Item 5
Name of Item: Dathan's Puzzle
Type of Item: Jewelry (Pendant)
Long ago, when Rayna was still young, her unicorn family was killed by hunters. Rescued by a dragon, named Dathan, she was taught much by the wise one. This puzzle was placed to her.

The 4 directions each having a point. The 4 elements being the second square... shown by the spaces (air), the metal (earth), the fire to forge them and water to cool them. For eternity, she found a piece of amber, with a small flying insect caught in it, preserving it forever. It pleased the dragon.. and he said she had learned his lessons well... They parted ways as best of friends. She kept the pendant ever since.

Item 6
Name of Item: Queen's Birthday Pearls
Type of Item: Jewelry (necklace)
A strand of black pearls that once belonged to the goddess Leucothea, it was given to Queen Majella as a birthday gift many years ago. The goddess rose from the seas at the base of the white cliffs of Oshenna and placed the strand around Majella's neck herself, then kissed her cheeks. They are exquisite and perfect, harvested and crafted by mermen for Leucothea herself, older than Majella's historians can determine. Black pearl producing oysters are rare themselves anyway, so it is a gift of the sea, only the wealthiest are usually seen wearing due to the costly nature; they are truly cherished.
Sold by: Queen Majella Valindyth of Oshenna (oshennapride)
Original Owner: The sea goddess Leucothea
Starting Bid: 500gp [Majella has asked that entire proceeds go to charity]
Item 7
Name of Item: Disorder
Type of Item: Enchanted Amulet
Only one of chaotic alignment can wear Disorder, it is simply a protection against law and order, yet the story behind it is what makes it most interesting. It never fails, so legend states, that all who have owned this amulet and worn it for any length of time, tend to have things begin to be chaotic around them. Walking beside a stack of perfectly ordered papers, they are interestingly found to be in the wrong order. One may think they are pouring red wine from a bottle, and white wine has poured from it. Snow has fallen from the sky one afternoon in mid-summer upon the wearer of this charm. Those usually gentle and kind, suddenly wish to brawl for no reason. They are not only chaotic, but they bring chaos of all sorts wherever they go.

Type of Item: Jewelry (Necklace)
My mother Jaellyssa Veryandil Ve'linde has graciously donated this beautiful necklace that she was given as a child by her grandmother, the Queen of Elvundel, for the first Winter Solstice that she remembers celebrating. It holds no special enchantments, but it is several hundred years old and exquisitely elven-crafted. In moon-light, the diamond in the center luminesces beautifully. It is strung on a black velvet choker. The Veryandil family was thrown out of power during a war that my family fought in years ago, and there are very few of my family (Ve'linde or Veryandil) left, though Elvundel still exists it is now ruled by another family.

This beautiful crown once graced the head of Princess Sarentina of Sionet, the empire that occupied most of the land of the republic in ancient times. Many of the relics that exist in UV of Sionet reside in Emmarie's relic collection, though because of the curses upon the Immortal Hills, most of the treasures remain untouched, so Sionet treasures are extremely rare.

