The Auction House

[Tobias Stalt]

"400."

Stalt placed a handful of coins on the table of the Auction house as the serving girl placed his drink next to him. The problem with these upscale places was, they never carried lower end drinks like grog, mead, or ale. In situations like that, Tobias had learned to tolerate the ritzier drinks. In this particular instance, he fancied a Beaujolais from the northeastern region of Corone. It smelled of deep berries and black currant, a subdued fruity aroma that set his taste buds ablaze.

This weapon piqued his interest, if only for it's combat utility.

I quickly did the change from metric to Coronian Imperial, and clicked my tongue in disapproval. I owned bracelets as a child that were bigger than the amount of gold that sword could create.

But that first trick it could do, though...

Raising two fingers into the air, I made my bid. "Five fifty."

[Tobias Stalt]

Tobias sipped gingerly at his glass, a smirk creeping across his features. When Madison upped the ante, it was all he could do to contain his excitement. A battle was about to begin, not of blades so much as coins.

"600," he slurred.

[Hysteria]

"700!" said Talen.

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

"Eight hundred," I said.

And a punch to Stalt's kidneys if he raises the bid, I muttered under my breath.

[Tobias Stalt]

"One thousand," Tobias winked at Freebird, savoring the flavor of his vintage. A blade's a blade, but gold I can't pocket isn't worth my own gold. We'll have to see how this plays out.

"Sold! to the man who knows not what he's agreed to!" shouted Jack, more than a little pleased with his pun.

Tobias receives Greed! Please link to this post for proof of purchase. Gold has been taken!

Greed
Greed is a golden cutlass of Delyn strength with a fine gold mesh across the hand guard. Greed was crafted by a dwarven outcast Doreena Blackhearth. Doreena was known for mixing magic and metal with radical, often disastrous effect. Those that wield Greed feel cold and empty afterwards. The price for this weapon's power is a loss of the warmth of the soul.

• Blind - The surface of Greed lights up with a blinding flash of light. All those within a few metres are dazzled by the display and will often take a short time (a post) to recover. Greed can do this three times a day, needing at least some sunlight to recharge. Beware, the caster is not immune from this, all those are blinded by Greed if they look upon it,
• Midas - The cursed king in the ancient fable would turn all he touched into gold. Greed’s power is not as extensive as that, instead this sword can coat what it touches in a thin layer of Delyn strength gold around what it touches. If used correctly this can restrict movement by targeting joints or the like, however given the multifaceted uses possible this is just the tip. The gold will last a decent time (two posts) before crumbling away to powder and covers an surface area of thirty centimeters. This can be used five times a day.

"Next up my dear friends we have the wonderful sin that is Sloth! Bidding starts at 200!"

Sloth -
Sloth is, for most of the time, the length of a short spear. The majority of the shaft is wound into a tight coil which can be released in a sudden explosion of force and extends it's length to five metres. The tip of the spear is able to pierce finely crafted Prevalida plate mail. The spear itself is the strength of Titanium. Sloth was crafted by a dwarven outcast Doreena Blackhearth. Doreena was known for mixing magic and metal with radical, often disastrous effect. To use the powerful attack offered by Sloth, the wielder must be standing still, and their feet become locked in place until the weapon re-coils itself. The attack takes just a second, while it takes five to re-coil. As a note of warning, a few people have tried bracing the spear against their chests and let their immobilized feet take the force. Some of those people have experienced being skewed with the blunt end of a spear. One must be able to direct the spear using great strength, less it be thrown wide.

"I'll go 200 for Sloth." Said Talen in an apparent pity bid.
