)]]
*[[Prayer (313)]]
*[[Haste (535)]]
*[[Phase (704)]] ([[Sorcerous Lore, Demonology]] ranks increase this bonus.)
*[[Cloak of Shadows (712)]]
*[[Melgorehn's Aura (913)]]
*[[Song of Luck (1006)]] (no direct benefit, but randomly provides a reroll)
*[[Empathic Focus (1109)]]
*[[Cunning Defense]] (provides bonus effective Dodging ranks)
*[[Weapon Specialization]]
*[[Weapon Bonding]]
*[[Holy Weapon (1625)]]
*[[Shield Focus]] (only against [[Sunder Shield]])
*Some spells provide an indirect benefit via [[Dodge]] ranks ([[Mass Blur (911)]], [[Mobility (618)]], [[Song of Mirrors (1019)]]) or other stats/skills involved in SMRv2 defense ([[Assume Aspect (650)]]).

In addition, any spell or effect that improves the stats and skills used for SMR defense (most commonly Dodging) will improve your SMR defense as a result.

====Maneuver Knowledge====

Training in a maneuver via the [[PSM]] or your [[guild]] provides up to a 25% defensive bonus against like level creatures using that maneuver.
* Rank 1: +2%
* Rank 2: +4%
* Rank 3: +8%
* Rank 4: +12%
* Rank 5: +20%
* Guild Master: +25%

Knowledge of the spell or sphere of a magical SMRv2 attack provides up to a 20% defensive bonus against like level creatures using that magical attack.
* Access to the same sphere, but not the same spell circle: +2%
* Access to the spell circle: +8%
* Knowledge of the spell, regardless of ability to cast: +20%

==== Other Factors ====

Not all of these factors are taken into account by all maneuvers.

* Defender's [[stance]]
** SMR attacks from hiding can [[Ambush|pushdown]] the target's stance
* [[Multi_Opponent_Combat#Force_on_Force|Force On Force]]
* [[Level]] difference
* [[wound|Injuries]]
* [[Encumbrance]]
* [[Armor#Action_Penalty|Armor penalty]]
* [[Spirit#Low_Spirit_Penalties|Low spirit]]
* [[status|Status condition]]s
* Holding a shield

=== SMRv2 Offense ===

====Skills====

SMRv2 offensive power is primarily based on skill training per character level.

* 1x training per level is considered baseline. Diminishing returns apply over 1x, with 2x training being 15% more effective than 1x training.
* [[Combat Maneuvers]] is the primary skill for physical maneuvers, including Weapon Techniques and Shield Specializations. Secondary skills may be averaged in to find the total skill value:
** [[Weapon]] skill for Weapon Techniques and maneuvers that utilize a weapon
** [[Shield Use]] for Shield Specializations
** [[Ambush]] for maneuvers from hiding
* [[Spell Research|Spells known]] in the spell circle is the primary skill for magical maneuvers produced with spells. Many SMR spells use [[Spell Aiming]] as a secondary skill.

====Racial Size====

Some races have a bonus or penalty to effective endroll margin on physical maneuvers, based on their size.

* [[Giantman]], [[Half-Krolvin]]: +10
* [[Dwarf]], [[Human]]: +5
* [[Aelotoi]], [[Elf]]: -5
* [[Forest Gnome]]: -10
* [[Halfling]]: -15
* [[Burghal Gnome]]: -20

====Shield Size====

Shield size affects both your chance to hit and effective endroll with shield-based maneuvers.

* Small: +10% to hit, -10% endroll
* Medium: no modifiers
* Large: -5% to hit, +5% endroll
* Tower: -10% to hit, +10% endroll

====Offensive Maneuvers====

Weapon Specialization, Weapon Bonding, Holy Weapon and Shield Focus all provide a 2% per rank bonus for maneuvers using the appropriate weapon or shield.

====Maneuver Knowledge====
Training in a maneuver via the [[PSM]] or your [[guild]] provides up to a 25% offensive bonus against like level creatures with that maneuver.
* Rank 1: +2%
* Rank 2: +4%
* Rank 3: +8%
* Rank 4: +12%
* Rank 5: +20%
* Guild Master: +25%

==== Other Factors ====

Not all of these factors are taken into account by all maneuvers.

* Attacker's [[stance]]
* [[Level]] difference
* [[wound|Injuries]]
* [[Encumbrance]]
* [[Armor#Action_Penalty|Armor penalty]]
* [[Spirit#Low_Spirit_Penalties|Low spirit]]

=== Statistics ===
*[[Dexterity]]
*[[Agility]]

=== Race ===

Certain races receive a bonus to dodging maneuver attacks, with smaller racers generally having the larger bonus. Races not listed on the following table are considered to have an average ability to dodge maneuvers.

{| style="margin-left: 2em;"
|-
| '''Best:''' || Burghal Gnomes
|-
| '''Excellent:''' || Halflings, Forest Gnomes, and Elves
|-
| '''Good:''' || Half-Elves, Dark Elves, Sylvankind, Erithians, and Aelotoi
|}

=== Training ===

{{Side box
|'''Sidebox: Armor Penalty'''

"The armor penalty is a relatively significant factor. For a character exactly trained for full plate at cap, it contributes a penalty a little bit above the difference between 1x and 2x PF. Overtraining in armor to reduce the action penalty and/or using [[Armored Evasion]] can reduce the maneuver penalty by a fairly significant amount, however."

- GM Coase}}

*[[Physical Fitness]] - Physical Fitness is the primary skill for defense against standard creature maneuvers.
*[[Combat Maneuvers]] - Combat Maneuvers is twice as effective as perception in defensive and operates on a sliding scale until they are equal in offensive.
*[[Perception]]
*[[Shield Use]] - Shield Use factors into creature maneuvers that can be blocked by a shield.

Additionally, [[Armor Use]] can provide a bonus by reducing the [[action penalty]].

=== Spells ===

The following spells provide bonuses to ''evading'' maneuvers:
*[[Heroism (215)]]
*[[Prayer (313)]]
*[[Temporal Reversion (540)]] (randomly triggered)
*[[Mobility (618)]]
*[[Phase (704)]]

*[[Empathic Focus (1109)]]
*[[Premonition (1220)]]
*[[Dauntless (1606)]]
*[[Patron's Blessing (1611)]]

The following spells provide bonuses to ''blocking'' maneuvers:

*[[Spirit Barrier (102)]]
*[[Wall of Force (140)]]
*[[Elemental Barrier (430)]]
*[[Elemental Deflection (507)]]

=== Stance ===

Defensive stance is best.

=== Condition ===

A character's present condition also has an effect on their defenses. [[Spirit#Low_Spirit_Penalties|Low spirit]] will penalize the target, as well as certain types of injuries and scars.

The original SMR system is used by some older spells and creature attacks.

=== Statistics ===
*[[Dexterity]]
*[[Agility]]

=== Race ===

Certain races receive a bonus to dodging maneuver attacks, with smaller racers generally having the larger bonus. Races not listed on the following table are considered to have an average ability to dodge maneuvers.

