SSB Auction : BlasTech, Rave Merrill, Ayden Cater, Darth Pikiran

[Danger Arceneau]

They were getting halfway through the auctions now. Things were still moving along. This time, it wasn't going to be about specific companies, but items that were a bit more personal in nature.

These were all personal auctions, along with a name brand most would know: BlasTech. Within moments, the auction was live, and the items revealed.

The key items in question would draw the eyes to the creation nurtured by Rave Merill.

Force-sensitive trees, particularly crossbreeds with Brylark trees, are gently raised in the resulting soil. Throughout their growth, the proprietary soil blend saturates the wood. Microcrystalline structures form through natural and Force-guided uptake methods. Meanwhile, the Force auras of the trees grow as influenced by the pulverized crystal and the Jal Shey imbuements.

The soil blend thus shapes both the physical development of the wood and the trees' Force auras. At the same time, a specially trained person uses a blend of Ithorian plant husbandry, Gesaril carving, and other skills to guide the trees' development. This process is repeated across generations, producing different grades of Ankarres wood. The end result is a unique crafting material comprising tough, Force-attuned wood interlaced with veins and nodes of Force crystal.

The altered trees and the wood itself have a calming and healing aura. Talismans, furniture, and other pieces of Ankarres wood retain these effects. The wood is named after the Ankarres Sapphire, a legendary healing crystal whose principles and physical presence influenced the growth process. The trees were grown under the Sapphire's aegis...

Rare indeed to be able to procure them here.

Rave Merrill
AUCTION

• Ankarres wood | One living Tree of Ankarres, equivalent age five years. Healing and calming properties; can help cure Sithspawn. Ideal for planting at medical facilities, Force academies, luxury properties and private sanctums. Starting bid: 1,000,000cr. Barter accepted. May be donated for a sufficiently worthy cause.

There was a look from Matsu as she was going over some of the things. The name Rave came and she was offering a tree... more so then that as she looked over some of the things offered from the alchemist... A tree was always something that could be worked with as she was thankful Sasori had been working hard in aurodium mines. She slid putting in the bid. <1,500,000 credits for the living tree.> The jedi master had some plans and looked over some of the others while the offers for some of those services would be great to have with a small smile n her face.

 

[Danger Arceneau]

Typically, Danger would wait before placing her own bids. She rarely did so for herself, but the items for this auction did perk her eye. One was the living tree. That would make a lovely addition at one of her gardens; or perhaps donated somewhere.

The other, the personal creation crafted by Merrill, well... that's another interesting one. Hmm...

Then of course, Mistah Cater.... His items sparked her interest.

So she would place the following bids:

• LOT G: Ankarres wood | One living Tree of Ankarres, equivalent age five years. Healing and calming properties; can help cure Sithspawn. Ideal for planting at medical facilities, Force academies, luxury properties and private sanctums.
• 1,550.000.00

​

• LOT I: One unique bespoke creation by Rave Merrill.
• 10,000,000cr.

• Mystery Lot K |
• 100,000,000 credits

 

[Vulpesen]

Vulpesen leaned back in his seat and happily placed his first bid. Maybe he wasn't the highest class of royal, but for the first time in his life, he felt he could truly compete in these auctions

Mystery lot J: 1,000,000 Credits
Lot L: 1,500,000 credits

 

[Matreya]

Lot G: 2,500,000 credits, and a crate of the Super Charged Betty Blasters

Lot K: 101,000,000 credits

Lot C: 7,000,000 credits

Damien input his bids, and leaned back. Slightly depressed to find that no one had bid on his items. It wasn't that he wanted the money, though he felt delighted to get it, it was the experience he yearned for.

He wanted someone to demand a alchemy enhanced death star that shot ice beams that could create ice ages!

Ostanes thought for a moment as he sat in the bazaar, thinking as the face or Uriel Escria tapped his fingers to his chin, dark skin smooth and gleaming with scented oil in his orange-red beard. One item in particular interested him in the most, and not for the item itself, but for the potential it represented in the end. The creation by his former employer, the architect of his downfall and ruin, the twisted wretch of a woman who had destroyed his mind and ripped from him half his life and more of work and effort. It was a chance, not at an unbelievably powerful creation... But the barest of slivers of hope that the woman might deliver it in person. What he would do upon that meeting, he wasn't sure truthfully. Try to kill her? Beg her to restore his mind? Rage at her until this obsession was finally purged? Who knew. But his psychosis compelled him, and so he entered a bid on the lot, all the while internally at conflict, whilst externally calm.

Start off slow first, don't tip your hand..

• LOT I: One unique bespoke creation by Rave Merrill.
• 15,000,000cr.

 

[Lief]

Adiara may have isolated himself from Galactic ongoings, but since landing on Mirial and seeing the plight of the people he'd been doing all he could to render aid. It was the medic in him, his long years of service to the Republic Medi-Corps made him unable to simply pass them over; a coward he may have been, but he was not without a conscience.

It just so happened that when he tapped back into Galactic affairs an auction took his notice on the holo-net. Well, he didn't have the time to get there and back with so many patients to care for... So instead he produced a holo-feed and handwaved himself there in all the jolted blue glory associated with holographic communications.

