Ear Notching Gadget

Ear Notching Gadgets can be used to permanently modify the ears of a deer mount. They are sold at Notcher Style at Rumor Woods. OTS/Tier 1 The base function of an Ear Notching Gadget allows the style of notch to be applied to the left or right ear of the deer mount. Analyze You analyze the ebony gadget and sense that the creator has provided the following information: This ebony gadget will issue an identifying marking on your cervidae's ear. (A mount can only have one of these markings, but you can overwrite existing ones.) Alterations are okay as long as the item remains an obvious tool AND consideration is made regarding the hard coded look. At Tier 1, the tool defaults to "notch" (style) and "shaped" (type). At Tier 2, you can change the "type". At Tier 3 you can change the "style". All tiers are able to toggle between placement of right/left ear. Use of this tool is a permanent change. (Example: ...he has an elongated face and small ears [with a star-shaped notch at the tip of his right ear].) Current settings will create: a music note-carved design USAGE: Point: Use gadget on mount's ear Pull: Change to right/left ear Push: Change default "type" of "-shaped" [Note: Only available at Tier 2.] Turn: Change default "style" of "notch" [Note: Only available at Tier 3.] You get no sense of whether or not the gadget may be further lightened. Usage Verb First Third POINT With an assertive tone, you command your black reindeer to lower his head, and he obediently complies without incident. Able to easily reach him, you place a fur-handled maple gadget near the tip of the reindeer's left ear, and the gadget automatically extends far enough to clamp onto the ear apex and make some lightning-fast incisions. When you realize what has happened, the procedure is complete and he now has a heart-shaped mark at the tip of his left ear. With an assertive tone, Vanah commands her black reindeer to lower his head, and he obediently complies without incident. Reaching over, she places a fur-handled maple gadget near the tip of the reindeer's left ear, and the gadget automatically extends far enough to clamp onto the ear apex, and makes some lightning-fast incisions. PULL Using both hands, you pull firmly on each end of your fur-handled gadget, and the sharp blade flips its position, now angled to the 'LEFT.'

Usage Verb First Third TURN Using your thumb and forefinger, you turn the gear-shaped dial located at one end of your fur-handled gadget until it clicks into the next slot.

Additional Information Hard-Coded Description Ear Notching Gadgets have a hard-coded look description: At one end of the ebony gadget is a small button situated within a gear-like dial, and a sharp utensil at the opposite end is shaped like a music note and flipped to the right. There is a spring closure in the middle that allows one to extend the tool, but the spring causes it to recoil to its original size. See Also Deer mount
