|Dedue {{DWUser|sworndevotion}}
|2026-01-25
|Medium Treat (Special Treatment)
|Well. In more pleasant(?) additions, Dedue will discover a beautiful <nowiki>'''</nowiki>music box<nowiki>'''</nowiki> sitting atop one of his other belongings. When its mechanism is wound, it will play a melody from home. Lovely. It also causes anyone who hears it to become <nowiki>'''</nowiki>incredibly drowsy<nowiki>'''</nowiki>. It doesn't force them asleep, however, it just makes the prospect of it particularly appealing. Even people who shouldn't be capable of sleep, or don't require it- they will still find themselves craving a snooze.
The drowsy-effect is only applied while the music is playing. When fully wound up, it has enough energy to play for around three minutes. The effect does work on the deaf, or anyone deliberately plugging their ears, suggesting that the melody is supplementary, rather than required.
If any listeners of the box do fall asleep... they're asleep. It is perfectly normal sleep, and they will rouse through normal means.
The treat money arrives with the box, neatly arranged in a circle around it. Convenient!

|Eli {{DWUser|viciousabyss}}
|2026-01-27
|Luxury Treat (Special Treatment)
|What is waiting for Eli where he's staying is... a small cardboard box. It has a picture of a bird on it, along with some unreadable text.
Inside is a mechanical songbird. The same one as was printed on the outside. 'Mechanical' is sort of pushing it, as it looks more plasticy than anything, and only the beak has a hinge. It's 'perched' on its stand (its legs are fused with it). It doesn't look anything like the birds on Pathos.
Once removed, it will begin to speak. At first, its words don't make any sense- it's speaking an entirely different language. But the voice is cheerful and friendly. After a couple days of existing around ambient conversation, it will abruptly switch to the local language.
''Hello! Would you like your daily fortune?'' If it receives any sort of affirmative, it will proceed with a couple lines suggesting something that will happen that day, or something to watch out for. There is one fortune available per day. Whoever agrees to hear it first gets it. The fortunes vary from being appropriately vague, to alarmingly specific, but they are '''accurate'''. The contents are usually mundane happenings, but can strike on more important events as well.
Apart from that, the bird will also answer questions about the weather ('answer', at least; a harsh static will be the only reply), or the time (apparently it is always 9am). It is fairly simple, and won't respond to other requests.<blockquote>Is the birdy a that's so Raven style prediction, where any attempt to avoid the forecasted event will lead to it happening anyway, or is it possible to avoid/change the fate predicted once it is known?</blockquote>It is possible to avoid the bird predictions! It's more of a forewarning, in that sense, providing a twig of information that can be potentially acted on. There's no 'try to avoid this, and you only made it happen harder!' kind of trickery.

|Hugo {{DWUser|totalize}}
|2026-01-28
|Luxury Treat
|<blockquote>That is, Hugo has been working on establishing an art gallery <small>(and he obtained the building through totally legitimate means don't worry about it)</small>, so let's fill it! He'd be looking for pieces from Karteria and Kelesis both (or anywhere else!), and with a focus on things he could potentially sell to the upper classes. If the mods are so inclined, feel free to give me some specific pieces, but I'm also more than happy to just make them all up myself.
Also points cost-wise, truly flexible here, so whatever seems good to y'all! Like, you can take every point I just banked if you're so inclined, that's all good with me 👍</blockquote>What is an art gallery without art to fill it... that very legitimately acquired building needs pieces!
For a general estimate... let's say that per luxury (100) treat, Hugo could obtain 6-12 paintings. The variable number permits a variation in perceived value. Their total value would be roughly equivalent to what a character could receive from the plain luxury money option.
The style and subject of the pieces is up to you!
In ''addition'', however: there arrive a couple of paintings that don't match anything in Karteria or Kelesis (and nothing on Orexis or Eparsis, either). They illustrate a city, were it comprised of nothing but viscera. Or at least, it's sort of city-esque, with shapes that suggest towers, high-rises, archways, streets and signs and shops... but it's all been grown over with flesh.
As these pieces are unlikely to be sold, they're just a sort of 'bonus'(?), and don't count towards the 6-12 treat.<blockquote>oh that’s horrible thank you
Let’s go with 600 points worth of art to make it a good opening and! For the Viscera City paintings, are these all by the same artist, or are they all different? Is there anything Hugo could find out  further about them?
If not that’s okay!! He would just be like “what” and want to look into it haha</blockquote>That should be a fantastic opening to Hugo's gallery! And as he continues to receive more Flesh Art with every purchase, he could almost open a whole terrible wing in this one theme.
There's no signature anywhere on the paintings, but the style drifts over time. It could be the work of one person, experimenting in the ways of capturing this peculiar cityscape, from the realistic, to the baroque, to the abstract. More likely, it's the work of a collective, inspired independently by the setting, while imagining it in uncannily similar ways.
Some of the paintings clearly capture the same street, only in different styles. But there are plenty of unique vistas. Graveyards, blocky apartment buildings, playgrounds. All of it comprised of flesh.
If one compared them to the cityscape of Karteria or Kelesis, there wouldn't be anywhere in either city that matches it (even when accounting for 'this building, but meat'). If this city exists outside of the artist(s)' imagination, it's no where the Augmented have been.

