The Gambling kit originated with the merchant Gostahl who owned the Albatross gambling boat.

Basic gambling kits have 2 tiers to unlock. Tier 2 kits are fully unlocked. There is one level above this called "auction" level which may include additional games and hold coins weightlessly.

Fully unlocked "auction level" kits have been released that hold 50,000 silvers with two games, and other kits exist that hold various silver quantities in between, some have even been released with self-knowledge of various spells. Some of the games that might be installed on a gambling kit include Roulette and Adventure Wheel. Gambling kits, when unlocked, also unfold into a table that can be placed on the ground.

OTS

Off the shelf verbs include CLOSE and OPEN. The kit cannot be placed on the ground nor changed into a table. In its current state, it can not hold any silvers, and does not have any games.

Analyze

You analyze your red oak case and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:

The red oak case isn't unlocked.

This item must stay a case or kit of some sort.  When altering, keep in mind that the case's messaging references it having a small, large, and secret compartment, a cubbyhole, and a narrow slot.  The table (on top) cannot be deepened.

Try as you might, you cannot get a good sense of whether or not the case's pockets could get any deeper, but you can tell that the case is as light as it can get.

Auction

Auction-level gambling kits may include additional games and hold coins weightlessly.

Analyze

You analyze your quartz stone case and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:

The quartz stone case is fully unlocked with special features.

This item must stay a case or kit of some sort.  When altering, keep in mind that the case's messaging references it having a small, large, and secret compartment, a cubbyhole, and a narrow slot.  The table (on top) cannot be deepened.

This item can have a custom description when placed on the ground and can hold 25000 silvers weightlessly.

The current description when placed on the ground is a bejeweled quartz stone sideboard with a show/long description of a bejeweled quartz stone sideboard embossed with a coiled maze roa'ter.

You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the quartz stone case for you or have its pockets deepened.

Usage

Verb First Third
SPIN You give the roulette wheel within the linden case placed alongside you a spin, which causes the silver ball to roll around the outer ring of the wheel. As the roulette wheel begins slowing down, the silver ball clangs over several numbered slots. Once the wheel comes to a stop, the ball settles on red 12.

Roundtime: 2 sec.
