hmm, not sure since I'm not very big into themed items as is. I'll let others give suggestions. To me if its themed I won't buy it 99% of the time.

although the idea of cambrinth-inset [tower] shields would be awesome. turning into a y'shai is still a wonderful dream.

Something wearable that would hold 30+ mana. Guildcrest, lion, "justice", or my personal preference a tiger.

You mean just provide items like this or in the form of a cam item? I'm looking for the latter. If this what you meant, could you give me some ideas or examples? I guess I'm not really picturing a prayer cam item.

weren't there cambrinth prayer beads in one of the backpack-o-stuff prizes on that Ghost Ship quest? IIRC it even held more than 32 mana.

looking things up, this was part of the cleric prize package:

a strand of gleaming cambrinth prayer beads with a gold-inlaid platinum clasp
Large beads of reddish-black cambrinth, each enameled with the silhouette of one of the thirty-nine Immortals, are strung on a gold chain. Finishing the strand is a polished platinum clasp deeply etched with the Cleric's Guild crest and filled with red-gold.

LOL. Actually, I do like simple items, not neccesarily dark or gruesome. I agree with Pureblade, short taps. I prefer function over fluff.

Secondly, if there were items created that favored a darker side of Paladinism, and they were available to everyone, I'd probably not use them as RP tools. I have a few items with custom alterations that mean alot more to me than a Botolf shield or Dark Hand theme item worn by all the Darth Vader wannabe's would.

I gave up on the whole dark paladin thing a few years ago. If I've generated a rep for not playing a stellar, law abiding, goody goody Paladin [insert jerk, moron, snert, brickhead, etc... as needed], its not because of what I wear or use.

All that said; give us some simple items that I won't mind buying for a noobie. Use some of the quest end prizes as a template, so that I could (or others could) go buy a blue and silver backpack, and have a half-decent set of matching armor, shield, and maybe a weapon or two. It wouldn't have to be as valuable as the quest stuff, just a consistant theme for the 3 Paladin Gods. Could also have simple themes based on spell paths (smiter, scholar, justicar), or take a page from skill based titles and set reqs for certain packages or items.

Actually I agree with the position of many in the past that state we are Defenders of the GODS (plural) and should not limit our items to only Chadatru/lion themes


>>Let me be more detailed with my request. I'm looking for specific item requests that you guys would like to see.

So, along those lines, I'd say a mix of items worn on the wrist/arm/neck and depict ALL the gods aspects totem animals, ie.

A cambrinth wristband depicting a Raven -- Welkin -- Raccoon
A cambrinth pendant depicting a Unicorn -- Cow -- Adder
A cambrinth bracer depicting a Wolf -- Owl -- Shrew

Etc to cover all 3 aspects of each of the 13.

Of course, throw in the obligatory cambrinth epaulet with the Paladins Guild Crest on it. Still loving on mine from the Guild meeting long ago.

Is there any chance of combining a functional soulstone with cambrinth? In the Forgotten Realms novel, Tantras, this mortal person dies due to some trick by an evil god and Torm (this mortal's preferred patron) came to collect this soul. At the end of this exchange, the evil god would only grant this soul to Torm if he could demonstrate that this soul still was a true believer of Torm. To test this, Torm showed him his gauntlets and asked him to read what was written on them. Non-believers would see gibberish or nothing at all, true believers would see the runes for "honor" and "justice" from all the mortal languages of the world.

The item could be rubbed for soulstone effect, or charged/focused for cambrinth effect.

A few knee-jerk thoughts...

A large cambrinth-trimmed tower shield embossed with the Paladin guild crest
Simple and largely unadorned, this tower shield has the raised crest of the Paladin guild directly in the center, accented by rings of hammered cambrinth.

A cambrinth-inlaid tower shield adorned with the lion of Chadatru
Carefully crafted for durability, the dark stone of the cambrinth is inlaid in the broad surface and effectively accents the proud lion of Chadatru boldly set in the center of this shield.

Some cambrinth-inlaid field plate armor etched with the symbols of the Immortals
Painstakenly crafted symbols of each of the 39, each outlined and separated with a border of cambrinth, cover the entire chest of the handcrafted armor.

Off the top of my head, I doubt it. Course, this doesn't mean it needs to remain that way but it may be tricky should we decide to ever expand on soulstones.