The replica might be a ''little'' off from how it was originally written- not in the accuracy of its contents (it's not making up anything, or changing how things went), but in formatting, like the 'file' hadn't been imported corrected. A bit odd, but the information is still there, at least.

|Vanitas {{DWUser|bleude}}
|2026-02-06
|Small, Medium, Luxury and Luxury (Special Treatment) Treats
|<blockquote>- Small Treat: Asterisque flowers & seeds (from home)
- Medium Treat: Tracker earrings
- Luxury Treat: Some Chasseur's ability-enhancing drugs (from home)
- Luxury Treat: Money x 2
- Luxury Treat: Mod's Choice?! It's his birthday on the 7th! (Just no sweets... he hates sugar, the sourpuss haha)
- Luxury/Limited/UR Treat? Would it be possible for Vanitas to gain an astermite-powered carriage from home? Along the lines of an old school car like this? It wouldn't be fast or efficient like a modern car, but I'm obsessed with the idea of Vani causing vehicular chaos on the tiniest scale by putt putting around town with friends haha;; No worries if it's too out there, I totally understand.</blockquote>Vanitas ''could'' receive (a replica of) his carriage as a luxury treat, though it would inherently come with some drawbacks. As astermite doesn't exist as a resource in the setting, it could arrive pre-modified to run off of Katalyth (how safe...), or electricity- or it could turn up unmodified and immobile. (And in either case, could be modified further by characters to work off of other forms of energy.)
More crucially, maybe... cars aren't legally permitted on the roads of Karteria. It would be difficult to avoid getting caught with it, and having it either impounded, or otherwise told to keep it off the streets. If the carriage has any sort of off-road capability, no one would be able to stop him in the wilderness....
(Kelesis does not use cars either, but has no rules against them. As long as Vanitas wasn't trying to run anyone down, he'd probably be permitted to drive his carriage around. He'd just have to get it to Kelesis first. Kelesis will also need to survive in something of its current state.)
The earrings and money arrive safely in his room, there's no trouble there.
As objects can't turn up from home, the flowers and seeds couldn't be of the exact same variety. If that's alright, a similar-looking species would find its way into his possession.
The same would apply to his ability-enhancing drugs. A knockoff, store-brand variety of his magic steroids would be what turned up for him. It might act somewhat differently as to what he's used to, but it could have a similar effect.
For the unique luxury treat: Vanitas will receive a large and luxurious blanket. It's luxurious in the sense that it's made of a fine wool-like material, soft and durable. Surprisingly durable; this thing could be used as armor in a pinch, being practically immune to being torn or set on fire (it is ''not'' resistant to being stained). It's also large in the sense that it could comfortably swaddle at least two people without needing to quarrel over amounts (or quite thoroughly burrito an individual).
It is also printed with an artistic(?) representation of Vanitas' own face. All over it. It's the pattern. It's also not a very ''good'' representation, as though whoever had been behind it had only ever seen him at a distance, or heard a vague description of him.

