Syntax: TRINKETS <trinket###>.
Gives you a detailed rundown of the trinket features, powers, usage, syntax and longevity.
Syntax: ZOOM SHOPPING.
Stand on your home-city soil and type ZOOM SHOPPING to make a beeline directly for the closest Old Curiosity Shop from which you can purchase trinkets and peruse current special offers.
Trinkets, artifacts and complete items bought or services procured are applied to your character immediately on confirmation. Benefits come instantly. Items are in your inventory or at your side as soon as you confirm.
Custom unique and bespoke objects are the exception as these are created in consultation with one of our experienced writers - see HELP CUSTOM and HELP SAMPLE. Trinkets should be given close inspection - see HELP TRINKETS and remember all of them are detailed with their powers and special attributes when you type TRINKET <trinket####> e..g. TRINKET RING2210.
Syntax: MICRO.
Micropurchase services specifically for inventory filling and time saving provisions. See HELP MICRO for details.
Syntax: SERVICES.
Shows you the services available for your character. Each line depicting an item has the name of the service is listed in capitals left side, short description in the middle and right-side the price in US DOLLARS and CROWNS ($1 = #2 rate). Service availability and price depends on your character inventory and current conditions.
XPBOOST: boost your level to its highest point, i..e. the maximum you have attained in the past (delimited to Avalonian+30%)
POUCHUP: fill all pouches in your hands or worn to 250 each pocket - most popular and useful
POTIONFILL: fill all potions in your inventory to 220 sips per potion - great for fighters
SECURITY: fully safeguard your inventory with oval, snowflake, anvil and anchor runes (all 3 RL months protection)
FULLCHARGE: recharges your held/worn magical items to 1500 charges each - saves a lot of time
CHARMING: purchase a specified charm in a ring or item of your choice - equip the key charms and spells
BLOODBOOST: boosts your bloodless balance to its highest prior level - push arcana up fast
PSYCHOBOOST: increases your psycho-resonance to highest former level - chase the deep arcana
LUMENBOOST: boosts lumens in the arcana to maximum ever attained - cast your net most wide and far
Equipment services are based on how much has to be provided to fill or complete the service requirements, e..g. SECURITY protects all that's in your inventory and belongs to you and its price goes up the more items you need protecting. POTIONFILL the same based on how many sips needed to fill all the potions you hold, FULLCHARGE how many charges on artifacts to make sure all have at least 1000 uses,
Restoration services are based on your previous high-points so it is a convenience rather than an advancement, e..g. XPBOOST puts your experience level to highest ever attained and not beyond - same for the BLOODBOOST, PSYCHOBOOST and LUMENBOOST arcana restoratives.
[example: the POUCHUP service fills your herb pouches to the brim, it is not available if your pouches are all full or you have none, or when you have pouches to be filled its price will vary based on how many herbs and poisons it will require to achieve "full" on all inventory pouches. If you do not wish a pouch included in the service (and therefore the price) you need to stash it in a sack or backpack.]