Original Owner: same
Starting Bid: 100gp [All proceeds will go to charity]
Item 12
Name of Item: Blessings of the Kathirat
Type of Item: Enchanted Amulet
The Kathirat gathered together around a block of marble, each one taking a turn in carving it as they chanted. Each of the Seven Wise Ancients as they were often called, each year, would make a charm in the likeness of woman and place it at one of Chayim 'Elat's temples in the lands, or within the crook of a tree to be found by a druid perhaps. They were small, barely the size of a woman's thumb, and delicate. Broken Kathirat charms did not work anymore. Only a handful were known to be in existence anymore, and if the Kathirat still made them, the priestesses were keeping their lips tight about their exact locations. So it was very odd when the druidess Bryllwen found one of the little marble charms tucked into the crook of a tree, nearly iced over, within her moon garden. She attached a silken cord to it, but as her powers have increased, she no longer needs the use of the Kathirat charm to give fertility to the citizens as she is gifted in giving it herself. Wearing of the charm assures fertility, often healers will "loan" it out to people to use, and then return to allow others to use. Some parchments concerning the charm state that if worn backwards, one is assured a male child, but Bryllwen has never asked those who used the charm if they tried that.
Sold by: Bryllwen Ve'linde En'Katra (bryllwenvelinde)
Original Owner: unknown
Starting Bid: No set starting price. [All proceeds will go to charity]
Item 13
Name of Item: Grail of Guilt
Type of Item: Enchanted Item
A relic of times past, no one knows how it came to exist or who made it, only that it was found in a dragon's treasure trove on an adventure and brought to rest in the relic room at the Paladium where Emmarie has guarded it for some time and researched it as best as she could. It seems it has an odd ability, where one may fill it with any liquid and offer it to another to drink. If the person that drinks out of the cup holds anything within them that is causing them to feel guilty towards the one that offered them the cup; if they have done them wrong in any way, lied to them, or is hiding something from them; they immediately begin to confess to that person everything after drinking from the cup.

Original Owner: Princess Sarentina of the Empire of Sionet
Starting Bid: 500gp [All proceeds will go to charity]
Item 14
Name of Item: Men's Sapphire Ring
Type of Item: Jewelry (ring)
This ring once belonged to former King of Oshenna, Xavier Eskendale, Majella's first husband and father of Princess Aryn Eskendale Dre'Sedn and Prince Fallon. It is considered a part of the crown jewels of Oshenna. Platinum band, inset with a sapphire mined from the mountains of Terah in Oshenna. When one looks into the sapphire, it is enchanted in such a way that you see the rolling blue waves of the oceans outside of the Oshenna Palace along with the palace sitting atop the high cliff wall.
Sold by: Queen Majella Bevin Valindyth (oshennapride)
Original Owner: Same
Starting Bid: 50gp [Majella has asked that entire proceeds go to charity]
Item 15
Name of Item: Black Rook Estate Carriage
Type of Item: phayton carriage
This is the first carriage that I ever bought when I immigrated to Ravenscrest and began my estate of Black Rook. It's elegant, and a trustworthy carriage fit for a ride into town or to a fancy ball. Well maintained, with a green velvet interior, it would suit a couple or single quite well and would be a wonderful gift for a young couple starting out in the world.

Starting Bid: 500gp
Item 16
Name of Item: Reindeer Fur
Type of Item: fur
I recently purchased a very old castle in the Hyder Mountains of Ravenscrest, which is a portion of the North Mountain Range. There are so many interesting relics and antiques within the castle. One of the many furs that was found, was this reindeer fur hung across the very old wooden throne in the main hall. One can only wonder if it once belonged to a King and if this was one of the castles of the land when it was called Sionet. Perhaps I will find out with further study.

Starting Bid: 10gp
Item 17
Name of Item: Dragon's Head Citole
Type of Item: Instrument
Danlen was one of the famous bards in Republic history, the type that refused to play in castles and noble homes, instead choosing to play in city streets, town squares, village inns and taverns and on the docks for the sailors. It's even recorded that he took several voyages around the Republic paying for his trip by entertaining the crew of the various ships he'd sail on. During one of the trips, the ship sunk and he was shipwrecked on one of the small tropical islands in the Bitter Sea for about a year, though he spent that time composing many songs and carving instruments out of the native wood of the island. This citole was one of the instruments he made during that time. The strings have since been replaced, but the body and intricate carving was all done by the loving hand of Danlen with the small knife he had on his person when he was shipwrecked on that island. The neck is carved to represent a dragon in detail, and as he had nothing else to do but fine tune it, the sound quality is absolutely amazing.
Sold by: The Paladium Relic Collection c/o Emmarie Kuldair (exaltedemerald)
Original Owner: Danlen the Bard
Starting Bid: 500gp
Item 18
Name of Item: Raider Seax
Type of Item: Weapon (knife)
Spoils of the war... this seax knife was taken from the body of a raider to the shores of the land in ancient times, and kept as a memento by the warrior. It was found in excellent shape in the spoils of a red dragon, along with the bones of the warrior that kept it for so long. The pommel and guard are brass, and the wood grip is studded with brass tacks, for a very secure and comfortable grip. Emmarie restored the wood through use of chronomancy, repairing the damage of time. Includes a new leather sheath, riveted and laced, that was made to protect the knife as the old sheath had rotted. Two slots are provided for thongs to tie to the waist belt. The seax was a popular single-edged knife though the profile of the seax varied a great deal. This is a beautiful and very efficient knife. It is a general purpose knife, for camp work to cutting work, on shipboard, and for fighting if it so happened that a sword or axe was not available.
Sold by: The Paladium Relic Collection c/o Emmarie Kuldair (exaltedemerald)

