Analyze

This is a Best Foot Forward trinket.

This copper ribbon can be set to highlight certain aspects of your appearance or worn gear, causing it to be the 'first' thing that others notice about you when they LOOK at you.

You will need to TURN or POINT the ribbon to select something to emphasize.

This copper ribbon has a maximum of 2 charges, of which 1 are remaining.  This copper ribbon will replenish its charges each day at midnight.

The appearance of this item can be freely altered by any merchant wishing to do so, but none of the aspects of what others see may be changed by a merchant, as those are tied directly to your character's appearance or gear.

Instructions:
* POINT your copper ribbon at a piece of worn inventory in order to store that item's description for use by the copper ribbon.
* TURN your copper ribbon to cycle through the available options for what to emphasize in your appearance.
* PROD your copper ribbon to feature the aspect more or less prominently (monsterbold off or on).
* STARE your copper ribbon to toggle between an exclamation point and a period.
* PREEN your copper ribbon with an item chosen to choose to display a valid show description.
* PUSH your copper ribbon to enable others to see it when they look at you for one hour.
