"Ah, true, that certainly should come in handy."  Rose had to agree, when Aria brought up the fact that the sextant could be put to their own use until this whole mess was sorted out.  "And yes, no doubt it will take some time to find a buyer for the ship.  Might as well make use of it until then, at the very least."<br/><br/>For her own part, the shifter had little trouble handing over nearly all the arcane items she owned, as well as making a request for a pair of gloves to be added into the mix.  Something to make her more dextrous, something to give her greater actions in combat, and then a special little charm to be added to each of the items that she owned, a type of charm that had caught her eye pretty much since she first walked into the store.  That sun, setting or rising on an endless horizon...  Really, it was pretty much the perfect little magic item for her, something that summed her up exactly.  It would be a nice little signature to have, and maybe even a lucky charm, if some of the stories she'd heard about the Quarter of the Great Wheel were true.<br/><br/>"...I'm afraid that the thought hadn't occurred to me to use it to show off the ship."  The warrior admitted, as her companion congratulated her.  "I just saw a bunch of booze and snacks and thought, 'Hey, I could use this to throw a really great party!'.  I suppose it will help enhance the ship's reputation a little, though.  No doubt we'll get more buyers if they heard that it was last used to host a major celebration, rather than hearing tales about a pirate using it to plunder things from people.  Ah, and I don't think I'd mind getting a meal.  This collar is like one of those magic rings that keeps you from needing to eat, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy it!  Getting an outfit for the party afterwards might be a good idea, as well, though I think I might need your help picking something out for myself.  I'm so used to wearing clothes like these that my fashion sense has dulled a little over the years."<br/><br/>Admittedly, it didn't help, either, that she'd first been raised as a boy...  But that was neither here nor there.<br/><br/><br/><br/>So no chain-gating in Solars, then?  Darn. :P<br/><br/>Hmm.  That seems expensive enough that I think Rose would settle for her Hat of Anonymity for now, and save up her money for the next few bits of treasure they bring in.  Admittedly, she'll probably also toss a Chronocharm of the Horizon Walker onto each item in each body slot that she's got, if that's allowed, aside from her Collar of Sustenance.  That should be at least 8 charges, which should be more than enough for her needs. ^^;<br/><br/>After that, she should definitely have at least 3,000 gold leftover to give to the Church, and probably several thousand more besides that for other uses.<br/><br/>And yeah, I'm a fan of the comic, myself. ;D I'm all caught up on it, though I will admit that there was a point where I had fallen behind for a bit.  Going on an archive-binge can be quite the fun experience, though, so if you ever find yourself with some free time...<br/><br/><strong>Edit:</strong>><; Wait, I think I might have misunderstood the totals on those magic items you gave me...  So never mind on the keeping the Hat of Anonymity, just make the 1/day item of Mind Blank a Head-slot item and combine it with that particular Chronocharm of the Horizon Walker.  And after that, I'm probably going to have to think about some other things, as well...<br/><br/><strong>Edit2:</strong>Although, it may pay to make the new Hat a continuous or use-activated item of Mind Blank, given the possibility of dispelling.  Being able to just re-cast the spell from the item should definitely come in handy at some point.<br/><br/><strong>Edit3:</strong>Hmm.  And on a third look, it seems like I had it right originally, so...  Ignore the above two edits, I guess?<br/><br/>I really shouldn't do math while sleepy. >>;