|Takasugi {{DWUser|takasugi}}
|2026-02-17
|Luxury Treat
|<blockquote>going out on a limb here, but a replica of an object from home in the shape of Proto Arahabaki, his robot that's about 10-ish feet tall and lets him sit in it. I don't even know what I'm entirely planning to use it for yet, but if it's possible... maybe it can sit in the car graveyard, or with Patho-Gen, and... be devoid of its major abilities like shooting missles and a billion bullets or whatever. Unless? It's the Special Treatment Request for a special boy? If not, more money. (100 pts).</blockquote>Takasugi may receive his knockoff Proto Arahabaki, crammed as awkwardly as possible somewhere in his residence. Or nearby, if he doesn't want to like. Dismantle his home to get it out of the living room.
It will sadly be unable to shoot anything, but parts will light up and make the right noises instead. It might also have a difficult time moving, if Takasugi can't power it himself, or if it can't be made to run off of local forms of energy... and Karterians would not take well to the sight of a robot (they're not sure if it qualifies as a car but it's probably breaking SOME kind of rule) gallivanting down the street. Just sitting in the car graveyard, or stored somewhere else would draw less alarm.
On the seat of his robot throne is all of that money.

|Small Treats

* (25) A small rucksack of shells, sea glass, and sand dollars from a certain nation in Teyvat (Fontaine); and again, also able to split between a handful of people...
* (25) A small bag of nuts, bolts, and strange mechanical parts from a certain nation in Teyvat (Fontaine); basically, it's a shopping list of Wriothesley and Neuvillette's thank-you gifts.The knickknacks are doohickey sized.</blockquote>Something is reacting to Wriothesley's thoughtful intent, providing a host of doohicky-sized knicknacks for him to gift as he pleases.
However, the objects would be replicas, or imitations of the items from home, rather than the actual thing. How accurate they are would be up to you, and there might be some inconsistencies in how passable they are as copies. If that's alright, then they may appear freely in Wriothesley's residence, already pre-portioned out into convenient piles on his bed.

Reward treats suggested by players or requesting Special Treatment

Character Date Tier Treat
Momo (yesdoubt) 2025-07-14 Luxury treat (special treatment) And what Momo receives is... a vending machine. Hopefully he has the space for it, wherever he's living, but it will attempt to turn up in a reasonably convenient nook. Karteria has vending machines, but this doesn't look like them; it's simultaneously futuristic and retro, mildly glowing to itself without even being plugged in.

Does one dare to consume The Snacks? At a glance, this is easier said than done, as the machine does not interact with the Syntrofos whatsoever, and the symbols on the machine (Instructions? Advertisements?) are unreadable. It only takes specific physical currency- the same sort of coins that turn up in all levels of treat, as it turns out, and it can't be tricked into accepting anything else. Without coins to spend, what does one do? Shaking the machine will not cause anything to fall loose.

Fortunately, once a day the vending machine will abruptly vend one of its items at random. It's a food/drink machine, so there might be chips, cookies, crackers, soda-like beverages, and similar. The labels are bright and colorful, and everything is entirely safe to consume. The flavors are familiar, if not quite right.

Eating any of these treats provides a minor healing effect. It is slight; a small wound will heal faster, an itch will depart, a sore back will be a bit less sore. They're not going to cure anyone of illness, and you can't slap a snack cake on a mortal wound, but they will leave the consumer a little better off than before. If there's nothing physically wrong, they will feel emotionally better. Any fur/scales/feathers will come in a little glossier. These boosts will work on anyone who eats them, so Momo is free to share his snacks if he wishes (or if someone comes in and steals them).

There is a month's supply of 'goods' within the vending machine, and it will be restocked once a month. (So if Momo (or anyone else) used treat-currency to empty the thing at once, he could, but he'd have to wait a month for it to refill.)

If coins are ever deposited, there does not be any way of accessing wherever they end up. If a non-appropriate coin-shaped-object is inserted, it will be consumed to no effect. If the machine is broken- such as smashing through the glass-like front- then all the current treats can be accessed at once, but it will no longer refill.

