Hey you guys. =)

I need to order some staff items for myself in the next couple of months, and I would be honored if you all would help brainstorm ideas and concepts for how they should look.

There should be a similar theme among the items, but some differences are fine too!

You can see my staff forum avatar, staff apple and staff balloon by clicking the links. I am really wanting a revamp of those items, but I like the broken mirror/glass idea, and the butterfly too. I'd like to go with some deeper shades of blue and blue-based purple in there though.

Okay, so the list of things I need to come up with:

  1. Staff squishy (everyone on site has access to buy)
  2. Book item (everyone on site has access to buy)
  3. HA wearable (everyone on site has access to buy) 
  4. OAK item (Means one of a kind, only one item ever created)
  5. Staff weapon (everyone on site has access to buy)

I would like to stick with a butterfly design for the squishy, but I am completely open to different suggestions, and to design suggestions.

The book item, I just need ideas for the art and the colors. The content is going to be about a mischievous shoutbox user who blames her cat for many things. ;)

The HA wearable can't be really complex, and it can't be an entire outfit. I would prefer something in the Accessory, Add On, Head (preferably a wig), or Hand Held categories, but I am open to suggestions for other categories.

The OAK item can be in any category. A toy, another HA item (again, simple), but there will only be one of these in the game. I sort of have an idea of what I want for this one already, but I'd like to see what is suggested anyway!

The staff weapon...I've always referred to bringing out my cast-iron banskillet to deal with a rowdy user, so that's one idea xD But again, any suggestions would be great.

On a side note! Any of you guys who are into drawing art and have an idea for revamping the forum avatar, apple, and balloon, please rmail me and give me an idea of what you have in mind. You will be paid in either TU, credits, or CP if I decide to hire you to draw these!

I may also decide to have a user draw the other items, in which case, you will also be paid accordingly. Anything other than rough sketches shouldn't be posted in this thread though, they should be sent directly to rmail.

Please be aware that if this does happen, the art you submit will belong to Rescreatu. It won't belong to me, it will belong to the site. So don't draw me a design that you love and would want to use somewhere else <3

Ready? Let's do this!

For the weapon, maybe an iron skillet with a broken mirror on the bottom? There could be a curious dent where the glass is shattered

Shoes!! I can never find shoes I like. That could definitely be one idea for the wearable. 

A sceptre is interesting too and definitely a good idea, but I'd like a more "everyday" type hand-held item. One that wouldn't require a specific outfit, you know? I love the tamia haunted lantern...but it really only works during the halloween season.

I wonder if the cast-iron skillet could be made from mirrors, that do not break, but dents? XD

For the HA, I thought it would be cool if you do like a handheld mirror based off those old fairytales. The stories would be that the princess has an enchanted mirror, much like a looking glass, and she was given it by her prince. Together, through the mirror, they could see each other and communicate. But instead of the gold elegant mirror being whole, it would be broken.

Yah, random thought. Just a bit of my childhood stories there.

For the OAK item, it would be a lot of work for artists, but maybe a 14brokenmirrors jelly bean that causes a shatter effect on your creatu. It could be unlimited use, or maybe has to recharge after a use or something.

That's a cool idea, but it would be unfair, since there would only ever be one of those items and it would be mine. There would be no way for anyone else to ever obtain the effect <3

For the squishys, I think you should have the butterfly resting on a broken mirror. That would be boss in my opinion.

The OAK item could be the mirror my sister was talking about. Also boss.

The Wearable I think should be either the mirror or a little glass butterfly that could rest on your shoulder, or fly around your head or whatever. You wouldn't specifically need an outfit for that, it would go with just about anything with either white or blue in it.

For the weapon, a glass skillet sounds epic.

For the books, what I think would be awesome is basically the pattern of the butterfly in your avvie all over the book, but in blue instead of clearish-white.

Anyways, I hope you use some of these ideas ^^

:O an awesome idea came in my head

a 14brokenmirror dress :D

it will be a dress that look like broken parts of mirrors and on the chest would be broken pieces that would shape like a butterfly

but I think this item should be availible only to you I think in my opinion :)

For HA. I was thinking either a Broken Mirror Necklace, or a Falling apart Butterfly for a hairclip.

For the Squishy I was maybe thinking of a Cracked Mirror with a Glass Butterfly falling apart inside. :)

-cracks knuckles-

Book - Perhaps something with a shimmery-reflective-iridescent look? Like the back of a CD. c: ONLY CRACKED BECAUSE YOU'RE BROKEN AND YOU ARE BROKEN.

OH NO WAIT.

Perhaps a matte-ish blue/purple, with mirror pieces in the shape of a cat. OR SOMETHING shaped like a cat.

HA - I really like the glass slippers Blaze suggested. c: A tiara or even a pretty little sash that goes around the waist would be cute too.

Oh, but shouldn't it be gender-indifferent? Perhaps a t-shirt with BORKEN on it?

OAK - 14BM rubber duck. 

Just because.

Weapon - The skillet sounds cute. :D Only, instead of the whole pan, why not just have the handle or something made of mirror? That way, it doesn't have to have some weird backstory as to why the glass bends but never breaks.

Ermagewd. OAK item. A glass shoe. That'll only fit the princess' foot for you. *u*
The book sounds really great for what Russia suggested. An glassy book that's all shattered from a corner/middle/derp. Shattered nonetheless. Maybe the crack makes a "14" onto the cover.

For the HA item, OAK or otherwise, you coul go with....
glass butterfly wings?
a butteffly shaped eye/face mask?
a literal butterfly that rests on your HA's head or otherwise?
shattered glass at your feet?
fairy esque kinda dress?
