Custom Pillows?

Postby Friar Briar » Sat Oct 11, 2014 5:19 pm

Hello :) I'm pretty new to the game, but I was thinking...

If weapons can be customized with a description and clothes can be customized with a description, then could feather pillows have a customized description too?

Example: a feather pillow - an over-stuffed, heart-shaped pillow with the word Mother and an arrow embroidered on it

What do you think?

Funny, I would've thought that was already an option :P

Sure!

Also, it'd be nice if the pillows included what material the cases were made out of? Say, there's the hemp, silk, and cotton ones, and I think it'd be nice if there was a way to tell which fabric was used.

Yes. And... Towels and napkins should also be able to have a description.

Would be nice.

Lots of RP items don't have custom descriptions enabled. I'm not sure if it's was deliberately done or just no one got around to it. If you want to suggest any items (napkins, combs, pipes, pillows) to have descriptions, please mention which tool you think is most appropriate for this.

Needle for napkins, towels and pillows seems obvious enough.

I believe we do want this, please :)

Ivory/Jade comb: iron/bronze carving knife
Wooden comb: [bone/bronze] knife
calumet/carved wooden/corncob pipe: iron/bronze carving knife

Because those are the tools used to make them and I can imagine them being used to alter them further.

Also, Woolen blanket: needle.

Oh, and I can imagine a six-sided die being carved so each face has a shape on it, like a card suits or other symbol, instead of numbers or dots.
ivory/jade: iron/bronze carving knife
stone: iron/bronze chisel
wooden: [bone/bronze] knife

For custom candles and soap,

Candle - 40g beeswax, 5g string + tool = bone knife or knife
For example, Candle - a red candle carved in the shape of a blooming rose

Soap - [coconut, foul-smelling, lavender, lemon, pumpkin, rose, shea butter]
All ingredients + tool = bone knife or knife
For example, Lemon Soap - sweet smelling lemon soap shaped into a duck

This is a great idea!
