and the second tradeskill artie already exists. Endowment of the Arts. It was in the last auctions (went for 2k credits). and you have the demi power.


Auction artie is, naturally, not available. And the demi-power is 12 weight in a system that's sort of crap for vanilla demis.

Hence, saying I'd pay good credits to have the artie that was at auction.

More artys!

Severing Scythe:
- Allows you to BEHEAD CORPSE similar to the tracking skill.
- Need not be wielded to use.
<3 You so knew this was coming. Would also allow Ninjas and such to get heads to make masks from!

Gnomish Target Dummy:
- When attacked he can respond with the damage done.
- For monks/warriors he will also relay wounding.
- Acts as normal from any attack but is not effected by afflictions.
I would realllly like to see the above, I think guilds would even buy one in several cases.

Arena Miniature:
- ACTIVATE ARENA inside a manse.
- Creates an arena fulcrux.
- At the fulcrux you can do the following:
  • ENLARGE ARENA (150,000K gold)
  • ENTER ARENA
  • ARENA CLOSE/OPEN

- When you ENLARGE ARENA a room is added, otherwise the arena acts similar to a manse in being able to make links, redescribe, etc.
- Events cannot be started while you are inside the arena. Only allows duels?

Ok thats it for the moment

I am not sure if it is possible to attach a jewelry rune to the baubles used for focus mind enchantments. However, I would like an artifact that was a permanent focus mind enchantment to avoid having to regularly recharge a focus mind enchantment (since charges decay monthly).

You can rune them, but it is a little bit of a pain to remember to charge them periodically. I pretty much lost a debate in Justice because mine wore off with no message at all.

Language Bubble <-- working title
Allows someone to learn one additional language.

Pretentious Sketchbook - someHugeNumber cr

A book that holds sketches (up to 50) that never decay, but can't normally be used to make statues or the like.

-Once per month, SKETCHBOOK READY will create 5 blank pages. (this may cost wood, at Estarra's discretion)
-SKETCHBOOK TABLE to get a 'table of contents' that shows the short name of each sketch you've done and what page it's on.
-SKETCHBOOK SKETCH to make a sketch of something. Must have the skill in Arts to sketch whatever it is and 1 coal.
-SKETCHBOOK SHOW to show the sketch on that page, as if you'd used SHOWOFF on that sketch.
-SKETCHBOOK TEAR to tear a page out of your sketchbook. This turns it into a normal sketch, meaning you can use it in the same way you could a current sketch. It will start decaying unless a sketch seal is applied to it.
-SKETCHBOOK CLEAR to erase a page from your sketchbook without tearing it out.
-SKETCHBOOK DUPLICATE will create a duplicate of a sketch already in your book, at a cost of 2 coal. You must have a blank page to duplicate it to, and it will automatically use the first such page.

Clangorum's Smudgestick- (name pending) absurdNumber cr

Allows you to SKETCH things or ETCH dwarven runes without a coal commodity. Does NOT apply to the Sketchbook, as Clangorum would not approve of that level of pretentiousness at HIS forge!



Also, a question: Are all aetherspace artifacts going to as a rule be dingbat items?

Yes, it does.

Murphy's Hardened Princess Badge

(A gnomish misinterpretation of Murphy's catch phrase, this little badge depicts a nymph wearing full plate and carrying twin flails).

This Device allows you to Block a set list of targeted emotes. Anybody attempting to target you with one of the banned emotions sees this.

An image of a nasty nymph wielding flails cows you into submission, preventing you from finishing your attempted interaction.

Syntax

EMOBAN LIST (lists all your bans)
EMOBAN ADD
EMOBAN REMOVE
EMOBAN CLEAR (clears all settings)


For example

EMOBAN sadcling
EMOBAN flickbooger
EMOBAN zerbert
EMOBAN pounce
EMOBAN bitchslap

(I figured this would be useful to the player base.)

There'd be a limit, maybe 13 or so...

I'm sorry, but I lol'd. I love the idea.
Unknown2011-03-04 04:08:15
I think that one is good because it works on many levels.

It honors the legend of Murphy, and it's not overpowered.
It has a neat twist on the Nymph Fae.
It has a pun in it's command. EMOtionBAN becomes EMO.
I can see players actually wanting this, to prevent them from being assaulted by some over-snuggly emotions. It's also doubles as an automatic message--don't mess with me!

An aethership artifact which works like the scrying mirror, allowing grid scan to return non-cloaked ships from all planes, including which plane, would also return the plane on astralsense, instead of 'a distant plane'.
Razenth2011-03-04 04:43:14

Would buy.
Xiel2011-03-04 04:48:35
An artifact to make nature rain affect the same room and adjacent rooms too. Super-powered firefighting, go!

I also wouldn't mind an artifact to make nature torcs permanent, but I don't know how that'd go over.

I have to admit I would buy one. I think the limit would have to be a lot higher than 13 though. (And I think it's hilarious to name it after Murphy when Murphy would be the first to say it's not needed.)
Unknown2011-03-04 14:48:12
One other idea would be to make that a new sigil as well, predefined at creation, which you could drop in a room and it does the same thing, just for all the listed emotes, targeted or not, in a room.
