These services will be awarded partially by auction, partially by raffle.

Permanent bow sighting

GM Sirina announced prior to the event that 5 slots for permanent bow sighting will be given out for each run.

These services will be awarded partially by auction, partially by raffle.

Adding Yfane/Nalea gown script to existing gowns

Enchanting weapons & armor, including limited exceptional enchanting

For each run, GM Varulv posted that he would have 10 spots to enchant "regular" weapons. Not kroderine, coraesine, adamantine, zelnorn, etc; no combat-affecting scripts; nothing over heavy weighting. Flares are OK, but come with a surcharge. The max resulting enchant is +40 and no weapon will be enchanted more than once throughout the event. Bows will not be considered by this particular enchanter.

As an example of the pricing, consider a handaxe with fire flares:
4x -> 5x: 100,000.
5x -> 6x: 500,000.
6x -> 7x: 1,000,000.
7x -> 8x: 2,000,000.

A non-flaring flamberge:
4x -> 5x: 50,000.
5x -> 6x: 500,000.
6x -> 7x: 800,000.
7x -> 8x: 1,800,000.

On each run, two "exceptional" weapons will be enchanted, with the maximum resulting enchant at +50. One will be raffled; the other auctioned. These may be claidhmores or other exceptionally weighted weapons. This may be an enchant to a TD or DB boost. This includes kroderine, zelnorn, and adamantine.

Combat-affecting scripts considered to be "exceptional": Iasha' white ora flares
Greater Black Ora
Ironwright's Blessing Flares
Rotating/Switchable Flares
Self Mana Spell Weapons
Returners
Snake Weapons
Mechanical Flares
Poison Flares
Polearm Flares
Knockout Flares

Naginatas are treated as having an extra +20 for the purposes of enchanting. So, a naginata with a +10 enchant would be enchanted as if it were going from +30 to +35, and would fall within the normal weapon enchanting slots. A vultite naginata would be treated as going from +40 to +45 and would require an exceptional slot.

Unfortunately, bandoliers will not be enchantable under this service.

The flaming swords, shadowdeath weapons, and variable weighting vs living/flares vs. undead weapons are all hardcoded and can't have their enchant changed.

Spell Knowledge Enhancive

Snake flares

Naionna posted a hint that she would be selling snake flares. She posted that they would not work on bows.

In the past, the snake flares came in 4 flavors: Paralyzation, Poison, something and something. The paralyzation flare will root an affected target in place. At previous events, a winner was able to choose from one flare, or a rotation of all flares.

Enhancive conversions

GM Varulv announced prior to the event that he would be doing enhancive conversions. He will take an enhancive item and change the enhancive to a different skill in the same skill set. For example, he would change a OHE-enhancing item to a Polearm-enhancing item.

Lores can be changed to other lores.
