Happy [[Hollow Eve Festival 439|Hollow Eve]], folks!

As folks are still making their way to HE and picking up their gift, I wanted to put out some info about this year's special item.

===What is it?===
It's a special container, but different from last year's eddy. It has three key draws that make it stand out:
# It's general worn, so it won't compete with precious back/belt/etc slots.
# It functions like one of the "hold anything" containers, and can hold any 5 items regardless of size/weight.
# It allows you to gain a (single) BONUS inventory slot to the location of your choosing, with some restrictions. Need another belt slot? You got it! Oh no, but there's a fancy ball this weekend and you want to show off ANOTHER fancy ring -- no worries, you can easily swap it over for the event!

You cannot bonus armor, weapon, brawling gear or tail slots. Bald folks can't bonus the two hair slots. If you pick a slot today, but decide you want a different one tomorrow, you can remove the bonused one and swap it to the new one. You can only bonus a single slot at a time from this gift. There is a 24 hour cooldown on this swapping.

===Neat! How do I swap slots? Tell me more!===
You can {{com|STUDY}} your container when you get it for some information on how this works. Primarily, you'll {{com|WHISPER}} to it for the list of slots and to select one, and then {{com|ADJUST}} it to activate or deactivate the bonus. Once active, it's a "set it and forget it" type thing -- you do not need to keep the container with you to maintain the extra slot. Remember, though -- you cannot change the slot without the container, so don't lose it!

You cannot deactivate a slot if you're wearing too many items there for the new reduced limit.

The {{tt|STUDY}} will also tell you if it's in cooldown or not.

===What if I forget which slot I've bonused?===
Good news! We've updated the {{tt|INV SLOTS}} command to mark the slot you have bonused in case you forget! You'll see "(+)" next to a bonused slot.

===Ok ok. How do I get it?===
Head on over to [[Saidakyp of Andreshlew]] (the alteration and registration place!) and look for Tailor Ichea. You can {{com|ASK}} {{tt|ICHEA FOR GIFT}} to get your base item -- it's randomized for everyone! If you wish to customize it, {{tt|STUDY ICHEA}} to get started on that process -- customizing is done after you have the initial base version. Take advantage of the registrar next door to register it once you're happy with it!

===What if I want it to look different later?===
While nothing is set in stone until it releases, the current plan is for Ichea to remain at / return for future Hollow Eve events, so you'll be able to re-customize your container in the future. There may be a plat cost to customize them after this year, though, so try out a few styles while it's free to do so this year!