{| style="margin-left: 2em;"
|-
| '''Best:''' || Burghal Gnomes
|-
| '''Excellent:''' || Halflings, Forest Gnomes, and Elves
|-
| '''Good:''' || Half-Elves, Dark Elves, Sylvankind, Erithians, and Aelotoi
|}

=== Training ===

{{Side box
|'''Sidebox: Armor Penalty'''

"The armor penalty is a relatively significant factor. For a character exactly trained for full plate at cap, it contributes a penalty a little bit above the difference between 1x and 2x PF. Overtraining in armor to reduce the action penalty and/or using [[Armored Evasion]] can reduce the maneuver penalty by a fairly significant amount, however."

- GM Coase}}

*[[Physical Fitness]] - Physical Fitness is the primary skill for defense against standard creature maneuvers.
*[[Combat Maneuvers]] - Combat Maneuvers is twice as effective as perception in defensive and operates on a sliding scale until they are equal in offensive.
*[[Perception]]
*[[Shield Use]] - Shield Use factors into creature maneuvers that can be blocked by a shield.

Additionally, [[Armor Use]] can provide a bonus by reducing the [[action penalty]].

=== Spells ===

The following spells provide bonuses to ''evading'' maneuvers:
*[[Heroism (215)]]
*[[Prayer (313)]]
*[[Temporal Reversion (540)]] (randomly triggered)
*[[Mobility (618)]]
*[[Phase (704)]]
*[[Song of Luck (1006)]] (randomly triggered)
*[[Empathic Focus (1109)]]
*[[Premonition (1220)]]
*[[Dauntless (1606)]]
*[[Patron's Blessing (1611)]]

The following spells provide bonuses to ''blocking'' maneuvers:

*[[Spirit Barrier (102)]]
*[[Wall of Force (140)]]
*[[Elemental Barrier (430)]]
*[[Elemental Deflection (507)]]

=== Stance ===

Defensive stance is best.

=== Condition ===

A character's present condition also has an effect on their defenses. [[Spirit#Low_Spirit_Penalties|Low spirit]] will penalize the target, as well as certain types of injuries and scars.

JEFFEE421: /* Wehnimer's Landing */

{{TOCright}} A '''node''' is a location where mana flows more freely than most other locations, which has numerous effects. A node increases [[Experience#Absorbing_experience|experience absorption]], [[Mana|mana regeneration]], and [[spirit regeneration]], and it has effects on various other systems such as the chance of [[Enchant (925)|enchanting]] an item. Nodes are not common locations. While some people believe an empath or cleric can detect a node by the use of {{boldmono|[[MEDITATE (verb)|MEDITATE]]}}, successfully meditating does not always indicate it is a node because non-node areas under a sanctuary effect also allow meditation.

A '''super node''' is the term for a room that gives a slight increase to the rate of [[Experience#Absorbing_experience|experience absorption]] over that of a basic node. Major gathering locations in every major realm have super node status.

==Public Gathering Places By Location==

A town's central gathering point for adventurers is usually a node; in some towns, due to high traffic or custom, multiple gathering points are in use. These include but are not limited to:

===[[CHE]]/[[MHO]]s===
While most nodes and super nodes are public, the Common Room (or equivalent) of a [[CHE]]'s primary house (not annexes) are also super nodes. Most CHE locker annexes in other cities, if not all, are nodes.

[[MHO]] groups could request a super node in place of a regular node for their permanent structure, so long as the node was either in a public room of the structure or the group had a large enough and active enough membership to support the node.

Chronomage Teleportation System

2022-06-24T20:34:12Z

JEFFEE421: /* Chronomage Office Locations */ Removed duplicate RR listing in Zone 1 (it's not in Zone 1, it's isolated)

{{TOCright}}
The '''Chronomage Teleportation System''' is a system that allows characters to easily travel between the major [[town]]s without the hazards and time involved with travelling the distance by foot. The [[Chronomages]] will transport all individuals holding a Chronomage orb in their right hand in the transport waiting room to their destinations every 20 minutes for a flat fee of 100,000 silvers. Travel times during each hour are at :00, :20, and :40. Tickets are sold by a NPC in each town's Chronomage office. You can reduce the cost of tickets by giving the NPC [[gold ring]]s. For local travel between two towns within the same zones, a [[#Chronomage Day Pass|day pass]] may be purchased for 5,000 silvers for unlimited travel between the two towns for 24 hours. '''Chronomage orbs''' can also be earned via [[Login Rewards]] or purchased through the [[SimuCoin]]s Store. A player can {{boldmono|[[GAZE]]}} at an orb to determine its destination, {{boldmono|[[READ]]}} the orb to determine the next departure time, and {{boldmono|[[LOOK]]}} at the orb to determine if you are in a transport waiting room (the orb will emit a faint golden glow).

== Chronomage Office Locations ==

'''Zone 1:'''
*[[Wehnimer's Landing]]: Town Square Southwest, in the basement of the Travel Office (one north from the clerk) (Lich Room# 8635)
*[[Solhaven]]: Beacon Tower on Beacon Ring (up the ramp) (Lich Room# 14358)
*[[Icemule Trace]]: on Wraith Road in the Magical Burrow at the Loci Workshop (Lich Room# 8916)

'''Zone 2:'''
*[[Cysaegir]]: southwest of Linsandrych Common
*[[Ta'Illistim]]: southwestern corner of the Gateyard (Lich Room# 13169)
*[[Ta'Vaalor]]: southwest of Victory Gate, in a turret (Lich Room# 5883)

'''Isolated:'''
*[[Kharam Dzu]]: across the footbridge at the deadend of Copper Avenue. (Lich Room# 12790)
*[[River's Rest]]: down the tracks near the log outside of the town. The waiting room is through the bore on the stump. (Lich Room# 16115)
*[[Zul Logoth]]: building near the Bard's Guild (Lich Room# 997)

==Chronomage Day Pass==
A '''Chronomage day pass''' costs 5,000 silvers and allows a character to travel unlimited between two towns within the same teleportation zone for 24 hours.

;Example (Wehnimer's Landing to Icemule Trace)
<pre{{log2}}>
Weyneidra the clerk says to you, "A roundtrip day pass to Icemule Trace will cost you 5000 silvers. ASK me again in the next minute if you wish to purchase it."

Weyneidra the clerk accepts your silvers.
Weyneidra the clerk quickly hands you a Chronomage day pass.

Bold calligraphy states simply, "This pass entitles the original purchaser to one (1) day of unlimited travel between the towns of Icemule Trace and Wehnimer's Landing, commencing at the time of purchase. To travel, present yourself at the Chronomage station in either town, hold this pass in hand, and RAISE it."

