I bought a bunch of teleportation jewelry from the Spitfire recently and didn't realize they would attune to a single character. Is there way to disown these and pass them on to my other characters on the same account?

I don't believe so, no. While you can have as many teleportation jewelry pieces on any one character, I don't believe you can give them to anyone else.

My experience has been that so long as you don't use the teleportation jewelry it remains unattuned. Once you use it then it is attuned to that character.

I don't know if this is intended or not but I was able to do the following at EG last year:

1) Purchase teleportaion jewelry item at Ebon Gate.
2) Have the teleportation messaging changed to an EG specific message.
3) Hand the unused teleportation item off to another character on my account.
4) Have the other character use the teleportation item (initial use from a home town, not FWI) without issue.

Aw, that's too bad. Any chance this could be changed in the future? Perhaps via the RAISE command.

And thanks for the tip PeregrineFalcon, I'll keep that in mind in the future. While that was my intent initially, I used them all once just to see the different messaging.

Once you use them there are settings that exist as fail safes to make sure you can't let someone else get back to your return point... at least that's my understanding of why they work the way they do. I'll peek at the code to see if an unattuning element is possible, but I make no promises!

Thanks Jainna. I understand sometimes things just can't be done so I'll keep my expectations appropriately low but hope for a favorable outcome. :p

Perhaps a conversion portal/bucket/font/whatever somewhere in the Zephyr Halls so that you can dunk a piece of jewelry into it and it returns to the base item template?
(i.e. "clear of all user settings" as though you had just picked it up.)

Okay, teleportation jewelry now has a RAISE feature where you can unattune it. It will work for anyone, so don't give your jewelry to someone you don't trust. ;)

Let me know if anything breaks horribly or explodes because of this. Heh.

Jainna, you're just the worst ever!!!

(Kayse really wants to steal Kaldonis's FWI transporter because she loves my alteration design. Since I naturally offered her an implosion instead of my green tourmaline band, at Spitfire this year she made a necklace inspired by my design. But she still wants it. Now my argument, "Yes, but you can't use it" is defunct! Grumble grumble grumble.)

N.B.: This post dripping with sarcasm. Great update!

Pfffft, it wasn't TOTALLY based on your design. Had only seen your band once! Just for that:

>Ambush Kaldonis finger
You leap from hiding to attack!
You swing an alloy obsidian-hued francisca at Kaldonis!
AS: +420 vs DS: +232 with AvD: +29 + d100 roll: +30 = +247
....a zillion points!
A tiny halfing finger surrounded by a green tourmaline band goes flying across the room.
Kaldonis is knocked to the ground!
Kaldonis is stunned!
Roundtime: 6 sec.

>get finger
Kayse picks up the bloody halfling finger and grins evilly at Kaldonis.

>remove band
Kayse twists and turns the band but removal seems to be quite difficult from the stubby halfling finger!
Roundtime: 15 seconds

>remove band
Kayse pulls hard and the band eventually slides off! Gazing fondly at her new treasure, she discards the finger over her shoulder.
Roundtime: 8 seconds

An aardvark waddles in, snuffling along the ground. Sniffing curiously at the finger, it's purple tongue flicks out a few times, before gobbling it up!

>cackle Kaldonis
Kayse cackles at Kaldonis, a deep resonating laughter coming from her throat. Kicking some dirt on him she sneaks into the shadows with her new prize!

You keep on the dope with your 420 AS. Kaldonis camps with a DS like 750 easily.

:P

Plus I bet my finger would animate and knock you over.

Where fashion and beauty are concerned, your DS can't stop a girl from getting what she wants.
