Crafting Designs

From Curious Pastimes Wiki

These are basic designs available to all crafters with the relevant skills, they are non-exhaustive and listed to give a sense of what's possible.

There’s No Price List!

Crafted items don’t have an official value in coin, since prices are set by players themselves. For the purposes of the Evaluate skill, every item has a cost to produce, reflecting the rough value of the materials and work units to create them; non player character traders will generally base prices on that value.

Armour

High quality armour may be enchanted or otherwise magically invested, and allows a warrior to use skills such as Armoured Caster or Sturdy Shield more often.

Below costs are per location. For costs for a full suit, multiply by six.

Ornate Armour

Armour of superior or master crafted quality can be made ornate by various means: cloth can be dyed or embroidered, leather can be dyed or inlaid with precious metals, gilded links can be incorporated into chain. Plate can be especially elaborate, either inlaid with precious metals or covered in fine dyed cloth to make brigandine.

All qualities of item can be made ornate. The costs below are in addition the base cost for the item being made. These are minimum costs are per location, for example you could add jewellery metal to the ornate padded armour or use high quality jewellery metal on the Plate armour. For costs for a full suit, multiply by six.

Items Quality Skill Minimum Costs Work Units

Note: Ordinary Jewellery metal can be copper, tin, lead, bronze or brass. High Quality would be silver, gold or platinum, for example

Hardened Armour

For those who can make it, Hardened armour is fashioned from tightly linked rings, closely overlapping layers of leather, reinforced plates etc., to prevent it being penetrated by sharpened weapons or skilled attacks. Hardened armour takes one armour hit from an arrow, a crossbow bolt, or any mundane attack calling Through (i.e. not accompanied by the magical damage types Artefact, Corporeal, Elemental or Spiritual) as though it were a standard attack. Through attacks after the first hit to each location bypass the armour as usual, until the armour is repaired.

This benefit stacks with the skill Through Defence; using the skill doesn’t use the armour’s own benefit.

Items Quality Skill Costs Work Units
Heavy Chain Hardened Hardening 9 metal (H), 8 sand 15
Plate Hardened Hardening 9 metal (H), 8 sand 16

Hardened armour is also automatically mastercrafted. With research, a Blacksmith with the Hardening skill can research improved designs that resist multiple (or all) Through blows.

Armour Staples

Any blacksmith can craft armour staples at a cost of 3 work units for 3 staples, from one metal (O) and one charcoal. Using a phys rep of relevant tools, a blacksmith can consume staples to repair armour quickly in the field.

Items Skill Costs Work Units
Armour Staple (for 3) Blacksmith 1 metal (O), 1 charcoal 3

Clothing

High quality clothing may be enchanted or otherwise magically invested; a high quality cloak allows a scout to use the skills Chameleon and Move in Cover more often.

Ornate Common Items

Common items of any quality can be made ornate by adding precious metal gilt or inlays, engraving the item, or incorporating glass or gems.

Add the below costs to the costs of all items except tables, chairs and thrones, above, or double the below cost to tables, chairs and thrones.

Finishes Quality Skill Minimum Costs Work Units
Semi-precious Gilt or Inlay Ornate Artisan, Jeweller 1+ jewellery metal (O), 1 charcoal x1.5 original work units
Precious Gilt or Inlay Ornate Artisan, Jeweller 1+ jewellery metal (H), 1 charcoal x1.5 original work units
Engraving Ornate Artisan, Jeweller N/A x1.5 original work units
Glass or gems Ornate Artisan, Jeweller 1 glass (H) or 3 gems (uncut) x1.5 original work units

Note: Ordinary jewellery metal can be copper, tin, lead, bronze or brass. High Quality would be silver, gold or platinum, for example. For larger items (for example a large table), it may be that more than the above is required to complete an ornate design.

Gemstones

Gemstones start out cloudy (e.g. a topaz is orange-yellow) and uncut, and can be finished in two ways: cutting a stone makes it more magically accessible, allowing it to be ritually enchanted or otherwise invested (the first cut is the equivalent of a superior-crafted item), while polishing simplifies the colour, making it more powerful in narrower ways.

Finishes Skill Costs Work Units
First Cut Gemcutter 1 gem 9 (or 27 if first-polished)
First Polish Gem Cleansing 1 gem, 1 sand 9 (or 27 if first-cut)

A cloudy gem lists up to three possible colours on the back of the card; when polishing, the Jeweller must specify which colour they are moving it towards. Cutting and polishing gems always carries a small risk of destroying the gemstone.

Example
Edgar of Oxford has dug up an amethyst, an uncut, cloudy purple stone which he knows is rich in spiritual and elemental magics. Over a number of days, he polishes it once towards the blue colour, turning it into a spiritually-strong blue amethyst, then he cuts it once, producing a first-cut blue amethyst.

The Gemcutter and Gem Cleansing skills grant knowledge of the first cut and first polish only. Research can unlock finer cuts and deeper polishes, and reduce (but not eliminate) the risk of destroying the gem.

Note: Cutting a gem always yields one unit of powdered gemstone as a byproduct.

Jewellery

High quality jewellery may be enchanted or otherwise magically invested. Jewellery may be crafted with an inlay of amalgam to invest as an amulet.

Note: All designs using charcoal yield 1 unit of ash as a byproduct, and all designs using metal yield one unit of powdered metal.

Paper and Printing

Scroll paper can be invested with Invocation; high quality presses can be used to efficiently print scrolls, saving on ink.

Items Quality Skill Costs Work Units
Book Superior Artisan 1 leather (O), 5 paper (O), 1 oil 10

Printing Plate Superior Mechanician 1 stone (H), 1 sand 2

Printing presses use block-and-plate hand printing, one plate must be engraved for each page to be printed. There is always a chance of a press misprinting, wasting paper and ink; with research, mechanicians can learn to reduce (but not eliminate) this chance.

Note: All designs using charcoal yield 1 unit of ash as a byproduct, and all designs using metal yield one unit of powdered metal.

Printing Scrolls

Printing presses can be used to print scrolls, making more efficient use of expensive magical inks. The above listed press is able to print lesser scrolls, printing 6 scrolls from one pot of ink (rather than 3); mechanicians can research presses able to print greater scrolls.

A printed scroll still needs to be magically invested with the Invest Scroll rite.

Tools

Creators don’t need to make separate high quality tools to do standard work or research; their tools are assumed to be part of their workshop. But crafters may wish for separately-crafted tools so that they can be enchanted or otherwise magically invested, or to aid in using skills in the field.

Ornate Weapons

Weapons of any quality can be made ornate by adding precious metal gilt or inlays, engraving the weapon, or incorporating glass or gems.

Add the below costs to the costs of small or one-handed weapons or bows, above, or double the below cost to two-handed weapons, polearms or crossbow.

Finish Quality Skill Minimum Costs Work Units

Glass or Gems Ornate Blacksmith 1 glass (H) or 3 gems (uncut) x1.5 original work units

Note: Ordinary jewellery metal can be copper, tin, lead, bronze or brass. High Quality would be silver, gold or platinum, for example.

Silver Weapons

A blacksmith with the Metallurgist skill can create silver weapons, producing a complex alloy rich enough in silver to harm werewolves, but still hard enough to keep an edge. Attacks with silver weapons use the damage call Silver.

Any melee weapon with any metal in the above list can be made out of silver alloy by replacing half the metal (H) with jewellery metal (H) (silver) and spending half again as many work units (in both cases rounding up).

Example
