[Ebon Gate 2026] Coming Soon… The Resinator
on 02 Oct 2026 at 5:36AM

on #forums/paid-events/ channel
So, the Resinator? What makes it so modular?
Well, I’m glad (you) I asked! Right now, it is limited in capability ONLY because I ran out of time, however I have PLANS for future releases.
Okay, well, what can it do NOW?
Well, the base Resinator box will allow you to take a foraged item (not herbs, though) and turn it into a gem using resin. The resulting gem will be organic, if that makes a difference to you all. But let’s start with a preview:
You pick up a cluster of jungle geranium blossoms.
>put bloss in my box
WARNING: All foraged items added to your box will be permanently destroyed. If you are certain you wish to continue, please CONFIRM by PUTting (or DROPping) your blossoms into your box again.
>put bloss in my box
You lift the lid of your resinator box and gingerly place the jungle geranium blossoms within it, taking care to lower your box’s lid back in place.
>l box
A clear glass lid caps the box, revealing a single jungle geranium blossom. On one side, connected to a small sluice and plug, is a dark glaes tube that sits less than half-full of resin. The opposite side features a small button beneath a blank display.
>push my box
Just as you are about to push the sluice plug on your resinator box, you stop to verify what you plan to make.
Please confirm you wish to create a jungle geranium blossom by PUSHing your resinator box again in the next 30 seconds.
>turn my box
You push a button on the side of your resinator box and select enameled.
(cont.)
>push my box
Just as you are about to push the sluice plug on your resinator box, you stop to verify what you plan to make.
Please confirm you wish to create an enameled jungle geranium blossom by PUSHing your resinator box again in the next 30 seconds.
>push my box
You push the sluice plug on the side of your resinator box, and slowly, resin begins to seep through the connected tube and over jungle geranium blossom. Following a subtle flash of light, you hear a pop from within, signaling that the curing process is complete.
You lift the lid, reach in, and withdraw an enameled jungle geranium blossom from within your box.
Wait a minute! Did that just get de-pluralized?
Yes… yes, it did. But that’s not all…
>get lemongrass
You pick up a stalk of fresh lemongrass.
>put lemon in my box
You lift the lid of your resinator box and gingerly place the fresh lemongrass within it, taking care to lower your box’s lid back in place.
>l box
A clear glass lid caps the box, revealing a single white-tipped feathergrass blade. On one side, connected to a small sluice and plug, is a dark glaes tube that sits less than half-full of resin. The opposite side features a small button beneath a display that reads white-tipped.
>push my box
You push the sluice plug on the side of your resinator box, and slowly, resin begins to seep through the connected tube and over white-tipped feathergrass blade. Following a subtle flash of light, you hear a pop from within, signaling that the curing process is complete.
You lift the lid, reach in, and withdraw an amber-encased white-tipped feathergrass blade from within your box.
But that’s a LONG on a GEM item?!
Yes… yes, it is. So at its base, you can manipulate the foraged items as needed.
Why did it become a blade, though?
Because grass is typically a blade (so basically, some foraged items will see their noun switch up based on what makes sense for a singular noun… just be aware that ear of corn will stay ear of corn because corn ear feels weird).
So I can make gems with it? Long-alter gems?
Yep! Some things will only work with the base 15/15/15, however there are others that will handle long descriptions when used.
Okay, but what else?
Welp, it’s better I show you…
>get mold
You pick up a shoe-marked oiled soapstone mold.
>nudge my mold
You carefully nudge your oiled soapstone mold into a small slot on the front of your box.
>l my box
A clear glass lid caps the box, revealing an empty interior. On one side, connected to a small sluice and plug, is a dark glaes tube that sits less than half-full of resin. The opposite side features a small button beneath a blank display. A curved tab etched with the words “Cobbling Settings” sticks out in the front, indicating a mold has been inserted into the box.
>get clustervine
You pick up a star-leafed sky blue clustervine.
>put cluster in my box
You lift the lid of your resinator box and gingerly place the sky blue clustervine within it, taking care to lower your box’s lid back in place.
>l box
A clear glass lid caps the box, revealing a single clustered vermilion fire moss. On one side, connected to a small sluice and plug, is a dark glaes tube that sits less than half-full of resin. The opposite side features a small button beneath a display that reads clustered. A curved tab etched with the words “Cobbling Settings” sticks out in the front, indicating a mold has been inserted into the box.
>push my box
Just as you are about to push the sluice plug on your resinator box, you stop to verify what you plan to make.
Please confirm you wish to create a set of resin-encased sky blue clustervines by PUSHing your resinator box again in the next 30 seconds.
>push my box
You push the sluice plug on the side of your resinator box, and slowly, resin begins to seep through the connected tube and over star-leafed sky blue clustervine. Following a subtle flash of light, you hear a pop from within, signaling that the curing process is complete.
You lift the lid, reach in, and withdraw a set of resin-encased sky blue clustervines from within your box.
>l my cluster
The clustervines, which appear to be made from resin-encased sky blue clustervines, could be used when cobbling to make footwear that is:
studded with resin-encased sky blue clustervines resin-encased sky blue clustervine-studded
inset with resin-encased sky blue clustervines resin-encased sky blue clustervine-inset
buttoned with resin-encased sky blue clustervines resin-encased sky blue clustervine-buttoned
beaded with resin-encased sky blue clustervines resin-encased sky blue clustervine-beaded
But why didn’t it keep the original article in the settings like it did with the gem?
… because do you see how long it is already? You want your whole shoe to just be a setting? However, if you want to keep the original article instead of replacing it, you can (except for when considering words like “cluster”, “stalk”, etc).
Okay, but what about the resin?
Good question! Resin can be added to your Resinator to increase charges.
How do we get the resin?
Another good question! For now, it will be for sale at Resin and Releaf, but I’m hoping to have an announcement regarding [redacted]
soon! Once [redacted]
is available, I will let you know. It will not be available for the PERM-ifier because of [redacted]
.
Is the resin edible?
Why would any ask that… but technically, yes. Technically, you can drink the resin. However, technically it is TOXIC and you WILL die if you drink it. No unpoison, you will die. Period. Don’t drink the resin…. but if you do, please share with the class what you learned.
Is there anything else I should know?
Right now? No. but please do keep the ideas coming. I want to make this as modular as possible, and if there is something you think could benefit from resin casting, I’m all ears. (I already have some things in mind, and Vanah has feature-creeped me on some things. What it is right now was the result of initial feature creep which made me semi-start over to rewrite the script).
More molds? How will we store them?
Can I alter my resinator box to actually be a “resinator box”?
No, absolutely not.
I think I got it all! If you have any questions that were not already covered, please feel free to ask!

