Items and Prizes

Items
1. Characters can have a maximum of 8 items on the site. You can get items by having them be crafted for you by another character, participating in an item drop (appears randomly on the site), by using a prize, or as a random surprise. In order to get a surprise item, it must be on your WISHLIST.

2. Items can be traded among players and characters, and they can be challenged for and stolen.

3. Items can be anything you can imagine and are categorized in three different sizes:
  • a. Small items are items which can easily fit in the palm of a human hand or are roughly the size of your first such as beads, necklaces, etc.
  • b. Medium items can be compared to the size of half of your horse. For example, four leg wraps, a headband, etc.
  • c. Large items are items which cover the entirety of your horse, like armor. Depending on the bulk of the armor, the admin may ask you to engage in an additional quest or provide an additional prize to account for the size.

4. In order for an item to be utilized, the item must be added to your characters records. Please post in the CHARACTER RECORD’S thread to redeem prizes or link a thread in which you got an item.

5. A special type of item is a “magical” or “custom item”. They can be any size and can have up to two special, magical functions. The magical function is not to perform as an additional magic slot, but should be inherent to the item itself. Magical items can eventually wear down or lose their power. All of these require administrator permission. Examples of acceptable and unacceptable magical items are as follows:
  • a. Yes! Expanding and contracting armor
  • b. Yes! Storing devices such as bottomless bags, sound bite recorders, or preserving boxes
  • c. Yes! Tiaras or trinkets that will never fall off
  • d. Yes! Musical instruments that play themselves
  • e. No! Items that entrance, bewitch or ensnare another character
  • f. No! Items that will give the user an extra, magical ability like fire breathing
