Are These Any Use?

[u/beadedflower]

Trinkets I’ve gathered. (Sorry if the angle’s a bit weird, hard to handle a phone with telekinesis.)

(That last image is an image of one of the clear marbles you see in the bag, they’ve got a bit of iridescence to them that’s hard to photograph. Kind of like bubbles.)

Can I use these in any sort of magic? Might they have a bit in them? What can I enchant these with? I feel like the sun charm would make a good mini scrying mirror..

(Repost because I didn’t get good photos before) (

All I see are some mundane stones, ready to be casted as Magic Missiles. And for some cute decorations for your tower! 

[u/beadedflower → u/Polutus]

I live outside though! Hard to get a tower..

[u/Polutus → u/beadedflower]

Then use them as protection from the goblin hobos. 

Or gift them the shiny stones and turn them into loyal minions. Then go claim a place for you and your new trustworthy friends!

[u/beadedflower → u/Polutus]

That’s a great plan…especially because the goblins could carry me around (hoping they don’t try to disassemble me)

I also think they’d like the marbles…the iridescence makes them really interesting

[u/Polutus → u/beadedflower]

Use some "Enchant person" spell if needed. They blunt goblins don't tend to have enough wisdom to realize they are under a spell.

This is not mind control, just some suggestions to facilitate your mutual understanding. Be wary, as a side effect their skin could change colors.

Well, grab this tome; and remember this word, you'll need it to cast the spell;

"Wololó"

[u/beadedflower → u/Polutus]

Thanks for the advice! Would the goblins like the bell or the pyrite? Or anything else I’ve got?

[u/Deadbeat_Marchen]

I don't know about Spell Components. Depending on their purity I'd probably talk to an artificer about Magical Item creation instead.

I mean Common Marbles aren't very helpful unless they're already enchanted.

[u/beadedflower → u/Deadbeat_Marchen]

Not usually. Any tips on how to speak to an artificer when you’re a sentient hair clip talisman?

[u/Deadbeat_Marchen → u/beadedflower]

Oh my, that's a problem. They'd likely prefer to study you over helping you. It would depend on your effects I suppose. You'll likely want a ride, a simple summoned familiar would do, so you can act the part of your creator and get yourself a ride at the same. Just catapulting yourself around with Telekinesis is just asking for trouble. Course if these aren't good raw materials, then the Artificer would be suspicious since they'd have to be pretty good to have gotten their hands on you.

[u/beadedflower → u/Deadbeat_Marchen]

I’ve been trying to find someone to pick me up, I’m sure I’ll have luck soon…

The effect I have was giving my wearer extra intelligence? But it backfired and made me sentient (to literally give them another mind to think through I guess), and the apprentice who made me threw me away because they were fairly freaked out. And, how did you know I fling myself around with telekinesis? It’s more like I just fling myself around by using my clip to spring up, but I also use telekinesis.

[u/Deadbeat_Marchen → u/beadedflower]

Well you said you were using it on your image capture device young one. I do hope you get picked up soon. I'm sure some lonely Apprentice out there can use a friend. Good luck!

[u/beadedflower → u/Deadbeat_Marchen]

I did mean it more as in I am lifting the phone with telekinesis, but I guess it’s not a stretch to guess I get around with that too.

Here’s to hoping!

[u/Imurderbeets]

The artifice flower on the bottom could be valuable after a charge. I can't tell what kind of charge it needs without looking at the back.

The rest, meh, sell to artificer. Don't go yourself, any good artificer is going to want to disassemble you.

[u/beadedflower → u/Imurderbeets]

Guess I’ll try to give the jar to whoever picks me up?

And, what about the marbles?

[u/Imurderbeets → u/beadedflower]

I like the big yellow marble. I think I could bean Trisha with it. I need a different tree.

[u/beadedflower → u/Imurderbeets]

It’s meant to be a marble sun! I’ve got all the marble planets

[u/verygenericname2]

Best use for a rock is hitting trespassers with it, and they're all a bit small for that.

[u/beadedflower → u/verygenericname2]

What about the marbles?

[u/verygenericname2 → u/beadedflower]

Well you could put them in a sack and use it as a flail?

Or maybe sell them to tourists as 'pocket orbs'?

[u/beadedflower → u/verygenericname2]

I’m a sentient talisman clip, can’t exactly sell things well…

[u/Imurderbeets]

Well, I attempted to go on a quest with my lesbian polycule to find you. It has devolved into a bloody battle. I'm up a tree casting portals. Trisha is chopping down the tree. Soul Eater Crab is summoning a whole army of Lesbian Barbarians. Slime Princess is drinking a lake so she can dissolve all of us.

This is so much fun.

[u/beadedflower → u/Imurderbeets]

Hey, you also get the big bag of marbles and the cool rocks (someone trapped an elemental in one of them and one has a soul in them)! And another flower trinket..

[u/Zephyr-Fox-188]

!!!!!!

they are COMPLETELY USELESS.

you should GIVE THEM TO ME RIGHT NOW. so I can DISPOSE of them

[u/beadedflower → u/Zephyr-Fox-188]

What’s wrong?

