Artifact Auction
Written by: Galleus, the Sky Sovereign
Date: Sunday, March 27th, 2011
Addressed to: Everyone
A new Artifact Auction has been opened, with numerous unique and
powerful items for your perusal! This auction includes twelve items that
can be purchased with Credits, and five items which are available for
gold purchase. As always, read over HELP AUCTIONS for information on how
auctions work, and how you can place a bid. This auction will run for a
period of seven Aetolian months (roughly one week).
Credit Items
------------------------------
1. A Gypsy Wagon Construction Kit
- This unique item will allow the owner access to a portable four-room
home. The home cannot be expanded beyond its initial capacity, but may
be designed to the user's specifications, and any standard house
additions may be made to it other than new rooms.
2. An Orb of Nullification
- This orb will prevent any actions against you which attempt to
directly force you to perform unintended acts.
3. A Hexagonal Lodestone
- This lodestone will attempt to automatically pick up any items dropped
from the corpses of slain denizens, including gold. It will also
occasionally attempt to pick up items on the ground if they can be
taken.
4. A Gravitational Yoke
- When worn, the gravitational yoke will make it more difficult for
anyone but the wearer to depart the room, making normal movement as slow
as if clambering over rubble.
5. A Market Stall Construction Kit
- A perennial favorite, the market stall construction kit is a portable
shopfront from which the owner can sell his or her wares without
limitation. Note that the shopfront can only be set up in those rooms
where an IN exit is available.
6. The Intaglio of Artos
- Allows the user to customise his or her enter and entrance messages.
Subject to administrative approval.
7. A Prayer Book
- With the prayer book, one may resurrect anyone within the local area
who has died once per day.
8. Essence of Misdirection
- The ESsence of Misdirection allows the user access to the Lycanthrope
Mark ability, which hides the user's location on the WHO list based upon
where the Essence is used.
9. Izu-Ari's Dice
- Once per Aetolian month, the owner may roll Izu-Ari's dice and receive
a bonus of +1 to one or two of his or her stats, and/or a health or mana
bonus of 5%.
10. A Bottomless Vial
- This vial may be filled with any elixir or serum, and will never run
out.
11. A Set of Inking Tools
- These inking tools allow the user to ink tattoos with double the uses,
and never requires any ink in order to do so.
12. The Elindes Talisman
- This talisman has 6 petals upon it which may be plucked at any time,
and each petal, when consumed, will restore the health, mana, blood,
endurance, and willpower of the owner. If consumed by anyone else, the
petals will restore only the endurance and willpower of that person. The
petals regrow at a rate of one per month.
Gold Items
------------------------------
1. A Pet Token
- This token entitles the owner to one pet, as per HELP PETS, and
includes the full package normally valued at 900 Credits.
2. A Pouch of 50 Bloody Iron Coins
- This pouch contains 50 Bloody Iron Coins. These may be used to
purchase items on HELP COIN ARTIFACTS.
3. A Pouch of 100 Bloody Iron Coins
- This pouch contains 100 Bloody Iron Coins. These may be used to
purchase items on HELP COIN ARTIFACTS.
4. A Ring of the Aquatic
- This ring has the power to both flood a room with water, and to part
the water from any room.
5. A House Deed
- This deed entitles the owner to a house of their own in any location,
with 10 total rooms. The house may be added to as normal thereafter.
