HELP ME OUT!

I'm currently stationed in Iraq, as I mentioned. I don't know how long my ability to access this board will last (it used to be restricted and I was denied access to come here). So.. I need things to work on to help alleviate the boredom that comes from your standard desk shift.

Currently, I've been working with customizations. Here's one I came up with for one of Lazul's swords:

SHORT DESC:
Claiomh Solais

LONG DESC:
Glorious blade reflecting even the dimmest light, Claiomh Solais rests silently here.

EXT DESC:
This fabled sword is forged of an extraordinary metal, strong enough to slice through solid stone without leaving so much as a scratch on the blade, yet meticulously balanced and light as a feather. The sinuous blade, shaped much like that of a kris, is of remarkable luster, polished to a mirror-like sheen and never showing any sign of rust or decay. In brighter surroundings, the blade seems to melt away when swung, replaced by a brilliant beam of light. Only in dimmer areas can one see the mystical runes, glowing white with power, engraved into the base of the weapon. The grip of the formidable weapon is wrapped in leather of the purest white, enchanted so that it never darkens or loses its colour, and inset with magnificent white crystals and diamonds that capture light and transform it into a dazzling, prismatic display. From the pommel, a platinum chain tassel leads to a small emblem bearing the crest of Celestia.


This is a "good aligned" sword (for want of a better word), but I can also make evil ones, or neutral ones. I just need a basic idea of what you want done with it:

1) What colour is the blade? The hilt?
2) Does it have runes on it? What colour are they?
3) What gives the weapon its power?


An example, taken from another MUD I played before:

1) A jet-black bow that has a string made of fire and is set with rubies
2) It is not runed.
3) It pulls from the destructive force of Armageddon to empower it.


In case you were wondering, the above bow became "an Apocalypse Bow". Unfortunately, I cannot gain access to the game to get the precise description.


I can work any concept, as long as I have a general idea of what you are looking for. If you would like my assistance with a customization, by all means, please send me a MSG (in-game, please) and let me know what you are looking for and a contact e-mail to send the finished description to.


Thanks!

PS: I can do pets as well. I've designed various members of the Phoenix family of birds (True Phoenix, Lunavian , Arctavian , Thunderbird ), as well as falcons, hawks, mutated beasts, giant birds, various rodentia, dragons, hydras, etc...

Just give me a good base idea to work with, and I can fill in the gaps. smile.gif

This should be in the Last Chance Trading Center section of the Forum, not Creative Arts. unsure.gif

Argh.. sorry. Was thinking "creative descriptions" etc...

If possible, could an admin drop this into "Last Chance", then. Sorry for the mix-up.

Erm, I don't think forged items can be customized.

Mr. Happy. Need I say more?

Forged items with artifacts on them can be customized, otherwise they can't.

Topic moved!

Is that customization... allowed? Claiomh Solais is a mythical OOC sword according to Wikipedia.

Try using

or search
"anonymous web surfing"
on Google.

Many times those sites allow you to bypass the more basic web blocks.
