Question:
Obelins: Can the Dreamfire (scenery?) panels be altered by a merchant to show a room that doesn't exist/is inaccessible?
Answer:
Meraki: At the moment, the only merchant able to alter the concealed illusions is Elusionari. I wasn't planning on altering the scenery panels (raffling unlocks was supposed to cover this) but you raise an interesting point about capturing locations that no longer exist. That is a very niche request and I'll have to think it over. 

What I will NOT be doing as a live alter is creating custom scenery panels with imaginary rooms. So if I ever am willing to alter the scenery panels directly to create rooms that don't exist, it'll have to be offered as a delayed service and follow QC guidelines for room descriptions.

Meraki: Just a friendly reminder since there is a Dreamfire Panel Alteration Session happening today[2022-07-26]:

Any willing merchant may alter these portions of a dreamfire panel:
- base description (15/15/panel)
- gesture style override
- illusion color override
- illusion material override
- illusion modifier (customer must provide dye additive)

At this specific event, there may be merchants who are also able to alter:
- base description of concealed illusion (15/15/illusion)

Until notified otherwise, only Elusionari can alter:
- long description of concealed illusion (defined by alter 3)
- show description of concealed illusion (defined by alter 4)

The panel itself may not have a long/show description. Only the concealed illusion supports long/show alterations.

Q&A / NOTES

"The base description on the panel is what the base illusion will look like, or can you have the panel look one way and the illusion differently? (not the concealed illusion)"

  • "The base description of the panel is what that outer illusion will look like, yes."

Examples (posted with permission)

Casinoe: "a washed-up" "pirate" "panel" / "a Pirate" "Captain Casinoe" "illusion"

Clusters of twin stars tumultuously pour out of Casinoe's hammered copper raxiara, each pairing's chaotic dance causing them to wobble uncertainly through the air, teasing at an image.  There is a brief pause as all of the clusters simultaneously shudder, halting their dance, whilst remaining suspended in the air.  The tiny clusters then coalesce together and shift until the image of a Pirate Captain Casinoe illusion is revealed.

Although a Pirate Captain Casinoe illusion does well to replicate its source imagery, it wavers occasionally, somewhat ruining the effect.

Laelithonel: "a golden" "firefly" "panel" / "a reclining" "plump panda" "illusion"

Laelithonel reaches out with a graceful gesture and activates the panel of her skyglass raxiara, releasing colorful motes of light into the air that slowly coalesce into a reclining plump panda illusion.

The amply rotund illusory panda reclines with one paw resting on his pleasantly plump belly.  A few fireflies float directly above the sedentary creature, their movement drawing the panda's attention.  With each shift of the illusion, the tiny glowing firefly lights blink in and out of golden luminescence.  Although a reclining plump panda illusion does well to replicate its source imagery, it wavers occasionally, somewhat ruining the effect.
