>>what Rasirhh and Maloidu mean?

It was asked on the Cleric forums what these are.

Rasirhh and Maloidu are traditional methods of crafting ceramics, passed down through generations of S'Kra Mur. Rasirhh is a simple style that impliments a clear glaze to make the artwork and natural imperfections of the piece stand out. Maloidu uses a glaze that cools faster than the ceramic, which causes dark 'cracks' to appear on the surface, making no two pieces alike. It comes in several varieties, all of which are represented in the bells available for sale from Priestess Vhastey. The 'large' style gives the piece very few cracks that are typically long and curving, the 'small' style creates numerous, tiny cracks throughout the piece, the 'edged' style is a subtype of the small style, in which cracks only appear at the lip of the item, and the 'royal' style uses a subglaze of another color which makes the cracks appear in an entirely different shade, usually gold or metallic.

Note: I did not create this lore; it is one of many excellent concepts that came before me, I simply wanted to get it out there. Additionally, you will be seeing more instances of these in future releases, as I am able to work them in.