Eli (visciousabyss) 2025-10-24 Small Treat, Medium treat

and I have two PROPOSALS, given that Winter Is Coming and Eli has a plant bf and they only have solar power out in da woods lol. Feel free to edit/add weird quirks to these.

50?- magical woodstove (for heat, & with stovetop for cookin)- maybe clap on/clap off? lmao. powered by magic or katalyth or friendship or Eli's eternal rage or whatever idk

25?- magical sunlamp, perhaps it only works at night, powered same way as stove

And both the woodstove/sunlamp sound great, and could be powered as you see fit. But if you'd like, the stove, were it dissected, contains trace amounts of Katalyth artfully twined up in its metals and wiring. It's quite an advanced construction- more complicated than the appliances that can be bought in Karteria (and which surely don't run on Katalyth these days). It's also sufficiently insulated so that it's not going to ruin anyone's mood to be nearby. But it is reactive to emotions in the vicinity, so Eli could very well charge it by being mad in its presence. (All emotional states will provide it energy, and it's quite efficient at converting them.)

(He could also just put actual wood in the woodstove and burn something other than bad feelings.)

(The woodstove also arrives with those valuable coins stuffed inside it. Hopefully Eli finds them before trying to use the thing... but the metal is actually really resistant and would survive being burned by most methods anyway. And cooking it smells awful.)

The sunlamp works similarly to the stove, but as it's smaller, it's less effective in some way, such as only working at night, as suggested, or only able to hold a charge for a few hours at a time before needing to cool down.

Northly (northling) 2025-11-19 Luxury Treat

Luxury treat? Could Northly get some glasses that show basic item stats and descriptions from her world? Anything too plot/Karteria specific I figure could get redacted — show up as black bars — and she would never ever use it on a person (apart from a young child, that's a big cultural no-no) but it also wouldn't work on living animals/things equivalent to living animals (aka the plant creatures) but would give things like:

Rock

Class: blunt projectile Strength: 1 Durability: 3 Alignment: Void

Simple. Efficient. Classic. Rock.

for a palm sized stone.

Potentially would give other characters from game settings their version of the stats if they were to wear them?

Idk, I'm flexible! But mostly it would be neat to have Northly occasionally spout silly flavour text.

That would count as a luxury treat! But glasses as described, with those caveats/limitations sound entirely doable. And other characters wearing the glasses could have the information translated into their version/style of it, yes!

Miscellaneous things to note: looking at Katalyth through the glasses will display stats (as it is not a living thing or equivalent) but both the categories and any numerical values are completely glitched out. Different pieces of Katalyth will have different glitches, but there's nothing to decipher from them. Rather than redacted, it's like... a completely incompatible format. If it had sound it would be screeching.

Looking at anything in Kelesis: the font will change to something cute and friendly like comic sans. The glasses will continue to 'function', in that stats sure will come up when she looks at things, but the stats are not likely to make sense, and will frequently include emojis. The tone throughout will be enthusiastic and encouraging.

(Additionally, should a player prefer their character or some object related to them be unreadable, then it would be presented as garbled, or redacted text.)

Momo (yesdoubt) 2025-12-04 Luxury Treat (special treatment) Rather than appear hidden, scattered, or otherwise inconvenient to pick up, all of Momo's coins gather themselves all into one tidy little pile. They're even neatly stacked and organized.

Resting atop the pile is a vase, about 40cm tall. It is... strangely decorated, with the shapes of a whole assortment of small animals molded onto it, making it a rather lumpy entity. All the animals are life-sized, comprised mostly of mice, insects (butterflies and beetles), and sparrow-sized birds. There is no blank space, the entirety of the vase comprised of little animal sculptures(?). It is pure white.

It also comes with an assortment of freshly cut flowers (they can be any sort, real or not, but there's a variety). They are at the peak of blooming, and will remain that way indefinitely, without water or any other intervention. If removed, they will begin to decay at the normal pace.

In actuality, anything that's put into the vase is kept 'fresh'. Objects (living or dead) are placed into a kind of stasis, sustained in their current state. While it seems to have been designed for the purpose of displaying flowers, it could be used to store other perishables. Being vase-shaped might make this a bit awkward, but it will work. It is reasonably roomy on the inside.

