;Creamy white letter with a [[unicorn]] watermark - 150gp : The paper of this letter is a thick, creamy white that emphasises its high quality. Thin black parallel lines run across its width, evenly separated, to assist in keeping lines of writing neat and regular. Watermarked into the letter's background, in a pale grey silhouette that does not distract the eye from the letter's text, is the image of a magnificent unicorn. It stands alert, one forehoof raised, with its head facing to the left. An elegantly groomed mane and tail hang from its form, and a sprialling horn ascends from the centre of its equine forehead.

;[[Snakes|Viper]]-decorated letter - 150gp : Bordering this letter are two green eyelash vipers, picked out in lifelike detail. The viper on the left is obviously ready for a fight, its head drawn back and fangs exposed menacingly as it peers across the upper edge of the letter at its counterpart. Along the left edge, the viper's body twines caressingly about the hilt of a deadly-looking [[dirk]], the blade resting flat upon the snake's skin. The viper on the right appears more relaxed, yet also alert, its tongue out and flickering, as if studying its environment as it exchanges gazes with the other snake. On the right edge is a partial view of an open book, with the viper's body lying upon it in deceptively lazy coils. Each viper's body trails down to the bottom of the letter, and their tails meet in a loose knot in the middle. Across the top is a gold plaque with ornate script reading, "If you neglect your art for one day, it will neglect you for two." The background of the letter is decorated in a very faint, light green scale pattern. This letter may be rolled into a cylinder and bound with a green ribbon to keep it from unfurling.

;Dream motif letter - 150gp : Across the bottom of this letter is the back of an anonymous [[sleep|sleeping]] figure. From the sleeper comes a dream-bubble, in which you may inscribe thoughts or dreams of your own. The letter may be rolled into a cylinder and bound with a black ribbon to keep it from unfurling.

;Moon and sea decorated letter - 150gp : Tiny specks of silver paint dapple the upper fourth of this letter, sparkling stars on the background colour of deepest blue. In the middle of this area is a full white moon rising above an unbroken horizon of dark ocean. Bright moonlight reflects off the water's surface in a widening swathe as it extends down the length of the paper, providing a writing area over lightly suggested waves and further touches of silver off the peaks of the waves. The letter may be rolled into a cylinder, and bound with a black ribbon to keep it from unfurling.
