The final shop in Elenesse Atelier is called Little Ticker. This shop will offer a mechanism of the same name. While the gnomic tinkerer was very creative with the gears and gadgets, she was not terribly clever with the names.

Her device, however, is rather unique. It has no tiers and can be customized completely by you. That’s right! Though the base item may need the assistance of a merchant to have its look changed, what it produces is 100% customizable by the average Joe. Let us explain.

The device creates tickets.

You can design the LOOK of these tickets by FEEDing the device a Life Aquatic Sea Critter, a Bugs on Parade Insect, or a Flower Press Flower.
You can change the BASE description of the ticket and the READ by FEEDing the device a Papermaker ticket that is fashioned from writing paper.
Once you do that, you can GAZE at your device to see the following information:

As you gaze at the contraption, you are able to look through one of the glass panes to see the ticket inside. It provides you with the following information:
Base Ticket: a print-covered scarlet red ticket
Long Description of Ticket: a print-covered scarlet red ticket sponsored by “The Shives Society”
Show Description of Ticket: A flourish of delicately sketched twigs decorates each corner of the scarlet red ticket, a gold-swept green Lumnea beetle balancing precariously on one yew twig.
Ticket Read: This raffle ticket is for testing purposes only. Hang tight.
Ticket Creator is: Thandiwe
The Raffle Sponsor is: The Shives Society
You have conducted exactly 0 raffle(s) with the spider contraption.

Oh, did I forgot tell mention that it will run a raffle for you?

POINT the device at someone and it will add their name to the device and print them a ticket with a unique # on it. You can point your device at 99 individuals before it won’t accept anymore.

At any point, both before and after, your raffle is drawn, you can READ the device to get a full list of those that are participating.

Once you are ready, you can PUSH the button on the device, and it will randomly select one of the stored names. It will announce it to the room you are in, but you will be responsible for tracking down the owner and delivering their raffle item.

Want to start a new raffle? No sweat, CLEAN the device.

Want to name a different sponsor? No sweat, WHISPER a new SPONSOR to the device.

Want to change the name of the raffle creator? No sweat, WHISPER a new CREATOR to the device.