(Does the whole of something have to be in the vase to trigger this effect? No, as indeed the intended flower-use has the blossoming parts extend well above the interior of the vase. However, the greater percentage of the object that's outside the vase, the weaker the effect. Imagine a refrigerator door left open: it's still producing cold, but is unable to cool anything as efficiently as with the door closed.

But so long as something is at least a bit in the vase, its overall condition will be an equivalent amount of maintained.)

For some reason, using the vase leaves a person feeling guilty. Only a little, and it passes quickly.

Lauralae (rakta) 2025-12-07 Luxury Treat (special treatment) On one occasion an odd circlet appears instead. Made of some jet-black substance, it's cold to the touch and lightweight. It's very intricately made, the design full of little whorls and knots, details that are only apparent up close.

While it also serves as just a fine piece of jewelry, it also fills the wearer with a commanding presence. Sometimes, at least. It's potent enough that once per day the wearer can make a request of someone else... and it will be obeyed. Casual asks will become unassailable demands- insofar as it's possible, at least. Trying to command something physically impossible will fail outright and use up the day's opportunity.

(There is also something of a time limit on the orders placed. The impetus to complete a task will wear off once it's complete, or an hour has passed. The person set on a task will remember the experience, but in the moment it will feel completely natural and absolutely pressing that they do this specific thing.

It's also one use per day, not per wearer- so it can't be passed around to trigger the same effect repeatedly. It will work for whoever wears it, however.)

Wriothesly (trounce) 2025-12-16 Is this even a treat?, Small treat

1 pair of kitschy whale slippers (2); is it okay if they turn up in this thread...

1 pair of kitschy and even uglier slippers (2)

1 small treat of the ugliest sleepwear set (25)

The slippers may absolutely make their entrance (dramatic or otherwise) in a thread, to be appropriately appreciated.

The other fine pair of slippers and adorable sleepwear can also turn up similarly, or sneak unsuspiciously into Wriothesley's wardrobe, as though they'd been there all along. It's already getting cold out there, so they should hopefully help in warding off the chill.

https://alogos.dreamwidth.org/7832.html?thread=934808#cmt934808

Wriothesly (trounce) 2025-12-29 Luxury Treat (special treatment) The glasses arrive perched on top of the other strange gift- that of a heavy, metallic wardrobe. Although textured to look like it was carved (and with plenty of intricate details, at that) from wood, it's cold to the touch and too dense to be naturally anything. While there's plenty of space to store existing clothes, it will also manifest entire outfits of its own accord. If there's space, it will produce something new every 1-3 days.

The clothing itself is not of great quality. Very fast-fashion, synthetic. So synthetic, in fact, that it dissolves entirely within a day or two of being produced. No matter how delicately the material is treated, it will reduce itself to a lump of oddly gooey shreds inside of 48 hours- hopefully not while anyone is wearing it! This trash is meant to be discarded, and has no reusability.

Sizing and style: it will attempt to imitate whatever real clothes are put inside the wardrobe. It may take it a few tries to get it right, and it will never fit as well as the real thing, as though it had been 'standardized' to a shape that's perfect for no one. Without examples, the wardrobe will produce a variety of sizes, all in the shade of utilitarian grey. There will be pants, dresses, robes, shirts- everything you need, as long as you don't need it for long. But why do you need to keep anything around, when it will make something new soon enough?

Hubert (bloodypath) 2026-01-02 Luxury Treat (Special Treatment-ish)

Luxury Treat - Special Treatment-ish. Scorpion-rhino-boy has had a hard time and I would his coldblooded ass to have a blursed self-heating rock of some kind to lay on, please

After all he's been through, does Hubert not deserve a warm rock of his very own?

And he'll find it delivered right inside his very doorstep (right inside, so be careful tripping over it). It is roughly Hubert-sized if not precisely Hubert-shaped (it is rock-shaped). Of a nice sandy color and a pleasing texture, it would invite any lizard (or sensitive rhino-scorpions) to get right to basking.

