[Rharne] Wares

Alcohol
Rharne is known for its high-quality alcohol, and one would be hard-pressed to find a location in the city where there isn’t at least one bottle of liquor. Rharnians believe drinking should be a social activity and a way for people to connect with each other. Many a friendship or an alliance has been solidified over the pouring and sharing of drinks. There is no drinking age in Rharne, so children are raised from a young age to treat alcohol with respect and reverence (though most born-and-bred Rharnians have at least one story of getting accidentally wasted on liquor from their parents’ personal stash).

Rharnians who were born in the city tend to have a higher alcohol tolerance than the average mortal in other Idalosian cities. While Rharne does have its fair share of functioning alcoholics, Rharnians tend to view alcohol as a supplement to fun rather than the end-all-be-all. It is more commonly the visitors to Rharne who abuse alcohol and can’t hold their liquor.

Please see below for a comprehensive listing of alcohol that originates from Rharne. This list will continue to be updated as new types of Rharnian alcohol are developed.

Beer

Name Price (Single) Price (Bottle) Description Credit
Dark Tempest Stout 3sn per mug 2gn per flagon Dark in appearance and rich in flavour. This creamy and smooth oatmeal stout beer is the perfect accompaniment to a cold Cylus night. Rumour
Greedy John Stout2sn per mug1 gn per flagonNamed after the man who accidentally created the delicious Stout, John was a brewer who was rather fond of 'sampling the wares' and his greediness led to him passing out drunk one night and letting the malt be kilned for longer than normal, giving it a chocolate color. Not being one to 'waste' money buy starting the process over, he went on with the beer making and it was found that this batch had a surprising dark chocolate flavour. As a jest, a bottler said they should name it after the greedy man whose drunken binge led to the discovery of the new stout, and someone ran with it and now its a rather common stout found almost anywhere.Arwel Kyric
Mad Mountain Wheat Beer 3sn per mug 2gn per flagon A top-fermented beer brewed with a combination of malted barley and wheat. Light and pale. Perfect for quenching thirst on a hot Saun trial. Rumour
Roaring Blonde Lager3sn per mug2gn per flagon A smooth and refreshing pale lager. Great for those looking for something with little bitterness or aftertaste. Allegedly named after Ciaran Yv’ryn – a retired Thunder Priestess, former brawler, and wife to The Rolling Barrel’s owner. Rumour
Strongman's Pale Ale3sn per mug2gn per flagon A crisp and hoppy ale that leaves behind a lingering bitterness after every sip. Its high alcohol content can make even the most experienced drinker's head spin. Rumour
Yv'ryn Lager3sn per mug2gn per flagon The most popular beer at The Rolling Barrel. A copper-coloured lager with medium body and a slight malt sweetness. Named after the tavern's owner, Markus Yv’ryn. Rumour

Hard Liquor

Name Price (Single) Price (Bottle) Description Credit
Amber Blade Grog 3sn per mug 2gn per flagon An amber-coloured grog with a slight hint of apple. Apple cider, rather than water, is mixed with an inexpensive rum to spice up the taste. Great for those looking for something with a little more sweetness than the average beer or spirit. It's a cyclical drink that is only sold during the Cold Cycle in Rharne, after the apples have been harvested. Ambrosia
Moony 3gn per shot35gn per bottle A specialty drink crafted and served only in The Flying Moon. Tastes similar to brandy, but it is rumoured to be spiked with a drug that makes the drinker feel as though they are levitating. Rei
Netherborough Rum 4sn per mug3gn per flagon Netherborough is a rather dark rum that is typically mixed with a bit of black coffee to darken the look and offers the rather amusing result of a hyper drunk for those not used to ingesting caffeine. Because of the strength of the coffee typically used, the smell of coffee usually overpowers the smell of the rum and alcohol. 4sn per mug, 3gn per flagon on average, but prices vary on how much coffee costs Arwel Kyric

White Wine

Name Price (Single) Price (Bottle) Description Credit
Lightning Chard9sn per Glass7gn per Bottle A house wine that can be purchased at The Butcher's Block with flavors of grilled nuts, apple compote, and lemon zest. High in acidity and moderate in alcohol content. Rei

