a derelict tavern built into the rock face, [Map Room #], Lich# 26527, go tavern

Wrong Turn Tavern

[Wrong Turn Tavern - 26733]
Built into the rock face, the derelict tavern is relatively bare, with only a handful of slipshod tables and chairs tucked under funnel-shaped glass lamps hanging from the craggy ceiling. Cluttered on one side with six tall stools, a rough-edged oak bar is covered in a milky film, and the other side is entirely bereft of clean glassware and -- perhaps the reason for the general lack of patrons -- liquor. Middling circular holes that serve as windows are cut into the rock and offer a view of the seascape to the east.

Hideaway Cavern

[Hideaway Cavern - 26743]
Rocky walls consisting of dark shale in some areas and limestone in others spread all around in this cozy space. A diminutive worktable, its surface covered in dust and ashes, holds a handful of blades sans hilts, some stained with sanguine and all wrought with cracks through their metal makeup. Clearly ready for display and sale, a separate collection of blades, each finely crafted into a dagger and fully intact, dangles from a braided black rope that splays across the length of the area. You also see a stone trapdoor.

    We ask that you refrain from taking anything from the worktable.  Unless you want us to run out of merchandise.
            We suggest that you do not think about how the dead things on the bench are used in the making of said merchandise.
                       Warm Regards, Goblyns and Ghules Enterprises

On the braided black rope you see: a wooden notice, an oddly shaped sheath of paired undertaker bat wings, a discolored siren hair-seamed wrist sheath, a brackish-hued sheath clasped with night golem fingers, a pallid grey sharkskin sheath rotted through in patches, a mica-swirled faenor push dagger, a finely honed glaes sgian achlais, a sickly green ora misericord with vathor relief imagery, a slender invar pavade with a half-melted skull pommel, a spindly black garnet-veined kaiken and a pitch black dagger glazed in dark sanguine tones.

a wooden notice

The daggers are for rituals, and though they may involve prayer, they are not specifically tied to the Arkati.

The pitch black dagger and the garnet-veined kaiken will not be very useful in combat.  The other dagger-based blades are useful in combat and employ an enchant that is the natural one of their base material.

The sheaths are made for several blade types and are known as Rocket Sheaths.  They are worn as follows:
   Undertaker Bat - belt
   Siren - wrist
   Night Golem - arm
   Shark - shoulder

Hideaway Cavern, Passage

[Hideaway Cavern, Passage - 26744]
Damp and somewhat humid, with a small vent occasionally spurting out grey mist, the area is narrow. More like a passageway than a proper room, it stretches a goodly length, with a slope leading steeply downward at the far end. Black ropes are suspended against both of the longer cavern walls, one hung with varied daggers, the other supporting assorted small sheaths. Fending off complete darkness, funnel-shaped glass lanterns droop down from above at unevenly spaced intervals.
Obvious exits: west

On the ropes you see: a wooden notice, a patchworked vruul skin sheath, a blood red orc ear-adorned sheath, a glass shard-embedded sheath, a rough-edged gornar gimlet knife, a deeply pitted vultite hook dagger, a gaping maw-hilted cinquedea with a zorchar blade, a crescent dagger of vaalorn inset with splintered bones, a skeletal hand-hilted glass ritual dagger and a sharp silver ritual dagger couched in a talon-shaped hilt.

a wooden notice

The daggers are best used by those who are religious.  If you are not religious, the spirits that roam this world are where you will focus your thoughts.

The silver ritual dagger and the glass ritual dagger will not be very useful in combat.  The other dagger-based blades are useful in combat and employ an enchant that is the natural one of their base material.

The sheaths are specially made for small blades and are worn as follows:
   Vruul Skin - back
   Orc Ears - upper arm
   Glass Shards - thigh

Hideaway Cavern, Skyfall

[Hideaway Cavern, Skyfall - 26745]
Affording a spectacular view of the sea hugging some of the island's craggy shoreline, the cavern wall falls away on one side of an upward slope, completely open to the elements and a precipitous drop-off. The opposite wall expands outward, allowing ample room for the wares draped from multiple hooks and placed atop a long driftwood table. Shoved against the walls are substantial piles of dead kelp, which exude the stench of rotting sea life. Almost indiscernible in a shadowed niche, a warped door bears deep gashes.
Obvious exits: none

warped door

                        BE AWARE!! !
  TEMPERATURE VARIANCE THROUGH THIS DOOR!!!
              IF YOU CATCH COLD, THAT IS YOUR OWN FAULT -- YOU WERE WARNED!!!
               Warm Regards, Goblyns and Ghules Enterprises

On the long driftwood table you see: a wooden notice, a blue-black ichor-filled flacon, a red-speckled milky venom-filled vial, a bright green viscous potion, a silver-hazed black pitch-filled bottle, a flask of greenish yellow bile, a vial of dark red blood, a tear-streaked doll's head candle, an eyeball-laden molded oculoth taper and a shiny black lemon-shaped taper.

a wooden notice

The candles are known as Inner Eye Candles.