Especially because it is already warm and is permanently warm. Its temperature does fluctuate throughout the day, with it being hottest at night, and less hot during the daytime- but it's always giving off some amount of heat. There does not seem to be any way of adjusting it, or turning it off, but thankfully it never seems to get hot enough to cause injury.

The marvels of mysterious technology!

Verso (versoul) 2026-01-08 Luxury Treat (Special Treatment)

Special treatment please! But can I request that it involve alcohol? (Considered getting 4 more wine glasses but this is more fun.)

Indeed, why settle for a mere four (more) glasses of wine a day (with some accompanying incidental praise) when one could have an entire wine fridge?

That is, it's a mini-fridge designed to hold wine. It is capable of keeping whatever's placed in it cool (without even being plugged in), but it's made for wine. It even arrives fully stocked! The bottles are all labeled, branded, though it matches nothing that's sold in Karteria (or Kelesis) today. The writing isn't in any familiar language, and they're decorated with artistic representations of mountains, rivers- nature in general. They have logos of dogs, deer, dragonflies.

Verso is free to empty the fridge at his own pace. As long as there's space in there, one new bottle will appear every week. If the fridge is full (of wine or other cold-seeking objects) it'll skip that week and try again later.

The quality itself: it's good stuff (for those who care to appreciate wine). To anyone who's been drinking from the replenishing wine glasses, they could notice that it's of similar stock. These are just the full bottles. Occasionally, however, a particular bottle will be uncommonly potent. While it will taste similar, it will have a strength closer to that of vodka, or other hard liquor.

The normal bottles have no extra effect. It's good wine! If anything bad happens it's not their fault! For the special bottles, however... if truth lies in wine, these draughts are the opposite. Anyone who drinks from them (more than a drop, don't need to down a whole glass) will be unable to tell the truth for the next hour. Shouldn't be a problem for Verso though, right...

Dedue sworndevotion 2026-01-25 Medium Treat (Special Treatment) Well. In more pleasant(?) additions, Dedue will discover a beautiful '''music box''' sitting atop one of his other belongings. When its mechanism is wound, it will play a melody from home. Lovely. It also causes anyone who hears it to become '''incredibly drowsy'''. It doesn't force them asleep, however, it just makes the prospect of it particularly appealing. Even people who shouldn't be capable of sleep, or don't require it- they will still find themselves craving a snooze.

The drowsy-effect is only applied while the music is playing. When fully wound up, it has enough energy to play for around three minutes. The effect does work on the deaf, or anyone deliberately plugging their ears, suggesting that the melody is supplementary, rather than required.

If any listeners of the box do fall asleep... they're asleep. It is perfectly normal sleep, and they will rouse through normal means.

The treat money arrives with the box, neatly arranged in a circle around it. Convenient!

Eli viciousabyss 2026-01-27 Luxury Treat (Special Treatment) What is waiting for Eli where he's staying is... a small cardboard box. It has a picture of a bird on it, along with some unreadable text.

Inside is a mechanical songbird. The same one as was printed on the outside. 'Mechanical' is sort of pushing it, as it looks more plasticy than anything, and only the beak has a hinge. It's 'perched' on its stand (its legs are fused with it). It doesn't look anything like the birds on Pathos.

Once removed, it will begin to speak. At first, its words don't make any sense- it's speaking an entirely different language. But the voice is cheerful and friendly. After a couple days of existing around ambient conversation, it will abruptly switch to the local language.

Hello! Would you like your daily fortune? If it receives any sort of affirmative, it will proceed with a couple lines suggesting something that will happen that day, or something to watch out for. There is one fortune available per day. Whoever agrees to hear it first gets it. The fortunes vary from being appropriately vague, to alarmingly specific, but they are accurate. The contents are usually mundane happenings, but can strike on more important events as well.

Apart from that, the bird will also answer questions about the weather ('answer', at least; a harsh static will be the only reply), or the time (apparently it is always 9am). It is fairly simple, and won't respond to other requests.

Is the birdy a that's so Raven style prediction, where any attempt to avoid the forecasted event will lead to it happening anyway, or is it possible to avoid/change the fate predicted once it is known?

