[Duskruin] Energy Wings!

Behold, energy wings! I want to give a huge hats off and eternal thank you to GM Mestys for being the incredible coding talent behind this concept and for the masterful patience and skills to help make this item a reality. Thanks to GM’s Estild, Thandiwe and Tivvy for all of their approvals, help and guidance along the way.
I encourage you to visit Pinions and Pulse this month during Duskruin! You will find two sets of energy wings, Light and Dark! They come in the shape of a pin, can be activated to give you wings with lots of abilities and zest! Don’t just take my word for it, grind for bloodscrip and buy them. It may save you deeds!
The wing-shaped pin may be freely altered, but it must adhere to its energy setting. When worn, the pin will cause wings to emerge from its bearer’s back as a temporary unique feature line, or temporarily replace the wings features for Aelotoi. These features may be customized, but the wings will always be feathered, and should also reflect the energy setting of the pin.

You unfurl your luminous wings with gilt-hued specks of light, soft light spilling outward as the feathers stretch wide.
Your luminous wings emanate with an intense light, forcing nearby shadows to recoil and fade.
As you put on the wing-shaped pin, shadows spill outward as umbrous wings with shadowy whorled patterns coalesce behind you and lock into place.
You unleash your umbrous wings with shadowy whorled patterns, shadows exploding outward in a jagged surge.
Your umbrous wings bristle sharply, barbs lifting and quivering with hostile intent.
You furl your umbrous wings close, shadows pooling thickly around you.
Some gleaned Q/A:
GM Mestys:
The success formula for these is only based on your level and the tier of the item.
You can only wear one at a time. Cooldown for all the abilities are item-based and player-based, so you won’t benefit in that regard for having multiple.
Standard enhancive limits apply, yes.
All of the offensive abilities are SMR.
They don’t stack, regardless of the source
All the cooldowns kick in on activation.
GM Kenstrom
I fixed the language. Each Tier has 1 Offensive ability, 1 Defensive ability, and 2 zest verbs for rp/fluff.
It will have an attune option.
You see GameMaster Kenstrom.
He appears to be a Half-Elf from Faendryl.
He is tall. He appears to be full grown. He has sleepy blue-grey eyes and tanned skin. He has a shaven head of chestnut hair. He has a pair of luminous wings with gilt-hued specks of light.
