Subj: First EG Teaser of 2018
Hello!
This year for EG, there will be Custom Flare Messaging options. This will work for about a dozen of the flares and there will be a few flavors. The flavor that I can show you today is as follows:
Fire – Bright red and ethereal, a flame-wreathed dragon eel bursts from your vultite falchion and explodes into a bog troll!
Cold – Indigo and ethereal, an icicle-wreathed dragon eel bursts from your vultite falchion and explodes into a bog troll!
Electricity – Silvery grey and ethereal, an electricity-wreathed dragon eel bursts from your vultite falchion and explodes into a bog troll!
And 7 more flare types.
I hope you enjoy!

This is amazing and awesome and spectacular and also I have like half a dozen questions that I threw at you on Discord and am super excited to hear answers to. 😀
It never ceases to amaze me the new ways staff comes up with to allow character customization. Love it!

I think I compiled all the answers here goes:
Runestaves? Yes, if they already possess one of the 10 flare types.
Bless? Not at this time.
Work with Scripts? Yes, so long as they don’t have a customized flare message already.
What Flares? For Ebon Gate this year it is fire, cold, electricity, acid, vacuum, plasma, steam, unbalance, grapple, and impact.
Any weapon? Any weapon that already has a flare in it that is also one of the flare-types listed above.
I hope I got all of them. If not, please post them here and I will answer them.

>Bless? Not at this time.
It would be cool if holy water flares were dark/light/neutral depending on the blessing cleric’s alignment

Will this be a service offered by a merchant or found in games that we redeem for these premade ones?
Does this count as a script on the weapon or does it just override the messaging?

Can weapons with Greater Flares get customized, too!?
