Subject: Sparrow's Dance

Brought to you from a secret estate in the country on the outskirts of Ta'Nalfein, the Sparrow's Dance is a brand new shop at Duskruin that will be featuring fighting fans.

These unique fans can not have their nouns changed at all, but when they are open they have a katar base and when they are closed they have a blackjack base. They are designed to be used in pairs, but can be used singly and come off the shelf at tier 1 of five.

The tier breakdown is as follows:

Tier Single Weapon Benefit Cooldown Dual Wielding Benefit Cooldown Verbs
1 Stance Verbose Stance Verbose Close, Open, Remove, Wear
Custom Parry Message Custom Parry Message
2 Gust Attack: SMR2, 1 Target is put into RT and their stance is lowered 1 min. Upon successful parrying, 25% chance of reactive flare against attacker 10 sec. Flip, Slap, Spin, Turn, Cover
3 Thunder Attack: SMR2, 1 Target is put into RT and any prepped spell is lost 1 min. Upon successful parrying, 25% chance to enter next defensive stance 10 sec. Bow, Clap, Curtsy, Ponder, Whisper (works with Ranger ability)
4 AoE Gust Attack, SMR2 Attack for up to 3 + Tier target, putting them into RT and lowering their stance 10 min. Upon parrying and in RT, 25% chance to enter next defensive stance during RT, then revert when player's RT has expired 10 sec. Point, Pose, Push, Pull, Wave
5 AoE Thunder Attack, SMR2 Attack for up to 3 + Tier target, putting them into RT and causing them to drop any prepared spell 10 min. 30 seconds (activated), enter the next defensive stance after attacking. 10 min. Nudge, Tilt, Toss, Twitch, Twist
Access to Dance of the Sparrow chain

Tier 4 - dual wielding benefit expanded - If you parry while you are in RT and in, say, offensive stance, then this will move you into forward stance, then once the RT is over, move you back to offensive.

Tier 5 - dual wielding benefit expanded - Activated with nudge, within 30 seconds every time you attack your stance will be shifted by 1 tier instantly. You can manually re-stance as desired. Please note, this will never drop you into a full defensive stance. This has a 10-minute cool down once it expires.

Customizing Your Fan - Mechanically

You may enchant, ensorcel, or add flares to your fan.

It innately comes with air flares when it is open and lightning when it is closed, but can only have a single flare-type added to it.

Customizing your Fan Cosmetically

Closed: You may change the article and adjective, as well as the show and/or long description.

Open: You may change the article and adjective, as well as the show and/or long description.

Please note: The above should make sense together.

The Entire Fan can have the following customized:
Prominent Color
Prominent Design
Panel Material
Slat/Blade Material

A Peek Into the Fluffy Verbs
flip my fan
Balancing the handle of your open steel fan on your fingertips, you give the device a barely perceptible nudge that flips it in the air. In a blue blur, the fan tumbles twice, only to land back where it started.

curtsy fan
Moving your right foot behind your left, you dip into a demure curtsy while coquettishly fluttering your steel fan in front of your face.

close my fan
Flicking your left wrist, you close your steel fan with a small clap as its blades click together.

curtsy fan
Bobbling a quick curtsy, you offer a small smile as you twirl your closed steel fan around by the loop on the end of its handle.

point my fan
You point your closed steel fan at a space in front of you with an air of expectation.

point fan at wyrd
You point your closed steel fan at a vapid air wyrdling and then at a space in front of you with an air of expectation.

whisper
Leaning into you, Thandiwe shields her mouth with her open steel fan.
Thandiwe whispers, "Testing."

Leaning into SoandSo, Thandiwe shields her mouth with her open steel fan and whispers something inaudible.