Type of Item: Jewelry (necklace)
Another item from Sionet that is in the collection in the Republic's relic room, worn by several of the Empresses of Sionet, the empire that existed on these lands long before the Republic claimed it.

Item 21
Name of Item: Circle of Warmth
Type of Item: Enchanted Cloak Clasp
Used on a cloak, once clasped, it is enchanted to bring warmth as though standing in front of a toasty fire or cuddled in a warm blanket even if you are in the midst of an icy storm. The clasp itself remains cold to the touch, but the cloth of one's cloak is warm and can be used to warm others as long as the clasp on it remains clasped. This was created and enchanted by Bryllwen, though she is not affected by the cold, her land itself is cold and dark and she made several of these so that her visitors were comfortable in her lands especially in winter when it was bitterly cold.

Item 22
Name of Item: Cruul's Arm Harness
Type of Item: Armor
The warriors of Cruul were easily identified in the heyday of the worship of this chaotic evil god of destruction and pain. Cruul especially enjoyed the killing and torture of children, on a recent journey into an ancient Cruul temple, many children's skulls and skeletons were found along with various other gruesome implements of war and torture. Though this item is not enchanted, anyone of any alignment may wear it, those familiar with Cruul and what it stands for may still associate it with Cruul and his vile and vicious ways so the more evil aligned may be more inclined to purchase it.

Item 28

Item 29
Name of Item: Blade of Embitterment
Type of Item: Enchanted Sword
This well crafted and beautiful sword has unknown origins, though legend surrounds it and drawings of a very similar sword have been found in tomes and parchments from ancient times. It was found in the armory of a Quirilian King at the beginning of the first wars in those lands, and used during many of the first battles, the King did not lead his army to victory nor did the other side have victory, yet many on both sides were slaughtered and a deep bitterness began to grow on both sides. Several weeks after the battles had subsided for a time, the sword disappeared completely. Years later, in another part of the Republic, a sword that certainly looked very similar showed up in a shop and was sold to a rogue by the name of Davenport, who proceeded to wreak havoc upon many parts of our land and other lands with the sword. Every village he and his group swept through, was left in turmoil and bitterness, people distrusting even those they'd known for years after that, and it took years for the strife to settle. Yet, it was not until ages later, when a bard noticed the stories and began to compile them, that they realized that this sword was there every time and came to imagine and tell the story that the sword was the culprit. The sword soon disappeared from the rogue's possession, showing up in various collections, or shops, or in the sheath's of a newly slain enemy for someone to pocket their new sword. Perhaps... perhaps now, it has found a way to find itself into your hands. Or perhaps this is merely a bard's way of weaving a fine story around a mediocre sword in order to sell it at a higher price?

It never fails, so legend states, that all who have owned this amulet and worn it for any length of time, tend to have things begin to be chaotic around them. Walking beside a stack of perfectly ordered papers, they are interestingly found to be in the wrong order. One may think they are pouring red wine from a bottle, and white wine has poured from it. Snow has fallen from the sky one afternoon in mid-summer upon the wearer of this charm. Those usually gentle and kind, suddenly wish to brawl for no reason. They are not only chaotic, but they bring chaos of all sorts wherever they go.