The specific lots he was interested in happened to be the Ankarres wood; He didn't need too much of it, so the tree itself was overkill, but lots F and H seemed appropriate.

So he placed a bid on both, stating that it was on behalf of the people of Mirial who had been so violently butchered on their homeworld. Hopefully there were none of those Primeval scum present, because the Mirialan's plight was due to their destructive cause.

He opened with a bid of 4,000 and 5,000 credits.

Matsu looked at the bids and for the most part everything was going nice and reasonably... well okay there were some things there she would have been interested in seeing bid on just to see them but she wasn't going to try and out bid some of the ones there. Or go crazy for a mystery item and drive up the price. No she could keep it reasonable on most of the things but the jedi master wanted that tree for her garden. It sounded the most interesting and next to the force sensitive one she found exploring the ruins it could become something of a nice place. They had been gathering some samples from around the galaxy like those flowers on Felucia as well as Endor. <Lot H: 9,000 credits, Lot E: 101,000 credits, Lot F: 9,000 credits and Lot G: 2,600,000 credits and an aurodium ingot.> She input her bid and well the real challenge she was suspecting was Danger if the trader wanted it but she could offer something else with it. <as well as one Qworlth Skaal acquired at auction>

 

[Lief]

Adiara frowned as the Jedi boosted up the price on the lots he wanted.

"10,000 credits on lots F and H, to aid the people of Mirial" he said, narrowing his eyes ever so slightly. The Jedi could have the damn tree, all he was trying to do was help some of the most needy people in the Galaxy at this moment in time. It was rare that Adi showed this side of himself, but now it was out for the world to see he wasn't going to simply back down.

Even if it meant cracking into savings he'd been setting aside for the past two decades of his life.

[Matsu Ike]

Matsu was looking at it and more of a bid on the two things, she had a grin on her face and thoughts coming about if this was going to charity as planned well the more credits spent would be better. Her fingers gliding ove the screen while she input the new bid. <Lot F: 12,000 credits and Log H: 12,000 credits> The more they had going the better and she was curious about some of the other things. At least Vulps was well getting one of those alchemy items he would and should like it. Such a service might produce dangerous things they would ahev to deal with in the future.

 

[Lief]

He ran a hand up through his hair.

When he said it was for the plight of the Mirialans had this Jedi thought he was joking? The indignation! And from a Jedi of all people? Those who claimed to want to render aid to the Galaxy. He'd had just about enough of their hypocrisy, the damn Republic were nothing more than a load of hot air, in his opinion, all they'd ever done was tear him from his family and then toss him aside.

"13,000 credits on lots F and H" he said, resisting the urge to raise his voice. He did, however, turn his holographic face toward [member="Matsu Ike"] and breathe through his nose. "Mirial has been devastated, Master Jedi, and the Ankarres Wood could work miracles on what few survivors remain. We're talking about the survival of an entire species here. I will match your bids, if I must, but know that you are gambling with the lives of innocent men, women and children who have lost everything they have. Must they lose their lives, also?"

Auction has ended.

Lot J

Ayden Cater's Silver lightsaber

While at first glance it is a simple lightsaber, no unique modifications or unusual gilding on the hilt, should any effort be made to meditate on the crystals within the lightsaber, an unusual pattern emerges. No amount of cryptography or translation can yield any information from the crystals. However, intense meditation will yield a vision of a holocron with what appears to be the lightsaber's crystal being inserted within it. It seemed to be a holocron that was particularly familiar to Ayden. Though where such a holocron is, none could say.

[member="Darth Pikiran"]

Lot K

Lymmahtun

A crystal sword of unusual weight, anyone sensitive to the Force can feel the power emanating from this artifact. Though one can draw great strength from it, it is not a weapon to be wielded casually. It seems to have a mind of its own, sometimes aiding or hindering usages of the Force. Without care or warning, it can lash back violently at the wielder. Such backlashes could be as simple as a headache, or could potentially even cripple a Master's ability to use the Force forever. To make matters worse, it is an artifact that was forged in part by Ayden Cater's own blood. As such, it is presently attuned to him and will resist attempts to make strong usage of it. Perhaps with time and communion, or further Sith rituals, it will be subjugated either willingly or forcefully and serve its new master.

 

[Lief]

After forking over the hefty sum of 26,000 credits, the likes of which Adiara would spend the next few years reclaiming on runs because he wasn't a business savvy individual like most who attended these functions, via his datapad, the holo-feed closed with a final flicker of blue. Back on Mirial, Adiara turned and walked back into the medical tent. At the same time he sent a comm to his crew, mostly droids though there was one organic, and sent them on their way to go and pick up the Ankarres Wood and Leaves.

He could waste no further time on the excursion himself, the auction had already taken him from his duties for too long.

Damien sent message to the one who won his auction:

It was my plan to have each item be bid upon individually, but it would seem that was not the case. Thus I leave them to you, you have 5 works that I will create with your observing. Contact when you wish to have them done. Likely I will do a single at a time, so think them over as the time comes.
