{{ShopDescription|roomname=Boggle Blast
|desc=Cheerful paintings of pumpkins decorate the metallic walls, complemented by bright orange origami spheres hanging from the pipes on the open ceiling. In the room's center is a solid glass counter, and three prize boxes are prominently displayed underneath the glass. Set in the room's northern wall are seven doors that are painted black, burgundy, blue, yellow, orange, green, and purple. You also see a bucket of pumpkin-colored viscous gloop, a large pumpkin-hued arch and a Gor'Tog pumpkin farmer.}}

The pumpkin farmer beams at you "Want to try yer luck? It's real easy, all ya gotta do is take the pumpkins and fire them at those pesky little boggles dancing around in the game rooms. If ya get a high enough score, ya win a prize! Right now I'm chargin 200 dokoras to play, just GIVE me the money and I'll get ya set up."

To play: {{com|give}} {{tt|farmer 200 dokoras}}

==Overview of the Game==
Once you give the farmer his money, you are taken to another room with the boggle and some pumpkins. READ SIGN in the room for more details, but you {{com|get}} {{tt|pumpkin}}, {{com|load}} {{tt|SLINGSHOT}}, and {{com|FIRE}} {{tt|SLINGSHOT}}. If you get enough points with your 5 pumpkins, when you return to the foyer the farmer will give you a random prize. The better your score, better the prize. A perfect score is 50, but any score of 30 or higher has a chance of winning a grand prize. There is also a chance when firing the slingshot to have a catastrophic failure which will result in ''you'' being hit in the head with the pumpkin instead. While the 1st failure will not be mortal, continued play without receiving healing may lead to death.

The [[Slings skill]] is extremely helpful for winning this game from minimizing (possibly removing) the chance to receive a head wound during game play to keeping your scores above 30 so you receive better prizes.

==Snow Elves==
{{ShopDescription
|roomname=A Cultured Attire, The Snow Elves
|desc=Painted white walls accented by touches of blue and grey give the room the feeling of being surrounded by drifting snow. Vivid landscapes hang upon them, displaying images of hunts with war mammoths and other fierce creatures, while densely embroidered needlework in shades of red and black cover the small settee in the middle. On one wall hangs a sign which reads, "Welcome," in large letters. You also see an instrument rack with a pale wiirwood frost dulcimer with ivory snowflake inlays on it, a narrow wooden door, a Snow Elf hunter mannequin with several things on it, a brass-banded cedar chest positioned near the feet of the bridal mannequin and a Snow Elf bridal mannequin with several things on it.

A hanging sign reads:
{|
|<pre>"Jaihaltu aldi Medenen Eshicani, taida ajacan inoren taipeni ahalmisai aurcitu eshicani nime alorisai ton sentitu oien.
Aron ishartaroi cabiren agun olaman umbunorani inoren yarisheni darm bir baga tonen galwen medena,
emma yangija sataroi sogan eshicani we maleta rach ajacani."

Your knowledge of Ilithic translates that as
"Welcome to the Cultured Attire, where Elves of all clans may find garb to make them feel at home.
We hope someday to provide people of all races with expressions of their traditional culture,
but at this time offer only clothing and armor for the Elven kindred."</pre>

==Description==
Composed of rock, the gargoyle is a statue come to life at the hand of an ambitious mage. Mostly irate at the world and grumbling to itself about anything from the state of the Elven nation to the weather, the gargoyle does not look so much inclined to fight as it is to curl up in a corner and look frightening. Still, it knows its task as a protector of its creator's domain, and will do its best to keep invaders from treading on its turf.

==In Depth==
Very similar in most respects to [[granite gargoyle]]s, quartz gargoyles are more challenging foes. They have higher attributes, are more skilled combatants and seem to hit significantly harder than their granite kin. 

===Area Information===
Quartz gargoyles inhabit the [[Talas Sagamat]] mine in {{rmap|150| Fang Cove}}. The area is indoors so they start advancing at pole range and usually spawn in packs of two. The area is only accessible by [[Estate Holder]]s. Although non-estate holders can join the [[sea mammoth]] to Fang Cove, only estate holders may leave the building where the mammoth docks.

===Skill Caps===
*Defensive skills in the high 160s to low 170s lock relatively quickly yet allow for safe mining even when engaged with four in melee. Mining dangers pose the greater threat. (08/02/2016) 
*Weapon skills at 140 hit more often then not. (08/02/2016) 
*Weapons and defenses slowing at ~185 ranks. Soft caps at 190 ranks, after that mindstate seldom went above dabbling (1/34). (06/24/2014) 
*Skinning: Mostly fails on skins with single arrange at 135. Consistent perfect skins (full arrange) and quick locking at 250. (08/02/2016) Still locks skinning with arranging at 280 (2/14/17) Full arrange + skin teaches slowly at 305 (3/25/17) 
*Tactics: Hard cap at 243 with no soft cap - (34/34) at 242; (0/34) at 243 (05/16/2017). 
*Locksmithing: Boxes are tough at 137.
*Ranger with 110 locksmithing/28 refl/28 agi and using HOL having no trouble with careful picking. (12/1/2016)
*Empath, Stealth @ 150 moving uber slow, not really even worth it.

===Special Attacks===
NONE. 

===Special Defenses===
*{{com|appraise}} {{tt|CAREFUL}} info: NONE. 
Quartz gargoyles are immune to physical stuns. 
Unlike their granite breathen, quartz gargoyles are not immune to [[spell::Ice Patch]].