>raise my pass
As you go to raise your pass, you realize that this is not a Chronomage teleportation waiting room.
>n
[Wehnimer's Shop, Waiting Area]
Cushioned ladder-backed chairs surround a plush, snow white bear rug. Affixed in the eye sockets are a pair of brilliant dragonsbreath sapphires and long, slightly yellowed pieces of ivory serve as the fangs. Edged in gold braiding, the tapestry on the back wall depicts several males encircling a kneeling individual as they work together to wrestle an object from his grasp.
Obvious exits: south
>raise my pass
You raise your pass up, presenting it for inspection.
Suddenly, a silver mist swirls about you. Golden arcs streak across your vision, making it impossible to discern anything beyond the spinning silver mist. Gradually, the whirlwind of color subsides and it becomes obvious that your surroundings have changed.

[Loci Workshop, Antechamber]
A granite worktable, clearly a relic of the workshop's past, stands immovably at the center of the room. Positioned behind the massive slab of granite and blocking the passageway that leads further into the shop is a bulky, heavily robed figure. Freshly strewn rushes spotted with dried lavender and rosemary cover the floor, their scent failing to combat the lingering, acrid odor of smoke. The aroma is not aided by the pungent smell of fish oil burning in the lamps suspended from the ceiling. You also see a finely-dressed halfling.
Obvious exits: out
</pre>

==Clerk Questions==
<pre{{log2}}>
>'''ask halfling about chronomage'''
A finely-dressed halfling peers at you and asks, "What about the Chronomages? I've never met one myself, but I hear they aren't to be trifled with. They're the ones who anchored the magic that these tickets use."

>'''ask halfling about destinations'''
A finely-dressed halfling says, "I currently sell travel tickets to Wehnimer's Landing, Solhaven, River's Rest, Zul Logoth, Ta'Illistim, Ta'Vaalor, Cysaegir, Kharam-Dzu and Icemule Trace."

>'''ask clerk about <specific town name>'''
Weyneidra the clerk says to you, "A roundtrip day pass to <named town> will be <"free of charge", if you have gold ring credits>. ASK me again in the next minute if you wish to claim it."

>'''ask halfling about disabled'''
A finely-dressed halfling looks overhead thoughtfully, then turns to you and says, "I've been told that all travel is working properly."

>'''ask halfling about gold ring'''
With a wide grin, a finely-dressed halfling turns to you and says, "I am quite interested in gold rings. I'm even willing to discount the price of a travel ticket or pass by 5000 silvers for each ring you give me. You currently have no credits towards the purchase of a travel ticket."

>'''ask halfling about help'''
A finely-dressed halfling turns to you and says, "My job is to sell you a ticket. With one of my tickets you can travel about Elanthia via the magic of the Chronomages. Ask me about a certain location if you wish to know more about it, or you can ASK me about destinations and I will tell you more details about where you can travel. You can also ask me about disabled locations, gold rings, departures, times and tickets."

>'''ask halfling about price'''
A finely-dressed halfling grins and says, "Tickets for a single long distance teleport are priced at 100000 silvers. Local citizens will receive a ten percent discount. Partial citizens will receive a five percent discount."

A finely-dressed halfling continues, "Day passes for linked teleport destinations are priced at 5000 silvers. There are no citizenship discounts for these."

>'''ask halfling about ticket'''
A finely-dressed halfling clearly says, "The way a long-distance travel ticket works is simple. Hold it in your hand inside the waiting room and when it is time you will be transported to your destination. If you are unsure whether you are in a waiting room, look at your ticket. It will glow if you are in the correct place. You cannot travel with a ticket purchased by another. Also, there are times when travel to certain locations will become unstable and will not work. You can read your ticket to check when the next transport will take place and you can gaze at your ticket to check its destination."

A finely-dressed halfling continues, "Day passes can be used at will. Simply hold the pass inside the waiting room and then RAISE it when you are ready to travel."

>'''ask halfling about time'''
A finely-dressed halfling takes a moment to think before saying, "The next distant departure will be in # minutes, and I can sell you a travel ticket right now if you like."

>'''ask halfling about departure'''
A finely-dressed halfling pauses for a moment before he says, "The next distant departure will be in # minutes."

The Chronomages replaced the [[ICE age|I.C.E. Age]] guilds called [[Navigators|The Navigators]], which is why gold ring robberies are called getting "Navved." The messaging is still more consistent with the archaic history.

Locate Person (116)

2022-05-04T21:03:58Z

JEFFEE421: /* Messaging */

{{spell
| mnemonic = LOCATE
| duration = Instantaneous
| type = Utility
| subtype = Scrying
| skill = None
| components = any [[player character]]
| availability = All
| navigation = {{minor spiritual navigation}}
}}
'''Locate Person''' may be be cast on any [[player character]] and and will give a brief vision of where they are, provided they are in the open and within the same [[realm]]. The spell's range can be extended through Spiritual Lore (see below: [[#Lore Benefits]]).

When cast within the spell's effective range, this spell returns text as if someone in the same room as the target used the {{boldmono|[[LOOK]]}} verb, as it shows the room title, description, individuals present, creatures and items present, and the obvious exits of the room. In addition, everyone in the target character's room will see the text: "Suddenly you have the strangest feeling that you are being watched. The feeling fades as quickly as it came."

If the person being located is outside the spell's range, the target will not sense the spell, and the caster will receive an unique out of range message based on the realm the target is within.

Casting the spell on hidden or invisible targets will return a message along the lines of, "What were you referring to?"

Certain rooms and the spell [[Unpresence (204)]] prevent a target from being located, but the spell returns a different message (blocked by an "unseen force") versus if the target was out-of-range or hidden. The entire area beyond the rolaren gate near [[Icemule Trace]] is one such area, as are all [[warcamp]]s.

''If you know your geography, this should help you find someone pretty quickly. This spell sometimes fails to work in certain locations, due to magical instabilities in that area.''
__NOTOC__
== Lore Benefits ==

[[Spiritual Lore, Summoning]] allows the caster to locate more distant targets.
*At 30 ranks, the caster can view targets in adjacent realms
*At 60 ranks, the caster can view targets in near-adjacent realms
*At 90 ranks, the caster can view targets in far realms

(An example of adjacent realms is Wehnimer's Landing to Shadow Valley; near-adjacent is Wehnimer's Landing to Icemule Trace; and far is Wehnimer's Landing to Ta'Illistim. Targets in the [[Elemental Confluence]] are considered out-of-range for any caster not inside the same confluence, regardless of lore training; messaging will indicate the realm from which they entered.)

In addition, at 30 ranks of Summoning lore, if the caster is present in a room where someone is located, they are able to trace back the magic and identify the origin if they cast the spell with no target within 30 seconds.

Bind (214)

| subtype = [[Warding]]
| target = Single
| interval = One-Shot

}}

'''Bind''' is a [[warding]] spell that calls spirits to hold a victim in place for a long period of time. [[Immobilized (status)|Bound]] victims cannot be dragged or moved in any manner and is incapable of doing so herself, thus negating nearly all maneuver defense and defense granted from the [[parry]] and [[evade]] portions of the Parry/Block/Evade system.

