Whispers
"Ladies and gentlebeings, we are proud to bring a selection of specialised weaponry for this violent age we find ourselves in. Bidding will last for three hours starting now - remember, fortune favours the well-equipped."
Topping a magnificent cloudcutter in one of Denon's wealthiest districts, the penthouse made for a stately, if unusual, site of commerce. No auctions had been held here previously and no auctions would be held again - despite the acute illegality of some of the wares on sale, CorpSec had been convinced to look the other way by a 'charitable donation'.
No amount of bribery could keep such an establishment open for long, however - not in plain sight.
A variety of beings had arrived to participate, ranging from Corpo oligarchs looking for a souvenir to battle-scarred warriors in search of an edge. In one corner a man in Sith regalia looked ready to strangle a Jedi counterpart.
Refreshments were served by a number of completely identical 'middle-aged human men' in neat suits.

As with last time, no permission is required to join - please don't blow the place up, however. While it's technically invite-only ICly, Greystone works in mysterious ways. Even an unwashed vagrant could find himself invited.
You can bid whatever you want - UCs, submissions, favours, unsubbed stuff made up on the spot, the sky's the limit. I pick whatever I prefer for each lot; I reserve the right to blatantly favour people who want to do fun stuff with the item.
Roleplaying is optional, but I am more likely to pick bids that aren't just - yawn - [X] credits.
The auction will run until May 15th or until people get bored. Whichever comes first.

LOT ONE - Furthestkiller.
- Auctioneer's Note: A sniper rifle like no other, this marvel of technology can take out targets from hundreds of kilometres away. In the hands of a sufficiently skilled user, anyway. Use responsibly.
- Current Bids:
- Thayne Tameron - One Assassination. / 'Quite the violent clientele today. Not all that surprising, really.'
- Auctioneer's Note: This accursed blade drains the life of its victims to empower the wielder; even the smallest nick spreads pestilent death, so be careful where you swing it. Should not be wielded by the weak-willed.
- Current Bids: ---
- Auctioneer's Note: Infinite ammunition and terrifying firepower, what's not to love? Big Bigby may not be elegant, but it is brutally effective at dealing death - and just as importantly, completely unique!
- Current Bids:
- Hex - A surprise party to die for, for a group of the seller's choosing. / 'Confetti included? What a deal!'
- Auctioneer's Note: 'Whosoever holds the Leash, holds the Beast's allegiance'. This, ladies and gentlebeings, is a one of a kind opportunity to procure the best bodyguard money can't buy - the perfect killer!
- Current Bids:
- Inanna Harth - Maleficent Curse. / 'What an unusual weapon. Do we need any Sensitives dead?'
- Auctioneer's Note: Just recently, this unique vessel plagued the hyperlanes under various pirates - perhaps it can do more good under your command, or would you rather dissect it for its exotic systems?
- Current Bids:
- Karkosuchus - The Gargantuan. / 'Certainly lives up to its name, you'd need an army to crew this!'
- Auctioneer's Note: Artificers on retainer will create the weapon of your dreams. Your bid, your choice.
- OOC: I'll make one weapon for you - doesn't need to be a Ranged/Melee weapon, doesn't need to be Unique. Your call. Feel free to argue the definition of a weapon, if you like. I reserve the right to blatantly favour bids with cool concepts attached, but ideas don't need to be presented up front.
- Current Bids:
- TC-CS-4820 - One Covert Operation. / 'Another one? Excellent, I do like utilising independent assets.'
- Iella Sunscream - 23.8k Credits. / 'I almost expected another assassination offer.'
P.S.S. No one 'bid' any bad poetry last time, despite my urging. Do better.
