What?
You enchant the ore. You smelt the ore. You take the bars and forge armor.

Enchanted the ore with Demoni? It'll be medium armor and have the special effect of resisting defilement, but Demoni V.armor is slightly weak.

Am I missing something?
Nah, I was just confused because you said that the ore was to make MAGI armor, Zuko has medium armor, and Bazyli has MAGI armor. So I thought that the ore would be useless for me. But maybe I just misread it...

"What the heck?!" My first reaction is to head back for the door and reach for my crossbow as I see a real ghost (or ghost-like being) appear in front of us. But as it makes its offers and Zuko starts to talk business with the spirit like it were the most normal thing in the world, I calm down a bit.
Still highly suspicious, I turn towards the being and ask: "Who... or what are you? And what are you doing here in this crazy tomb?"

"Ah! Of course, allow me to introduce myself! I am Varic Vanderfell Various the Hundredth!! Call me Varic. Now YOU look like a smart women, never deal in shady business, eh?"
He waits a bit but you just stare, slightly creeped out.
"That was, uh, a joke. Shady? I'm a shade? Oh, whatever! I'm here to sell, eternally bound to do so in many fine locations in this lovely Highlander's Tomb! Gotta say, in my humble opinion the Highlander is an asshole. When I told him I'd serve him for the rest of my life, that was what I meant! MY LIFE! THIS IS MY DEATH AND I HAVE TO USE IT TO SERVE HIM!"
The shade starts ranting incoherently and scratches at the back wall like a maniac.
He regains composure extremely quickly, and like he never was mad he says
"Haven't seen him since his last outing. Who knows, maybe he died? I'll be seeing him soon enough then! Anyways... your purchases? What is it you desire? HAVE THE CEIL!?"

EDIT: to Zuko "Ah, you have 90 CEIL? No helmet I know of that is worth that PITIFUL amount!"

"O...kay. whatever you say, Varic."

I back away a few steps and whisper to the others: "Zuko's instinct was right. This ghost-guy is seriously messed up, but I don't believe he is dangerous. Let's use the welcome opportunity to stock up on equipment and supplies, if he really has anything of use to us."

My suggestion: Let's pool our money and see if we can buy some useful stuff we all benefit from.
Buster Ball Blast aimed at the Guardian's Staff!

Perhaps I can disarm him!
One question, seiromem! The Golden Statueâ„¢ is for the Contractor or I can sell it?

EDIT: Okay, so how much is this statue valued for?
Seiromem
I would have more makerscore If I did things.

You do whatever you wan with what you got.

Also, y'all have a total of 750 CEIL.

EDIT: Ask.
"So, Varic: We found this Golden Statue a few halls back, how much do you think this is worth for?"

"Golden? Statue? Amazing! Astounding! How big is it?"
Zuko presents the statue.
"IT's, uh... not THAT big. Could be bigger, but that's with all things. I'd say a modest 5000 CEIL should cover it, yeah?"
"5000 CEIL!?!?!? Ahem! I mean... That sounds like a good deal, I'll take it!"

"Now, I was looking to make an Essence Intrincate Enchant in order to upgrade my sword's level, but I don't have a spare POWER STONE. So do you think you have one you can sell me and use it to make the enchantment?"

"OHoho! Then it's settled!" Varic Lunges, grabs the statue and swallows it. He then places both of his arms on the Altar and starts... puking? Puking CEIL!?
"UGHGUHGULLLAALALALALLALLLL" Is what he yells as hundreds upon hundreds of CEIL coins fall out.
*UUUUUURRP* "Ahhh, what a load off! Well... good luck carrying this! UNless... you want to buy? TELL ME YOU WANT TO BUY!"
...
"Oh-ho! Well then lemme get this straight, you want to upgrade the enchantment level of your sword? Right now it's at... level two, so to get it to level three I'll need 500 CEIL. Sound good, sir?"
"Sounds good to me! Do it, Varic!"

"Now, what helmets did you had for sale?"
Nothing phases you, you weirdos.
Look who's talking... >:)

P.S. : Also, Zuko comes from Hell. He has seen WAY more disturbing things than that...
"That was certainly interesting...anyway, do you sell any weapons?"
Hm. I still don't trust this, uh, Shade? Did he call himself that? He seems rather shady. don't look at me like that I HAD to
Still, we should take advantage of this opportunity...
"Well, could you fix the holes in my armor? Do we need any materials or anything for that?"

His name is Phase, not Shade! How often do they have to tell you?
...Oh, wait, wrong forum game... ;)


---------------

Initially, I am entirely grossed out by the creature's literally puking up money and instinctively jump backwards a few steps. But at the sight of such an enormous heap of money, other instincts take over.

"Holy crap, that's a lot of coins! So, that means there are 1250 CEIL for each of us, right?", I say as the unsettling spark in my eyes reappears and I hastily start picking up hands full of coins from the ground.
"Good, good, do you have some powerful crossbow bolts? Oh, and an new hatchet would be useful. And perhaps some medical supplies?"


P.S.: Can a crossbow be enchanted as well? And if so, how would that work?

"Enchantment time!" Yells the shade as his arm extends and grabs Zuko's sword from him. "Now let's take this thing, and THESE" he says as he pulls out a mess of essence and runes "and PUT EM ALL TOGETHER!" He places the sword on one circle on the altar an the essence and runes on the other. "BALABOOM-KAZOOM!"
He yells as a flash of light blinds everyone momentarily, and the essence and runes are gone- the sword is all that remains, and Zuko can feel it's new power.
"Yeah, well... just take 500 from the pile we have going on." Says Zuko while he admires his upgraded weapon.
"Will do my boy! Now then..." His mouth opens agape and he starts to suck in ceil. He stops perfectly after 500 cubes had been gathered.
"Anything more, how about your friends, eh?"
...
"Helmets! Indeed, with 5250 CEIL I have this FINE collection for you..."
He hurls 5 helmets.
"Lesee, this one is a moonscaled plated iron helm, that there is an Onyx Helm- very strong- and this here is a Quillard feathered hat! If you get bonked on the head with a spell, it'll do no damage and go into the quillard's feathers! They you'll find your breath very much enchanted! One good bellow an you're sure to spit out some fire! Or ice, whatever happened to be the element of the magic you were hit with. Anyways, the other two are Valkanite! One was enchanted with Water and the other with Air!"
...
"Fix up yer armor? Yeah sure, it's quartzine? That'll be 200 CEIL!"
...
"Weapons? Well yes, but that's a very general category, can't go puking up all manners of Morningstars, Axes, sword and crossbows! What are you looking for in particular?"

EDIT: What timing Neversilent! Lemme just answer your questions...

"Crossbow Bolts! Well, I have everything under the bricks I can think of, Onyx, Quartzine, Valkinite, Ohoho! As for hatchets, same goes for the bolt, what metal would ya like, eh?"
...
"Medicine? I've got everything from potions to salves!"

You can enchant anything. Even a rock.

(huehuehue)

"Ah, yes, please fix these holes in my armor then, if you would. And if my companions do not mind... perhaps I could have that Quillard Feather Hat as well? Or would one of you rather have it?" (I just want some sort of way to deal damage OTHER than this longsword... I kinda feel like the most offensively weak character in our group... probably because I am. No Attack Skills, that's me!)