All of the liquids can be poured on the daggers sold in this enterprise.

The pitch-filled bottle, the bright green viscous potion, the venom-filled vial, and the ichor-filled flacon can be poured on the floor to make a stain.  The dark red blood and the greenish yellow bile can be consumed.

hooks Small scratch marks in the stone next to the hooks roughly spell out, "GHULE."

On the hooks you see: a black velvet and silk hat, a crystal-inset platinum ring and a shadowy black silk cloak.

a black velvet and silk hat	Weight: <1 pound Pocketed: Very small (<2-4) a couple of items of very small size	head-worn functional	Ghule Hat analyze Analyze: You analyze the velvet and silk hat and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item type should not change." The creator has also provided the following information: Currently you are able to use TAP, TILT, BOW, and KICK. If you happen to have special fangs or a ring of a similar build, you'll find that things may look a bit fancier when you use the hat. Some merchants may be able to unlock this hat to a higher tier for you. You get a strong sense that the aesthetics of hat can be altered by any merchant. It must remain a hat or hat-like item -- something that can be worn on the head but still reasonably store small items and be "tipped." (as in tipping your hat to someone). You can tell that the hat is as light as it can get, but you might be able to have a talented merchant deepen its pockets for you.	75,000
a crystal-inset platinum ring	Weight: <1 pound		Ghule Ring analyze Analyze: You analyze the platinum ring and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item type should not change." The creator has also provided the following information: This is a Ghule ring (modern-style). You get the sense that this ring can be altered, though there are some restrictions. Any merchant can change its base and long description, but it must remain a ring of some kind. The only elements of its show description that can be altered are the material of the ring and the COLOR of 'glow' that the gem on it is giving off. If altering the glow color: it must be a COLOR. Stick to the actual hue/shade (not other things that it could be doing, like glowing, scintillating, or pulsing, for example), and specifically avoid "deep" in the color and "-hued" to prevent double wording in some messaging (-colored, etc. is fine). Avoid going overboard on modifiers. Your ring is currently set to the following color: fiery red. Currently you are able to STARE/PEER/GAZE at the ring. This ring may be unlocked further (to allow for more color options) within special, rare circumstances. You get no sense of whether or not the ring may be further lightened.	125,000
a shadowy black silk cloak	Weight: 7 pounds Pocketed: Significant (100-119)	cloak-worn functional	Ghule Cloak analyze Analyze: You analyze the black silk cloak and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions. The creator has also provided the following information: You get a strong sense that this cloak can be altered by any merchant. However it is altered, it must logically make sense as something that can "billow" out easily (so avoid requesting tight-fitting or super short garments if possible). Currently you are able to use OPEN, CLOSE, WAVE, BOW, WEAR, and REMOVE with the cloak. If you happen to have special fangs of a similar build, you'll find that things may look a bit fancier when you use the cloak. This cloak can be unlocked to a second tier by any willing Ebon Gate Festival merchant and by a handful of merchants outside of that festival. You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the black silk cloak for you or deepen its pockets.	100,000

Really, this just means that it has verb traps geared toward performing rituals. The item is dual-tiered: there are verb tiers, and then there are additional special ability add-ons. Nearly all verb traps allow for targets (use VERB my knife WITH/AT (target)), and there are other factors that will introduce some variety. Currently there are 2 verb tiers and 4 special ability add-ons (permanent scarring, commune, intercession, and sacrificing).

