Ooh, yeah.

Starmourn is swinging into Spring this month. Plants, water toys, outdoor fun with friends... facility artifacts, you name it!

Also a quick note that we'll be doing a refresh of this month's promotional content on May 15th. Some of what's here will be swapped out, so get it while it's fresh!

This month, we have some new artifacts for facilities. The Facility Data artifacts are upgradeable and available for purchase with normal credits, but you can also get its first level on the Mission Control board!

* More Facility Events (facility_events): Facilities you enter have double the chance of having special event floors.
* +10% Facility Data (facility_data_1): Data gain in Vihana facilites is increased by 10%

As for new promotional items, here's this month's lineup so far:

* A small box of WaterWorks popper capsules (7 tradein credits): This white plastic box is branded in a pattern of the WaterWorks watermark - glistening water-based firework graphics in various shades of blue and green. A collection of small blue capsules are visible through a thin transparent square on its top. A thick blue ribbon crusted in sparkles ensures the packages remains closed until needed, while also covering a general use warning label which reads: Contents under pressure. Explosive in water. DO NOT EAT.
* A toy watergun (10 tradein credits): This toy watergun has been manufactured to resemble a classic revolver with a plastic body painted in silly colors and a bright orange nozzle. A tank of water is mounted to the side of the barrel and a pop-out cylinder allows the user to select from a series of bright dyes to add pizzazz to the water streams.
* An overfed trasherbell (10 tradein credits): Perched precariously on a strangely tiny pot, this trasherbell is overfed and shows no signs of stopping. A pair of oversized leaves flank its bulbous yellow base, patches of off-yellow discoloration climbing the trunk up to a wide, pink-rimmed mouth-like opening. Viney tendrils stretch out from below the leaves, seeking out prey in the form of small items like food scraps all the way up to fully formed furnishings and vehicles.
* A hypoallergenic A|Rc134n filtration mask (8 tradein credits): A hypoallergenic A|Rc134n filtration mask is the pinnacle of intake and output control. A clear aluminum adjustable faceplate is filled to the brim with quickly buzzing nanites working hard to filter every molecule that passes from environment to wearer. The mask is outlined in a soft cobalt blue hard-light ring giving the wearer an ethereal quality. The only sounds coming from the mask are occasional gentle puffs of air that smell exceptionally clean.

And some fond promotional item friends:

- A PenumbraWorks W1 series weather protection device (15 tradein credits): This state-of-the-art PenumbraWorks W1 series weather protection device can function as both protection from the elements when walking through rain and, with the turn of a handle and the help of inbuilt SmartCore, turn into a beach parasol to protect you from the blistering sun. Holographic menus that integrate with your mindsim even allow you to choose your favorite color.
- A cozy beach chair (5 tradein credits): Perfect for anyone looking to set up a cozy scene of relaxation in any environment. Comes with recliner functionality and a cup holder!
- An elaborate hookah (8 tradein credits): Fitted with the latest in molecular isolation technology, this old-fashioned looking hookah allows a variety of substances to produce smoke enjoyed for flavor and scent as well as any mind-altering effects.
- A cheerful metal watering can (8 tradein credits): This cheerful little watering can is a botanist's friend! WATER <plantpot> to make seeds germinate instantly, or to make fruit or other harvestable items refresh.

We also have a great slate of Big Prizes this month on Mission Control:

- Every 50 shots: 50 credits
- Every 100 shots: an archaeological field work contract
- Every 200 shots: an 'Instant Epic Hero Gear' block
- Every 1000 shots: bhrk_life_support
