Elyth 0 Posted August 14, 2014 Author #23 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Elyth marched back into the shop on the 13th of August, muttering, "I really need to get more materials..."She was here to craft again, and took one of the silver ores, and hammered it until it was in the shape of a circle, and then melted it until it it could be shaped. She molded it until it could be seen as the contour of mold for a jewel.Elyth then carved the Amethyst she had on hand into a four-cornered flower shape, and fitted it in gently into the socket in the ring."Done!" She said, proud of herself, and shoved it into the sunlight coming in through the large window in the room.CD: 1 + 11 = 12APPROVED Item: Lilac Quartzcraft Ring PrototypeQuality: PerfectShop: Garden of ArtDescription: This ring was crafted from silver and embedded with a jewel of Amethyst.

Elyth 0 Posted August 14, 2014 Author #24 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Elyth took some of her last metal and heated it until it grew malleable. She took a plier and shaped it into a crossing pattern. The metal was then decorated with indentures in the shape of a circle. Slowly, Elyth inserted a glowing metal ball into the prison-shaped metal, and watched it begin to glow, as if in resonance with its new home. Shortly thereafter, Elyth closed the bottom of the prison entirely, twisting the metal ends until they closed completely. "Ding!" The system notified Elyth of the pendant's completion. "Identify!" she said whilst stringing a cord through the top of the pendant.