Not all creatures will be affected by Bind, and certain skills allow player characters to break free from Bind's effects, such as [[Berserk]].

The mana cost is 14 + 1 for every 8 levels over 14 of the target, capped at 40.

[[Spiritual Lore, Summoning]] allows the caster to locate more distant targets.
*At 30 ranks, the caster can view targets in adjacent realms
*At 60 ranks, the caster can view targets in near-adjacent realms
*At 90 ranks, the caster can view targets in far realms

(An example of adjacent realms is Wehnimer's Landing to Shadow Valley; near-adjacent is Wehnimer's Landing to Icemule Trace; and far is Wehnimer's Landing to Ta'Illistim. Targets in the [[Elemental Confluence]] are considered out-of-range for any caster not inside the same confluence, regardless of lore training; messaging will indicate the realm from which they entered.)

In addition, at 30 ranks of Summoning lore, if the caster is present in a room where someone is located, they are able to trace back the magic and identify the origin if they cast the spell with no target within 30 seconds.

== Blocked Areas ==

*[[Glaes Caverns]]
*[[Maaghara Tower]]
*[[Stronghold|Thanatoph Bowels]]
*[[Warcamp]]s

== Messaging ==

These visions are shown if the target is too far away and the caster cannot see the exact room.

Can take multiple attempts to remove from a container:
<pre{{log2}}>
>get ob quar
You feel a strange fascination steal over you as your hand touches the oblivion quartz.
For some reason you can't get that.
</pre>

Has a very long script when you do get it that can end with various effects including gem destruction and fried nerves at end and proning, stunning, and forcing stance while it is running:
<pre{{log2}}>
>get ob quar
You remove a shard of oblivion quartz from in your iron strongbox.

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, your fascination growing into more than idle curiosity, quickly becoming an unnaturally driving need! In the next heartbeat, a cloud of nausea bursts from the stone's heart, quickly wrapping writhing tendrils of sickness around your face like a vaporous octopus! As your insides churn and heave, you claw desperately at your face and throat, trying to tear the terrifying thing away, but your hands pass right through it. As the tendrils tighten, you feel your breathing passages close and the air being sucked out of your chest.

You gasp for air, but you find nothing to ease your burning lungs. Your mouth opens repeatedly, desperately seeking something, anything, to stave off the inevitable onslaught of oblivion.

You start to breathe easier.

As you study the oblivion quartz's irregularities, you especially notice its chaotic patterns. They create a visual illusion, shifting and contracting as you scrutinize them.

A danged cloud of gnats suddenly surrounds your face. The little pests can certainly sneak up on a person! You notice the nasty things trying to forge a path up your nostrils.

You try to shoo the cloud away by flailing your arms, but to no avail. The diminutive varmints begin to dodge your rapidly blinking eyelids and gain the nice, wet surface of your eyes in a multi-gnatted strike force.

The more you flail and splutter and blink, the thicker the cloud of insects becomes! You hop around convulsively, but soon, finding that no relief, you switch to tactics of ducking and dodging with knees bent.

As if reading your mind, the little demons cling doggedly to your every move. Your ears roar with the loud whine of their wings like an amorous mosquito's serenade amplified a thousand-fold.

You burst into a frenetic dance, trying desperately to evade the cloud before they completely cover you in a black, pulsing second skin!

Suddenly, the bugs are gone! They simply disappear. As you try to catch your breath, you notice the air feels clean...and wonderful, minus the pollution of tiny, flying, villainous, infernal, obnoxious little pieces of...

You realize you are perhaps over-reacting just a bit to a cloud of gnats.

>stow quar
You find yourself unable to pull your attention away from the quartz in your hand.

As you gaze into the quartz, the glory of its anomalous heart entrances you. Within those depths lie mystery and power, evidenced by tiny glimpses of light floating within the firmament of the oblivion quartz's interior.

Slowly, you notice a delicious, beckoning sensation uncurl from inside the quartz, one that had been slyly hidden before now. You fix your thoughts on it before it can hide again, pinning its location so that you can draw near. As you extend your arms into the shadowy cloud surrounding your objective, it seeps into your mind and becomes you.

Darkness clouds your eyes. You abruptly know the hopelessness and inevitability of death and decay as if they are an extension of yourself. You see everything you have known throughout your life as two-dimensional images that curl around the edges and burn away into ash. Despair overcomes you with a suffocating finality.

Finally, the horrible feeling of despair begins to fray like a flimsy, decaying piece of shroud linen. It fades and disappears, leaving in its place a memory as black and horrible as death.

As you study the quartz, noting its striations and complexities, its strange aura draws you closer, curling fingers of fascination around your mind. Your surroundings fade, becoming unimportant. In fact, nothing has meaning other than the mysteries to be found waiting within the beckoning heart of the oblivion quartz.

Suddenly, you fall, plunging down into the quartz! Its brown luminosity feels like icy water against your skin, robbing you of your breath with an involuntary gasp, and quickly filling your nose and mouth. You try to resist the impulse to flail and thrash, concentrating on an attempt to figure out which way is up, however, the sense of drowning threatens to overcome your thoughts with panic. But there is no 'up'...or for that matter any direction at all. You are like a fly caught in amber and you realize with dread that there is no escape.

Abruptly, the suffocating sensation of being trapped in the quartz evaporates, leaving you shuddering and cold in its wake.

During a casual perusal of the oblivion quartz you hold, a pinpoint of light within its depths catches your eye. It is no more than a faint flicker, however, how could it be imprisoned inside the drab stone? It was not just a reflection either; at least it didn't seem to be. Was it?

As you examine the quartz more closely, you notice the horrifying fact that the thing has attached itself to your hand. Slowly, the rough, rocky material transcends its boundaries and spreads across your palm. As it expands, it gains momentum, and as your skin is transformed, pain erupts in an excruciating blossom.

You try to drop the cursed thing, but quickly discover the fact that once transmuted, the affected appendage is frozen and unresponsive -- useless -- just like stone.

A band of searing pain crosses your chest, making the attempt to catch your breath an agony. You feel a terrifying prickle as the invasive scourge reaches your neck and works its way upward. Your throat closes and breathing is no longer within your ability.

Your eyesight fades as you feel the darkness overtake you.

[Forced to stance offensive.]

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, finding its complex striations unusually arresting. Although it is a somewhat drab, dun color, you somehow know there are fascinating anomalies waiting to be found there, if you just concentrate...all...your...energy...

Something pulses deep within the quartz. It pulses a second time, and again, as you realize you are staring at your own heart beating there inside the stone. How could you have not realized this before now?! This is a dangerous situation. Your horror grows as your thoughts follow the undeniable logic along its course.

Why, anyone could steal this quartz from you. They're probably already making plans to do so. And once they have it...well, they'll have complete control. You'll be a mere puppet, shackled to the tenuous prospects of the quartz's vulnerability. A slave at the hands of anyone who happens to hold the quartz, your life's receptacle.

