High End Toys

[Belnia]

Looking for trades of other high end toys. I have a special interest in transportation items. Not interested in weapons or armor, with the exception of self-ammo long bows or non-handaxe bandoleers. Not really looking for coins, just listing a value of what I consider them worth.

a heavy wyrwood crossbow embedded with chiseled emeralds
Enhancive knowledge of Sneaking.
Approximately 45m.

a glaes-paneled slim mithril bracer
5 setting ring holder. Wrist worn.
Approximately 30m.

an umbral shade-skink
Living shadow-lizard. Lives in skin, etc. etc.
Approximately 25m.

an engraved blued steel tinderbox
3x a day minor sanctuary campfires. Warms in cold areas.
Approximately 20m.

a brass-inset four balled bola
+20, entanglement flares
Returning.
Approximately 15m.

an engraved faenor dulcimer charm
Permanent spectral instrument pin.
Approximately 10m.

[Izzy]

an umbral shade-skink
Living shadow-lizard. Lives in skin, etc. etc.
Approximately 40m.

?!?!?!
What the crap, bot.

[Belnia]

From Ebon Gate. I got one early on, tried it out, decided it wasn't for me and it's now up for adoption so to speak.

>pet my shade
You gently probe the body of the umbral shade-skink. As your fingers press against its oily-slick skin, tiny aurorae ripple outward from the point of contact. They limn the nearby flesh in mother-of-pearl hues that are slow to fade.
>tap my shade
You tap your umbral shade-skink on its tiny shoulder, soliciting a wave of pastel hues that echoes along the length of its body before fading into shadow. The creature's pale eyes narrow in what appears to be irritation.
>wear my shade
You grip your umbral shade-skink carefully about its neck and hold the creature over your other arm. The shade-skink seems to sense what is about to happen, and it begins to twitch and quiver with terror. Its keening cries bite at your mind like daggers as you lower it into your skin. Instead of contacting your flesh like a solid being ought to, the shade-skink sublimates into a slick, chill mist that bites into your waiting flesh. You feel something shift beneath your skin and rub at it, swiftly warming the area. As you withdraw your hand, you note with satisfaction that the lizard has metamorphosed into a vague lizard-shaped mark on your arm.
>clench my mark
Closing your eyes and concentrating, you flex your arm, forcing blood into the area immediately surrounding your lizard-shaped mark. A sudden light-headedness skews your thoughts and bearings as the mark draws blood from your body.
>rem my mark
Your lizard-shaped mark takes on the form of a small, shadowy creature as it oozes into your free hand.

Plenty of others, has idle scripts if held in the hand.

[NocturnalRob]

i honestly want to know why these are going for so much. Is it a result of a small supply or the fact that people are currently EG crazy? does it have any mechanical advantage?

[Belnia]

No mechanical advantages, and a very small supply. Like 8 in digging, and 10 raffled? Something like that. They're not attuned, and some people like pets.

It's perfect for that lonely Onarian that no one likes?

[NocturnalRob]

hahaha...fair enough. oh, can you have more than one at a time?

[Tea & Strumpets]

I don't know what you are trying to imply, but a crossbow with a sneaking enhancive is worth at least 45 million (if not 50).

[Belnia]

You can hold more than one, but I don't think anyone has tried wearing 2 in their skin at the same time. Maybe they'll fight or breed or something. I doubt it though, but it would be hilarious.

sigh...talking about the shadow-lizard...

hahaha...2 shadow-pets breeding in your skin. 3 or more for an orgy!

Then you'd pretty much just have a shadow army. Train them and rock out sort of like Shikamaru from Naruto...huge nerd? this guy.

[Izzy]

I'm sure it would double the rate of limb-exploding joy.

Finally got my mark removed, so I can prevent my gecko from wtfpwning me every few hours. They better fix them soon.

[Tolwynn]

Not a fix, but if your mark says it can't be removed even when no clothing is over it, going to one of the baths will act as a sort of reset and let you remove it, then.

[Durgrimst]

an engraved faenor dulcimer charm
Permanent spectral instrument pin.
Approximately 10m.

These are mastercrafted correct?

[Danical]

Could you elaborate more on the instrument please?

[Durgrimst]

Yes, I second that, but only if you don't let Gnimble have it.

