Description

Blank: A flat piece of papyrus made from pressed reed fibre. It is possible to inscribe on the papyrus sheet if you know how.

Inscribed: A flat piece of papyrus made from pressed reed fibre. It appears the papyrus sheet has something written on it.

Inscribing

It is possible to write notes on a papyrus sheet.

  • Fill a reed pen with black ink or dye
  • Activate the reed pen
  • Right-click the papyrus sheet and select Inscribe
  • Enter the text in the window and click send

After a papyrus sheet is inscribed it gets the option to 'read inscription', which opens a window with the inscribed text.

The number of letters you can write on a sheet of papyrus is 121 + (pen QL * 2). Decimals are counted, so a 40.50ql pen allows one more letter than a 40.49ql pen.

Mail

You can mail the inscribed papyrus sheet for a reduced cost of 1i to any server in the same server cluster.

Sending cross server does not double the cost, but:

If <playername> does not return or accept the item before it expires (usually in two weeks), it will be lost. The inter-island mail service can not handle expired returns.

Notes

  • Failure to create a papyrus sheet will use 0.001kg of the reed fibre.
  • The amount of letters you can inscribe is affected by:
  • QL of Papyrus Sheet
  • QL of Reed Pen
  • QL of dye or ink
  • Dye has an offset of 10 letters
  • Ink has an offset of 100 letters.

The number of letters you can inscribe is therefore equal to "(the offset) + (QL of dye/ink) + (QL of papyrus sheet) + (QL of reed pen)"

  • Trying to drop papyrus sheets into a bulk storage bin returns the message: The inscription on the papyrus sheet would be destroyed.
  • The inscription contains some characters that are too complex for you to inscribe - you are limited by the characters that you can use when renaming an item in game. If you try to use question marks, you will get an error message.