It is possible to avoid the bird predictions! It's more of a forewarning, in that sense, providing a twig of information that can be potentially acted on. There's no 'try to avoid this, and you only made it happen harder!' kind of trickery.

Hugo totalize 2026-01-28 Luxury Treat

That is, Hugo has been working on establishing an art gallery (and he obtained the building through totally legitimate means don't worry about it), so let's fill it! He'd be looking for pieces from Karteria and Kelesis both (or anywhere else!), and with a focus on things he could potentially sell to the upper classes. If the mods are so inclined, feel free to give me some specific pieces, but I'm also more than happy to just make them all up myself. Also points cost-wise, truly flexible here, so whatever seems good to y'all! Like, you can take every point I just banked if you're so inclined, that's all good with me 👍

What is an art gallery without art to fill it... that very legitimately acquired building needs pieces!

For a general estimate... let's say that per luxury (100) treat, Hugo could obtain 6-12 paintings. The variable number permits a variation in perceived value. Their total value would be roughly equivalent to what a character could receive from the plain luxury money option.

The style and subject of the pieces is up to you!

In addition, however: there arrive a couple of paintings that don't match anything in Karteria or Kelesis (and nothing on Orexis or Eparsis, either). They illustrate a city, were it comprised of nothing but viscera. Or at least, it's sort of city-esque, with shapes that suggest towers, high-rises, archways, streets and signs and shops... but it's all been grown over with flesh.

As these pieces are unlikely to be sold, they're just a sort of 'bonus'(?), and don't count towards the 6-12 treat.

oh that’s horrible thank you

Let’s go with 600 points worth of art to make it a good opening and! For the Viscera City paintings, are these all by the same artist, or are they all different? Is there anything Hugo could find out further about them?

If not that’s okay!! He would just be like “what” and want to look into it haha

That should be a fantastic opening to Hugo's gallery! And as he continues to receive more Flesh Art with every purchase, he could almost open a whole terrible wing in this one theme.

There's no signature anywhere on the paintings, but the style drifts over time. It could be the work of one person, experimenting in the ways of capturing this peculiar cityscape, from the realistic, to the baroque, to the abstract. More likely, it's the work of a collective, inspired independently by the setting, while imagining it in uncannily similar ways.

Some of the paintings clearly capture the same street, only in different styles. But there are plenty of unique vistas. Graveyards, blocky apartment buildings, playgrounds. All of it comprised of flesh.

If one compared them to the cityscape of Karteria or Kelesis, there wouldn't be anywhere in either city that matches it (even when accounting for 'this building, but meat'). If this city exists outside of the artist(s)' imagination, it's no where the Augmented have been.

Dante followyourstar 2026-02-02 Luxury Treat

Replica PDA and Identity Cards from home

The replica PDA and cards may turn up, tucked away alongside some of Dante's other belongings. They're exactly where they would they expect them to be, as though they'd been there all along, and had somehow gone overlooked until now.

Yesod wordchain 2026-02-03 Luxury Treat

I'd like to request a replica of the Seed of Light Project papers documenting the work of the research team that Yesod and Malkuth joined in their first lives.

Those papers may appear alongside the rest of Yesod's things, as though it had always been there. The replica might be a little off from how it was originally written- not in the accuracy of its contents (it's not making up anything, or changing how things went), but in formatting, like the 'file' hadn't been imported corrected. A bit odd, but the information is still there, at least.

Vanitas bleude 2026-02-06 Small, Medium, Luxury and Luxury (Special Treatment) Treats

- Small Treat: Asterisque flowers & seeds (from home)

- Medium Treat: Tracker earrings

- Luxury Treat: Some Chasseur's ability-enhancing drugs (from home)

- Luxury Treat: Money x 2

- Luxury Treat: Mod's Choice?! It's his birthday on the 7th! (Just no sweets... he hates sugar, the sourpuss haha)

- Luxury/Limited/UR Treat? Would it be possible for Vanitas to gain an astermite-powered carriage from home? Along the lines of an old school car like this? It wouldn't be fast or efficient like a modern car, but I'm obsessed with the idea of Vani causing vehicular chaos on the tiniest scale by putt putting around town with friends haha;; No worries if it's too out there, I totally understand.

