Certain famous witches have been known to require a bit of a ego boost from time to time, and have found ways though magic to achieve this, in the form of the Magic Mirror. Such a mirror traps a demon who will provide certain services for its owner, including the aforementioned ego boosting. Once created, using a Rite of Infusion (a medium white circle containing a Brew of Hollow Tears, a Gold Ingot, a Glass Pane and a Demon), the mirror may be placed on any two high wall (at the top block). Using the mirror will pose it the question of who is the fairest in the land, to which it may respond with the player, or perhaps another nearby NPC. If the player is not the fairest, they may have to take drastic measures to ensure they become so... The mirror when asked will always indicate the rough direction of the Fairest. Only the Fairest have Hearts of Gold (used in some potion making). Using the mirror will also reveal any players that may have stood in front of it since last it was used by the player who it deems the fairest. Using a Quartz Sphere on a mirror containing a demon will charge it
with the players reflection creating a Duplication Grenade (assuming enough altar power is available).
Throwing this sphere will create a duplicate of the bound player and
cause mobs currently targeting the player to target that instead. Finally, using the Taglock Kit of another player on the mirror, when there is enough altar power available, will transform the player into a mirror image of the taglocked player. Using the players own Taglock Kit (or an empty one), can be used to turn the player back to their own form (this does not need altar power). Using other types of transformation (wolf, bat, etc.) will automatically reset the player's mirror form (so will Brews of Revealing). Use the config options: B:AllowChatMasquerading and B:AllowNameplateMasquerading to control these two aspects of this power. Stepping into a mirror Getting too close to a mirror can be risky, since the player can be sucked inside, and while this can be beneficial for an extra (and possibly portable) storage location, there is the problem of the bound demon to deal with. The demon in the mirror is a Reflection, and it will take on the form of the player who enters its mirror (and take revenge!). Slaying the reflection, makes the mirror hollow, which allows control of the space within the mirror, but now the mirror will no longer have a demon to ask questions or perform conversion magics. Hollow mirrorsMirrors without demons have another useful property when placed a short distance apart (up to 16 blocks) and back to back, in such a configuration they act as a doorway between each other. This effect can also occur vertically if placed over one another with the same facing. Mirrors within mirrorsPlacing a mirror on the wall while inside another mirror, does not appear to have any real effect, although altar power may allow it to break the barrier between two mirror spaces - ensure that you have a second mirror to place to allow the return journey (back to back mirrors do not need altar power).
You may only exit mirror spaces by the mirror that you entered so keep this in mind, and if you do get stuck in a mirror with no way back, just chant: To go back to the original mirror space. |
