Market Thread

[Forum Administration]

Welcome to the Market Thread. You may purchase items for your character, or characters in your kingdom (in the event of rulers) by making a post in this thread with your purchase and removing the money from your profile. Check back later to make sure your post was confirmed (sometimes mistakes occur and posts are rejected).

Common Reasons for Rejection Include:
1) Failure to put a link to your officer information in your signature
2) You do not have the accounting put in for the item you are trying to purchase
3) Skills or stats not listed, or the skills are not in alphabetical order
4) There is no gold history
5) No verification provided for a loan from another officer - link the transfer or get them to post here too.
6) Gold history does not show the current balance after each transaction

The items available in the Market are:
Weapons: These items are hand-held implements of war and combat.
Bodywear: These items are worn on the body.
Headwear: These items are worn on the head.
Mounts: These are animals you can ride.
Jewelry: These are items that can be worn such as rings, pendants, and bracelets.
Manuals: These are books that can be carried on your PC.
Treatises: These are scrolls that can be carried on your PC.
Maps: These are maps detailing specified locations.
Treasures: These are items that can be given as gifts to PCs or NPCs.
In order for your post to be confirmed, you must have a link in your signature or in your post to your Officer Information post, and there should be a list of gold transactions in your Officer Information. This way, we know the gold isn't coming out of thin air.

All officers, upon creation, are assumed to have basic equipment. This includes a normal sword, armour, bow if they like, etc. The items sold here are exceptional items, and increase your stats or give you skills and special abilities. Items may increase stats beyond 100.

For new players, it might be a good idea to familiarise yourself with Chapter 3.3: Items & The Market before proceeding in this thread. Remember, you may only equip and receive the benefits from one of each type of item listed in the chapter. The only exception to this is Jewelry, for which your character may enjoy the benefits of two Jewelry-type items. However, your character is free to own as many of each item as they wish.

For the items listed below, you are free to RP them in any way you wish (within historical limits and realism), but cannot change the type or bonus that the items give. So for example, if your character owns a Level 3 Melee Weapon, you are free to describe it as a whip, axe, or mace, depending on your RP preferences.
