in Paid Events: Adventures, Quests, and SimuCoins ~ Duskruin Arena

In the evening of Wednesday, February 23, 2022, a cart will be placed in HESS for the following Property Items:

1. Put out the Teleportation Key option
2. Offer the ability to turn one free garden/plant item into the new Foraged item (explain what it is)
3. Portal Attunement

There will be a limit of 1 or each item per account that owns a property for this run. If your account does not own a property, then the bloodscrip will be refunded to the purchaser at the time when the redemption would have taken place. (ie: Don’t buy if you don’t own a private property.)


Property Item Description


Teleportation Key
This allows your key to teleport you to the entrance of your home. It is one-way travel.

New Foraged Item Prop
Private Properties have plenty of flowers, plants, trees, and other organic offerings built on very basic systems. This new Foraged Item Prop allows for further customization of the “plant” on your property and will create “forage” bases that can work with other systems. Some examples are:

If you have a tree on your property, this new system can expand it by:
Giving it a look, adding a foraged fruit, adding up to five foraged flowers, adding a foraged leaf, adding foraged bark, and providing a custom scent for the tree.

If you have a bush or vine on your property, this new system can expand it by:
Giving it a look, adding a foraged fruit, adding up to five foraged flowers, adding a foraged leaf, and providing a custom scent for the bush.

If you have a flower, this system can expand it by:
Giving it a look, a foraged flower, adding a foraged leaf, and providing a custom scent for the flower.

On top of the above, the new system will also denote the following:

Height of foraged item:
Trees provide reaching above head messaging for getting everything but bark.
Shrubs provide waist-level messaging for getting items.
Ground-cover plants provide bending messaging.

Position of the person interacting with foraged item:
All interactions with the item will note if you are standing, sitting, kneeling, or laying down.

Racial differences:
If you are a Halfling and you are not wearing tall shoes, then you may have difficulty reaching things on a tree.
If you are a giantman, your positioning is ignored in favor of better posture and reach.

Lastly, this prop provides the following verbs:

Gaze: Provides a list of harvest-able items
Attend: Randomly lets you toy with one of the foraged items
Pinch: (only if the leaf is an option) lets you pull a leaf off.
Pull: (only if the fruit is an option) lets you pull a piece of fruit off.
Pluck: (only if flowers are present) lets you pluck a flower free (randomizes if more than one flower is available).
Scratch: (only if the bark is present) lets you remove a bit of bark.
Smell: (only if the smell is added) lets you get a customized scent for the plant.

Portal Attunement
This allows you to enter your Private Property provided you are either wearing or holding your key.
It will simulate you unlocking and opening the door.
Additionally, it will let you lock your property behind you even if you have entertained and they logged off. The portal will provide exiting from the property to those people that don’t’ have keys, but will deny them re-entry.


Property Item Rules


Teleportation Key
1 key only

Foraged Item Prop
1. All items will need to be cleared and passed through QC.
2. Rooms will not be repainted to accommodate new plants.
3. If your room description mentions a plant but it is not a tangible object, then one can be added.
4. If there is an item in your property that mentions a plant of some kind, then we can update the item to handle the new foraged item prop.
5. You may add a foraged item prop that does not get embedded into the room description
*a plant is defined as a tree, a flower, a bush, a vine, a shrub, or any other kind of natural growth.
**Rift Plants are denied. All other plants will be screened accordingly.
*Plants can be anything found in the real world and 98% of Elanthian plants are allowed.

Portal Attunement
Entrance portal only
*Some portals will not qualify by nature of how they function. If this happens to your portal, then we will 100% refund you.