Red Wine

Name Price (Single) Price (Bottle) Description Credit
Stone Creek 6sn per Glass 4gn per Bottle An inexpensive red wine from the city of Rharne with enticing aromas and flavours of wild blackcurrant with overtones of black pepper and spices best served with red meat, wild game, and stews. Kingdom
Thunder Chianti 1gn per Glass11gn per Bottle A house wine that can be purchased at The Butcher's Block. It is crafted from special grapes grown in the Stormlands of Rharne and is tart, spicy, and herbaceous. Flavors of red fruits, bitter herbs, sweet tobacco, and smoke. Rei
Gyara 40gn per Glass 100gn per Bottle Gyara is a high class wine made by the citizens of Rharne. Its quality of smoothness coupled with its luxurious colour and blend make it a drink preferred by the upper class. The process to make the wine takes an extensive amount of time, making it one of the most expensive wines in the world. Kingdom

Specialty Wine

Name Price (Single) Price (Bottle) Description Credit
Starlight 1gn per Glass 12gn per Bottle Starlight is a popular wine widely enjoyed by the citizens of Rharne. The wine is made from Dusk Grapes that commonly grow in the nearby Stormlands. It possesses a transparent, deep indigo color, bearing somewhat iridescent and mirror-like qualities that cause a glass of Starlight to reflect its surroundings in full color when placed in the correct light. The flavor of this beverage reflects the sweet delicate taste of the grapes used in its making along with flavors of plums and pears. With its bright, fruity flavor covering its rather high alcoholic content, Starlight Wine is made especially popular at parties and celebrations. It is rather easy to become very inebriated after more than one glass. Sephira

[Rharne] Wares

Crandle
Name: Crandle

Product Type: Candle

Description: Cranberry-scented candles, called “crandles” by locals, have been sold in Rharne for generations. These thick pillar candles are 3 inches wide by 5 inches tall, and are made of a dark red wax combined with a cranberry fragrance.

The story goes that Ziell visited Ilaren during the first trial of Cylus several hundred arcs ago. He brought with him a heavy snow and a single cranberry candle. As the snow blanketed the ground outside of the Lightning Cathedral, Ilaren lit the candle and the two Immortals talked for breaks. It is said that despite the chill and the time that passed, no wax fell from the candle and Ilaren never once got cold. After Ziell left, the city experienced the most peaceful arc that Rharne has ever seen.

Nowadays, rumour has it that if a Rharnian buys a crandle and lights it at least once during each trial of Cylus, they will be gifted an arc of peace for their efforts. Crandles can be bought from the children who frequent the Pilgrim’s Ascent during the seasons of Zi’da, Cylus, and Ashan.

Re: [Rharne] Wares

"Lick"
Image
Name:"Lick"

Product Type: Specialty Liquor

Description: A special chocolate liquor, and favorite of serious practitioners of martial arts. It contains notes of chocolate, rum, and is mixed in with a trace amount of paralytic toxin or venom, just enough to dull the feeling in the knuckles of one's extremities.

Said to be a favorite of many Biqaj brawlers in Rharne, and elsewhere. However, the drink is not advised in excess, or in combination with any other form of medicines or brews.

It's mildly addictive.

Frequency: Common

Special Properties: Dulls the pain of physical impact, specifically with regards to one's own knuckles hitting bone. It also acts as a anti-inflammatory agent, limiting the swelling of joints associated with physical impact and activity.

Price: Tier 4+ (Variable quality)

Re: [Rharne] Wares

Rharnean
Volt-Wing Valance


Developed by Pig Boy, Idea taken shamelessly from Maltruism.
Type: Flying Mount and Wing armor

Short Description Given the prodigious tradition of Rharnean military to employ Storm Roc and other flying mounts, it has given rise to the need for special protection for these animals, which includes mount armor specially fitted to protect the wings as well as the torso.

Rharnean volt-wing valance is most often employed on Storm Rocs, in order to harness and protect against the frequent lightning storms that occur in Rharne's skies. Developed in Volta, the secrets of how to enchant or alchemificate the metal so that it resists and absorbs lightning damage, is a closely guarded secret among the alchemists and the Lightning Knights themselves.

While ordinary torso armor is available to all flying mounts, Rharnean volt-wing valance is restricted for purely military use. It is not permitted for ordinary citizens to fit their mounts with the valance, unless they have special privileges (Councilors or other high officials of Rharne), or else special dispensation from the Lightning Knights themselves to equip the valance.

Occasionally there will be feather-shaped plates, or even blades hidden amidst the frame of the wing-limb, so that the wings may be used also as weapons. However, this requires greater training for a mere beast to execute. At least excellent training is required for a winged mount to perform these winged attacks.

Found The methods of creating this armor are only known to smiths in the employ of the Lightning Knights. It is a jealously guarded secret, how they manage to alchemificate lightning resistance into the metal valance. It is illegal for non-Lightning Knights to make use of this product/mounted armor. Consult a Rharne mod if you wish to acquire some of this armor, but beware of the risks if you are not affiliated with the Lightning Knights.

