Ghezyte chelioboros items were first introduced as the quest reward at Ebon Gate 2017, the first year at Caligos Isle. It is a self-charging item that has different abilities based on whether one has completed the yearly quest and/or converted to the deity Ghezresh. Each year allows for the item to upgrade as long as the appropriate amount of favor is earned. Each year you could earn up to a maximum 1,000 favor, culminating in 5,000 total favor in quest year 2021. Favor is garnered by doing the various Caligos Isle yearly quest(s). The items required for the quests have varied by year, but for the final year 2021, the item is a ghezyte-veined sea glass bauble.
Baubles can be obtained via digging, mini-games and Trick or Treat. The favor awarded per turn-in varies depending on whether you obtained the bauble directly from a game, or got it from another player. Baubles found in Trick or Treat are rumored to be worth more favor than items found in the regular games (digging and the mini-games in the caverns). Players who did not participate in the quest prior to the current year can "catch up" by turning in additional baubles via the quests.
There is a cost of 250,000 silver to purchase the bracelet from the chest when available on Caligos Isle. The chest is in room #65 on the map or Lich room #26556. Once purchased, the bracelet is attuned to the character that picked it up, and each character may purchase only one bracelet. Note: The verbs for each year are unlocked automatically each year, and are not tied to favor gain.
The item can be rotated between four various worn locations via the PROD verb. Those four locations include wrist(bracelet), finger(ring), neck(choker), and ankle(anklet).
The SHOW is:
Shards of ultrafine ghezyte are wedded together with a mercurial compound that resembles silver to form an abhorrent and twisted shape of an eel devouring its own tail. Thin skeins of inky black, indigo-hued ghezyte form the dorsal and underbelly fins, while silver inlay around the black coral eyes gives the anguilline form an insidious cast. Though largely smooth, something about the piece seems sinister and disturbing.

Third

| GAZE
|
As you gaze upon your chelioboros bracelet, the twisting and twining of the eel's body hypnotic, you feel yourself falling into a bit of a trance as its indigo eyes draw you in. You begin to feel as though you are drowning, which pulls you awake, gasping for air.

Year 4 - 2020
| Verb
|
First
|
Third
|
| HISS
|
The familiar weight of the bracelet on your wrist suddenly becomes burdensome, heavier than is sensible, and it tightens on your wrist in an unflinching grip that makes your breath hiss from between your teeth. Its hold is just shy of painful, and you gaze into the glittering eyes of the eel and feel a rising sense of dread in the pit of your stomach.
|
Khaell's eyes flash down to the bracelet on his wrist momentarily, the corners of his mouth growing tight. As he hisses a breath between his teeth, you notice the lithe body of the bracelet coiling tighter, and Khaell shakes his hand as if trying to cast something off. A breath or two later, the body of the eel goes lax, and Khaell blinks rapidly and sighs.
|
| MOCK
|
You turn a critical eye down to your chelioboros bracelet, scraping your thumbnail against the engravings on its surface as you marvel at how easily such power was taken from a self-proclaimed deity. The thought is barely completed before you feel a blinding pain in your wrist, and you look down to see that the eel has awoken, bitten into your skin, and is slowly crawling beneath. You scrabble, wildly trying to stop the anguillid creature, but it burrows deep and slithers up your arm, over the curve of your shoulder, and along your neck. A scream is perched just on the tip of your tongue, ready to rip free at any moment, and you hear a dark, roiling whisper against your ear, "You have only what I have given and to a purpose that is only for me to know. Do not suppose you are anything other than a pawn." Chest tight and arm pulsing with pain, you glance down only to find your chelioboros bracelet on your wrist as usual, placid and unmoving, and you're left to wonder if.
|
Khaell thumbs his chelioboros bracelet and goes perfectly still and unbreathing for several long moments. Khaell looks decidedly blue around the gills before he takes a deep, shuddering breath and blinks several times in rapid succession.

First
|
Third
|
| SCREAM
|
An uneasy calm washes over you, and you find your thoughts drifting like an abandoned vessel at sea. Rising from the tips of your toes to the crown of your head, the wave of silence is swiftly replaced by a strangling congestion in the back of your throat. You cough a few times in an attempt to clear the blockage, which lingers more than a few moments.
|
Person sways slightly and appears as if he might faint, but he quickly regains his balance and coughs forcefully a few times.
|
| TURN
|
Grabbing the front of your chelioboros choker, you turn it slowly clockwise. With each rotation, the choker becomes more and more constricting, and you hear a crunching sound, much like teeth scraping metal. Sharp and burning pain develops in your neck as something seems to be lodged into your skin, preventing it from moving! After a number of attempts, the piece loosens its grip, and the pain subsides.
|
Grabbing the front of his chelioboros choker, Person turns it slowly clockwise. With each rotation, the choker appears to devour more of its tail as the choker constricts around his neck, gradually burying itself into his flesh, but after a second glance, everything appears normal.