[Ebon Gate] Twisted Gloves

on #forus/paid-events channel
No shock here. Lightning Edition, Vacuum Edition, Fire Edition, and Frost Edition versions of Twisted Gloves are going to be available this Ebon Gate. The perfect compliment to Twisted Kicks released last year.
Refreshed Shop: Sparked Interest (Lightning edition)
New Shop: Fingers Crossed (Vacuum, Fire, and Frost editions)
What might not have been expected, however, is Script Adding is being made available this year for these editions at this Ebon Gate, in addition to Script Adding for Twisted Kicks. No need to wait a year! These “certificates” will be for handwear and footwear that already have Lightning, Vacuum, Fire, or Cold weapon ability flares. As it is with other Twisted armament scripts, you must purchase the correct Script Adding item for the associated flare and item type.

From Aether and Bloom Apothecary, a line of luxury preparations for use in your portable and permanently affixed tubs.
>sprinkle jar in tub
Holding your arm over a creamy pink marble tub, you gently sprinkle the contents of your glass jar into the water. The scented soap flakes dissolve into the water, forming a thick lather of pale bubbles that drift lazily across the surface. You detect the faint scent of roses.
>
A large, iridescent soap bubble floats lazily in the air above a creamy pink marble tub and then POPS! 🛀
>
>smell tub
You sniff delicately at your pink marble tub and detect the faint scent of roses in the water.
But that’s not all! These can products can be used on yourself to provide a scent and temporary adjustment to your features.
>rub jar
You deposit a small amount of soap from your glass jar into your palm and then rub your hands together. You apply the soap generously to your face, the rich lather working to remove the impurities from the surface of the skin.
Lingering on your skin is the faint scent of roses.
>look Vaella
You see Vaella.
She appears to be a Human.
She is tall. She appears to be very young. She has long-lashed pale blue eyes and fair skin. She has long, touseled smoke-hued hair gathered over one shoulder and woven with dried flowers. She has a heart-shaped face, a small nose and full, blush-tinted lips. A magnificent beard of soap bubbles clings to her face.
Wait! There’s still more! Thanks to GM @Vanah , you’ll be able to choose from a plethora of scents for your spa products OR pour in your own favorite perfume.
PS. Someone please tell Katara so she can stop bugging the tubs. 💕
PPS. Vaella will be working at merchant week to provide custom sit messaging for folding chairs AND tubs. Don’t miss out.

Debuting at Ebon Gate in 2026 is the Cheval Mirror, a room decoration with Stay-Put qualities designed to be PLACEd out in a room for four hours, or in a stall, loft, or private property until its place is cleared. The mirror can hang on a wall, be placed on the floor as a freestanding mirror, or nudged onto a table like a vanity mirror.
You could:
PEER into the cheval mirror to see your own reflection.
CLEAN or TILT the cheval mirror.
ATTEND, GAZE, FLIRT, KISS, POSE, SPIN in the mirror.
ATTEND can further be targeted at a worn item, BODY, EYES, FACE, HAIR, LIPS, or TEETH.
GAZE will work with any of the styles in HELP GAZE.
POSE can be targeted at a held or worn item.
ATTEND messaging will change depending on what makeup and skincare you are wearing.
You can find these cheval mirrors in the Ebon Gate Shop Rub-a-Dub-Dub.
>attend mirror
You gaze at your reflection in the cheval mirror and make minor adjustments to your short, razor-cut moonlit silver hair and the lay of your clothing.
>attend mirror at body
You gaze at your reflection in the cheval mirror and turn sideways to examine your physique.
>attend mirror at lips
You gaze at your reflection in the cheval mirror and test out your brightest smile.>wear my balm
You gently uncap the wand of your scarlet-sheened balm, then carefully begin to apply your makeup, filling in your lips with a steady hand. Perfection.
>attend mirror at lips
You gaze at your reflection in the cheval mirror and check that the gold-flecked deep dark scarlet-sheened color on your lips hasn’t faded.
>kiss mirror
You press your lips to the surface of the cheval mirror, leaving a gold-flecked deep dark scarlet-sheened imprint.
>look mirror
A single gold-flecked deep dark scarlet-sheened lip print mars the mirrored surface.
ATTEND should pick up most spa day products — dabber hair and beard pomade, nail polish, makeup, shaving kit, henna, face paint, the three types of makeup…redacted
with stay-put, you can only NUDGE onto items that are permanently imbedded in the room description.
But you could still PUT the mirror on top and use it.
>put mirr on shelf
You put a cheval mirror on a supply shelf.
>tilt mirr
You loosen the thumb-screws on the cheval mirror and tilt the reflective glass toward you.