Appearance See image above. Often enough, the valance are decorated with Rharnean colors and regalia.
Rarity Rare

Properties
Property 1 ~ protects the wings of flying humanoids and also winged mounts, whichever it's made for.
Property 2 ~ Can turn wings into deadly weapons or else powerful bludgeons, depending on the configuration of the valance.

Side Effects
Side Effect 1 ~ Less agility and pick up on the air. It takes greater wing strength and training in order to attain fast take off.
Side Effect 2 ~ Flight speed and duration is limited with the heavier valance.

How To Use Fitted like mount armor to a winged mount.

Status Illegal for all but licensed and trusted Rharnean Authorities.

Price Tier 8, but restricted. Please contact a Rharnean Mod if you wish to acquire some.

Re: [Rharne] Wares


Image
Name: Guardian Flower Dew
Type of Submission: Luxury ingredient
Description: On its own, the dew gathered from a guardian flower has a mild sweet citrus like flavor. But when added to other ingredients, it takes on those flavors and enhances them, intensifying the flavors of the ingredients they are added to as well as adding a mild sweetness. It is especially good when used in desserts, drinks, syrups, and candies or as a flavoring for alcohol. But it can be added to just about anything if you are looking to add a bit of sweetness to a dish. In addition to intensifying flavors and adding sweetness to a dish, Guardian Flower Dew has a warming and relaxing quality. It can soothe minor stress in the people who consume it, making them feel warm, relaxed, and safe. A little can go a long way with this ingredient, so it is rare that more than 1-3 drops need to be added to any dish.

Due to the way this ingredient combines with others and takes on their flavors, it takes someone with expert cooking/brewing or higher to bring out its full potential, but anyone with competent level cooking/brewing or higher can use it.

Mymic Feathers

Developed by Seira Shiryu
Type of Material: Feathers
Short Description: Alchemic reagent
Forum Location: Rharne
Toxicity/Hazard: none
Appearance: A mymic chick's feathers are short, white, and downy. The adult's body feathers are white. Their wings, tails, and crests are brightly colored. The adults' feathers have a shimmery sheen to them.
Rarity: Uncommon
RPG Properties
Property 1: the downy feathers from a chick can be used to create a potion that will give voices to those that do not have them, (mute, damaged voice, etc.) and alter existing voices (with no control over what their voice will sound like for the duration of the effects).
Property 2: the feathers of an adult mymic can be used to make a potion that will give the user the ability to mimic any voice and sound just as a mymic can.
Property 3: feathers gathered from molting birds are preferred because removing the feathers by force (from a living or dead bird) causes both the shelf life of the potion and the amount of time the effects last when the potion is used to be drastically reduced.
Side Effects: none
How To Use: to make alchemic potions
Status: Restricted due to the potential use for them in committing crimes. Healers can use them as needed and they can be used for entertainment during events held by taverns, theaters, and such.
Price These feathers become available at Tier 7, and if they are purchased outside of tier, they cost 1 WP per level below Tier 7 (for enough feathers to create 1 potion).

Rion Fur

Developed by: Seira Shiryu
Type of Material: Fur
Short Description: Rion fur is a luxury item that is extremely soft. It also has color changing properties.
Forum Location: Throughout Rharne
Toxicity/Hazard - NA
Appearance: Medium length shed fur that can be used in a variety of ways
Rarity: Common in Rharne, rare outside of Rharne
RPG Properties
Property 1: To use this material, shed fur must be collected for use since if it is taken from a dead animal (whether the Rion was killed for its fur or died of natural causes) the color changing properties are lost.
Property 2: While the fur is attached to the Rion, it changes color based on the animal's mood. Once shed, it continues to change color, but it is random. When used to make something that comes into contact with the skin of the wearer, the fur will change color in response to their mood if they do not have a strong will. But if they do have a strong will (expert discipline or higher) they can control the color changing aspect, to take any color they wish; once they have chosen the desired color, it will stay that color until they want to change it again, or it can change randomly if they wish.
Property 3: If the fur is not touching the skin of the wearer, it will change color randomly.
Property 4: It has alchemical uses.
Side Effects
Side Effect 1: no side effects
How To Use: The fur can be used to make various clothing, blankets, etc. or used decoratively in clothing, etc.
Status: Legal
Price: This becomes available at Wealth Tier 6. If purchased outside of Tier, it costs 2 WP for a small item (ex. gloves), 3 WP for a medium sized item (ex. a shirt/dress/etc.), or 4 WP for a large one (ex. a blanket, etc.)