Fear and panic threaten to completely overcome your senses as you ponder the hopeless future, and watch the heart within the stone mete out its feeble rhythm.

Abruptly, you exhale in an explosive burst, realizing your lungs are screaming for air! A haze lifts from your eyes. When you search the heart of the quartz again, you see nothing but a simple stone, and a rather uninspiring one at that. As the frightening thoughts dissipate, you are left with a confusing memory that defies explanation.

As you study the quartz, noting its striations and complexities, its strange aura draws you closer, curling fingers of fascination around your mind. Your surroundings fade, becoming unimportant. In fact, nothing has meaning other than the mysteries to be found waiting within the beckoning heart of the oblivion quartz.

Suddenly, you fall, plunging down into the quartz!

Abruptly, the suffocating sensation of being trapped in the quartz evaporates, leaving you shuddering and cold in its wake.

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, noting the strange way its interior cosmos takes on an illusion of depth and dimension. With a start, you hear a whisper close to your ear address you, drawing out your name with its sibilant tone, "Chivalrous..."

You glance around, peering over both shoulders, surprised by the voice's unexpected and near presence, but no one is close enough to have been its author. As you return your gaze to the quartz, the voice hails you again, "Chivalrous..." This time it continues, "They will pay!"

Uncertainty rushes through you as you hear the whispered entreaties become more and more deranged. "They don't understand. They are all planning...always planning, scheming. It will do them no good!"

The whisper gets louder as it grows more menacing, and soon seems to be coming from all around you. "We are not fooled, oh noooo. Never fooled, although they think we are. They won't laugh forever though. They will scream then. We will show them..." The whispers send chills skittering up your spine, while at the same time, the hollow words slowly begin to make sense.

You gasp suddenly! In your distraction, you have let the quartz fall from your hands, and you clutch at it, trying desperately to catch it. Your hand clasps on empty air, and the quartz shatters as it strikes the ground, leaving nothing but dust and a few tiny shards where it lands. As you stare blankly at the residue, you realize the voice has disappeared.

Locate Person (116)

2022-04-06T20:44:04Z

JEFFEE421:

{{spell
| mnemonic = LOCATE
| duration = Instantaneous
| type = Utility
| subtype = Scrying
| skill = None
| components = any [[player character]]
| availability = All
| navigation = {{minor spiritual navigation}}
}}
'''Locate Person''' may be be cast on any [[player character]] and and will give a brief vision of where they are, provided they are in the open and within the same [[realm]]. The spell's range can be extended through Spiritual Lore (see below: [[#Lore Benefits]]).

When cast within the spell's effective range, this spell returns text as if someone in the same room as the target used the {{boldmono|[[LOOK]]}} verb, as it shows the room title, description, individuals present, creatures and items present, and the obvious exits of the room. In addition, everyone in the target character's room will see the text: "Suddenly you have the strangest feeling that you are being watched. The feeling fades as quickly as it came."

If the person being located is outside the spell's range, the target will not sense the spell, and the caster will receive an unique out of range message based on the realm the target is within.

Casting the spell on hidden or invisible targets will return a message along the lines of, "What were you referring to?"

Certain rooms and the spell [[Unpresence (204)]] prevent a target from being located, but the spell returns a different message (blocked by an "unseen force") versus if the target was out-of-range or hidden. The entire area beyond the rolaren gate near [[Icemule Trace]] is one such area, as are all [[warcamp]]s.

''If you know your geography, this should help you find someone pretty quickly. This spell sometimes fails to work in certain locations, due to magical instabilities in that area.''
__NOTOC__
== Lore Benefits ==

[[Spiritual Lore, Summoning]] allows the caster to locate more distant targets.
*At 30 ranks, the caster can view targets in adjacent realms
*At 60 ranks, the caster can view targets in near-adjacent realms
*At 90 ranks, the caster can view targets in far realms

(An example of adjacent realms is Wehnimer's Landing to Shadow Valley; near-adjacent is Wehnimer's Landing to Icemule Trace; and far is Wehnimer's Landing to Ta'Illistim. Targets in the [[Elemental Confluence]] are considered out-of-range for any caster not inside the same confluence, regardless of lore training; messaging will indicate the realm from which they entered.)

In addition, at 30 ranks of Summoning lore, if the caster is present in a room where someone is located, they are able to trace back the magic and identify the origin if they cast the spell with no target within 30 seconds.

== Blocked Areas ==

*[[Glaes Caverns]]
*[[Maaghara Tower]]
*[[Stronghold|Thanatoph Bowels]]
*[[Warcamp]]s

== Messaging ==

These visions are shown if the target is too far away and the caster cannot see the exact room.

Diamond

2022-04-02T10:34:06Z

JEFFEE421:

'''Diamonds''', a form of condensed carbon, are the hardest substance on earth. While a [[ruby]] or [[sapphire]] is a 9 on Moh's hardness scale, and a diamond is a 10, a diamond is actually several times harder than a ruby, as Moh's hardness scale is relative to other substances.<sup>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond]</sup>

Diamonds of all types are associated with [[Eorgina]], though the [[Diamond#a faceted black diamond|black diamond]] is often considered to be her gem, and many [[Elf|elves]] avoid wearing black diamonds unless they specifically intend on representing her. Diamonds resist channeling multiple forms of [[mana]] through it at once, making it unsuitable for sorcery. However, it is effective for [[spiritual]] and [[elemental]] magic when channeled separately.

== List of Diamonds ==
{{Gem disclaimer}}
{{gem
|name = a blue diamond
|rarity = Extremely Rare
|value = 3500 - 5500
|location = [[Teras Isle]]
|description = Extremely hard, with a multitude of sharp edges and points, a blue diamond is one of the rarer gems in Elanthia. In this, its uncut state, a blue diamond is a translucent white with just a hint of pale blue throughout. Its waxy sheen softly reflects the light, and the diamond feels much heavier than other non-diamond stones of its same size.}}

{{gem
|name = a dragon's-tear diamond
|rarity = Extremely Rare
|value = 5000
|location = [[Elven Nations]]
|description = Despite the chips to its delicately faceted surface, the dragon's-tear diamond sparkles like a miniature star. At the heart of the jewel, shades of blue mingle with cool silvery light and minute flecks of scarlet to create a tiny, brilliant inferno. Whenever light glances across the exterior at certain angles, the stone reflects back an intense shade of sky blue instead of ordinary white.}}

Holding the gem while walking through the Sphere in the Rift will cause it to absorb the spirit loss effects.

