Crafting Designs

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, including the rarity of the materials and the amount of work units to create them; non player character traders will generally base prices on these values.

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 superior or mastercrafted items can be made ornate. The material costs below are in addition the base cost for the design. These are minimum costs; for example, you could add gemstones to dyed armour or engraving to gilded plate armour.

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

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

Ornate Common Items

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

Add the following material costs to the costs of all items except tables, chairs and thrones, above; or double the costs to tables, chairs and thrones. These are minimum material costs; you could, for instance, stain leather or wood with powdered dye, burnish metal with powdered gemstone or weave precious metal fibres into cloth.

Finish	Quality	Skill	Costs	Work units
Engraved	Ornate	Artisan, Jeweller	N/A	base design ×1.5
Gilded or Inlaid	Ornate	Artisan or Jeweller	1+ jewellery metal, 1 charcoal	base design ×1.5
Glass or gems	Ornate	Artisan or Jeweller	1 glass (H) or 3 gems	base design ×1.5

Notes:

• Jewellery metal includes e.g. copper, silver or gold.
• All designs using charcoal yield 1 unit of ash as a byproduct.

Gemstones

Jewellers can alter gemstones in three ways:

• Cleansing: A gemstone’s colour is made up of five hues (red, green, blue, black and white), at four levels of density (rich, vibrant, muted and none). Cleansing reduces one hue by one level. Both cut and uncut gems can be cleansed, although it is much harder to cleanse a cut gem, so most jewellers will ensure they’ve cleansed the gem to the desired colour before cutting it. Gems can be cleansed multiple times at increasing cost, although it is not normally possible to remove the last level of the last hue. With research, it may be possible to enrich a gem’s colour.
• Cutting: There are many different types of cut, aligned to various spheres and aspects of magic; on first learning the Gemcutter skill, a jeweller knows the first cut aligned to one of the three spheres (below). With research, a gemcutter can unlock the second and third cuts aligned to that sphere, or learn any of the other possible cuts.
• Etching: After cleansing and cutting a gem to refine and focus its magic, a gemcutter etches it to “seal” its power, giving it a specific purpose: for instance, to use the gem to cast a specific spell (the amount of power in the gem depends on the combination of colour and cut). Etching a gem is required to use its power, but prevents any further alteration. On first learning the Gemcutter skill, a jeweller knows the basic seal associated with the first cut they’ve learned.

By default, any cut gem expires three years after receiving its first cut. Cut gems cannot be maintained until etched, and second and third cuts do not extend the expiry. Any etched gem expires one year after receiving its seal, but can be maintained by polishing (below).

Process	Skill	Costs	Work units
Cleanse rich hue to vibrant	Gem Cleansing	1 gem	15 (see below)
Cleanse vibrant hue to muted	Gem Cleansing	1 gem	25 (see below)
Cleanse muted hue to none	Gem Cleansing	1 gem	50 (see below)
First corporeal cut	Gemcutter	1 uncut gem	25
First elemental cut	Gemcutter	1 uncut gem	25
First spiritual cut	Gemcutter	1 uncut gem	25
Seal of Lesser Healing	Gemcutter	1 cut gem, 1 powdered dye, 1 powdered metal	25
Seal of Mend	Gemcutter	1 cut gem, 1 powdered dye, 1 powdered metal	25
Seal of Spirit Reading	Gemcutter	1 cut gem, 1 powdered dye, 1 powdered metal	25

Notes:

• Cutting a gem always yields one unit of powdered gemstone as a byproduct.
• Double the cost of any cleanse to cleanse a first cut gem, triple it to cleanse a second cut gem or multiply it by five to cleanse a third cut gem.

Polishing

Etched gems can be maintained by polishing. Polishing an etched first cut gem costs 10 work units and consumes 1 coarse polishing paper. Polishing an etched gem resets its expiry to 1 year from the date of polishing.

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.

Item	Quality	Skill	Costs	Work units

Notes:

• Any herb can be used. This has no mechanical effect unless specified otherwise.
• All designs using charcoal yield 1 unit of ash as a byproduct.

Invocation Items

The below items are crafted to be magically invested via invocation.

Charms

Charms are one-shot items:

• Trinkets are simple tokens inscribed or stained with mundane ink and charged with the Invest Trinket rite
• Scrolls are sheets of paper or vellum written with a relevant magical ink and charged with the Invest Scroll rite
• Sigil stones are stone or clay discs inscribed with mystical sigils in magical ink and charged with the Invest Stone rite

Item	Skill	Costs	Work units
Trinket (for 3)	Any	1 ordinary grade material of any kind	3
Sigil stone	Artisan	1 stone (O), 1 sand	2
Scroll paper	Artisan	1 paper (O), 1 fluid	2
Scroll vellum	Papermaker	1 leather (H), 1 fluid	3

Talismans

Talismans are charged items, inlaid with an inscription in a relevant magical amalgam and invested with the Invest Talisman rite. Talismans must be crafted to at least superior quality to hold lesser spells, or mastercrafted quality to hold greater spells.

