[1. Are verbs allowed to have the option to do them AT or TO someone or something in addition to the unmodified version if appropriate?]

1) No, afraid not. The EZScript system doesn't allow us to handle targets.


[2. If an item has inherent non-ltb verbs already can EZScripted verbs be added? I'm guessing no on this, but its possible there's exceptions out there.]
2) No. If it's already scripted, verby or special in some other way, you can't add the EZScript mechs to it.


[3. If I spend the points, is it possible to get an item EZScripted twice or more for 6+ verbs?]
3) Yes. You can have at max 10 verbs via the EZScript system per item. In terms of LTBs, you could use the same item 3 times for 9 verbs before hitting the limit.


[4. Is it possible to combine with the EZAtmo option? Or the AutoScripter?]
4) It's mechanically possible to combine it with an EZAtmo item. However, it may make the process more difficult to avoid conflicts in messaging and such. It'll probably be a case-by-case basis. It is not possible to use the Autoscripter and the EZScripted mechs on the same item.


[5. This one is kind of hard to explain, but are the verbs allowed to convey something about the character that's related to the function of the item without referencing the item in the message even though its the item that's granting the messaging? So for example, PULL HAIRPIN might read, "Evran carefully adjusts his hair, putting each strand in its proper place before giving it a final pat."]
5) It depends. For 95% of the cases, it'll likely be a 'no'. That sort of thing is what the SIGNATURE verb option is for. EZScripted and EZAtmo'd items are meant to showcase the item, whereas the SIGNATURE verb is to showcase you. Your particular example would best be done through SIGNATURE.


Lastly, I always encourage folks to email me with specifics about what they intend BEFORE they pick up the custom LTBs. I know how much they cost, and I do NOT want to see a situation where you get something and then we have to say no and you're stuck with it. There aren't refunds. There aren't exchanges. Please, email me first so we can work it out and you find out early if we can't (or if your item won't work or whatever else may arise). I'm working on some things to help with all of this, but it's still a bit off at this point.
