Live Auction Notice

[DCSL]

Alright, I've wiped out five of my characters and I'm going to sell off some of their stuff, hopefully to people who will use it. There're about fifty items and they will be auctioned off live in Lysistrata's shop in Landing over two nights, February 25th and 26th both starting at 9 pm EST. There will be someone to take people there from TSC on both nights.

All items will start out with a one coin minimum bid, and while I'm not going to post a full list of everything that's going to be sold, there's a selection of stuff down below.

My email has been *really* iffy for the last two months (haven't been getting emails people swear they've sent me!) so hold your questions until the nights of the auctions or IM me at lisslalissar on AIM.



a glistening membranous cloak fashioned like a pair of huge folded bat wings
Weighs 4 lbs.
Holds VLA

an ivory-hilted eahnor greatsword
+18 blessable

an emerald-inlaid ebonwood water cannon
The usual kind of water cannon!

a pair of slim thigh-high black leather boots with pointed toes
Hold 14 small items!

a beady-eyed blue crow charm
SimuCon messenger bird charm

a sleek rolaren-clasped case
Crafted of a deep black leather, the sleek case is designed with a secure clasp of a fine chain around a hexagonal rolaren button stamped with the sigil of Ta'Nalfein. Lined in black, padded silk with various loops, hooks, and pockets sewn into the inside fabric, the case is able to securely hold a variety of tools useful in lockpicking without fear of the contents shifting and making noise at an inopportune moment.
H4H2 prize

a rectangular blued steel quiver
Raffled mechanical quiver (makes arrows that will flare whatever spell you cast on it).

a long front-split tasset of diamond-shaped black glaes scales

some sharp-toed glossy crocodile skin boots

a svelte pitch black leather corset
The corset is crafted of stiffened black leather reinforced with internal boning and lined with fine, tough spidersilk for comfort. More of the same spidersilk is used to lace the corset down the back, adjusting for the tightest fit. Rich ebony dobrem fur trims the corset at the austere high collar and again at the pointed hemline. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.
4x armor corset

a lustrous absinthe satin kirtle laced down the front and sides with bronze chains
Pin-worn

some high-collared heavy black linen robes with long deep sleeves
4x somewhat crit-padded

some elven crimson eahnor ringmail
Wrought from blazing crimson eahnor rings, the exquisite ringmail covers the torso, arms, and legs with its sturdy protection. Short only a coif, the suit is intricately linked in a traditional four-in-one pattern extending to the wrist at the arms and calf at the legs. The fit of the armor can be adjusted using leather points, which are laced through wide leather hems on the back of the suit. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.
Twice lightened to 20 lbs. Full 6x!

some black suede chaps side-buckled with a multitude of straps

a graceful pale azure chainsil cotehardie with tiny sun-embossed buttons
Nalea gown

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

tell more about the quiver?

[Daniel]

Do you have the lockpick that came with that case?

[DCSL]

Quiver is the limited kind that will break down eventually. Basically.. you get some arrow shafts, put them in the quiver, put paint (if you want it on your arrow) in the quiver, close the quiver, cast an offensive spell on it (like minor fire or what have you), then turn the quiver and it'll churn out some arrows that will flare whatever the spell it is you put on there.

[DCSL]

Yep, got the lockpick. It'll be sold with the case.

[Kitsun]

Because I save tons of crap info from merchant events. Torkington's explanation of the mechanical quivers.


Torkington says, "The first step is to take a bundle of prepared shafts, either from wood or bone."
>
Torkington says, "I have some mossbark prepared from earlier."
>
Torkington removes a bundle of rough mossbark arrow shafts from in his dark spidersilk pack.

Torkington places his arrow shafts into the chute inside the open hatch on the front of his black steel quiver.

Torkington points at a matte black steel quiver.

Torkington says, "If you wish, you can also add a bit of fletchig paint."
>
Torkington removes some royal blue paint from in his dark spidersilk pack.

Torkington slides his royal blue paint into the compartment fitted into the open hatch on the front of his black steel quiver until it stops with an audible *CLICK*.


Torkington says, "After that, you can cast a spell at the quiver, which will be absorbed into the ring on top, here..."
>
Torkington ponders.


>
Torkington gestures at a matte black steel quiver.
A small ring mounted on the top of the black steel quiver frosts over with the cold, drawing the energy toward its center.


Torkington says, "Now, just a little turn of the crank on the side..."
>
Torkington tries to turn the crank on the side of his black steel quiver, but its front hatch seems to interfere.
>
Torkington swiftly shuts the hatch on the front of his black steel quiver, the door sliding smoothly along its hinges.
>
As Torkington begins turning the crank on the side of his black steel quiver, you hear the churning of gears followed by a series of grinding and cutting noises. A shrill, high-pitched whistling sound emanates from within as steam rises from a series of vented slits on the top of the quiver. Finally, the sounds begin to fade as the crank rolls through the last bit of resistance.


>
Torkington swiftly opens the hatch on the front of his black steel quiver, the door sliding smoothly along its hinges.


Torkington removes a bundle of spiraled royal blue mossbark-shafted arrows from in his black steel quiver.


Torkington says, "These arrows will be imbued with the element of cold from the cast of Major Cold that the quiver absorbed."


Torkington swiftly shuts the hatch on the front of his black steel quiver, the door sliding smoothly along its hinges.
>
Torkington put a bundle of spiraled royal blue mossbark-shafted arrows in his silver case.


Torkington says, "The quiver can absorb many types of spells, mostly of the elemental or holy nature."
>
Torkington smiles.


Torkington says, "Do take note that the pieces need to be in proximity of the quiver to keep its influence."


Torkington says, "As the sign states... they are good for a couple hundred pieces or so before they break down."
>
Torkington says, "That has been a commonality in all of my earlier experiments."


Torkington says, "However, it should be possible for me to fix them, given the proper tools and time."


>read sign
In the Common language, it reads:
I have recently been tinkering away at a new type of quiver that should bring convenience to any archer's life. Although my experiments are still on-going, I have decided to raffle off a number of my earlier works. Though they do not tend to last for more than a couple hundred pieces, they have shown a great amount of promise. If all goes well, I may raffle something more recent at a later time.

Please note that those who have won a minor mechanical quiver in the past are ineligible for the raffle.

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

could you cast say... implosion at it? Or cone of lightning, etc?

[DCSL]

Cone of lightning maybe, but I don't know about implosion. He said elemental or holy in nature.

[DCSL]

[Shari]

Damnit I ALWAYS miss her announcments for her live auctions. Who got that corset armor? I must hunt them down and maim them.