Item 8
Name of Item: Snowdrop Crystal
Type of Item: Jewelry (Necklace)
My mother Jaellyssa Veryandil Ve'linde has graciously donated this beautiful necklace that she was given as a child by her grandmother, the Queen of Elvundel, for the first Winter Solstice that she remembers celebrating. It holds no special enchantments, but it is several hundred years old and exquisitely elven-crafted. In moon-light, the diamond in the center luminesces beautifully. It is strung on a black velvet choker. The Veryandil family was thrown out of power during a war that my family fought in years ago, and there are very few of my family (Ve'linde or Veryandil) left, though Elvundel still exists it is now ruled by another family.

This beautiful crown once graced the head of Princess Sarentina of Sionet, the empire that occupied most of the land of the republic in ancient times. Many of the relics that exist in UV of Sionet reside in Emmarie's relic collection, though because of the curses upon the Immortal Hills, most of the treasures remain untouched, so Sionet treasures are extremely rare. It is of gold, inset with large sapphires and studded with diamonds all the way around.

Item 12
Name of Item: Blessings of the Kathirat
Type of Item: Enchanted Amulet
The Kathirat gathered together around a block of marble, each one taking a turn in carving it as they chanted. Each of the Seven Wise Ancients as they were often called, each year, would make a charm in the likeness of woman and place it at one of Chayim 'Elat's temples in the lands, or within the crook of a tree to be found by a druid perhaps. They were small, barely the size of a woman's thumb, and delicate. Broken Kathirat charms did not work anymore. Only a handful were known to be in existence anymore, and if the Kathirat still made them, the priestesses were keeping their lips tight about their exact locations. So it was very odd when the druidess Bryllwen found one of the little marble charms tucked into the crook of a tree, nearly iced over, within her moon garden. She attached a silken cord to it, but as her powers have increased, she no longer needs the use of the Kathirat charm to give fertility to the citizens as she is gifted in giving it herself. Wearing of the charm assures fertility, often healers will "loan" it out to people to use, and then return to allow others to use. Some parchments concerning the charm state that if worn backwards, one is assured a male child, but Bryllwen has never asked those who used the charm if they tried that.

Item 13
Name of Item: Grail of Guilt
Type of Item: Enchanted Item
A relic of times past, no one knows how it came to exist or who made it, only that it was found in a dragon's treasure trove on an adventure and brought to rest in the relic room at the Paladium where Emmarie has guarded it for some time and researched it as best as she could. It seems it has an odd ability, where one may fill it with any liquid and offer it to another to drink. If the person that drinks out of the cup holds anything within them that is causing them to feel guilty towards the one that offered them the cup; if they have done them wrong in any way, lied to them, or is hiding something from them; they immediately begin to confess to that person everything after drinking from the cup.

When one looks into the sapphire, it is enchanted in such a way that you see the rolling blue waves of the oceans outside of the Oshenna Palace along with the palace sitting atop the high cliff wall.

Item 15
Name of Item: Black Rook Estate Carriage
Type of Item: phayton carriage
This is the first carriage that I ever bought when I immigrated to Ravenscrest and began my estate of Black Rook. It's elegant, and a trustworthy carriage fit for a ride into town or to a fancy ball. Well maintained, with a green velvet interior, it would suit a couple or single quite well and would be a wonderful gift for a young couple starting out in the world.

Item 16
Name of Item: Reindeer Fur
Type of Item: fur
I recently purchased a very old castle in the Hyder Mountains of Ravenscrest, which is a portion of the North Mountain Range. There are so many interesting relics and antiques within the castle. One of the many furs that was found, was this reindeer fur hung across the very old wooden throne in the main hall. One can only wonder if it once belonged to a King and if this was one of the castles of the land when it was called Sionet. Perhaps I will find out with further study.

