[Panzer, The Bestest God and Bestest Armor]

"Ugh, what happened? Did I overspend again? Anyway, time to do stuff."
Panzer returns to the Blackrock Spire.
"Time to experiment."

Panzer initiates: The Essence Container Project.
Panzer brings forth a sizeable quantity of all currently existing materials, from all over the world.
Panzer uses 5 Essence to test Essence Storage in these materials.
She pushes Essence into the crystalline structure of several crystals and gems.
She hammers Essence into metals, trying to make the metal glow with stored up Essence, without it being shaped for a specific purpose.
She smashes rocks and puts Essence into it's dust, to make enchanted sand.
She tries to store Essence in the air, forming a loop around the Essence to keep it in place.
She tries to put Essence into plants, like bark, sap, even the nectar of flower, trying to make enchanted honey and such.
"Phew, a bit of hard work testing all known materials."
Panzer tries to find what material tends toward best Essence storage, so she can make a new material that does storage best of them all.

Tick 14.0: Not yet!

Morgon and Gowler have won the Creativity Award! Congratulations! (Morgon: +23E, Gowler: +23E)

Panzer has won the Chronicler Award! Congratulations! (Panzer: +45E)

Spoiler: Excess Essence (click to show/hide)

Vimbr responds to the children:
   Children: "Sure!"

Panzer almost initiates the Essence Container Project, but it seems it is probably as straightforward as paying caps 2:1 in each direction, but the manifestation of the Essence storage may have some interesting properties: (Panzer: -5E)
   The crystals seem to store Essence very efficiently, but they probably shatter(/are disrupted unpredictably) easily.
   The metals store Essence durably, but they are probably too detectable.
   Enchanted sand is very easily manipulable by mortals and agents, but the Essence seems somewhat hard to extract back.
   Storing the Essence in the air in loops seems to be very detectable and possibly quite lossy, but the Essence is very, very easily channeled back. With improvements, this sort of design may result in a cap transfer ratio lower than 2:1.
   Storing the Essence in plants conceals the Essence well but introduces a very significant lag between creation and recovery.

Gowler has created more Dunelings. (Gowler: -8E)

Gowler listens to prayers:
   Duneling bonemover: "Look! I can make these bones move!"
   Duneling guard: "We offer this flawlessly bleached skull to the dust and sand"
   Duneling farmer: "You should make bonetrees! Even if they defeat the whole point of using bone..."

Gowler has opened more bone-carving shops in Farankofor. Large caravans have begun exporting the massive surplus of bonecrafts. Gowler admires the art-pieces, observing the following highlighted works:
   A maze model dotted with skulls on which "Elder Bones' Untamed Labyrinth" is engraved
   A restored whale skeleton brought in at great cost from seafaring merchants
   A swarm of tiny sandturtles carvings suspended by string, also in bone

[Panzer, The Bestest God and Bestest Armor]

"Oh yeah! I wo-HPRGHL!"
Essence sprays out of Panzer's helmet, she manages to stop it, but loses 1d6 Essence.
"Heh, heh, n-not used to this much Essence. Time to use this."
Panzer cackles loudly. And powerful strikes are heard upon Erde.

Panzer infuses Erde with more Essence, 25 more, bringing it to 51 Essence.
"Yes, YES, JA!"
Erde becomes Amboss von Mittilagart. A Divine Artifact.
Der Amboss von Mittilagart can create life in the inanimate. Swords gain a will of their own, some wanting to shed the blood of a man every time it's unsheathed. Armor may walk on it's own.
This is the power which made life, and so it will, in every artifact made here.
"Ja, my home, at last. Perfection, now I can truly make myself whole."
Everyone can feel the unnatural aura emanating from the anvil.

"Hahahahaha!"
Panzer continues her experiments on the storage medium. She uses 8 more Essence. 2 Essence for each item.
Panzer tries a crystal with a metal ring around it, to see if she can make some directions absorb or expel Essence faster.
Panzer tries to make enchanted metal sand, so mortals can use the sand to create at least basic artifacts.
Panzer makes a coil around air, and tries to put Essence into there.
Panzer makes a hollow metal torus, in which the air flows constantly in a circle.
Panzer creates a crystal for 10 Essence, and any new income which is too much for her to contain, is stored there, temporarily.
"Can't go losing power, now."

Essence momentarily sprays out of Panzer's helmet, setting an exciting precedent! (Panzer: -4E) Panzer immediately turns to infusing Erde with great Essence, granting it the ability to introduce the spark of life, turning it into Amboss von Mittilagart (Panzer: -25E)

Panzer prepares to perform more detailed investigations into Essence storage but soon runs into the problem that reliable tests would likely require investment of Essence caps rather than Essence alone. ((Proceed? 2:1 to transfer caps in either direction at base))

 create 8e of dunelings
Take the perfectly bleached skull and use it to create the thunderskull of bone assembly. The thunderskull can assemble and combine bones to perfect shapes and patterns. When the idea of the wielder of the thunderskull is completed then a loud thunder can be heard. Use necessary essence.
Bonn the grand artists of farankofor with 3e.

Gowler has created more dunelings. (Gowler: -8E) Gowler has also created the thunderskull of bone assembly out of the perfectly bleached skull, allowing it to perfectly assemble and combine bones and produce a thunderclap on completion. (Gowler: -4E)

Gowler has also granted assorted boons to the grand artists of Farankofor.

Undeterred by the cost of such work, Panzer creates an array of prototype Essence storage devices! (Panzer: -8/7E)
    A crystal ringed by steel seems to absorb and expel Essence more efficiently to and from its poles
    The enchanted steel grains seem very nearly ideal for mortal use but seem to lose some capacity slowly with use. There is also a significant fire risk for unwary mortals.
    A coil around air seems to absorb and expel Essence very quickly and feels ever so slightly easier to construct than the previous designs. It does flare off quite a bit of corrupt Essence, though.
    A hollow steel torus with continuous circular air flow reduces the flaring-off noticeably, but it absorbs and expels Essence less readily. It feels substantially easier to construct but possibly less durable.

Finally, Panzer has begun work on a still-capless storage crystal. (Panzer: -10E)

Tick 15.0: Not yet lost!

Spoiler: Excess Essence (click to show/hide)

A contract between Morgon and Gowler has expired naturally.

Gowler has created more dunelings, a bone-working artifact, and appreciated artistic works created in Farankofor, granting them 3E's worth of boons.

Excited by the new prospect of Essence storage, Panzer has created assorted prototypes and tested them, finding that they likely have different very domains of usefulness.

[Panzer, The Bestest God and Bestest Armor]

"Hm... actually, I should get this one divine too."
Panzer puts 14 Essence into the hammer, Schöpfer, bringing it to 40 Essence, just need 10 more.
"I should get more capacity soon. Actually..."
Panzer tries to draw Essence from the attempted storage mediums, to see if she can make Schöpfer reach 51 Essence.
She will start on the big crystal, then go to the first attempts, then try the second attempts.

Spoiler: Excess Essence (click to show/hide)

Pharact has completed the stunningly beautiful Origin Triangle. (Pharact: -24E)

Gowler has created the bone pyramid, a smiting tool. (Gowler: -11E) Gowler has also created the Bonehall of Glory, an arena in Farankofor in which the bones of the dead are used to produce rewards for the winners. Gowler has held a tournament in the Bonehall, and the winner has been given the bone pyramid and immortality. (Gowler: -1E)

Muda has created more Minutemen. (Muda: -20E)

Panzer continues work on Schöpfer, even drawing from the storage media to the last drop of Essence, but is still about 4-5E away from completing it. (Panzer: -14E, storage media: -4E)
