Portrait locket

Portrait Locket stub.

Starting with what was recently at The Ivory Mask and unlocked/attuned by Villicent.

Variable Expression

Unopened locket analyze:

The creator has also provided the following information:
This is the "Variable Expression" version of a portrait locket. The following may be altered by a willing merchant: the base (15/15/15); a long description; the picture that is visible inside of the locket when it is open; the outside surface (this will always be preceded by the words, "The outside of the locket is"); and the read. None of these aspects may contradict one another.

To create a portrait of yourself in the locket, simply OPEN it while it is in your right hand. Once the portrait is made, you cannot alter the picture without the help of a willing merchant. Bear in mind that when the initial portrait is made of someone using this locket, it will show him or her as a haughty person. Some merchants may be willing to change the initial portrait "personality" (prior to the portrait being taken) for you (options are: curmudgeon, giggly, evil, haughty, joyful/adventurous, flirt, moody, confident, triumphant, happy drunk).

Currently you are able to COVER, OPEN, and CLOSE the locket. This locket may be unlocked further by a very small handful of merchants.

A small handful of merchants may be able and willing to attune this locket to a beloved.

You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the dark steel locket for you or deepen its pockets.

Attuned & Unlocked Locket Analyze:

You analyze your dark steel locket and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:
This is the "Variable Expression" version of a portrait locket.  The following may be altered by a willing merchant:  the base (15/15/15); a long description; the picture that is visible inside of the locket when it is open; the outside surface (this will always be preceded by the words, "The outside of the locket is"); and the read (though a whisper from your beloved's special item will overwrite whatever a merchant inscribes here).  None of these aspects may contradict one another.  Some merchants may be willing to change the locket's "personality" (options are: curmudgeon, giggly, evil, haughty, joyful/adventurous, flirt, moody, confident, triumphant, happy drunk, fear).

Currently you are able to GAZE, WHISPER, KISS, RUB, COVER, OPEN, and CLOSE the locket.  Some of the interactions of RUB, GAZE, and WHISPER are based on the "personality" of the locket, which is currently set to a flirt.

This locket is currently attuned to you as the owner, and when you COVER it, you will be able to think of your beloved, Amaurn.  If your beloved also has a similarly attuned item, then he or she will know when you are doing this!  When you are both wearing your special items [both must be unlocked - you will know if both lockets get this message when analyzing], KISS indicates that you are thinking of one another, and WHISPER will allow you to magically inscribe a message on your beloved's special item.  (For help with WHISPER: your new whispered inscription will overwrite any current inscription or reading material on your beloved's special item; you will not be able to inscribe a new message for 24 hours; you are limited to 150 characters; and the syntax is WHISPER [MY] LOCKET (MESSAGE).)  Only a handful of merchants are able to change the attunement on this item.

You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the dark steel locket for you or deepen its pockets.

Personalities

Curmudgeon

portait	Stuck into the red gold locket, you see an incredibly detailed portrait of a half elf. Under her hip-length, raven black hair, her brow has darkened and, she is frowning. Through velvet black eyes, she stares out at you moodily. Clearly, she doesn't like anything about her day, least of all having her portrait painted. As if taking a cue from her, the sky behind her is painted a foreboding grey color, streaked with rain-filled, roiling clouds.

Giggly

portait	Tucked into the heart-shaped locket, you see an intricately detailed portrait of a half elf. Her velvet black eyes have a twinkle in them, and she is smiling happily at you. Her hip-length, raven black hair picks up highlights from a cheerily shining sun in a background of blue skies and green trees. It looks like such a perfect setting for a picnic that you can almost hear sounds of giggling and singing.

Haughty

portait	Mounted in the brushed silver locket, you see a masterfully-painted portrait of a half elf. She stands in an affected pose, every fold of her clothing in place. Hip-length, raven black hair frames velvet black eyes whose expression clearly states that she is the Mistress of anything or anyone that has the good fortune to fall under her influence. One eyebrow is raised in a skeptical look, and her lips are curled into a condescending smirk.

Flirt

portait	Set into the dark steel locket is a finely detailed seaside portrait of a half elf with hip-length, raven black hair. Shaded by a brightly colored umbrella, she lounges on a white, sandy beach, her toes idly swirling the sand. Her velvet black eyes peer up coyly, her eyelashes fluttering, as her lips curl into a flirtatious smile that is as dazzling as the aquarmarine [sic] oceanscape surrounding her. Tiny letters are inscribed along the bottom, inner edge of the locket.
rub	Entertaining coquettish thoughts, you idly swirl your finger over the outer surface of your locket.
gaze	With your hand on your locket, you gaze around and wink flirtatiously.
whisper	Twirling your locket around, you quietly whisper poetry waxing romantic.
