*Nifty Scripty*

Have you ever wished there was a certain item in game? Well now is your chance to design one.
For this month's contest, you're to design a fluff-only item with a few actions of what you'd like it to do.

Here are the requirements:

1. Design a short or long description of the prop/item. With a brief description of what the item is meant to do
and what verbs you'll be using in 2, 4 and 6.
2. List a verb to interact with the item and give 1st person messaging.
3. Give the 3rd person messaging for # 2.
4. List another verb to interact with the item and 1st person messaging.
5. Give the 3rd person messaging for # 4.
6. List a third verb to interact with the item and 1st person messaging.
7. Give the 3rd person messaging for # 6.
8. Item and concept must be fluff only - Nothing mechanical!

Example of a Submission:

Superspecs:
1. A pair of wire-framed glasses - a pair of glasses that can be worn to alter your appearance, specially in the nose feature.
2. Wear - You carefully perch a pair of wire-framed glasses on your nose.
3. Susie carefully places her glasses upon her nose.
4. Turn - You turn your glasses over in your hands, carefully inspecting them for any defects.
5. Susie turns her glasses over in her hands, carefully inspecting all the parts.
6. Gaze - You gaze through the lenses of your glasses, amazed at how much clearer the world is with them on.
7. Susie gazes through the lenses of her glasses with a look of amazement.

1. a battered military cap with an antique emblem - meant to represent military service either long ago or fake - WEAR, SALUTE, RUB
2. WEAR - You place the cap atop your head in one smooth, precise motion. That's showing them how it's done.
3. Person awkwardly slaps his military cap onto his head and nudges it a couple of times to get it in place. Between the skewed angle and a few loose wisps of hair, something suggests he may not have worn it recently.
4. SALUTE - You snap to attention and bring your hand up to your military cap in a crisp, sharp salute offering full respects.
5. Person begins to raise his right hand before halting and offering a bizarre, overly intricate salute with his left. It goes on for some time.
6. RUB - You subtly polish a non-existent smudge on the insignia of your military cap, making sure to draw special attention to the distinguishing mark for valor. Honor? Something like that.
7. Person clears their throat and gestures dramatically to indicate the baffling insignia on their military cap. Some unidentifiable creature with mysterious anatomy stands rampant, all color washed away by time.