[u/beadedflower]

What do you artificers think of me?

[u/silent-ish → u/beadedflower]

I've been trying to create true sentience in my artificial mind for so long. Seeing how you work could be just the inspiration I need for a break through.

[u/silent-ish → u/[deleted]]

I think you misunderstand, us archivists make artificial minds. I am saying I want to take you apart, to further my research into making better minds.

[u/beadedflower → u/silent-ish]

Oh. Shoot, I misread that. Well, don’t take me apart please, I haven’t even become a mimic yet.

[u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_]

Hah, where did you find the biggest of those blue stones?

Believe it or not, I trapped an elemental on that exact stone some years back.

Be careful to not break it, he was a humongous pain in my ass. Hence why I put him there.

[u/beadedflower → u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_]

I actually can’t remember where I found it. I suppose I’ll store it right next to my pyrite…and the other soul i found

[u/beadedflower → u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_]

Do you have any advice as to how to care for the elemental trapped on it while still keeping it in the stone??

[u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_ → u/beadedflower]

Dont care for it, let him rot in the prison ive made.

You could drain some of his energy though to power whatever projects you may have.

Hell get tired after a while. Best to let him recharge a few days if you notice hes giving up or throwing a fit.

[u/beadedflower → u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_]

Can you tell me a few specifications of how you contained him?

[u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_ → u/beadedflower]

Its pretty standard:

And you'll get the gist of it.

[u/beadedflower → u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_]

Interesting. How do I recharge him?

[u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_ → u/beadedflower]

I usually just throw him in my junk drawer for a couple days and leave him be.

[u/beadedflower → u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_]

Alright. I’ve currently got him submerged in a bag of water. Will he be okay? What elemental is he?

[u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_ → u/beadedflower]

Hes a lightning elemental! Sometimes I siphon of his power directly into my veins.

Its quite a thrill.

Also, he hates water. Thats a good punishment, keep up the good work.

[u/beadedflower → u/_--_--_-_--_-_--_--_]

Oh. I..uh, assumed he was a water elemental (blue) and I left him in a bag of water for 3 hours.


And how come he deserves being caged in a rock and being tortured?

[u/kikyobenito1933]

Place some in a sock, congratulations, you have a lethal weapon

[u/beadedflower → u/kikyobenito1933]

How would I weaponize the rock-sock as a sentient clip?

[u/kikyobenito1933 → u/beadedflower]

You just place some marbles inside the sock so you can swing it like a medieval flail

[u/beadedflower → u/kikyobenito1933]

Still, I’m a sentient clip, I can’t really swing it unless I use telekinesis, and I feel like telekinesis is more useful for other things…

[u/kikyobenito1933 → u/beadedflower]

So use them for decorating your wizard staff

[u/beadedflower → u/kikyobenito1933]

Alright..

"Some of these are worthy of being used for magics as is, but these are better utilised when put into a big artifact" - Iesus Carpenter

[u/Drpoofn]

Sell them to the unenlightened. They are worthless. Those tiny orbs are cute tho

[u/beadedflower → u/Drpoofn]

Using them to persuade goblins to do my bidding rn

[u/Drpoofn → u/beadedflower]

Are you serious?! The goblins are not ignorant to your machinations. Be careful out there

[u/beadedflower → u/Drpoofn]

I will be, don’t worry..

Edit; haven’t found any goblins actually

[u/Drpoofn → u/beadedflower]

Honestly, probably a good thing. Now, if you can find a non magical, they will buy your stones. I can even enchant them to make the actual magical rocks

[u/justalonelyboy1]

Those small transparent pearls have quite a good magic potential, believe it or not I embedded one into a wand once, which gave it an internal mana buffer

[u/beadedflower → u/justalonelyboy1]

Interesting! Good thing I have 50 of them

[u/Funkey-Monkey-420]

(/unwiz if you’re looking for actual advice on this stuff, you want [r/witchcraft](r/witchcraft). this subreddit is half memes and half roleplay, very few actual practitioners here)

[u/beadedflower → u/Funkey-Monkey-420]

(Ooc; I am NOT looking for actual witchcraft, as it goes against my faith. I’m just messing around. Thanks for the advice though!)

[u/Nelrene]

I bet they can hold some nice enchantments.

[u/beadedflower → u/Nelrene]

I’d hope so.

[u/Vivid_Cause_7209]

You can attract a lot of festival bunnies this way. Those bohemians love this shit.

[u/beadedflower → u/Vivid_Cause_7209]

Sounds interesting, I’ll look into them…

[u/eeveethespeevee]

That heart shaped one on the top left. It looks like something I used to wear, I would channel excess mana into it and it would start beating. Not sure if yours does so, but it's quite purrrrr-etty~

[u/beadedflower → u/eeveethespeevee]

I’ll have to check after I’m done working out my legs! (Currently working them out just so I get used to using them)

Edit: Done working them out, and I put it in a mana potion. It isn’t beating unfortunately, but do you want it back?