Item 17
Name of Item: Dragon's Head Citole
Type of Item: Instrument
Danlen was one of the famous bards in Republic history, the type that refused to play in castles and noble homes, instead choosing to play in city streets, town squares, village inns and taverns and on the docks for the sailors. It's even recorded that he took several voyages around the Republic paying for his trip by entertaining the crew of the various ships he'd sail on. During one of the trips, the ship sunk and he was shipwrecked on one of the small tropical islands in the Bitter Sea for about a year, though he spent that time composing many songs and carving instruments out of the native wood of the island. This citole was one of the instruments he made during that time. The strings have since been replaced, but the body and intricate carving was all done by the loving hand of Danlen with the small knife he had on his person when he was shipwrecked on that island. The neck is carved to represent a dragon in detail, and as he had nothing else to do but fine tune it, the sound quality is absolutely amazing.

Item 18
Name of Item: Raider Seax
Type of Item: Weapon (knife)
Spoils of the war... this seax knife was taken from the body of a raider to the shores of the land in ancient times, and kept as a memento by the warrior. It was found in excellent shape in the spoils of a red dragon, along with the bones of the warrior that kept it for so long. The pommel and guard are brass, and the wood grip is studded with brass tacks, for a very secure and comfortable grip. Emmarie restored the wood through use of chronomancy, repairing the damage of time. Includes a new leather sheath, riveted and laced, that was made to protect the knife as the old sheath had rotted. Two slots are provided for thongs to tie to the waist belt. The seax was a popular single-edged knife though the profile of the seax varied a great deal. This is a beautiful and very efficient knife. It is a general purpose knife, for camp work to cutting work, on shipboard, and for fighting if it so happened that a sword or axe was not available.

Item 21
Name of Item: Circle of Warmth
Type of Item: Enchanted Cloak Clasp
Used on a cloak, once clasped, it is enchanted to bring warmth as though standing in front of a toasty fire or cuddled in a warm blanket even if you are in the midst of an icy storm. The clasp itself remains cold to the touch, but the cloth of one's cloak is warm and can be used to warm others as long as the clasp on it remains clasped. This was created and enchanted by Bryllwen, though she is not affected by the cold, her land itself is cold and dark and she made several of these so that her visitors were comfortable in her lands especially in winter when it was bitterly cold.

Item 22
Name of Item: Cruul's Arm Harness
Type of Item: Armor
The warriors of Cruul were easily identified in the heyday of the worship of this chaotic evil god of destruction and pain. Cruul especially enjoyed the killing and torture of children, on a recent journey into an ancient Cruul temple, many children's skulls and skeletons were found along with various other gruesome implements of war and torture. Though this item is not enchanted, anyone of any alignment may wear it, those familiar with Cruul and what it stands for may still associate it with Cruul and his vile and vicious ways so the more evil aligned may be more inclined to purchase it.

Item 29
Name of Item: Blade of Embitterment
Type of Item: Enchanted Sword
This well crafted and beautiful sword has unknown origins, though legend surrounds it and drawings of a very similar sword have been found in tomes and parchments from ancient times. It was found in the armory of a Quirilian King at the beginning of the first wars in those lands, and used during many of the first battles, the King did not lead his army to victory nor did the other side have victory, yet many on both sides were slaughtered and a deep bitterness began to grow on both sides. Several weeks after the battles had subsided for a time, the sword disappeared completely. Years later, in another part of the Republic, a sword that certainly looked very similar showed up in a shop and was sold to a rogue by the name of Davenport, who proceeded to wreak havoc upon many parts of our land and other lands with the sword. Every village he and his group swept through, was left in turmoil and bitterness, people distrusting even those they'd known for years after that, and it took years for the strife to settle. Yet, it was not until ages later, when a bard noticed the stories and began to compile them, that they realized that this sword was there every time and came to imagine and tell the story that the sword was the culprit. The sword soon disappeared from the rogue's possession, showing up in various collections, or shops, or in the sheath's of a newly slain enemy for someone to pocket their new sword. Perhaps... perhaps now, it has found a way to find itself into your hands. Or perhaps this is merely a bard's way of weaving a fine story around a mediocre sword in order to sell it at a higher price?
