{ regain wishing well }


REGAIN WISHING WELLAt the end of every large event, characters are rewarded a bauble within the first week. It is found next to their pillow with a note that reads, "Thank you for your help! Throw this into the Wishing Well to receive a special item from home. Just imagine the item and it will appear. (watch out for the glitter) Can also be used at the Observatory or gifted to others!" As briefly described, this bauble is basically the game's "regain token." With this item, characters can throw it into the Wishing Well and receive the item they think about. All regains are manifestations of the item rather than the original and are affected by the game's limitations so nerfs may need to be applied. Here are the following ways the bauble can be used:

  1. Personal item. It can be either from their original world or from the previous game world if they are CRAU. Animals and other living things are allowed, just in this case they would be the "dream self" version and follow our pet/sidekick rules. Any item that had specific abilities from the CRAU world will be removed, but it's likely that a version of it that fits within the game's mechanics (ie, dreamotion) could be recreated by the character or the item depending what it is.

  2. General item. Alternatively, a generic, non-personal item can be pulled from their original world (or previous game for CRAU). The item must be something that is easily obtainable or purchased, and cannot be a version owned by someone else. "Unique" animals that are known companions of some kind can be allowed, but others animals are excluded as they can be brought in more easily through the beastiary submission.

  3. Dream Observatory. Introduced in May, the baubles can be used at the observatory to get a glimpse of home. By using one bauble, people can look through the telescope to catch a glimpse of their world at a certain period of time related to them. It's vague and blurry so it's not the same as a real canon update, but it can give characters a little peace of mind to know they can at least see their home for a minute or so. Alas, it's too quick to let others see it.

  4. Gift a Bauble. Have some extra baubles to spare? By filling out a simple card at the Wishing Well, a character can gift their bauble for someone else to use. All they have to do is write "I, [NAME], gift my bauble to [NAME]" on the card and toss it into the well and with a poof of glitter, the bauble will align itself to its new owner and be used however they see fit. They can even gift it to someone else using the same process if they decide not to use it. When gifting the bauble, the gifter must comment and the receiver must reply so that we have an official record that the gifter no longer has that bauble. Note: in the event the receiving character drops before using the bauble, the bauble will be returned to the gifter.

The bauble does not need to be used immediately and can be used at any time. More baubles will be rewarded in the future and other uses for them will be introduced in the future for those who have nothing to regain, so feel free to stockpile. Players are expected to keep track of their character's baubles.

To use the bauble, just fill out the form and post directly to this entry to submit your character's regain. We'll try and comment within 24 hours for quick approval, but we hold the right to ask questions or even reject a regain submission if we find that it would not work in the game. Players are welcome to ask any questions they have about their item in their submission comment or in the Questions thread. If more than 72 hours have passed and you haven't received a comment, please contact us via PM or through the discord.

Character: Martel Yggdrasill
Item: Her staff. Just a basic mage weapon. What do they even do with them? It has some stuff that seems to magically float in place but that's probably just a fancy design thing.

Heya! I'm wondering a bit about the limits to the observatory visions. Can a certain period of time also refer to the past? How far away from the character's own experiences can the vision go, generally? E.g., could a character ask about a moment in the life of someone they know (who isn't and never will be in game) before they knew each other, which made them act a way that directly influenced the character?

Gotcha. Follow up question: what happens when a character tries to see a vision the observatory can't show them?

Item: Panpipes. They're an instrument made from a rare tree. In the game they can summon a shiny bird spirit, but here they'd just be a flute.

Player: jade
Character: somnus
Item: Ring of the Lucii.

It's a magical ring in canon that's passed down by their family, starting with Somnus. In canon, Noctis is the one who currently wears it. I'd like to request this magical ring for Somnus not as he once wore it 2k years ago, but the exact same one that Noctis is wearing (which contains all the ancestors' souls within it). Because he's interested in how powerful baubles are and how this wishing well works, he wants to see if the bauble would give him duplicate, basically. And he would want to see if this replicate Ring also contains the ghostly souls of his family... including that of himself.

Questions: The Ring has got some overpowered spells attached to it, in particular-- Death and Alterna. Death is the in-game insta-kill of an enemy. Alterna yeets an enemy into a void. And it's this spell Somnus is interested in recreating here, because if it can send something to another dimension, he's wondering if it can be tinkered with dreamotion in order to return home. In short, this bauble request is for use of his plot.

Player: CS
Character: Zhongli
Item: He's going to use the 3 Regain Baubles he got from the Story Eater event to get 2 bottles of vintage Osmanthus Wine from Liyue and 1 bottle of vintage Dandelion Wine from Mondstadt. Both types of wine will be of high quality.
Questions: Is it possible to have the Osmanthus Wine and Dandelion Wine become introduced as an item for sale here in Reverein? If so how would one go about doing that? Thanks!
