Err. Why? I want to show off my shinies

They're used in RETCON, so they can't be moved from your inventory.

Did you mean they are used in transmog? I'm not sure how they are used in retcon.

No, I was told one had to have it in one's inventory to RETCON... or was that the other class-specific talisman?

If this is the case, I see no reason for this requirement.

A little history.

Of course, at first, there wasn't an MD to put it in, so it didn't matter. Then, when the MDs went it, it was blocked from being put in because you needed it if you were going to transmogrify. In the interest of protecting stupid people from themselves, they were barred from being put in the MD, along with other questy items. When we started working on retcon, I believe we were going to have the original talismans flushed with each run. That later changed.

So, essentially, the reason for not putting them in the case is still the same: you can't transmogrify without it. If you're in an item-restricted run and you put it in the case, you'll be blocked from retrieving it should you wish to transmogrify. Yes, it doesn't put the game in an unwinnable state, but it puts the game in an "annoying bug reports sent to Ryme" state.
