A '''chrismarium''' is a clerical tool released at [[Ebon_Gate_Festival|Ebon Gate 2022]] in the store [[EHShop:Derelict_Abbey|Derelict Abbey]] and designed by [[GameMaster|GMs]] [[User:GS4-YUSRI|Yusri]] and [[User:GS4-TIVVY|Tivvy]]. [[Holy_Receptacle_(325)#Tier_4:_Chrism|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]].


Any character can store chrisms in a chrismarium and use its fluff verbs, but {{boldmono|[[POUR]]}}ing them is subject to the same restrictions as using chrism gems -- namely, it can only be used by clerics of at least level 18 with knowledge of the [[Raise Dead (318)]] spell once created. [[F2P]] characters must have an active Resurrection Pass to use them successfully on corpses.

The chrismarium 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.

==Additional Information==

===Chrism Quality===
Chrismariums maintain a running average of chrisms they have stored -- both in terms of experience retention (determined by [[Spiritual Lore, Blessings]]) and recuperation time (determined by the value of the gem prior to being converted to a chrism.) If you add a 90% full chrism worth 6000 silver and a 100% full chrism worth 8000 silver to an empty chrismarium, you will end up with two charges both equivalent to using a 95% full chrism valued at 7000 silver.

You will be prompted for confirmation if storing a chrism would reduce experience retention below the current average unless you have disabled this prompt using the {{boldmono|PROD}} verb. There is no confirmation if the average value would decrease.

If you {{boldmono|MEASURE}} a chrismarium, you will receive information about the current chrism quality. Quality information related to the average value (recuperation time) is the same as chrisms. Experience retention messaging matches chrisms as follows:

{| class="wikitable alternating"
!scope="col"|Chrism
!scope="col"|Chrismarium
|-
|role="rowheader" | half full
| diluted to half strength
|-
|role="rowheader" | more than half full
| diluted to more than half strength
|-
|role="rowheader" | three quarters full
| somewhat diluted
|-
|role="rowheader" | almost full
| slightly diluted
|-
|role="rowheader" | full
| pure and undiluted
|}

You can {{boldmono|POUR}} a chrismarium on the ground to discard a charge of it. This can be useful if you have diluted the contents of it and want to get it back to a pristine state to add full chrisms to it.

See [[chrism]]s for more details on these attributes.

A chrismarium is a clerical tool released at Ebon Gate 2022 in the store Derelict Abbey and designed by GMs Yusri and 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.

Any character can store chrisms in a chrismarium and use its fluff verbs, but POURing them is subject to the same restrictions as using chrism gems -- namely, it can only be used by clerics of at least level 18 with knowledge of the Raise Dead (318) spell once created. F2P characters must have an active Resurrection Pass to use them successfully on corpses.

The chrismarium 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.

Additional Information

Chrism Quality

Chrismariums maintain a running average of chrisms they have stored -- both in terms of experience retention (determined by Spiritual Lore, Blessings) and recuperation time (determined by the value of the gem prior to being converted to a chrism.) If you add a 90% full chrism worth 6000 silver and a 100% full chrism worth 8000 silver to an empty chrismarium, you will end up with two charges both equivalent to using a 95% full chrism valued at 7000 silver.

You will be prompted for confirmation if storing a chrism would reduce experience retention below the current average unless you have disabled this prompt using the PROD verb. There is no confirmation if the average value would decrease.

If you MEASURE a chrismarium, you will receive information about the current chrism quality. Quality information related to the average value (recuperation time) is the same as chrisms. Experience retention messaging matches chrisms as follows:

Chrism Chrismarium
half full diluted to half strength
more than half full diluted to more than half strength
three quarters full somewhat diluted
almost full slightly diluted
full pure and undiluted

You can POUR a chrismarium on the ground to discard a charge of it. This can be useful if you have diluted the contents of it and want to get it back to a pristine state to add full chrisms to it.

See chrisms for more details on these attributes.