Item	Spell level	Skill	Costs	Work units
Amulet	Lesser	Jeweller	per superior jewellery, plus 1 amalgam
Amulet	Greater	Goldsmith	per mastercrafted jewellery, plus 2 amalgam
Brand	Greater	Weaponsmith	per mastercrafted weapon, plus 2 amalgam
Wand	Lesser	Artisan	1 wood (O), 1 amalgam, 1 oil	3
Wand	Greater	Carpenter	1 wood (H), 2 amalgam, 1 oil	9

Mechanisms

High quality mechanisms may be enchanted or otherwise magically invested, and are harder for thieves to foil.

• Small locks are fitted to boxes and chests,
• Large locks are required for doors, gates etc.
• Padlocks can be moved between different places, but are more intricate and harder to make.
• Needle traps strike someone triggering them with a small needle, which inflicts no damage, but can be coated with any blade venom.

Note that in addition to the standard item cards for any crafted item, locks need separate lock cards to facilitate picking and disabling mechanics. See Locks and Traps for more details.

Item	Quality	Skill	Costs	Work units
Padlock	Superior	Jeweller	1 metal (H), 1 charcoal	8
Padlock	Mastercrafted	Mechanician	2 metal (H), 2 charcoal	14
Small lock	Superior	Jeweller	1 metal (H), 1 charcoal	5
Small lock	Mastercrafted	Mechanician	2 metal (H), 2 charcoal	9
Large lock	Superior	Jeweller	2 metal (H), 2 charcoal	7
Large lock	Mastercrafted	Mechanician	4 metal (H), 4 charcoal	12
Needle trap	Superior	Mechanician	1 metal (H), 1 metal (O), 2 charcoal	10
Needle trap	Mastercrafted	Mechanician	3 metal (H), 3 charcoal	18

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

Locks and Keys

Every lock comes with one key, included in the price of manufacture. The crafter can produce additional keys at that time, at a cost of 2 work units, 1 metal (H) and 1 charcoal per key (regardless of the complexity of the lock).

Keys are issued their own item cards, which lists the item code of the lock the key unlocks.

Jewellers can also copy an existing key, at the following costs:

Quality of lock	Skill	Costs	Work units
Standard	Jeweller	1 metal (H), 1 charcoal	2
Superior	Jeweller	1 metal (H), 1 charcoal	3
Mastercrafted	Mechanician	1 metal (H), 1 charcoal	5

Paper and Printing

Scroll paper can be invested via invocation. Polishing cloth is a consumable resource made from thick paper graded with gem dust, used by gemcutters to polish etched gems.

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.

Item	Quality	Skill	Costs	Work units
Book	Superior	Artisan	1 leather (O), 5 paper (O), 1 oil	10
Book	Mastercrafted	Papermaker	1 leather (H), 5 paper (H), 1 oil	20

Scroll vellum	Mastercrafted	Papermaker	1 leather (H), 1 fluid	3
Coarse polishing cloth	Superior	Artisan	1 paper (O), 1 powdered gemstone, 1 fluid	4
Medium polishing cloth	Mastercrafted	Papermaker	1 paper (H), 2 powdered gemstone, 1 fluid	8
Fine polishing cloth	Mastercrafted	Papermaker	1 leather (H), 3 powdered bone, 2 cream	16
Printing press	Superior	Mechanician	2 wood (H), 1 leather (H), 1 metal (O), 1 stone (O), 3 oil, 1 sand, 1 charcoal	12
Printing plate	Superior	Mechanician	1 stone (H), 1 sand	2

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 listed press is able to print lesser scrolls, printing 6 scrolls from one pot of a suitable magical ink; mechanicians can research presses able to print greater scrolls. Each printed scroll still needs to be magically invested with the Invest Scroll rite.

Writing Manuscripts Players don't need to buy mundane ink to write on a scroll or in a book; they can just write on the phys rep with a real pencil or pen. But where resources need to be tracked (for specific crafting or research projects), filling a scroll consumes 1 ink, while filling a book consumes 6 ink. An illuminated manuscript is the scribal equivalent of ornate quality, embellishing the manuscript with colourful images and gold foil. Illuminating a scroll costs a minimum of 2 ink and 1 powdered dye, while illuminating a whole book costs 10 ink, 3 powdered dye and 1 gold metal. Writing a manuscript doesn’t cost work units, but may have minimum roleplay or other requirements (e.g. uses of the Scholar skill).

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.