As a black tendril of anti-mana reaches toward you, it seems to be drawn to the black diamond in your hand. The tendril rapidly wends away within the diamond, disappearing into the gem's depths...

|rarity = Extremely Rare
|value = 5000

|rarity = Extremely Rare

|location = [[Elven Nations]]
|description = The small, hard gem might be mistaken in the dark for a pebble, but anyone bringing it into the light would swiftly see the error in perception. Even in its uncut state, the maernstrike diamond is unmistakable. While the typical diamond is clear and white in hue with only a trace of yellow, the maernstrike diamond bears no trace of white whatsoever -- instead, an inferno of brilliant rainbow hues blazes at the center of the stone, and all parts of the jewel contain some portion of that fire. Shafts of emerald, scarlet, cerulean, violet, silver, and gold radiate from the spectacular core in a display of beauty muted only partially by the stone's rough, uncut state.}}

{{gem
|name = an uncut star-of-Tamzyrr diamond
|rarity = Extremely Rare
|value = 5000
|location = [[Solhaven]]<br>[[River's Rest]]
|description = Rubbed smooth by the action of sand and wave, an uncut star-of-Tamzyrr diamond is a misshapen lump. For the most part, the gem is perfectly translucent, its clarity only marred by light distortion due to the uneven shape. At the center, however, faint sky blue tendrils like frozen electrical discharge radiate outward in all directions.}}

{{gem
|name = an unfaceted mistvein diamond
|rarity = Extremely Rare
|value = 5000

|description = The small chunk of pale diamond is laced with shimmering strands of misty silver. Each metallic inclusion is composed of hundreds of miniscule flecks that reflect light like a hazy web of tiny dewdrops.}}

{{gem
|name = a white-point star diamond
|rarity =
|value =
|location = [[Sanctum of Scales]]
|description = The tiny diamond is surpassingly brilliant, its clear color enhanced with a shattered rainbow of lights cast by the facets within. No larger than a child's thumbnail, it is like starlight given crystalline form}}

{{gem
|name = a golden firemote orb
|rarity = Extremely rare
|value = 9000
|location = [[The Rift]]
|description = The firemote orb is a fist-sized perfect sphere filled with luminescent colors. The hues shift as the orb is turned, melting into neighboring tones and almost pulsing with an inner fire. Small sparkles of light -- tiny pinpricks so small they're almost invisible -- flicker every so often within the orb's interior, like stars within a multicolored sky.}}
Looking at the orb will cause one of these to happen:
<pre{{log2}}>
The firemote orb glows more intensely, as if instigated by your familiar gaze. Colors shift and turn, circling like a miniature hurricane. As you watch with curiosity, a soft voice unfolds within your thoughts. It whispers, the words a jumble you cannot understand, however its tone is lyrical and sweet. As the sound fades away to nothing, the hues within the orb slow to their normal luminous pattern.
Roundtime: 5 sec.

You gaze at the multi-colored firemote orb, noting its interior pools of vibrant color. For something so small, you are struck by the complexity of the different patterns and combinations of tone. The movement within is also somewhat astounding, considering the orb's size.

The miniscule pinpricks of light seem to acquire distinct rhythmic patterns at times, another mystery in itself.

As you study the firemote orb, you watch fine fingers of bright crimson invade neighboring pools of gold and purple. Blue mixes with yellow, sending a wave of green to collide with a milky white swathe moving around the sphere's side.

The clouds of color are hypnotic, changing continually in a slow blur, and reminds you of watching waves recede across a beach. As your thoughts drift in reflection, a sparkle of light catches your attention. It seems stronger than the occasional flickers normally dusting the shifting hues with their shimmer. The tiny glimmer moves through the color tones leaving eddies and swirls in its path, like someone walking through a colorful pool of water.

In the blink of an eye, the pinprick of light disappears, leaving a barely discernable trail marking its passage across the firmament enclosed within the orb.
Roundtime: 10 sec.

Studying the orb, you notice the patterns of color turn more and more slowly. They finally stop, pausing like a breath held in anticipation of some momentous event. Then, they part ever so slightly, revealing a flickering pinprick of emerald-toned light hovering within the colorful flood. As it appears, you hear a whisper in your mind, intoning a tumbled chorus of soft sound, none of which makes sense.

Just as you think you're beginning to understand the torrent of sound, the colors inside the orb begin to move once more, quickly obscuring both the sparkle of light and the lyrical whispers.
Roundtime: 10 sec.

Bright veins of color coalesce in a slow dance with the heart of the small sphere. They shift and turn, one moment looking like a tiny hurricane, and the next, like a rainbow-hued vortex. While the movement is very slow, it still conveys a sense of incredible force held miraculously in the fragile shell.

You gaze at the multi-colored firemote orb, noting its interior pools of vibrant color. For something so small, you are struck by the complexity of the different patterns and combinations of tone. The movement within is also somewhat astounding, considering the orb's size.

The miniscule pinpricks of light seem to acquire distinct rhythmic patterns at times, another mystery in itself.

Within the heart of the firemote orb, you notice a small flurry of activity, as two pools of variegated color push against each other as though in a tiny contest of wills. One finally gives in and playfully rushes away in the other direction. Against that backdrop, a single flicker of light blossoms into life. It hovers around the two eddies, swaying languidly first toward one, then toward the other.

In the next moment, a rampaging wave of scarlet washes over the orb's entire interior. As it engulfs all in its path, you hear a small whisper of sound within your mind. Its crystalline tone is pure and beautiful. It tinkles, like a wind-chime with perfectly toned notes. It echoes and fades. It reminds you of laughter.
Roundtime: 10 sec.

<pre{{log2}}>
>get ob quar
You remove a shard of oblivion quartz from in your iron strongbox.

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, your fascination growing into more than idle curiosity, quickly becoming an unnaturally driving need! In the next heartbeat, a cloud of nausea bursts from the stone's heart, quickly wrapping writhing tendrils of sickness around your face like a vaporous octopus! As your insides churn and heave, you claw desperately at your face and throat, trying to tear the terrifying thing away, but your hands pass right through it. As the tendrils tighten, you feel your breathing passages close and the air being sucked out of your chest.

You gasp for air, but you find nothing to ease your burning lungs. Your mouth opens repeatedly, desperately seeking something, anything, to stave off the inevitable onslaught of oblivion.

You start to breathe easier.

As you study the oblivion quartz's irregularities, you especially notice its chaotic patterns. They create a visual illusion, shifting and contracting as you scrutinize them.

A danged cloud of gnats suddenly surrounds your face. The little pests can certainly sneak up on a person! You notice the nasty things trying to forge a path up your nostrils.

You try to shoo the cloud away by flailing your arms, but to no avail. The diminutive varmints begin to dodge your rapidly blinking eyelids and gain the nice, wet surface of your eyes in a multi-gnatted strike force.

The more you flail and splutter and blink, the thicker the cloud of insects becomes! You hop around convulsively, but soon, finding that no relief, you switch to tactics of ducking and dodging with knees bent.

As if reading your mind, the little demons cling doggedly to your every move. Your ears roar with the loud whine of their wings like an amorous mosquito's serenade amplified a thousand-fold.

You burst into a frenetic dance, trying desperately to evade the cloud before they completely cover you in a black, pulsing second skin!

Suddenly, the bugs are gone! They simply disappear. As you try to catch your breath, you notice the air feels clean...and wonderful, minus the pollution of tiny, flying, villainous, infernal, obnoxious little pieces of...

