I want to add, for my items, can you increase the price ONLY for none Luminoso members that I allow to buy the spear. Maybe the current price for luminoso family members and then maybe 100-300 more florins for non-family members.

I don't think that family items should be put into the shops. It seems unfair to know that it is there but not be able to get it because only a certain family can use it.
What if to get family weaopns you have to put a request in at the end of your animus character loading page and then you would have to do an RP of about 50-100 words telling how you got it, what it means to your family, and mabye a small battle scene (sparring or against gaurds) depictng the weapon in it's entirety. Plus, by doing that you would be making that weapon more special to your character.
So The request would look like this (Example):

When you are done, she continues.
"System failure. Unable to retrieve memories. Please enter a description of your ancestor."

Code:

Ancestor's Name: John Doe
Ancestor's Age: 21
Ancestor's Gender: Male
Ancestor's Alliance: None
Ancestor's Appearance: Absolutely, uterly, terribly.......normal
Ancestor's Short History: He sucks at every thing related to combat. He nearly killed himself while practicing with a sword. He has been a banker ever since.

Please load with: Doe family dagger. A very small, very thin knive with a gold and silver hilt that has the Doe family crest on it, a bunny rabbit looking up at you with cute puppy dog eyes.

"Information accepted. Welcome to the Animus. Sit back and enjoy the ride, but please read the instruction manuals if you need assistance."
The machine boots into life, transporting you to the world of assassins...

Good point, but it should be an rp topic unlocking and obtaining it. It'd be similar to the requirements for a contract like 500 words.

A little shorter. It shouldn't be an entire quest. Mabye 200-500 words depending on the item.

The more powerful or useful the weapon, the more words.

Exactly what I was thinking.

And maybe it would require a certain task from someone or a self-made task like needing to retrieve it because it was stolen.

Hmm. So much to load and do. This'll take more than a weekend, especially due to me being away! PM me about staffing.

Are the weapons that requested in page 2 loaded or unloaded?

Oh sorry! Not loaded. Loading.

Small Crossbow failed to load.
Wakizahi loaded.
Tiger Claws failed to load.
Leather Chest Guard loaded.
Plate Metal Chest Guard loaded.
Metal Arm Guard loaded.

Thank you......but I still think that the Tiger Claws were a great idea.
