Crafting Designs

From Curious Pastimes Wiki

The following designs are known to crafters with the relevant skills.

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 any 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 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
Light Chain Hardened Hardening 6 metal (H), 3 leather (H), 2 oil 16
Studded Cloth Hardened Hardening 6 cloth (H), 3 metal (H), 2 charcoal 16
Studded Leather Hardened Hardening 6 leather (H), 3 metal (H), 2 charcoal 16
Heavy Chain Hardened Hardening 9 metal (H), 8 sand 18
Plate Hardened Hardening 9 metal (H), 8 sand 20

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 1 work unit per staple; up to three staples can be made 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 Blacksmith 1 metal (O), 1 charcoal for three 2

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 Costs Work units
Gilt or Inlay Ornate Artisan, Jeweller 1 jewellery metal, 1 charcoal 2
Engraving Ornate Artisan, Jeweller N/A 4
Glass or gems Ornate Artisan, Jeweller 1 glass (H) or 3 gems 3

Note: Metal can be copper, silver or gold

Gemstones

Gemstones start out cloudy 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
First Polish Gem Cleansing 1 gem, 1 sand 9 or 27

Note: Cutting a polished stone or polishing a cut stone requires 27 work units.

A cloudy gem lists three 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, 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.

Magical Tools

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 Casts Work units

Printing Press Superior Printer 2 wood (H), 1 stone (O), 1 leather (H), 1 metal (O), 2 oil, 1 sand, 1 charcoal 12
Printing Plate Superior Printer 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, printers 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); printers can research presses able to print greater scrolls.

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

Weapons

High quality weapons may be enchanted or otherwise magically invested; a small or one-handed weapon can be inlaid with an amalgam to make a brand. A high quality weapon allows a scout or warrior to use skills such as Disarming, Strikedown Blow or Treacherous Blow more often.

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 Casts Work units
Gilt or Inlay Ornate Blacksmith 1 jewellery metal, 1 charcoal 2
Engraving Ornate Blacksmith N/A 4
Glass or Gems Ornate Blacksmith 1 glass (H) or 3 gems 3

Note: Metal can be copper, silver or gold.

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 (O) with silver metal and spending half again as many work units (in both cases rounding up).

Example:

Elspeth Wolfsbane has the skills Blacksmith, Weaponsmith and Metallurgist, and is forging a mastercrafted silver one-handed sword to kill the werewolf who murdered her father.

A mastercrafted one-handed sword normally costs 2 metal (H), 2 metal (O), 4 charcoal and 12 work units to craft; Elspeth’s silver sword will cost 2 metal (H), 1 metal (O), 1 silver, 4 charcoal and 18 work units.

Metallurgists can also make silvering powder, a fine powder combining iron filings, powdered silver and other ingredients, which can be rubbed onto any normal metal weapon by a skilled blacksmith to grant it the call Silver for 1 minute.

One unit of silvering powder costs 1 unit of silver metal, 1 unit of powdered metal and 1 work unit to make.
