Item Information
The uhl-claw jewelry item can store up to 50 individual names in it. It is used as a passive discouragement from unwanted suitors. >analyze my uhl-ring You analyze your silver uhl-ring and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

A sterling silver uhl-ring sporting onyx and ruby inlay is an Uhl-Claw device designed by the kindred of the T'Kirem Bear Clan. Its primary purpose is to discourage unwanted attention from those who may have taken a fancy to the wearer. It is meant to be a subtle device. To read more about the lore, visit: https://gswiki.play.net/Uhl-claw.

To use the uhl-ring, you must WEAR it and POINT it at the person you do not wish to make advances on you. Do not worry, this gesture is so subtle that they don't see it has been done until they look upon you. Once they do look at you they will see the Bear's Warning: Five slashes, ending in crimson droplets, mar (fancier's) features from (his/her) right temple to (his/her) left cheekbone.

Your silver uhl-ring can store up to 50 unwanted suitors in it. To change them, GAZE at the uhl-ring to get the list and then WHISPER uhl-ring REMOVE # to remove the person.

Alterations: An Uhl-Claw must always be made of silver and have a reflective surface for the magic of the item to work. There should be some representation of the five claws of Uhlgeer, the she-bear, and corresponding crimson drops that represent the blood her claws can bring to the surface. Droplets can be made of paint, enamel, lacquer, jewels, etc. Above all, it must have a reflective surface of some kind. If creating a ring, you may use uhl-ring. All other jewelry should have an adjective of "uhl-claw," and this item should never be turned into a solitude ring.
