To be fair, you were typing quite sternly. I could hear the fingertips pounding on your keys from here.

Arbre

Something that makes your corpses worth more essence to your god. Could be tiered, like +50% / +100% / +150%.

ap info 433
Artifact #433
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Item: an ampoule of blessed oil
Power: refill_blessedoil

This artifact power cannot be added to other items.

Description:
Refills each Howling with a single sip of blessed oil. Blessed oil increases essence value of
offerings 10x, see ANOINT command.

Tiur

Also, the Divine-specific oils are 100x.

@Tiur Someone mentioned this on Discord or something but would it be possible to get some sort of way to combine custom certs to upgrade them to another level.E ven if there was just a way to spend 2 to change the item types or for staff customs or whatever. I think a lot of people are just sitting on piles of them because the base level ones are basically only good for redescribing artifacts or don't feel worthwhile to redescribe decaying items. (I forget if you can use certs for runes of customization or animals but that would be sweet if u can't)

Leana

I'm pretty sure animals are 50cr each, for minipets and sentinel ones. I'd also like this option, but I would use it on my artifact bonedagger that doesn't exist!

Mordion

Carnifex Artifact idea stolen from the corpse_store artifact power.

AP: heart_store a canopic jar
- Allows the Carnifex to store up to three hearts within the jar, which can be retrieved
later at any time for Cruelty.

Alathesia

@Mordion this could be used for both Indorani and Carnifex. Carnifex use them for cruelty and Indorani for essence.

Didn't know that but even better! 

Phoenecia

Since anointing oils can actually be used in Perfumery now, any chance for an oil expansion artifact to boost the number of essential oils you can design from 20 like the Fumology blend expansion artifact? I'm almost at the limit of the number of oils I can design. >_>

So, I've known a ton of people who RP being magically/psychically/etc. connected to others - usually through familial bonds or special RP rituals they come up with - that allow/cause them to share their thoughts/feelings with each other from a distance. Usually I see people achieving this with tells and something like (for example)

(from Aryanne): TELL ZAILA *through your bond, you sense Aryanne's fear striking through your gut*


Could we have an artifact of some sort that we could achieve something like this through legitimately? Basically what I'm suggesting is something that allows players/characters to voluntarily attune to each other to express and receive thoughts/feelings/sensations/etc. from a distance without having to work around mechanics with tells. I know this concept pretty much already exists as a cool order-item-perk, so it seems like it wouldn't be a huge hurtle to create: the question is mostly if the admin are willing to make this available for anyone who wants to spend money on it!

I believe the order item version of this gives (gave? It's been awhile, I'm assuming it still exists!) you a maximum number of people you can attune to, the attuning must be mutually agreed to and is easily broken by UNALLYing so that a player can't get harassed by unwanted thoughts and feelings, and only works one way. Which is to say only the person with the item can share with those they attune to. So if you want the connection to go both ways, both people would need the item.

I've always thought the idea of this in RP was a cool one, even though I haven't ever done it myself, but I think it'd be great to give people a chance to sort of legitimize their RP with cool mechanics and give me the chance to join in on the fun!

Mariena

Could we have a screen door artifact, to stop mobs specifically from wandering into homes? IS that even possible? If I'm doing a fortune telling, and Dirga comes in slashing her blade or something, it gets weird.

I think you mean -awesome-.

Rhyot

Can we get a way to have a permanent starburst tattoo??? You can get every other tattoo as permanent except for book and starburst.

Axius

There are a number of artefacts that behave as a permanent starburst, I thought? Wasn't there this stardust phial or something that you basically use somehow and it gives you a starburst effect? Or am I an idiot who's thinking Achaea?

Toz

That's Achaea, yes.

Mjoll

Kennel expand - Can have 30 more dogs in your personal kennels (Since we're going to be stuck behind an RNG time-wall to be effective at combat)

Soul caller - passively regens souls stored in your soulstone at a decent pace (1000 and hour wouldn't be broken, I don't think)

Don't you mean... Soul CALIBER?

A life-sized body pillow. Drop it in a room with you to add 1 to farsee. Never sleep alone again!

I'm not sure if people are still still actually suggesting arties, and I totally didn't read through to see if someone already came up with this, but, I submit:

False_Friend
An artifact you can drop in a room and it will artificially create an additional person if someone FARSEEs upon anyone in your room. Sorta the aetolian equivalent of putting a blow up doll in the passenger seat to use the HOV lane.
Could give it restrictions like: Can only be used twice per howling, lasts 4 hours - possibly resets when picked up or moving rooms.
*just realized I typoed HOV as HOA. That explains why no one got that joke (lets pretend that's why)

I knew I had seen this idea somewhere before here! Zaila's was from some time in 2017 - maybe with renewed interest they might consider it more.

I also suggested the opposite, something to hide you from the farsee count.

As long as it doesn't also make people frighten easily.

Tybereus

I would have to say a fishing lure as a artifact like how we used to have vermin bait but the lure draws more fish to you.
