Name of object (should be short and sweet, usually one word only)
brief: the name of an object as it appears ig. Do not include material or color.
look: This is a short, one sentence explanation of what the object is.
examine: This is the detailed description of the object. The more detailed the better.

Example:

Name: box
brief: coffin
look: A coffin with a lid.
examine: A coffin. It is shaped wider at the shoulders, narrowing towards the head and feet. It has a one-piece lid which is separate from the rest and is fixed down with wooden pegs.


When you send in your ideas don't forget to sign it and you can send your scrolls to Ditto, Cosmo, or Spot. Everyone who submits something will get storypoints and the top three winner will get a storypoint item.

Happy thinking

[Spot]

Try and come up with things that are small, both that pcs might carry or that they might have in their rooms.

It could be anything from kitchenware such as plates, or items which people might carry from snuff boxes to pomander cases to whatever you can come up with. Feel free to describe things I listed if you like them.

While statues are nice, crafters get the most traction from items that most people want to use, either for their rooms for storage or guests, or for use themselves.

Every player who submits an entry to the contest will get 5 points per entry up to 15 points. And any items which get added in will receive 20 points. Feel free to submit more than three items, since they can all still earn the 20 points.

[Spot]

Two small updates. Rather than send scrolls or PM, please post submissions here.

That'll do two things, let people see what is already submitted and give others ideas (and whet creative and competitive juices).

In addition, when creating objects they can have multiple traits or details. For example, a mirror might have its main description, we call that the Default detail. In addition, it might have a description for its Frame and for its Stand.

Each one of those would have a brief, a look and an examine.

The more robust an item is, the more likely it is to be chosen.

[╰☆╮SBCọsmṓ╰☆╮]

Here is a list of things that are already created, but not available in game just yet. These will be added when everything is all finished.

(Just so we don't end up having duplicates)

Some things are unfinished, and if you would like to submit ideas that are based off of a parent object, please feel free to do so!

(A parent item means you would begin creating a more detailed item from this object. Much like a plain shirt in seamstressing can be tailored into various other shirts, vests, bodices and so on and so forth)

I'll highlight the ones that need help in red. Also, for parent items, please include a description of each individual item.

EXAMPLE: (And this is an actual item that we need more detailed versions of. Frames -may- be added upon in-character RP with carpenters. They'll be like small carved pieces of art that you can hang on a wall. )

A DECORATIVE FRIEZE (parent item)

brief: STONE lily decorative frieze

look: A STONE decorative frieze carved in the shape of a lily.

examine: The flower itself is the highlight of this carving which is made more prominent by the area around the lily being scraped down to a flat smoothness, while the lily seems to protrude forth from the depiction in the style of an embossing.
(Not finished, if you have a better way to depict carved reliefs, feel free to suggest them)



These flower shapes will apply to tea cups, saucers and dining plates below.

Shape options - rose, clover, petunia, morning glory, lily pad, lotus, tulip, dahlia, carnation, poppy, cherry blossom, apple blossom, amaryllis, moonflower, anemone, aster, gerbera-daisy, calla lily, chrysanthemum, daffodil, gladiola, iris, orchid, peony, sunflower, freesia.

Some other ideas to consider. These are things I was thinking of adding, but just haven't had the time to yet. Feel free to use any of these as your submissions after adding more detailed descriptions.

An individual salt dish or squat open salt cellar placed near a trencher was called a trencher salt. Can have squat 'legs' for support.


Pepper grinder -


Sauce boat - A boat-shaped pitcher in which sauce or gravy is served. It often sits on a matching plate, sometimes attached to the pitcher, to catch dripping sauce.
