Rituals: This ability is used to all challenges to retest use of Ritae only. It does not grants levels of Ritae itself.
Crafts Crafts not listed here are assumed to use a comparable system - specifics should be clarified with Staff before anything is finalized.
- Each level of Crafts takes 2 weeks to be applied - for example, a Crafts 3 item would take 6 weeks to be completed.
- Each level of Crafts requires a challenge, retest applicable Crafts Ability.
- Any failed challenges may be retried with the Repair Ability, retest Repair.
- You may not retry more challenges on a given item than your levels of Repair.
Example: A PC attempts to create a Crafts 5 sword and loses 2 of the 5 challenges. They have Repair 2, thus allowing a second attempt on both lost challenges. One of those is won, resulting in a Crafts 4 sword at the conclusion of 10 weeks.
- Ammunition Crafting: Ammunition crafting only takes 2 weeks to complete, regardless of craft level being used.
