Mars,
Your smart weapons..are those the white runed ones you unlocked at RtCF?
Re black ora mask
A helm does sound kinda cool as a use for black ora, I could see why it was requested in plat. I'm not sure I understood where this non-functional mask was to be worn. Is there the option that it can be worn similiar to the face concealing shrouds or in the features like the whisper masks?

Those are designed specifically to show up differently. The mask is head worn. But it has all the black ora jewelry functions. This one is NOT a helmet, it's a simple prop piece. If the winner would rather have a helmet, I can switch it out. But it would need to be done over the DMC weekend. It won't be honored at a later time.

It's greater black ora, therefore functional and head worn.

I tried to find a reference to black Ora on Krakiipedia but can't find anything about jewelry. Is it just cursed super scripts jewelry?

Black ora jewelry can never be removed once worn, but is distributed in witchwood boxes. Items can be designed by the winners, and can be designated to be worn on the head, wrist, finger, neck, earlobe, ankle, or in the hair. Greater black ora jewelry has a spirit drain and returns mana, as well as giving a way to create a pillar of darkness. It also has scripts for infuse, touch, clench, and pose. Locked black ora jewelry may have scripts as well, but it's unknown for sure.

Good news -- black ora, greater and lesser, is non-functional as of Wyrom's original changes.
Rejoice! And thank Wyrom.

It is the same script. I've just given it a name (Smart Weapons) so people can easily reference to it.
For those unfamiliar with these weapons, ANALYZE one while holding it and you will learn quite a bit about the weapon's current status. After attuned, you will see new verbs/commands appear in ANALYZE. In this case, being attuned to the weapon is strictly a matter of weapon and wielder having a mild affinity for each other. Due to the fickle nature of elementals, it can quickly forget its former master and begin to like someone else as soon as they use any relevant verbs/commands. This makes them easily transferable between characters (yay!), but also can force you to have to re-attune to if someone happens to pick it up after it is dropped/disarmed/etc, and that person also happens to play around with it.
Good luck in the maze!

Here's something that hasn't been done before...
>look katana
Two spherical depressions adorn the black rolaren katana, approximately the size and shape of a small gem. All of the gem chambers are currently empty.
There appears to be something written on it.
>look second katana
Two spherical depressions adorn the silvery eonake katana, approximately the size and shape of a small gem. All of the gem chambers are currently empty.

The properties ascribed to the Beastcleaver are a bit above and beyond what we would normally release, through any means.
If there is a serious interest, it could probably be tweaked down and released through some method. But it's a longsword, which is decidedly not a falchion, handaxe, shortsword, or dagger, so no one would use it :(

Some people still choose weapons based on RP and not mechanics... It's a select few.

For flaring weapons, my TWC bard uses shorts now. But for crit weighted, he still uses longswords. Nothing like swinging two longs, and singing a longsword singing sword song.

longswords are one of the items that folks ask Clunk to make, so they cant be that unpopular

I put the set from the first DMC on my TWC warrior. The Crit/Damage weighted set of Longsword/Short Sword with belt.
Rest assured Longswords may not be as popular as some other OHE weapon types, but by no means are they despised.

I don't care how much anyone likes longswords. No one should be removing the fittings for its half dozen orbs, or roughing up the keen edge of the blade of the Beastcleaver just so someone can "own" it. For shame. Shame! A pox on all your houses!

I'm with Clunk on this one. As one of Plats most prominent forgers I will say that longsword is one of my most requested OHE.
