'''Black ora jewelry''' are rare, cursed items crafted from black ora that cannot be removed once worn. An update was issues in 2016 which allowed for two different versions, uncommon and rare. Original black ora pieces were automatically grandfathered into the '''rare''' category that continues to offer both a mana dump and a spirit drain and have been given four additional verbs to play with. '''Uncommon''' jewelry continue to offer the prior verb set, but do not have the mana dump or spirit drain the rare pieces have.

==Official Update Post==

<pre{{log2}}>
<pre{{log2}}>
The black ora medallion around your neck is momentarily engulfed in a shroud of darkness!
A few updates are now live with the special kind of black ora jewelry (the kind you can't remove once worn). There are two versions now, uncommon and rare. Everyone who has one currently has a rare version. The rare version has 4 new verbs, one being a little more special and can only be used once a week (if you can figure it out). The uncommon version doesn't have the mana dump or spirit drain abilities. The mana dump and spirit drain are now a little more random, and the spirit drain will no longer drain a spirit if you were just resurrected with only one spirit (but it will drain your last spirit if you find yourself with one spirit via other means).
</pre>
===Look===
<pre{{log2}}>
Ambients on:
''The shadows surrounding the black ora medallion contort into writhing tendrils.''


Ambients off:
All versions have a mood/idle message now that can occur every 30 to 60 minutes. You can PROD the the jewelry item to toggle that on and off and you can see the status via LOOK. The submenu via StormFront's point and click now has a "black ora" submenu (the special verb is excluded from this menu). You can also have special merchants work on them (to alter them), but it will remain a very rare service. Unlocking services won't be a service that will be offered, so choose wisely before wearing one. There will also be some new worn locations released in the future (and possibly some armor accessories). They still can't be removed in any way once worn. But all pieces are now considered fluff and not functional, because...
''The shadows surrounding the black ora medallion appear motionless.''

RP choices > Mechanic choices

To update the worn location, just use one of the verb traps that gives special messaging and it will automagically correct itself.

Enjoy!

Black ora jewelry are rare, cursed items crafted from black ora that, unlike regularly cursed items, cannot be removed by any means once worn. An update was issued in 2013 which allowed for two different versions, uncommon and rare. Original black ora pieces were automatically grandfathered into the rare category that continues to offer both a mana dump and a spirit drain and have been given four additional verbs to play with. Uncommon jewelry continue to offer the prior verb set, but do not have the mana dump or spirit drain the rare pieces have.

CLENCH As you grip your black ora medallion, there are pulses under your hand as dark wisps rise, coiling sinuously in the air. As XXX grips her black ora medallion, dark wisps rise, coiling sinuously in the air.
DUST As you clean and polish your black ora medallion, small puffs of a miasmal haze spring up from the dark metal. As XXX polishes her black ora medallion, small puffs of a miasmal haze spring up from the dark metal.
