Hey everbody,
I am looking for some items players would like to see for sale in an elven area and items that players consider being typically elven.
They should be mundane things and preferably objects of an every day use, no weapons or armour.
Thanks.

Weit in der Champagne im Mittsommergrün,
dort, wo zwischen Grabkreuzen Mohnblumen blühn,
da flüstern die Gräser und wiegen sich leicht
im Wind, der sanft über das Gräberfeld streicht.

Oh, and drinks. Don't forget the drinks.

Re: Elven Brainstorming: mundane items
talking about mount gear, shouldn't there be eagle harnesses and giant eagle mounts as well?
There's supposed to be that one military group from Evermeet that rides them I think.
May already exist in game but... yeah
Apart from that, I think the most iconic elven things for me are foresty hooded elven cloaks and boots.
Eargloves? For the discerning elf who just feels that human earmuffs aren't enough, these dashing pair of narrow slips of fabric go onto the ear pointy tip first and should prove snug for a warm winter.

I trained up double-edged bananas because the uber-plantain of doom I scored from the beehive quest was the best weapon in the game. Now it's being treated like a bug and they have gimped its damage! That's not fair! My character is ruined!

As for the rest, good ideas there, many already covered, too. But keep them coming, I am interested in what the playerbase associates with elves.
No eargloves, though.

Re: Elven Brainstorming: mundane items
You don't get a cut of the profits from the upcoming earglove market then Lari.
Other things I associate with elves after reading a few novels are.
Wood carving tools and finish. Varnish, carving and whittling knives, polish.
,musical Wind instruments.
Hair ornaments and house pins. I don't believe I've ever thought or seen a house pin before here. Every book I've read with human nobles always had crests born on doublets, or perhaps a necklace or bracelet /ring at the most.
Single archery bracer.
Think thats it for now

Re: Elven Brainstorming: mundane items
Decorative pink underwear for elven warriors?
Seriously, my recommendation would be for customer elven staple merchandise such as clothing (those sweet robes elves wear in all the movies, etc.), accessories (custom scabbards, belts, or bracers in elf style), or footwear (elven style boots?). I recommend these things because they will help elves build a coherent elf wardrobe without clashing with too many magical objects.

Re: Elven Brainstorming: mundane items
I've seen a recent trend with elves in film and television depictions wearing earcuffs, like elven earrings that cover the pointed ears. https://41.media.tumblr.com/331c554d99c ... o1_500.jpg
Justice is not neccesarily honourable, it is a tolerable business, in essence you tolerate honour until it impedes justice, then you do what is right.

A goblin, a trickster, a warrior? A nameless terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. A most feared being in all the cosmos. Nothing could stop, hold, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
