Laelia's Guide to Albredine Rings


There's two kinds of albredine rings, albredine crystal rings and colorless/colored albredine rings.
There are two kinds of albredine rings:


*[[Item:Albredine crystal ring|Albredine crystal ring]]
;Albredine Crystal Rings
*:Makes direct contact with another albredine crystal ring wearer.
:To use an albredine crystal ring, both you and the other person you are trying to speak to have to be wearing one. They both must be activated. Wear the rings and you'll get an uncomfortable buzzing in your head. This is a sign that it is activated.
*[[Item:Colorless albredine ring|Colorless albredine ring]]
*:Works as a private gweth network by sending messages to those wearing a ring of the same color.
*:As of 34 Dolefaren 415 (4/7/2015), the range is global.


===Physical Description===
:There is a minimum circle requirement for the use of an albredine crystal ring, likely in addition to other stat requirements. Someone who does not meet these requirements receives a message saying Nothing seems to happen, instead of a buzzing in your head. This precludes [[Commoner|commoners]] from using an albredine crystal ring.
Per GM [[Persida]]: ''Albredine is a material similar to glass, but always magical. It has strange properties that allow for mind-to-mind communication.''


==Notes==
:They act something like a private [[gwethdesuan|gweth]]. To use them, you THINK TO [person] and they'll hear your message. This is useful as it will be a way for you to send private messages to your friend/ally/enemy. They have limited charges. I'm not sure if they crumble to dust, but I believe that most likely it just needs to be repaired.
*11/11/2016 Both types of albredine rings no longer function to send thoughts. They are now considered fluff items. Their function has been taken over by [[gwethdesuan]]s as part of [[Post:ESP_2.0_on_11/11/16_-_11/10/2016_-_16:41|ESP 2.0]].

;Albredine Color/Clear Rings
{{cat|Magical items}}
:Colorless/colored albredine rings are a lot more complicated, but much more useful. I'll explain this best I can. They're kind of like a private group gweth.

:Everyone in the realm has their own color albredine ring. It's hard to say exactly how you get the color. The colors can be anywhere from whorled white to banded silver, obsidian black, etc. There's a lot of different colors.

:These rings are ALWAYS on, so as long as you don't use up all the charges, you can hear everyone else that's using the same color ring as you. It is rare to get a ring that's the same color but not tuned on purpose to another group's, so you can be pretty sure that your thoughts are only going to your albredine ring group. As long as someone's wearing a ring tuned to your color, they can hear your group's thoughts.

:As soon as you put on a COLORLESS (UNTUNED) albredine ring, it shifts to your personal color. The color of an albredine ring can be cleared by tapping it with a knife, and it will shift back to colorless. However, this will not untune it. (Once a ring is first attuned, the color cannot be changed by this method. It has to be attuned with the use of another colored ring)

:To tune two rings together, one must be colorless and one must be colored. Tap the rings together and the colorless one should turn the color of the first. If you tap two rings together that are different colors you'll probably melt them both. *grin* You can have as many rings in a group as you like.

:After that, when both people wear the rings, whenever one person TAPS their ring, they have about 10 seconds to send a "group" thought, that only goes to the people in their group, by thinking. These rings do not interfere with regular gweths, but it's possible to send out to the general gweths if you've got both those on and the albredine ring on. You'll know if you've sent to the albredine ring if you see your own message and a little "[group]" message in front of your message.

These rings do wear out after about 100 taps, but they can be recharged by someone with over 100 in MD. Just FOCUS on the ring and it'll be recharged. After that there's a possibility of it becoming untuned (and shifting to your color), after which you'll have to find the other person(s) wearing your color ring and have them retune it for you. There's also the chance that if you take your ring off and try to put it back on, you'll get the message "It just won't fit." If this happens, hold a metal weapon in your other hand and you'll be able to put it on. This is really really weird, but it works, heh.

These have a range about on par with the "chorus" channel (kyanite, sjatmal, and lasmodi), so they go pretty far, about southish part of Riverhaven to the north part of Crossing. You'll know you're almost out of range if you hear "[group faintly]". It's also dependant on your [[concentration]] like gweths are, so you might get the message that you need more time to concentrate.

One last thing, don't use any language that you wouldn't on the regular gweths, it's monitored the same.

These rings also burn out turning to a brown color. You'll have to get a new one at that point.

Summary:

*To shift an untuned colorless albredine ring to your color, put it on. (Remember, once you put on an untuned ring, it will be tuned to your color permanently. It can only be changed to another color by tuning it to another colored ring)
*To clear a ring of its color, hold the ring in your left hand and a metal weapon in your right. Then, TAP the ring.
*To tune a colorless ring to a colored ring, hold the colored ring in your right hand, then TAP the ring.
*To think to those wearing your color ring, tap it and think in the next 10 seconds.
*To fix a non-working albredine ring, FOCUS it.
*To put on a tuned ring that's not your color, wear it while holding a metal weapon.