[Belnia]

Instrument and charm have shows. Has a loresong. But getting the instrument altered is going on impossible. The charm could be altered easily, but not the instrument it makes. It can summon the dulcimer whenever you want, as many times as you want. It is NOT a master quality instrument, else the price would be much more.

>rub faenor charm
As you rub your faenor dulcimer charm, a pale mist swirls sinuously down your arm and coalesces into the form of a spectral faenor-strung dulcimer in your left hand.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
>wave my dulc
You wave your faenor-strung dulcimer, trailing thin streamers of mist in its wake.
>breathe my dulc
You purse your lips and blow a thin stream of air at a spectral faenor-strung dulcimer. Its insubstantial mists coil inward, then gradually reform.

>lick my dulcimer
You try to lick your faenor-strung dulcimer, but your tongue finds only mist. It leaves a oddly bitter taste in your mouth.
>drop my dulcimer
Your faenor-strung dulcimer dissipates.

[Danical]

Pretty rad except for the Cast RT.

It won't replace my "ugly pine lute."

[Durgrimst]

I was hoping for master crafted, damn.

[Danical]

I should know, but don't, wtf does a master crafted instrument do for you? How many exist?

[Durgrimst]

I just have always wanted a master crafted one.

Shrug

[Belnia]

Master instruments let you get the final few tiers of play messaging. And there are 1 or 2 for each instrument type.

[Danical]

oh, that's pretty cool.

Admittedly, I min/max and only pull out the instrument when using 1020. I haven't RP'd for more than 5 contiguous minutes in years.

[Belnia]

5 setting ring holder added.

[Belnia]

Sylvan speaking figurine added.

[Belnia]

Skink prices are dropping like oil!

[AnticorRifling]

Skink prices are dropping like oil! Lower production that will fix it!

[Belnia]

I, for one, am enjoying $2.07 a gallon. I get to fill up for under $25. That's awesome.

[Allereli]

I was just up there for class last night. I live in northern VA.

[Belnia]

Buy (trade) my junk!

[Danical]

[Inspire]

$1.95 - Cemetary Rd, 43026

[Belnia]

Bump! Just like Zuie's baby bump. Everyone should congratulate her on her pregnancy!

[Belnia]

Bump. Added more things. Still looking for a self-ammo long bow.

[Durgrimst]

a pair of faenor-traced white steel bracers
Spiked. Disruption flares.
+8 to strength, +6 to brawling. Takes brawling ranks to get the enhancives. Persistant.
Potentially awesome depending on what sort of maneuvers monks get.
Approximately 10m.

Vulcan death pinch or a karate chop to the throat?

[Stretch]

Very good ... but brick not hit back.

[Belnia]

Bump. Still looking for a self ammo longbow.

More loot added. Bump.

[Durgrimst]

You should give me the handaxe bandolier and I will give you 1 coin for every critter that Ardwen kills from now until Monks come out.

Deal???

[Izzy]

Isn't the banshee shield spiked too?

[thefarmer]

Yes

[Androidpk]

Then you'd be paying twice the asking price!

[Durgrimst]

Either you are being sarcastic or you don't know Ardwen.

[StrayRogue]

Does wearing that crossbow still give you the Sneaking spell?

[Belnia]

If it did, you would be paying far more! Has to be held in hand to gain the bonus.

[Izzy]

If it did, you would be paying far more! Has to be held in hand to gain the bonus.

But..don't you just need to hold it to cast the spell? Beyond that, why would you need to hold it?

[Belnia]

You wouldn't, but if you were holding it, you would have 617 as a native spell. This means it wouldn't be subject to spell burst, or spell-stripping in the rift. Someday someone will make a crazy magic heavy crossbow rogue, and I'll have a customer.

Or the ranged review will make crossbows not sucky.

Dang. $63 to fill up this weekend and i wasnt even on the E. =(

[Rocktar]

What level of instrument is the spectral instrument and is it basically a no weight instrument for your bard with cool effects? I haven't paid much attention to such, so kinda curious about it.

Rocktar

[Belnia]

Normal quality. Couldn't get the master instrument bump up at CCF on it.

[Nevie]

I'll take the lot. Do you take credit? IOU? Souls?

[Belnia]

Bump. Moar stuff added.