You realize you are perhaps over-reacting just a bit to a cloud of gnats.

>stow quar
You find yourself unable to pull your attention away from the quartz in your hand.

As you gaze into the quartz, the glory of its anomalous heart entrances you. Within those depths lie mystery and power, evidenced by tiny glimpses of light floating within the firmament of the oblivion quartz's interior.

Slowly, you notice a delicious, beckoning sensation uncurl from inside the quartz, one that had been slyly hidden before now. You fix your thoughts on it before it can hide again, pinning its location so that you can draw near. As you extend your arms into the shadowy cloud surrounding your objective, it seeps into your mind and becomes you.

Darkness clouds your eyes. You abruptly know the hopelessness and inevitability of death and decay as if they are an extension of yourself. You see everything you have known throughout your life as two-dimensional images that curl around the edges and burn away into ash. Despair overcomes you with a suffocating finality.

Finally, the horrible feeling of despair begins to fray like a flimsy, decaying piece of shroud linen. It fades and disappears, leaving in its place a memory as black and horrible as death.

As you study the quartz, noting its striations and complexities, its strange aura draws you closer, curling fingers of fascination around your mind. Your surroundings fade, becoming unimportant. In fact, nothing has meaning other than the mysteries to be found waiting within the beckoning heart of the oblivion quartz.

Suddenly, you fall, plunging down into the quartz! Its brown luminosity feels like icy water against your skin, robbing you of your breath with an involuntary gasp, and quickly filling your nose and mouth. You try to resist the impulse to flail and thrash, concentrating on an attempt to figure out which way is up, however, the sense of drowning threatens to overcome your thoughts with panic. But there is no 'up'...or for that matter any direction at all. You are like a fly caught in amber and you realize with dread that there is no escape.

Abruptly, the suffocating sensation of being trapped in the quartz evaporates, leaving you shuddering and cold in its wake.

During a casual perusal of the oblivion quartz you hold, a pinpoint of light within its depths catches your eye. It is no more than a faint flicker, however, how could it be imprisoned inside the drab stone? It was not just a reflection either; at least it didn't seem to be. Was it?

As you examine the quartz more closely, you notice the horrifying fact that the thing has attached itself to your hand. Slowly, the rough, rocky material transcends its boundaries and spreads across your palm. As it expands, it gains momentum, and as your skin is transformed, pain erupts in an excruciating blossom.

You try to drop the cursed thing, but quickly discover the fact that once transmuted, the affected appendage is frozen and unresponsive -- useless -- just like stone.

A band of searing pain crosses your chest, making the attempt to catch your breath an agony. You feel a terrifying prickle as the invasive scourge reaches your neck and works its way upward. Your throat closes and breathing is no longer within your ability.

Your eyesight fades as you feel the darkness overtake you.

[Forced to stance offensive.]

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, finding its complex striations unusually arresting. Although it is a somewhat drab, dun color, you somehow know there are fascinating anomalies waiting to be found there, if you just concentrate...all...your...energy...

Something pulses deep within the quartz. It pulses a second time, and again, as you realize you are staring at your own heart beating there inside the stone. How could you have not realized this before now?! This is a dangerous situation. Your horror grows as your thoughts follow the undeniable logic along its course.

Why, anyone could steal this quartz from you. They're probably already making plans to do so. And once they have it...well, they'll have complete control. You'll be a mere puppet, shackled to the tenuous prospects of the quartz's vulnerability. A slave at the hands of anyone who happens to hold the quartz, your life's receptacle.

Fear and panic threaten to completely overcome your senses as you ponder the hopeless future, and watch the heart within the stone mete out its feeble rhythm.

Abruptly, you exhale in an explosive burst, realizing your lungs are screaming for air! A haze lifts from your eyes. When you search the heart of the quartz again, you see nothing but a simple stone, and a rather uninspiring one at that. As the frightening thoughts dissipate, you are left with a confusing memory that defies explanation.

As you study the quartz, noting its striations and complexities, its strange aura draws you closer, curling fingers of fascination around your mind. Your surroundings fade, becoming unimportant.

Abruptly, the suffocating sensation of being trapped in the quartz evaporates, leaving you shuddering and cold in its wake.

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, noting the strange way its interior cosmos takes on an illusion of depth and dimension. With a start, you hear a whisper close to your ear address you, drawing out your name with its sibilant tone, "Chivalrous..."

You glance around, peering over both shoulders, surprised by the voice's unexpected and near presence, but no one is close enough to have been its author. As you return your gaze to the quartz, the voice hails you again, "Chivalrous..." This time it continues, "They will pay!"

Uncertainty rushes through you as you hear the whispered entreaties become more and more deranged. "They don't understand. They are all planning...always planning, scheming. It will do them no good!"

The whisper gets louder as it grows more menacing, and soon seems to be coming from all around you. "We are not fooled, oh noooo. Never fooled, although they think we are. They won't laugh forever though. They will scream then. We will show them..." The whispers send chills skittering up your spine, while at the same time, the hollow words slowly begin to make sense.

You gasp suddenly! In your distraction, you have let the quartz fall from your hands, and you clutch at it, trying desperately to catch it. Your hand clasps on empty air, and the quartz shatters as it strikes the ground, leaving nothing but dust and a few tiny shards where it lands. As you stare blankly at the residue, you realize the voice has disappeared.

Opal

JEFFEE421:

{{TOCright}}
'''Opals''' are found in nearly every location. The rarer varieties of opal, however, are only found in certain locations and occur rather rarely in the treasure system.

An opal is hydrated silicon dioxide, usually containing between three and ten percent water, but sometimes containing as much as 20 percent. It is likely no surprise then that the stone is closely attuned to the element of water. Common (white) opal is truly amorphous, but precious opal has a structural element.<sup>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opal]</sup>

In moments they are swirling, and you feel your mind being tugged by an inexorable force, deeper and deeper into the stone. Faster and faster the vortex spins, dragging you with it as it tightens to a fine point, with no hint of what lies on the other side.''

''The dizzying vortex suddenly halts, and the sensation inexplicably ends, the effulgent motes twinkling innocently within the opal.}}

<pre{{log2}}>
>get ob quar
You remove a shard of oblivion quartz from in your iron strongbox.

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, your fascination growing into more than idle curiosity, quickly becoming an unnaturally driving need! In the next heartbeat, a cloud of nausea bursts from the stone's heart, quickly wrapping writhing tendrils of sickness around your face like a vaporous octopus! As your insides churn and heave, you claw desperately at your face and throat, trying to tear the terrifying thing away, but your hands pass right through it. As the tendrils tighten, you feel your breathing passages close and the air being sucked out of your chest.

You gasp for air, but you find nothing to ease your burning lungs. Your mouth opens repeatedly, desperately seeking something, anything, to stave off the inevitable onslaught of oblivion.

You start to breathe easier.

As you study the oblivion quartz's irregularities, you especially notice its chaotic patterns. They create a visual illusion, shifting and contracting as you scrutinize them.

