A chrismarium is a clerical tool released at Ebon Gate 2022 in the store Derelict Abbey and designed by GM Tivvy. Chrisms created with Holy Receptacle (325) can be deposited into them to store charges of the chrism effect, which reduces Death's Sting for dead characters that are resurrected or allows living characters to meditate. This aids in inventory management and changes the messaging when applying the chrism effect to one of five styles, Standard, Rude, Reverent, Riant, and Rigid. Messaging style can be selected using an amaranthine certificate from the same store. Customized chrismarium messaging is available as a rare delayed service.

Analyze

You take a closer look at a brushed faenor chrismarium inlaid with ivory alyssum.
You analyze the faenor chrismarium and sense that the creator has provided the following information:
This is a chrismarium, a holy relic that stores the oil and balsam from inside a chrism gem, allowing you to stockpile multiple charges inside for later application to a corpse.  While anyone may add chrism oil to it, it may only be used by clerics to apply the chrism effect.

It may be altered but must remain made of metal, and the noun must remain chrismarium.

This chrismarium is at tier 1 out of 5.  A skilled merchant might be able to unlock it further.
It will hold a maximum of 20 charges.
It is currently using the "Standard" messaging style.

You can PUSH the chrismarium with a chrism in your other hand to store it within.  This destroys the chrism and adds one charge to the chrismarium.  The charges within the chrismarium are as effective as the average of all chrism gems absorbed in this fashion.

You can PROD the chrismarium to stop being warned about when chrism's quality would reduce the average of the chrismarium's contents.
These warnings only apply to the 'fullness' of chrisms and none of their other qualities.

You can POUR the chrismarium on a player to grant them its effects, provided you are skilled in using chrisms.  You can also POUR it on the ground, which wastes a charge but may be useful if you want to replace the contents with higher-quality chrisms.

Unlocked verbs: PUSH, POUR, LOOK, MEASURE, RUB, PROD
You get no sense of whether or not the chrismarium may be further lightened.
