    Recently I've edged away from scene building in favor of creating a few new assets to go along with some new emotes and behaviors folks can enjoy with their characters! What you see here is a collection of pipes for those who wish to enjoy one with their friends, along with a pint of ale or two (or three,...or four)... Of course, as with most emotes, you can do this almost anywhere!

    You'll find in the row along the top of the image below the three basic type of pipes that you can craft within the game; the standard metal, wooden, and clay pipes. All pipes can be equipped in your right hand and must be equipped in order to use the /smoke emotes. We chose the right hand because that means you can hold a pipe while simultaneously holding a beverage mug in your left hand, thus reveling in both vices at once!

    The five pipes along the row at the bottom are the elaborate fanciful metal dragon pipe, the fancy metal pipe, the elaborate fanciful wooden skull pipe, the fancy wooden (calabash) pipe, and the elaborate fanciful meerschaum wolf pipe... All of these five will be available for purchase for those that REALLY want to show off... Plus,...I'm in the middle of working on three more that are patterned after the busts of the titans of Truth, Love, and Courage in the same meerschaum style!

    Enjoy!

    And when you finish with the pipes......how about tabletop versions of the Titans in Silver, Pewter, and Gold maybe? :)

    Edit: The Pipes look great, by the way.....

    Wow! Look at all those pipes! I hope we can blow smoke rings (and, dare I say.. smoke dragons?!?)

    These are excellent!

    I do wish there were still cross promotions going in with other indie studios. IAs Roehm to Ruin is coming soon, and Quest for Infamy featured some great pipe smoking.

    A+ work!

    Quick question though... will these be deco items as well? Having a pipe for emotes is excellent - but having a collection of pipes to put on display is next level!

    That's awesome man. You guys are adding so many cool things to the game. I love it!

    Are some of the new emotes smoke rings?

    Thanks for posting this Scottie! I had to edit your post to fix a few things.
    1. The three basic pipes can be crafted
    2. You have to have a pipe equipped to use the /smoke emotes (versus how we currently do the /toast emote and conjure up a default mug).

    ^ Def hope they can be used as deco! Nothing like setting my unused pipe on a counter or a wall shelf! :)

    Any details on what blend can we use for puffing ? I would like to fancy myself some medium roasted nightshade.

    Don't usually care about cosmetic stuff but these look super fun and I'll have to talk to my local pipe-smith

    Would be nice if in addition to being used by our characters we could use it as display too.

    So is it possible to wear both a pipe and a hat at the same time?
