Basic Crafting

Granted by the Alchemy, Enchanting, and Forging Skills.

Basic Build Items

Basic build items last for the duration of the event, until used, or until destroyed. A Break effect destroys a basic build item. These items are marked on the character sheet and cannot be traded between characters after creation. All Basic Build items require an appropriate prop in their description. This item is required to use the effect of a Basic Build Item. One Basic Crafting Component and 30 minutes of acting out the brewing, building, or enchanting creates 5 Basic Build Items or the Craft Effect from one appropriate craft.

Each skill can do a craft effect.

A tagged Item and prop – A character may repair a broken item, allowing it to be used once more. To repair a tagged item, the crafter must put their character number on the durability box to show that it has been repaired. Additionally, armor that has not lost all of its points and gained the broken condition may be repaired with no resource cost, no durability loss, and 5 minutes of acting out the repair.

Crafting: Augmentation

An Augmentation item is a tagged item with a set durability and different game effects. To craft an Augmented Item, a character must either have an Approved Project Design Card OR they must create one. The creation of an Approved Project Design Card takes time based on the items complexity. Crafters should discuss their plans with Plot prior to events, and attempts are tracked on character sheets for open transparency between plot and players. Players may use their Research skills and other resources to attempt to speed up the production of a Design Card. Plot may ask for a character to Playtest a design prior to approval. Final approval for Playtest Design Cards goes to the Player Base Votes at the end of each season.

If the character has the appropriate skills and an Approved Project Design Card, they may spend the resources listed on the card and 30 minutes of acting out the brewing, building, or enchanting to create the item.

All Augmented Items have the following standardized limiting rules.

Durability starts at 1 and may be no more than 16.
Charged items use 1 durability per use.
Items granting bonuses to damage may not exceed +1
Items dealing spell damage or healing may not exceed 20 points

Rare resources may be used but have no additional effect items.
