Again, ask Rini about it. It´s a feral, fearl should know if ther ferals like practical things or funny things or unique things or don´t care what it is as long as its shiny.

This image (and description) will be PMed to Thalar to accompany an advice to An'jhali reminding her about the plan to give all the Ferals (and Miraul in particular) a reward for helping us once we get back to Ama'varde:
"An'jhali- About rewarding the Ferals, We have some suggestions..." (65)
PS: I will post the content of the PM to Thalar here for public viewing once it is ready to be sent off...

Good Day to you Boss-lady!
I just wanted to take this chance to expand of the some-what vague advice posted in the LA today. An'jhali had already given approval for some sort of gift to be made as part of a reward ceremony in recognition of the ferals (Mirual especially) service to our clan, and was simply awaiting designs/suggestion for how it should happen. The matter has been getting discussed in the 'Conference Hall' here: viewtopic.php?f=75&t=16599 - Discussion cover a few different variations on the idea, with the prevalent theme being to give them something pretty and shiny, as that would appeal more to the Ferals than anything we could/would do for other Drow. The only design that reach completion was my own 'mini-statues' design as depicted here: viewtopic.php?f=75&t=16599&start=30#p731528 - The original plan was for the statues to be solid and entirely decorative, but I adapted the plan to provide a small degree of functionality by turning the statues into small jars, just big enough to hide a small gem of some coins... Basically, they are now shinies that can be used to hide other shines!- Now, the image shows them in 'real-life' scale (given that the paper is an A4 sheet, that makes the jars about the size of a 300ml soda-can). This means that the amount of materials (even the gold and silver 'leaf') needed to create these object will be a very small amount, and thus, not likely to need any sort of separate action in the EA to make (given the time limitations in place too), so while entirely 'auto-ing' their creation might seem 'too easy' it hardly breaks the 'realism' of the setting (It could be implied that the items were made while An'jhali and the warriors were away). Following is a direct link to the image hosting site as well as a re-write of the descriptive info on the image:

Thank you in advance for your time, and if you have questions, you know where to find me,
