Yeah you need to make sure you are blind and deaf when fighting Impy bards.

Don't know much about artifacts, and didn't read the first few pages so tell me if something like these already exist.


Aethermanse Artifacts:

Gnomish Destructo-Bot - 1500 credits
- Kills people who perform agressive actions in the room.
- Can be tuned against people thingys like totems and statues
- Can be set to patrol the manse or stand guard in one room (I think organization guards work this way too?)
- Invincible
- Lasers are a must of course

Pacifism Gem - 100 credits
- Peaces the room, like at the Portal of Fate.

it's called manse clear fulcrux perms

zomg! Wand of Icicles!!!!!!!!

MANSE CLEAR FULCRUX PERMS clears all perms as it says, and then, ANYONE can enter

I had random people popping into my manse before I could figure out how it works

Something that allows Bards to imbue up to 3 milestones.

Artifact of anti-bumming

this very artifact that grants you ability to dodge or avoids the annoying and bumming cows/Sheeps.

That would be sweet.

"This artifact makes you immune to the begging of the random kid trying to bum your cigs"

I would seriously love to have an artifact like this:

NAME: Burning
TOUCH BURNING
Description: Given an aura of destruction, they will slowly deplete the health of everyone around them including their own. NOT STACKABLE.
If cast on an ally, will cause that ally to give an aura of healing, healing everyone around them slowly.
CREDITS 450

or

NAME: Retribution
Passive Touch Retribution
Upon death, you will deal a large amount of damage to the target that killed you. Can only be cast ONCE per Lusternian Month.
CREDITS 550


or

NAME: Rune of Hearing
passive
When you play a blankchord or blanknote at a target, they will not be able to make themselves deaf for a longer period of time.
CREDITS 150

or, the greatest thing of all

NAME: Wand of Superego
You will receive a new skill in your music specialization upon wielding this wand, in which you can summon a superego of yourself to follow you as long as the song is being played. It will automatically attack all enemies at melee range, with a greatsword. Costs 10 power to summon, and will again cost another 10 power if it is killed. It will stay with you as long as the song is being played, and would automatically DEFEND you.
CREDITS 2000

That would be pure awesomeness. Pure.

edit:

The Wand of Superego would change depending on your affliations. If you are part of Celest, you will have a summoned essence of Methrenton to protect you. If you are from Magnagoria, you will have the Summoned Essence of (Name a dark lord here). The Serenwilders Summoned essence of the Hart, Summoned Essence of the Crow for Glomies.

I quite like that as an idea. Would need a proper artifact name etc, though.



I seem to remember that vengeance in necromancy was pretty crap. But I haven't played for a while. I'd prefer to see this in a skillset in any case.. or not at all. Copy cat skills are dull.



No.



I don't much like this either. If you're going to have a 2k credit arti, why make it bard only? And it sounds overpowered.

I think he was kidding about the superego... At least, I hope he was.

...its a dream... would be a truly spectacular skill....
and I would pay something of around 2 k credits for it. Personalized skill....


mhmm...

but in reality, that wouldn't be created, nor would the rune of hearing..

Superego sounds like a pet.. only with combat usefulness - thus possibly op.

you can't really ahve the rune of hearing. If it takes longer to recover earwort than the instant death song takes, then it's blanknote attract death with almost no way out other tahn relying on moving the bard.

Sextant
200cr
Allows the Astrologer who bears it to STARGAZE without use of an Astrolabe, so long as they are outdoors.

Bets on people misunderstanding what a Sextant is ingame?

That's okay, artisans can make a sextent and sell it to astrologers too, to further the confusion.

Gnomic Saw: The holder of this saw will get twice as much raw lumber whenever they mulch or chop down a tree. Purpose: to help unskew the odd economics that makes wood cost 2-3x as much as cut gems, which is caused by many things, but one of them is the presence of jeweler's hammers which substantially increase cut gem production.

With the way Serenwilde's wood reserves are piling up, you may find the price of wood dropping to be on par with those cut gems after all. :S

can ecologists make sextents too?
