Wermth are wearable, poseable snakes first sold for silvers by NPC merchant Ambie at premium Windfellow's Retreat 2020 on Mist Harbor. These items create a unique character feature line in a character's LOOK which does not conflict with any other unique feature lines.

Ambie brought a bucket of snakes and pulled out a random snake for each person who was selected. The snake could be a large onyx-scaled mamba, a thin banded pit viper, a slender black garter snake, or a sinuous diamondback rattlesnake. Those snakes can then be customized to virtually any type of snake, with the common sense limitation that it needs to be of a size that the messaging makes sense (a fairly large snake which can still be worn without difficulty).

Analyze

>anal my rattlesnake
You analyze your diamond-backed rattlesnake and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

This is a wearable, poseable snake. When worn, it parks itself in your UNIQUE feature field.

This particular snake currently looks like this:

a slender diamond-backed rattlesnake

The snake's description can be altered by any merchant who feels comfortable doing so. Remember: This must remain a fairly large snake for the messaging to work.

This diamond-backed rattlesnake is fully unlocked to Tier 3. Verbs are: Mumble, Wear, Remove, Rub, Touch, Pose, Dance, Nudge, Prod, Wave, and Lean. Ambients have also been unlocked, and are toggled off and on via the PROD verb.

These snakes are only able to be worn for a limited amount of time before they become too uncomfortable and slither down into your hands. If you remove them manually before that point, you're fine, but if they get to the point of exhaustion, there will be a one hour cooldown while it rests up before it may be worn again.

This diamond-backed rattlesnake may be worn for about 80 minutes before becoming exhausted and entering cooldown mode.

Cooldown Mode

The snakes are living things, and are 'forcing' themselves into a pose for you. They can only hold it for so long before they will come unstuck and put themselves into your hands. If your hands are full at that time, you get a message about how the snake is uncomfortable, and time gets added to the cooldown period before it can be worn again. Go AFK with your hands full and you could be faced with a LONG time before your snake can be worn again!
