Anyone may learn the artisan trade skill. This craft generally involves the construction of furniture, though it does allow the creation of some smaller items that may be carried, such as pipes. Furniture usually involves a significant amount of commodities to craft, thus making this trade skill extremely expensive. However, furniture is much in demand by those with manses as well as guilds, cities and communes. At some point during the career of an artisan, the master artisan will so value one piece of furniture that he or she created that a special bond will be formed between them.

Prized

Syntax:
PRIZE <furniture>

PRIZE RETURN

Power: variable* (any) (to return)

Sometimes you build a piece of furniture that is so beautiful and special to your heart that you always wish to return to it. By claiming a piece of furniture as your prized possession, you will be able to return to it. This ability has a powerful range that extends up through the known planes (but not across aetherspace). There are some limitations to this power. It costs 10,000 gold to place your golden seal upon a piece of furniture to claim it as your prized possession and you may only ever have one prized piece. Note that prized furniture does not decay.

The power cost varies depending on what plane you are returning from:

  • Prime = 1 power
  • Ethereal = 3 power
  • Elemental = 3 power
  • Cosmic = 4 power
  • Astral = 5 power

(Any plane not listed above that you can return from is also 5 power.)