Vanitas could receive (a replica of) his carriage as a luxury treat, though it would inherently come with some drawbacks. As astermite doesn't exist as a resource in the setting, it could arrive pre-modified to run off of Katalyth (how safe...), or electricity- or it could turn up unmodified and immobile. (And in either case, could be modified further by characters to work off of other forms of energy.)

More crucially, maybe... cars aren't legally permitted on the roads of Karteria. It would be difficult to avoid getting caught with it, and having it either impounded, or otherwise told to keep it off the streets. If the carriage has any sort of off-road capability, no one would be able to stop him in the wilderness....

(Kelesis does not use cars either, but has no rules against them. As long as Vanitas wasn't trying to run anyone down, he'd probably be permitted to drive his carriage around. He'd just have to get it to Kelesis first. Kelesis will also need to survive in something of its current state.)

The earrings and money arrive safely in his room, there's no trouble there.

As objects can't turn up from home, the flowers and seeds couldn't be of the exact same variety. If that's alright, a similar-looking species would find its way into his possession.

The same would apply to his ability-enhancing drugs. A knockoff, store-brand variety of his magic steroids would be what turned up for him. It might act somewhat differently as to what he's used to, but it could have a similar effect.

For the unique luxury treat: Vanitas will receive a large and luxurious blanket. It's luxurious in the sense that it's made of a fine wool-like material, soft and durable. Surprisingly durable; this thing could be used as armor in a pinch, being practically immune to being torn or set on fire (it is not resistant to being stained). It's also large in the sense that it could comfortably swaddle at least two people without needing to quarrel over amounts (or quite thoroughly burrito an individual).

It is also printed with an artistic(?) representation of Vanitas' own face. All over it. It's the pattern. It's also not a very good representation, as though whoever had been behind it had only ever seen him at a distance, or heard a vague description of him.

Takasugi takasugi 2026-02-17 Luxury Treat

going out on a limb here, but a replica of an object from home in the shape of Proto Arahabaki, his robot that's about 10-ish feet tall and lets him sit in it. I don't even know what I'm entirely planning to use it for yet, but if it's possible... maybe it can sit in the car graveyard, or with Patho-Gen, and... be devoid of its major abilities like shooting missles and a billion bullets or whatever. Unless? It's the Special Treatment Request for a special boy? If not, more money. (100 pts).

Takasugi may receive his knockoff Proto Arahabaki, crammed as awkwardly as possible somewhere in his residence. Or nearby, if he doesn't want to like. Dismantle his home to get it out of the living room.

It will sadly be unable to shoot anything, but parts will light up and make the right noises instead. It might also have a difficult time moving, if Takasugi can't power it himself, or if it can't be made to run off of local forms of energy... and Karterians would not take well to the sight of a robot (they're not sure if it qualifies as a car but it's probably breaking SOME kind of rule) gallivanting down the street. Just sitting in the car graveyard, or stored somewhere else would draw less alarm.

On the seat of his robot throne is all of that money.

Wriothesley trounce 2026-02-11 Small Treats
  • (25) A pack of red money envelopes from a certain nation in Teyvat (Liyue); also able to split between a large handful of people.
  • (25) A small rucksack of shells, sea glass, and sand dollars from a certain nation in Teyvat (Fontaine); and again, also able to split between a handful of people...
  • (25) A small bag of nuts, bolts, and strange mechanical parts from a certain nation in Teyvat (Fontaine); basically, it's a shopping list of Wriothesley and Neuvillette's thank-you gifts.The knickknacks are doohickey sized.
Something is reacting to Wriothesley's thoughtful intent, providing a host of doohicky-sized knicknacks for him to gift as he pleases.

However, the objects would be replicas, or imitations of the items from home, rather than the actual thing. How accurate they are would be up to you, and there might be some inconsistencies in how passable they are as copies. If that's alright, then they may appear freely in Wriothesley's residence, already pre-portioned out into convenient piles on his bed.
