Jake Narmolanya hustled through the bazaar, shoppers and storefronts whizzing by on both sides. The half elf had just portal-skipped from the grounds of Ixian Castle, where his friend Joshua Cronen was resting in between rounds of the Cell.

The youth breezed into a renowned forge that offered rare materials and a variety of services. Word was they even retained enchanters for rush jobs as necessary.

Jake tossed a sack of coin on the counter with a thump that said thousands.

"I need a few things," he said, awkwardly drawing a dehlar bastard sword that was clearly too big for him. "Start with this. It's for the Breaker."

Hopefully none of this is too difficult to work out... No RP necessary, I just wanted to write that bit.

1 dehlar bastard sword upgraded to a greatsword with a prevaldia blade. The dehlar bastard sword is in my profile ("him" in my sig)... I want the dehlar sword's blade to become the core of the prevaldia greatsword, and build the handle up but keep it made of dehlar - mostly for storyline purposes but also for the extra weight. So ideally: a dehlar bastard sword for a dehlar-cored prevaldia-bladed greatsword. And... is black diamond available for the edges? <:)

1 sea-serpent scale (or the best hide I can get, preferably something scaly) scabbard for the greatsword, with four tight cargo pockets sewn down the back that can hold...

4 solid delyn balls weighing 2 pounds each

30 yards of dehlar cable 1cm (approx half an inch) in diameter... I seem to remember dehlar makes the best cable/wire, if that's not the case I'll take whatever metal does. And this needs to be able to string up a 500lbs moose, so if it needs to be a bit thicker make it so.

1 black martial arts kimono (gi), vlince

And since the Bazaar suddenly sells bullets, I'll take 24 steel for the Colt Anaconda.

Thanks a lot!

The prevalida greatsword would be 1350 GP and it would cost 175 GP to graft the dehlar core.

You can't have a sea serpent scale unless you obtain it on your own, but I can sell you a young dragon scale scabbard for 400 GP.

The delyn balls are 30 GP a pop for a total of 120 GP.

It's 225 GP for the cable.

Finally, 450 GP for the vlince kimono.

That's 2720 GP total. I think you can stomach it.

You can't buy those types of bullets without some type of special agreement. I'd happily make one with you, if you're interested.

I accept! I'm assuming that means no black diamond as well, but that's fine. And a special agreement on bullets would be great, what do you have in mind?

Alas, yes, black diamond is one of those special materials.

I think a fair agreement for a revolver, particularly one the size of an Anaconda, would be 1000 GP per bullet. These bullets could only be purchased from the bazaar, and they could not be sold, traded, or transferred without administrative permission. You would also have to keep a bullet count in your signature to be audited by judges at the end of competitive RP. I would not be opposed to you using unlimited bullets in non-competitive RP subject to ordinary judgment (as in over reliance on the weapon might net you a lower action score). If this is too steep (and it shouldn't be given your impressive bank), I would also consider reducing the price of the bullets to 100 GP with a 20% normal EXP reduction per thread. The same competitive/non-competitive rules would apply.

Let me know what you prefer.

Alright, I'll take the other stuff + 1 steel bullet for the Anaconda at 1000GP. I will save it for the opportune moment.

3720 GP removed.
