This gown allows for Metamorphic Alterations - the Original Version. You can try to RUB the gown to cycle through various aesthetics.

Alteration Services:
Any willing merchant may alter existing sides. Each side will count as 1 service. On the rare occasion, there will be clearly stated exceptions to this.
The base 15/15/15 must make sense for all sides.
ALL sides must be either a long or ALL sides must be a show.
If you are changing the base, or changing from a long to a show (or a show to a long), merchants will update the other sides accordingly; however, due to the time sink, some merchants may decline the alteration.

Currently this item has <span style="color:blue">2</span> sides.

Side-Adding Services ("Unlocking"):
If you have 2 or fewer sides, any willing merchant may add 1 additional side.
If you have 3-5 sides, a handful of merchants may add 1 additional side during a session:
Blusteri, Ianwel, Rashiva, Roxe, Shahno, Sharlatta, Sophella, Toffit
[Other merchants will clearly announce if they have temporary ability.]
[The above merchants may additionally or alternatively change your item so that it is
the Expanded Version. This is a one-way change (no take backsies!). Depending on the
number of sides you have, this can become a very time-intensive process, and as a result,
some merchants may decline.]

If you have 6+ sides, adding more is a special service that will not often be offered.

This gown may be altered by a talented merchant. If the gown has more than one long or show aesthetic, then any base description must make sense for all of the different aesthetics, and most merchants can only alter one of the aesthetics in a single sitting. If the gown only has one aesthetic, a handful of merchants may be willing and able to add a second aesthetic. An even smaller handful of merchants may be able to add even more aesthetics, but finding such a handful will be difficult.

The base 15/15/15 is set up as "an aubergine,bourde,gown", and the the item is set up for LONG descriptions.

Currently, <span style="color:blue">2</span> sides total are set up:

SIDE ONE: an aubergine bourde gown with overlapping cotton gauze skirts
SIDE TWO: an aubergine bourde gown buttoned with tiny garnets

Revision as of 09:35, 25 March 2017

Revolving Images items are sold off the shelf with two sides, and can be swapped between the sides using RUB. Eligible items include chestworn, cloakworn, legworn, and footworn, and potentially more. More sides can be added, but only in rare circumstances and only by a select few merchants willing to do so. Alteration rules do apply, and it is important to note that all sides must be either LONGs or SHOWs, not a mixture of both, and need to be the same base item.