A danged cloud of gnats suddenly surrounds your face. The little pests can certainly sneak up on a person! You notice the nasty things trying to forge a path up your nostrils.

You try to shoo the cloud away by flailing your arms, but to no avail. The diminutive varmints begin to dodge your rapidly blinking eyelids and gain the nice, wet surface of your eyes in a multi-gnatted strike force.

The more you flail and splutter and blink, the thicker the cloud of insects becomes! You hop around convulsively, but soon, finding that no relief, you switch to tactics of ducking and dodging with knees bent.

As if reading your mind, the little demons cling doggedly to your every move. Your ears roar with the loud whine of their wings like an amorous mosquito's serenade amplified a thousand-fold.

You burst into a frenetic dance, trying desperately to evade the cloud before they completely cover you in a black, pulsing second skin!

Suddenly, the bugs are gone! They simply disappear. As you try to catch your breath, you notice the air feels clean...and wonderful, minus the pollution of tiny, flying, villainous, infernal, obnoxious little pieces of...

You realize you are perhaps over-reacting just a bit to a cloud of gnats.

>stow quar
You find yourself unable to pull your attention away from the quartz in your hand.

As you gaze into the quartz, the glory of its anomalous heart entrances you. Within those depths lie mystery and power, evidenced by tiny glimpses of light floating within the firmament of the oblivion quartz's interior.

Slowly, you notice a delicious, beckoning sensation uncurl from inside the quartz, one that had been slyly hidden before now. You fix your thoughts on it before it can hide again, pinning its location so that you can draw near. As you extend your arms into the shadowy cloud surrounding your objective, it seeps into your mind and becomes you.

Darkness clouds your eyes. You abruptly know the hopelessness and inevitability of death and decay as if they are an extension of yourself. You see everything you have known throughout your life as two-dimensional images that curl around the edges and burn away into ash. Despair overcomes you with a suffocating finality.

Finally, the horrible feeling of despair begins to fray like a flimsy, decaying piece of shroud linen. It fades and disappears, leaving in its place a memory as black and horrible as death.

As you study the quartz, noting its striations and complexities, its strange aura draws you closer, curling fingers of fascination around your mind. Your surroundings fade, becoming unimportant. In fact, nothing has meaning other than the mysteries to be found waiting within the beckoning heart of the oblivion quartz.

Suddenly, you fall, plunging down into the quartz! Its brown luminosity feels like icy water against your skin, robbing you of your breath with an involuntary gasp, and quickly filling your nose and mouth. You try to resist the impulse to flail and thrash, concentrating on an attempt to figure out which way is up, however, the sense of drowning threatens to overcome your thoughts with panic. But there is no 'up'...or for that matter any direction at all. You are like a fly caught in amber and you realize with dread that there is no escape.

Abruptly, the suffocating sensation of being trapped in the quartz evaporates, leaving you shuddering and cold in its wake.

During a casual perusal of the oblivion quartz you hold, a pinpoint of light within its depths catches your eye. It is no more than a faint flicker, however, how could it be imprisoned inside the drab stone? It was not just a reflection either; at least it didn't seem to be. Was it?

As you examine the quartz more closely, you notice the horrifying fact that the thing has attached itself to your hand. Slowly, the rough, rocky material transcends its boundaries and spreads across your palm. As it expands, it gains momentum, and as your skin is transformed, pain erupts in an excruciating blossom.

You try to drop the cursed thing, but quickly discover the fact that once transmuted, the affected appendage is frozen and unresponsive -- useless -- just like stone.

A band of searing pain crosses your chest, making the attempt to catch your breath an agony. You feel a terrifying prickle as the invasive scourge reaches your neck and works its way upward. Your throat closes and breathing is no longer within your ability.

Your eyesight fades as you feel the darkness overtake you.

[Forced to stance offensive.]

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, finding its complex striations unusually arresting. Although it is a somewhat drab, dun color, you somehow know there are fascinating anomalies waiting to be found there, if you just concentrate...all...your...energy...

Something pulses deep within the quartz. It pulses a second time, and again, as you realize you are staring at your own heart beating there inside the stone. How could you have not realized this before now?! This is a dangerous situation. Your horror grows as your thoughts follow the undeniable logic along its course.

Why, anyone could steal this quartz from you. They're probably already making plans to do so. And once they have it...well, they'll have complete control. You'll be a mere puppet, shackled to the tenuous prospects of the quartz's vulnerability. A slave at the hands of anyone who happens to hold the quartz, your life's receptacle.

Fear and panic threaten to completely overcome your senses as you ponder the hopeless future, and watch the heart within the stone mete out its feeble rhythm.

Abruptly, you exhale in an explosive burst, realizing your lungs are screaming for air! A haze lifts from your eyes. When you search the heart of the quartz again, you see nothing but a simple stone, and a rather uninspiring one at that. As the frightening thoughts dissipate, you are left with a confusing memory that defies explanation.

As you study the quartz, noting its striations and complexities, its strange aura draws you closer, curling fingers of fascination around your mind. Your surroundings fade, becoming unimportant. In fact, nothing has meaning other than the mysteries to be found waiting within the beckoning heart of the oblivion quartz.

Suddenly, you fall, plunging down into the quartz! Its brown luminosity feels like icy water against your skin, robbing you of your breath with an involuntary gasp, and quickly filling your nose and mouth. You try to resist the impulse to flail and thrash, concentrating on an attempt to figure out which way is up, however, the sense of drowning threatens to overcome your thoughts with panic. But there is no 'up'...or for that matter any direction at all. You are like a fly caught in amber and you realize with dread that there is no escape.

Abruptly, the suffocating sensation of being trapped in the quartz evaporates, leaving you shuddering and cold in its wake.

You gaze into the depths of the oblivion quartz, noting the strange way its interior cosmos takes on an illusion of depth and dimension. With a start, you hear a whisper close to your ear address you, drawing out your name with its sibilant tone, "Chivalrous..."

You glance around, peering over both shoulders, surprised by the voice's unexpected and near presence, but no one is close enough to have been its author. As you return your gaze to the quartz, the voice hails you again, "Chivalrous..." This time it continues, "They will pay!"

Uncertainty rushes through you as you hear the whispered entreaties become more and more deranged. "They don't understand. They are all planning...always planning, scheming. It will do them no good!"

The whisper gets louder as it grows more menacing, and soon seems to be coming from all around you. "We are not fooled, oh noooo. Never fooled, although they think we are. They won't laugh forever though. They will scream then. We will show them..." The whispers send chills skittering up your spine, while at the same time, the hollow words slowly begin to make sense.

You gasp suddenly! In your distraction, you have let the quartz fall from your hands, and you clutch at it, trying desperately to catch it. Your hand clasps on empty air, and the quartz shatters as it strikes the ground, leaving nothing but dust and a few tiny shards where it lands. As you stare blankly at the residue, you realize the voice has disappeared.
