Think of... Some dark colored shorts and sturdy boots and also put those one??
Anyone feel free to change the outfit if you want
Oh, also I'd be fine with naming us Metus!

Our name? Kitty Pryde.
Our outfit? Steel-toed boots (for safety), 12 belts (one for our neck, three for each arm, and four for our tail. NONE for our waist) And our pants? Gothic full plate armor.
Oh, and a t-shirt with a math pun on it. Preferably about imaginary numbers.

You shut the closet again, and try to focus on all the different clothing options swirling around in your head.
It's difficult to maintain your concentration, but you do the best you can.
When you touch the handle of the wardrobe this time, the handles feel warm to the touch, a fact which concerns you somewhat.
As you open the closet, you find:
-A pair of brown, sturdy boots
-A white, collared shirt with long sleeves
-Black slacks with suspenders
-A dark red tie
-One and a half belts; one simply seemingly stripped in half down its middle
-The brim of a hat, presumably a fedora, by itself; the center of the hat simply missing
-An intact pants zipper, presumably all that spawned from the shorts
You remember the note mentioning "limited use", and decide not to attempt to spawn more new clothing.
...At least for a little while.
Now, with a various array of clothing, you attempt to make a coherent outfit out of everything.
You end up wearing:
-The intact black belt
-Black slacks w/ suspenders
-Sturdy brown boots
-White, long-sleeved shirt
-The brown trenchcoat
-The dark red tie (sort of)
You attempt to put on the tie, but realize you don't know how to properly tie one.
You settle for hanging it around your neck somewhat loosely for the moment.
Perhaps you can tie it later, or maybe create one that wouldn't require tying.
Overall, you feel quite a bit like an old-fashioned detective, delighting in this.
Shame about the hat, though.
You place the fabric sci-fi bodysuit in the closet for later, and decide to place the flower crown on the table in the corner.
Holding the safety glasses in your hand for the moment, you consider keeping them with you. After all, they could be useful later.
Speaking of that...
>INVENTORY
Your inventory is currently empty.
Perhaps you could attempt to TETHER the safety glasses, should you want to.
After careful consideration, you decide on the name "Metus" for yourself.
You believe it suits you.
You blink, and in front of you on the table, next to where you placed the flower crown, a large white present box with red ribbon has now appeared.
NAME has been updated.

Inspect the box before opening. Does it make any strange sounds? Is it heavy? Is there a note on it? Do not shake the box, you don't want to break it.

You carefully inspect the box.
It doesn't seem to make any strange sounds, though you find it to be a tad on the heavy side after trying to lift it.
Will you open it?

You lift off the top, finding several items inside.
At the very top of the box, you find a charred chain loop - lengthy enough to fit around your neck - with a pendant hanging on it. The pendant itself is black with an orange, scarred eye in the center.
Underneath that, you find what appears to be an ordinary, rectangular vanity mirror. Upon picking it up, it teleports out of your paws, reappearing moments later in the middle of the table, the mirror facing the chair.
To the side, there is what you can only guess is an olive green handheld device which looks a bit like a small megaphone. Attached with a three-foot cord is a pair of black, over-the-ear headphones. "D.A.R." is written in white on its handle.
At the very bottom, under everything else, you find a set of two yellow-and-black walkie talkies.

You sit down in front of the mirror and look inside.
It seems to be an average mirror, as far as you're able to tell.
>TETHER
Standing back up, you attempt to tether the safety glasses first.
Holding them in your hand, you focus for a moment, and they turn white and zap out of existence.
Hearing a noise in the corner, you turn to the odd box you found earlier.
Inside, amongst the smoke, you see the pink safety glasses pop in, beginning to swirl aimlessly.
The message on the side now reads: "1/6"
You tether the three objects in the box, and they appear inside as well, all four objects drifting about together.
The box now shows: "4/6"

You hear a tiny pinging sound behind you as something small and metal drops to the floor, causing you to jump.
You swivel, and find a little silver key on the carpet.
It looks as if it might fit into a small padlock.

>LEXICON
Calamity Pendant - Charred chain loop with a pendant hanging on it. The pendant is black with an orange, scarred eye in the center. Meant to be worn as a necklace. Effect currently unknown.
D.A.R. - Stands for "Directional Audio Receiver". A handheld microphone with an attached pair of over-the-ear headphones. Can be pointed in any direction to hear audio from that source, even through walls. Has limited range.
Pier Glass Vanity - A small vanity mirror. Looking into it will revert any form corruption, should that be desired.
You pick up the key.
Above you, the chalk outline on the ceiling - the one directly in the center - becomes a trapdoor; black with yellow stripes.
It is locked with a small padlock.
