Crowns!

As a new month rolls over, I'm pleased to bring you word of our
promotions for February:

- Daily credits! Get a bound credit each day just for logging in!
- Pandora just let it slip that She's planning on supplementing random
denizens around Sapience with a slew of artefacts! Denizens across the
land will have a chance to drop random artefacts that are yours to keep
for a few Achaean months. Being the crazy, chaotic Goddess she is, you
can expect these only on Wednesdays.
- You asked for it; you begged, pleaded, sent threats involving fluffy
bunnies and wood chippers, and we've listened. The Mayan Crown reward
sale is back!

How it works:
-------------
This is a tiered bonus sale with 5 tiers. The tiers are: 100, 300, 500,
1000, and 2000 credits. Whenever you hit one of these tiers during the
promotion, you will receive a certain number of Mayan crowns: 1, 2, 2,
5, and 10 respectively. This means that the total number of crowns
obtainable per account during this sale is 20. Once you have reached the
2000-credit tier on one character, further purchases on that character
will not
result in any more crowns.

Mayan crowns can be used to purchase special artefacts found at the Shop
of Wonders in Delos. The Shop of Wonders is located 2xNE then 5xN from
"On the Delosian Bridge".

What can I buy?
---------------
Alongside some of your returning favourites, we're pleased to announce a
slew of entirely new crown artefacts.

A bar of pumice soap - 2mc.
- This scented block will ensure that any odorous ailments are quickly
removed. Simply have the soap on your person when you SCRUB.

An Aeonic hourglass - 2mc.
- With this treasure in hand, STOP SAND will hide your age and date of
birth from your HONOURS and START SAND will let it show.

A driftwood stationery kit - 1mc.
- This finely crafted stationery kit will generate personalised letters
each day.

Veil of the Libertine - 2mc.
- We all make mistakes after a few too many darkbrews! Use this
fashionable item to hide any past transgressions to the sanctity of
marriage from your HONOURS. WEAR VEIL will hide your indiscretions from
the eyes of others.

A leather falconry jess - 4mc.
- This stylish thong of leather can be used to accessorise any glove or
gauntlet to accommodate your feathered friends. Included in this is
resetting and non-decay, and the jess is destroyed upon use. To use,
ATTACH TO your choice of handwear.

The badge of returning - 5mc.
- Attaching this to any collared companion or artefact pet will reduce
the reset time by 50%. (The item is destroyed upon use.)

A stone flowerpot - 5mc.
- A new twist on an old favourite, this flowerpot will grow a selection
of 10 beautiful (and different from the standard pot) flowers every
Achaean month! The best thing about this new pot is that it is
customisable! Want new flowers in it? Only one type of flower? Not a
problem! (Contact customisations@achaea.com for more information on
modifications.)

A sacrificial kris - 10mc.
- Wield this sacrificial blade and OFFER up any denizen corpse to your
favourite Divine when you are not in front of a shrine. You must ATTUNE
it in the presence of any Deity's shrines once per Achaean month.
(Can not be used to sanctify or defile)