POINT - traces a pattern over the skin. WAVE - to draw patterns that "hang" in the air. The daggers come in 3 different flavors: default, Arkati, and custom. This knife is set up as default, and it cannot be toggled to the other flavors. The ability to allow toggling will be offered on occasion.

a wooden notice

In the Common language, it reads:
The daggers are for rituals, and though they may involve prayer, they are not specifically tied to the Arkati.
The blood red ruby misericord and the wavy-bladed ritual dagger will not be very useful in combat.  The other dagger-based blades are useful in combat and employ an enchant as close to vultite's as is possible for their natural base material.
The sheaths are made for several blade types and are known as Rocket Sheaths.  They are worn as follows:
Suede (sanguine) - belt
Leather (tawny) - wrist
Coal Black - arm
Orc hide - shoulder

a forked ritual dagger with twin silver and copper blades	Weight: 2 pounds		analyze, show description Analyze: --------- RITUAL DAGGER ITEM - ANALYZE INFO --------- This is a Ritual Dagger item. Really, this just means that it has verb traps geared toward performing rituals. The item is dual-tiered: there are verb tiers, and then there are additional special ability add-ons. Nearly all verb traps allow for targets (use VERB my dagger WITH/AT (target)), and there are other factors that will introduce some variety. Currently there are 2 verb tiers and 4 special ability add-ons (permanent scarring, commune, intercession, and sacrificing). Generally, unlocking from Tier 1 to 2 will be offered on occasion as a specialized service; however, the add-ons will be extremely rare and should be considered a pie-in-the-sky type of service. The Tier 1 verbs on this dagger are: POUR - allows you to coat the dagger in certain specific substances from the food system and some of the old "ritual potion" items; or clean it. [Cleaning nouns = water, bourbon, whiskey, liquor.] [Coating nouns = blood, oil, grease, ether, liquid, venom, essence, bile, effluvium, ichor.] PULL - to draw ritual circles. POINT - traces a pattern over the skin. WAVE - to draw patterns that "hang" in the air. The daggers come in 3 different flavors: default, Arkati, and custom. This dagger is set up as Arkati, and it cannot be toggled to the other flavors. The ability to allow toggling will be offered on occasion. Aesthetic alterations are perfectly acceptable -- the dagger must remain a dagger-appropriate item. You are able to have both a long and a show. It is highly recommended that you keep any long descriptions brief. ----------------------------------------------------- Show: If you were to POINT the dagger at someone, you would trace, without leaving a mark, "a wavy line" across (target's) jawbone.	100000

Affording a spectacular view of the mist-filled darkness outside, the cavern wall falls away on one side of an upward slope, completely open to the elements and a precipitous drop-off. The opposite wall expands outward, allowing ample room for the wares draped from multiple hooks and placed atop a long driftwood table. Shoved against the walls are substantial piles of dead kelp, which exude the stench of rotting sea life. Almost indiscernible in a shadowed niche, a warped door bears deep gashes.

a silver-streaked blood potion	Weight: <1 pound		analyze Analyze: This blood potion is intended to be a ritualistic potion of some sort. You can try to POUR, TURN, TILT, DRINK, and MEASURE it. Some skilled merchants can alter this potion. It can have a long or a show desription, though generally the visible description should match up in some way with its contents. Ideally, the noun is a container (since you are pouring out of it), though in some cases something more generic like "potion" will be acceptable. You should also be explicit with the merchant about what sort of liquid is contained within it. The liquid will always need to make sense within this phrasing: "a circular stain of <liquid descriptor> <liquid noun>" -- and it must be appropriate for pouring out and leaving a visible stain on the ground, such as "blood", "venom," and things of that nature. Note that the <liquid noun> must fit within 15 characters. The <liquid descriptor> can be longer but most merchants willl not allow counts to go too far beyond 15.

WTT Entry

[Wrong Turn Tavern]	RNUM: 26733
Built into the rock face, the derelict tavern is relatively bare, with only a handful of slipshod tables and chairs tucked under funnel-shaped glass lamps hanging from the craggy ceiling. Cluttered on one side with six tall stools, a rough-edged oak bar is covered in a milky film, and the other side is entirely bereft of clean glassware and -- perhaps the reason for the general lack of patrons -- liquor. Middling circular holes that serve as windows are cut into the rock and offer a view of the seascape to the east.

Rocky walls consisting of dark shale in some areas and limestone in others spread all around in this cozy space. A diminutive worktable, its surface covered in dust and ashes, holds a handful of blades sans hilts, some stained with sanguine and all wrought with cracks through their metal makeup. Clearly ready for display and sale, a separate collection of blades, each finely crafted into a dagger and fully intact, dangles from a braided black rope that splays across the length of the area.

The daggers are for rituals, and though they may involve prayer, they are not specifically tied to the Arkati.

The gold kaiken and the emerald ritual dagger will not be very useful in combat.  The other dagger-based blades are useful in combat and employ an enchant as close to vultite's as is possible for their natural base material.

The sheaths are made for several blade types and are known as Rocket Sheaths.  They are worn as follows:
   Honeyed leather - belt
   Suede - wrist
   Narrow (kidskin) - arm
   Alabaster - shoulder
