- Weapon - Sold to Mitsurugi:
Name:
Turan
Rank:
Legendary(+)
Type:
Sword
Description & Appearance:
A weapon named after a Etruscan goddess of love and vitality, Turan is a special weapon once forgotten and now re-discovered. Unlike many other weapons, it's blade seems to be made out of pink-tinted glass that is enchanted with special magic. Not only the blade, however, but the whole weapon appears to be saturated with special magical power that will aid anyone who wields this tool. But something like that does not happen easily, as there is a legend tied to Turan. Only a chosen magician may wield this weapon and use it against their foes. When the chosen one touches the sword's hilt, a pair of butterfly wings will sprout from the guard and shine brilliantly, unlocking the true potential hidden within the otherwise useless, but still pretty, piece of equipment.
Despite the weapon's apparent theme and origin, it's abilities are very much combat-oriented and gives it's wielder an extra edge in close-range battle. While not as deadly as some other legendary weapon's of this type, Turan is still an extremely dangerous enemy for anyone, as those who oppose its wielder might find themselves unable to dodge its attacks or even give up outright.
Strengths:- A legendary blade that gives its user unique powers to use in combat
Weaknesses:- Due to the weapon's appearance, some might be a bit too embarrassed to use it
- Cannot be used by non-mages

- Pet - Sold to ivyleaf33:
Name:
Pandacota
Rank:
Ethereal(+)
Species:
Sentient pudding
Type:
Combat pet
Description & Appearance:
This strawberry flavored pudding shaped like a panda was made by Earthland's most famous chef! However, there was a slight mistake when using certain magical ingredients. It would appear too many of them were used and the pudding creation gained it's own dose of life, becoming sentient and perfectly capable of everyday life. Proud of his creation, the chef declared this Pandacota his absolute masterpiece and released it to the wild before retiring, as he could never hope to create anything better.
Now, the Pandacota roams the world in hopes of finding a friend, companion, someone who would ease the painful loneliness in its heart. Despite its looks, this creature is perfectly capable of feelings and conversations with just about anyone!
Abilities:
Name: Sea of Pudding
Rank: A
Duration: 5 posts
Cooldown: 6 posts
Description: The Pandacota can inflate itself until it becomes a giant cube of pudding, 150 by 150 meters. However, because the pudding becomes so spread out, it takes on properties similar to water. Anyone who is in the affected area is absorbed and can either remain in the cube of pudding or try to swim out of it. Either way, those who choose to remain will face suffocation as they take 50% of A-ranked damage for every post they are inside. Those who remain for the entire duration will take a total of 250% A-ranked damage over the course of 5 posts. But Pandacota is careful to not hurt its master, doing its best to ease the burden on them and not affect them with the damage even if they remain inside of the cube. However, Pandacota itself cannot move until the duration is up or the spell is cut short.
Strengths:- Powerful DoT ability that can trap and damage many enemies
Weaknesses:- Pandacota cannot move at all when the spell is active
- Even if not damaged, allies to the pet still have to at least swim through the pudding
Name: Absorption
Rank: S
Duration: 7 posts
Cooldown: 8 posts
Description: The Pandacota can inflate itself until it becomes a giant ball of pudding, 10 meters in diameter. It can remain in this state for the entire duration or less and roll around, trapping all enemies in its way inside of its delicious body. Those absorbed by Pandacota are completely stuck inside of it for a single post and each enemy can be absorbed like this only once per casting of this spell. Only the most powerful of H-ranked mages can break free instantly! There is but one downside to this ability. While in this state, Pandacota is 50% slower.
Strengths:- Powerful stun ability that lasts a long time and can entrap many enemies
Weaknesses:- Slows the pet down considerably
- Those of H-rank go completely unaffected by this ability
PRICE: 300,000 Jewels or 15 CCSTOCK: 1- Powerful DoT ability that can trap and damage many enemies

Name:
Valentine Dragon Slayer
Type:
Dragon Slayer
Element(s):
Fire & Love
Description:
Dragons come in many different flavors. While most know them as holders of the basic elements, there are even some that represent combinations of different forces. The most unique among those are dragons that represent concepts themselves. One such dragon was born to the fate of creature meant to represent love and passion. Despite not choosing this life, the dragon we now know as St. Valentine.
During his life, this dragon held so much love and passion that he ignited his magic, giving it physical form. As such, the Flames of Passion were created. While they could still burn, they could also comfort and bring delight to those who would touch them. Determined to have this power survive, he converted his entire magic into this lacrima at the end of his life. And now, this powerful item has been re-discovered!
Valentine Dragon slayer can consume any and all flames in order to regain MP and enter Dragon Force. They can also consume love, but only from spells that come specifically from love-themed magic. Their spells can be similar to regular Flame dragon slayer, but also supportive and even healing with a variety of bonus effects. It is said that the Flames of Passion can also charm enemies, either stopping them in their tracks or completely converting foe into an ally. But such claims have yet to be confirmed in any way.PRICE: 100 CCSTOCK: 1
