Honestly, I don't think they really expect anyonemost people to stay awake for all 24 hours of the 24 hour boost. Especially since in the process of earning the exp from said boost, you're very, very, VERY likely to trigger one of the hunting/influencing boosts unless you're past/working on the 10K. And even then...

While this is being brought up...plz2notLetXPBonusCount4XPContest.

Mmm, well things may happen, like the moment you use the golden kiss you're suddenly kidnapped and held hostage by by evil pirate ninjas for 24 hours. That and some of us are just OCD and can't handle the fact that some of those 24 hours will get wasted. It's already bad enough with normal blessings ;(

An artifact that allows you to draw more than 6 hexes in a room.

a trade artifact for artisans that comes in handy. i know its a droll idea, but still.



also, manse orbs that peace a room.


let us attach seals to paintings to perm them.

Springboarding Shaddus's "suggestion"

Either allow the Pantograph to, or create an artifact that lets the owner deconstruct permanent artisan wares for the wood comms used in the construction, or a portion thereof.


Next lot:

Oversized Paint Brush - 15 DB

Allows the user to DOODLE ON . This requires but does not consume EQ/Bal, and puts a line in the victim's description, after the clothing. The shapes can stack, and if so they go into the same sentence. Not using a shape argument will just have it draw a random shape.

* STAR: $target_he has a yellow star drawn on $target_his face.
* CIRCLE: $target_he has a green circle drawn on $target_his face.
* SQUARE: $target_he has a red square drawn on $target_his face.
* TRIANGLE: $target_he has a blue triangle drawn on $target_his face.
* DIAMOND: $target_he has a white diamond drawn on $target_his face.
* BURST: $target_he has a rainbow-coloured starburst drawn on $target_his face.
* FLOWER: $target_he has a white and yellow daisy drawn on $target_his face.
* CANNON: $target_he has some sort of crude, two-wheeled cannon drawn on $target_his face.

If more than one is there it would look like: He has a yellow star, a green circle, and a rainbow-coloured starburst drawn on his face.

So, we have a cloak of thorns. Why not screw the damage, and have a cloak that returns afflictions? Or has a chance to?

For example:

Cloak of Visage

Gives an * chance to return afflictions dealt to you. Cannot be worn with a cloak of thorns. Allows the bearer to rub cloak to increase chances for a particular affliction, for example:

rub cloak asthma

make it a useful dingbat item.

OR or or or

Shield of True Defense

Allows your shield (item) to reflect projectiles back.

Or

Have an item that allows you to *sling* your shield across certain parts of your body, to increase defense in that particular area

Or

Wand of Ice

Shoots out a barrage of ice in targetted direction, briefly stunning all targets in that direction. Shivering targets will become frozen
POINT WAND (direction)

Or

a manse artifact that causes roomwide aeon except for the owner of the manse.

Or

Instead of the Choker of sleep

Allows you to sleep until you decide to wake up. Useful for those who wish to RP mindlessness.

Or

Shopkeeper Tedd

Shopkeeper Tedd is your best friend. He will give you alcohol at a reduced charge. But the moment you leave the room, he will become aggressive towards you if you don't GIVE GLASS TO TEDD when you are done with it. Shopkeeper Tedd had too many customers drop their glass or leave with it, and it's making him lose money.

Robe of Brawn

Wearing this robes makes you look much more fiersome to personal enemies than you really are.

or

...

We already have a Wand of Ice. It makes icewalls. And, we already have a Tedd, though I don't know whether he's a shopkeeper or not. You'd have to ask him.

The cloak sounds interesting but
1) dingbat items are supposed to be less useful
2) it shouldn't be able to actively give afflictions (only the chance)

I think there already is a wand or staff of ice. Expensive auction artifact But I could be very wrong.

And I REALLY like the Choker of Sleep (especially in that form)!!!!!

Idea: An artifact that lets you use NATURE GUARD and/or NATURE GROWTH. Say, an artifact watering can or some such.

EDIT: Cost: 75db? seems more like a dingbat thing than an artifact, really, but if it were an artifact I'd say 100cr-150cr.

Arm-sling
Allows you to behave normally in circumstances where you have 1 arm broken.

Yeah, no.

Artifacts should not be REQUIRED for combat, nor should the introduction of a single artifact significantly alter the field of combat. Ever.

Just noticed, appears to be an artifact for most every aethership module, except for the shield orb.

Maybe make one to make it more effective and/ore take less power to raise a forcefield.

Dingbat artifact: Extendable ear. 100db.
Syntax: EXTEND EAR
Lets you listen in on conversations one room away.

Manse artifact:
Miniature of whispering words

Placing this miniature in a room would give you the ability to speak to another room linked with the miniature.

For instance, Person A says Blah blah blah

You hear in your 'control room' person A says blah blah blah



Big brother is watching you.

dingbat artifact:

copy machine: 200 db

allows you to copy an item for one IG day.

The amount of quests and such that would break until they got recoded is dizzying.

Or to put it more concisely: No.

Rune of Excellence

Incorporates all 5 influencing runes into one.

450 credits.

Idea: people spend less credits in getting all 5, where a person would usually buy 2 or 3.

Plus it's worth less since you're giving up on four "my jewelry never decays" and four "ten extra charges" boosts too. In fact, I'd price it at 400 because of that.

Boots of Leaping (450 credits)

Walking in a direction makes you skip the room ahead of you. Will be stopped by different types of walls that would hurt you as you come down from the skies. Basically you move like this:

When moving east, you would skip the room ahead of you so:

And if there are less than two rooms ahead of you, you would step normally so walking south-east in this instance would mean:

And so on and so forth

That would get irritating in a hurry.