I have deliberately not created more of these to make those other ones still a little special. But if you guys are ok with it, I'll happily create more though - different descriptions of course.

if we shouldn't have a renown scroll to prevent jealousy, clearly we should have epaulets from all to prevent dark soul-killing envy! ;)

i'm fine with cambrinth epaulets. it's something nice paladins could have any it isn't like the old ones were more than just "hey thanks for coming" presents. i'm not going to feel slighted because someone else has fancy-text-shoulder-worn-cambrinth-X too.

Re: Cambrinth items 03/22/2006 04:32 PM CST
My suggestions, two sets of full HP armor. One gritty and battleworn, the other idealized and pristine.



TAP: a set of scratched iron field plate embedded with solid bars of rough cambrinth
LOOK: Heavy, thick plates of scored iron and thick layers of stained leather make up this durable armor. Though the metal surfaces are clearly cared for, deep gouges and traces of rust cover the armor and bear testament to long years of hard use. Four cambrinth bars, each rough-hewn and about a size to easily fit in the palm of one?s hand, are equally spaced on the breastplate while two more adorn the spaulders.

TAP: some scratched iron gauntlets embedded with a small cambrinth disc on each hand
LOOK: Thick iron, scored and pitted, is secured with thick layers of stained leather to provide a high level of protection. Though the metal surfaces are clearly cared for, deep gouges and traces of rust cover the armor and bear testament to long years of hard use. The cambrinth discs are rough-hewn and fitted to the back of each hand for easy access.

TAP: a scratched iron great helm trimmed with strips of rough cambrinth
LOOK: A solid piece of scored and pitted iron padded with thick leather, the helm is strong and durable. Though the metal surfaces are clearly cared for, deep gouges and traces of rust cover the armor and bear testament to long years of hard use. Thin strips of cambrinth trim the viewing slits and form a scowling visage upon the face of the helm.



TAP: some sleek field plate of mirrored steel adorned with a large cambrinth disc
LOOK: Highly polished to a mirror shine, this sleek and heavily-articulated armor combines formidable protection with a simple but attractive design. Rounded surfaces, practical for daily combat, manage to give the armor a vaguely organic feel. Black leather padding and straps are designed not to draw attention from the gleaming surfaces of the metal plates. The cambrinth disc, centered upon the breastplate and embossed with a roaring lion, is set in a solid steel ring.

TAP: some sleek gauntlets of mirrored steel adorned with small cambrinth discs
LOOK: Highly polished to a mirror shine, these sleek and heavily-articulated gauntlets combine formidable protection with a simple but attractive design. Rounded surfaces, practical for daily combat, manage to give the armor a vaguely organic feel. An overlapping pattern of stylized Paladin runes and glyphs are deeply etched upon the palm of each hand while the cambrinth discs, centered upon the back of each hand and embossed with the Paladin guild crest, are set in solid steel rings.

TAP: a sleek winged helm of mirrored steel bearing a cambrinth disc
LOOK: Highly polished to a mirror shine, this sleek open-faced helm combines formidable protection with a simple but attractive. Rounded surfaces, practical for daily combat, manage to give the armor a vaguely organic feel. The swept-back wings are of gleaming silver and a generous sprinkling of diamond dust, making them twinkle in even the dimmest light. The cambrinth disc, centered upon the brow and embossed with the Paladin guild crest, is set in a solid steel ring.




Seeing as they're designed for Paladins with 180+ in Magical Devices, I'd think they should be rather costly and protect better than storebought. (Forged quality would be nice, but perhaps split the difference between storebought and capped regular-metal forged if necessary.)

Is this the kind of stuff you are talking about? Full plate suits of armor and repeating crossbows with a smidge of cambrith. Or do you mean standard cambrith rings,armbands,orbs, and handheld items with unique designs? I thought you kind of ment what kind of designs would you like to see but everyone seems to be coming up with these huge totally new types of never before seen cambrith.

Well obviously, I think a God like slice sword made entirely of cambrith that can hold 250 mana that appraises at 1 copper and was both bonded and indestructable and graverobber protected and just by rubbing it it would cast AS,PFE,RW,DA, and was of course permenitlly blessed would be the best.

However I was asking because if thats what Macae is looking for then sure I cam make suggestions like that however if she is only going to make standard stuff with unique looks I'll make suggestions in that route.

Go crazy, do both, I rather enjoy seeing the products of folks imaginations. Generally, a great deal of the suggestions are pretty awesome. Additionally, knowing Maece, every suggestion goes into her notes file she's mentioned a time or two, and if it doesn't appear in the next round of shop upgrades, who knows about future merchants and such. Of course, if suggesting reasonable and realistic ideas doesn't suit, I wouldn't mind that sword either.
