Special Auctions

Ever feel like you were born in the wrong gender, or wish that flowers
would grow in your footsteps wherever you travelled? Well, here's your
chance. A number of special auctions (that number is fourteen, to be
exact) have just opened. We're auctioning off a number of one-off unique
artefacts, many of which will never be available again, a one-time
gender change, a Package Pet, a Shield of Absorption, and more. Some of
these auctions are in credits; others are in gold.

These auctions end in a week's time, so place your bids. See HELP
AUCTIONS for how to bid, how to build escrow, and more details on
auctions in general. For GOLD auctions, you must have the gold at the
time you place your bid. For CREDIT auctions, you can use actual credits
(bound), or you can use escrow credits from artefacts you already own,
or a combination of both. If you are using escrow credits, please
thoroughly read the section on escrow credits in HELP AUCTIONS.

Bids can NOT be retracted. We will not change your bid for you, so be
very careful when you bid. If you win a credit auction, payment MUST be
made in full in timely fashion! Your bid is your guarantee of this. Take
care to note that BID INCREASE will increase your existing bid by the
amount you specify. It does not replace it. For example, if you bid 100
on an item, then you increase the bid by 150, that puts your new bid at
250, not 150.

--LIST OF WHAT'S UP FOR BID--

[CREDIT AUCTIONS]
o The Orb of Sllshya's Wrath. With this artefact, the owner may THROW
ORB to invoke a snowstorm in a room, like the Snowstorm ability of
Groves users.

o A hydra-skin campfire kit. Even those without the Woodlore skill may
build and stoke a campfire with this handy kit. While lit, the campfire
will increase the regeneration of willpower and endurance of all those
in the room.

o A living burlap seed pouch. This unique seed pouch generates flower
seeds which you can scatter across the land. once dropped, the seeds
sprout into gorgeous rooted flowers (i.e. they cannot be picked up) and
decay in an Achaean month or two's time.

o An arrow of Ethian. A meteor arrow that returns to you after it
reaches its target.

o A featureless wooden mask. This mask imitates the Chameleon tattoo,
but you can activate and deactive it at will by wearing or removing the
mask.

o Gavel of Etheric Revelation. POUND GAVEL in the room to reveal those
pesky phased serpents.

o A Vastarian flute. Play this flute to dispel noxious gases in the room
(belch, hellfumes, smokebomb).


[GOLD AUCTIONS]
o A Package Pet. A 900-credit value that you might get for a steal in
gold! See HELP PETS.

o A one-time gender change. This does NOT include a name change.

o A custom Mayaween costume. Includes custom reactions to being
worn/removed, as well as two additional custom reactions, subject to
approval.

o A Shield of Absorption. A 500-credit value. See HELP ARTEFACTS
DEFENSIVE for details.

o A roll of 5 Mayan crowns. See HELP CROWNS.

o A roll of 10 Mayan crowns.

Unless noted otherwise, all items are non-transferable and will only
function for the owner.

Penned by My hand on the 8th of Chronos, in the year 520 AF.
