We're running an artifact auction for the Celebration of the Stars! Please read HELP AUCTIONHOUSE and HELP AUCTIONS to familiarize yourself with the auctioning system.

As usual, any artifacts bought through auction (including the gold items) cannot be traded in, nor can their power be transferred to any other item.

+----------------+
| CREDIT AUCTION |
+----------------+

A silver pet whistle
--------------------
Don't you wish you could show off how large your minipet collection truly is? Now you can! By blowing this whistle, ALL of your minipets will be summoned to your current area and roam around for the next ten minutes. This will tire them out, so it can only be done once an hour!

A commander's seal
------------------
Everybody following you and in your web gets a 10% bonus to experience gain and 10% increased damage against NPCs. Also works for yourself - but only if you have someone with you!

A demonic horn
--------------
This artifact elicits a terrifying noise when blown, instilling fear in the minds of everybody in the area.

A pair of weighted shoes
------------------------
Wearing these shoes grants you a moderate chance to remain standing after an opponent attempts to knock you over. Broken limbs will negate this chance.

A market stall construction kit
-------------------------------
A perennial favorite, the market stall construction kit is a portable shopfront from which the owner can sell his or her wares without limitation. Note that the shopfront can only be set up in those rooms where an IN exit is available.

Custom Wings
------------
This works similar to the wings/amulet artifact, but acts as your own personal portal room. You can specify up to 12 unique exits from your portal room, but these are subject to some restrictions (e.g. can't connect to a city, or an offplane room). The custom wings have the same benefits and restrictions as the other Wings/Amulets and must be activated via a spoken phrase. The item itself doesn't have to specifically be 'wings'.

A merchant's logbook
--------------------
The logbook allows you to switch between Mercantile skills once per hour. When you use the logbook to switch your Mercantile skill, it will remain at the same skill rank as your previous Mercantile skill, meaning you will only ever need to invest lessons in one Mercantile skill.

A pack of the void
------------------
Take care of all your storage worries at once! The bag of the void can hold an infinite amount of items within it.

| GOLD AUCTION |
+--------------+

Supreme Celestine bracers of devastation
----------------------------------------
These bracers contain level 4 of the critical_chance artifact power, conferring an 8% increase.

Forging Hammer
--------------
As sold through the artifact shop, this hammer increases your chance of higher stats when refining.

Esterport shop
--------------
Ownership of the closed down Esterport shop at v4970! Make sure you pay your taxes if you win, otherwise you'll lose ownership again.

A Juggernaut's Belt
-------------------
This artifact contains the following properties: strength(1), dexterity(1), intelligence(1), constitution(1), enhancement(1).

A ring of Dwarven fortitude
---------------------------
While worn, this ring makes you immune to most of the effects of drunkeness. Strangely, it doesn't seem to work in the arena, during special events, or in the Panda stance.

A Torc of Vitality
------------------
The Torc of Vitality grants the use of the Vitality ability. This artifact can only be used by its owner.

An extendable hand
------------------
Now you can have the ability to annoy everybody. The extendable hand allows you to use the POKE and SLAP emotes on anyone in a room that is within line-of-sight of your location. This shows as an extendable hand entering the room and performing the action on the target.

A gem of adaptation
-------------------
Contains both the adaptation and polymath powers, allowing you to change your class once an hour, and also letting you change your statpack when you do so!

Penned by my hand on Gosday, the 6th of Variach, year 460 of the Midnight Age.