Elyth 0 Posted August 14, 2014 Author #25 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Another failure! Elyth was almost traumatized. She had attempted to craft a circular piece of wood, but apparently that was not viable next to a fire on that lazy night. Elyth cried and sat in a corner before leaving the shop to go to sleep at an inn. +1 EXP 8/13/14: Crafting Attempts Left: 0/3 EXP: 50/80 Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Elyth 0 Posted February 22, 2015 Author #26 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Elyth walked into her store after a long time away. She was here to use up her remaining materials, donate those items of uncommon rarity, and then switch professions to something else, as shown on the paper she had found at the Crafting Guild. EXTRA: Until 2/27/15, you have the option to SWITCH your profession by retaking the Earning a Living quest. However, if you switch professions, you lose all progress in your former profession and tools you may have used (such as a crafting needle if you were a tailor) are rendered useless to you. All items formerly for sale in your shop related to said profession (such as smith materials if you're becoming a performer) must be sold before the switch is made (either in your old shop or to a merchant). If you had the items that you crafted as part of your personal inventory, you may keep them. Elyth planned to become a cook. The things she could learn crossed over into real life skills, she reasoned. "Well, down to work!" Elyth took a stick of wood she had thrown into the bad items bin, and attempted to carve off the parts she had modified with her sculpting knife. First, those knobs on the left side, and then that other part... [id10578]-- LD9 SALVAGE FAIL! Too bad, Elyth thought as the wood broke, and a message popped up up informing her of the failure. She reached for a piece of ore and went to melt it in a tray in the furnace. [id10579]-- LD9 SALVAGE FAIL! Agh, the ore melted and slipped into the fire! A message popped up again, and Elyth swiped it away impatiently. She went to get the last salvageable material, a necklace she had haphazardly made with interlocking chains. She began to heat each chain, and split each chain apart before melting them down to make into a cube of metal. [id10580]-- LD7 SALVAGE FAIL! Well, she should have expected this, she realized, as the message popped up again and a piece of metal spilled into the fire, and the rest followed, drowning out the flames. Elyth sighed. She'd have to get all that muck out later-- oh, now the metal flew away in a wind of dissipating sparks. +0 mats (haha) Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Elyth 0 Posted February 22, 2015 Author #27 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Now she would get down to using up her mats. She had the ability to make 5 crafts a day, and she had 9 remaining materials for the Artisan profession. It would take her two days to finish things up here. It was the twenty-first of February. Yup, she'd have the chance to make the switch to the Cook profession. id10606-- CD[4 + 1] GOOD! Elyth took a piece of cypress wood and carved it in the shape of a sphere, and carved out a hole in the bottom. She took the knife and carved out a small circular cavern inside the wood, and began the inscribing of several intricate loops around the outer sides of the sphere. When she finished, she slid the Special Sphere inside the hole, and used a leftover piece of gold ore to seal up the bottom. The sphere began to glow, and a button materialized from the top, and the intricate designs began growing, expanding from the sphere's sides to even the bottom, and all in all it looked very picturesque. "Identify!" Elyth shouted after the message popped up, announcing a good item.Item: Mirage SphereQuality: CommonShop: Garden of ArtDescription: [As described by this: Here] The Mirage Sphere is a sphere-shape yellow device with an intricate design on its sides and a shining crystal ball inside. The Mirage Sphere is activated by clicking on a button at the top of the sphere and selecting the desired location via a pop-up menu.When activated, the sphere splits into two, with the top half rising and leaving behind a column of light. Once the top part of the sphere stops rising, five panels open up from the sides of the top of the sphere and the column of light is then changed into a sphere, forming a holographic map. Although a simple 2D map can be called out from the player's menu, the Mirage Sphere portrays the map features, like trees, in 3D and great detail. +[2 + 1] 3 EXP id10608-- CD[7 + 1] Common SPLOOSH ADD STUFFItem: Later Quality: CommonShop: Garden of ArtDescription: LaterEffect: N/A +[2 + 1] 3 EXP id10609-- CD[10 + 1] RARE! Elyth took another silver ore and put it in the furnace. She was going to try crafting a ring now, and unless it was a perfect object, she wouldn't try to keep it. She poured the melted silver into a small circular mold, and then took it out, quickly taking a needle and inscribing some swirls onto it. As soon as the ring cooled in the early morning breeze, Elyth put it down, sighing in the relief that she finished carving before the metal had cooled entirely. Just as a precaution, she dipped the ring in a basin of cool water, and pulled out as the message screen popped out, announcing an common item. Whoops. Anyway, "Identify!" Item: RingQuality: RareShop: Garden of ArtDescription: This silver ring gives something interesting Reminder to fill out effect! +[6 + 1] 7 EXP Two more crafts for the day. Elyth turned to her materials again. id10605-- CD[6 + 1] GOOD! Elyth took a piece of wood and her crafting knife. She was planning to switch to cook, right? Then she should make some cooking supplies. Elyth began to carve out a cutting board from the wood, making the two surfaces as straight as possible. As for the sides, Elyth sanded them. Two minutes after Elyth had decided that the item was complete, and after it had been soaked in water for a few seconds, and after that, when it had been put out to dry in the sun, a message popped up. "Identify!" Elyth shouted, not even looking at the first message screen. Item: Cooking BoardQuality: CommonShop: Garden of ArtDescription: A cooking board. Cut things on it.Effect: N/A +[2 + 1] 3 EXP id10604-- CD[11 + 1] PERFECT! Elyth decided to make an object for Alchemy. Sure, she wasn't planning on being an Alchemist, but she had some friends who were planning to or were Alchemists. This could help. "Let's see, Alchemists use ladles, I believe," she muttered, and took a piece of silver ore, and melted it in the furnace. After that, she poured the molten liquid into a spherical mold, and waited for it to somewhat dry before taking a needle and craving into the metal to make a pattern of swirls and circles. After that, she waited for it to dry by reading on of the books Nim had lent her, and then broke the mold by trying to smash it. Thank goodness the ladle itself didn't break, she thought, and dipped it in water to test its effectiveness. Yup, it worked like a charm, and a message screen popped up.

Elyth 0 Posted February 22, 2015 Author #29 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Second day of crafting! Elyth got straight to work after striding into the shop. id10610-- CD[11 + 1] PERFECT! Elyth took a piece of silver ore, and heated it up in the furnace. She poured the melted silver into a pre-made mold of a few wires, and waited for it to cool before punching the mold to release the whisk-shaped wires. The mold broke, and Elyth poured the leftover metal into a thin surfaced mold. She wrapped the thin surface around the handle of the whisk, and a message screen popped out, announcing the creation of a PERFECT object. "Heck yes!" Elyth shouted, and check the description. Item: Chef's Whisk Quality: Perfect Shop: Garden of Art Description: Made for a Cook, this whisk gives a bonus to the cook's ability to make wonderful foods! Effect: +1 CD [Cook] +[8 + 1] 9 EXP 2/22/2015 Crafting Attempts Left: 4/6 EXP: 84/160 RANK UP! ASSISTANT ARTISAN UNLOCKED! id10732-- CD[9 + 1] RARE! Elyth turned back to her silver, and melted another ore. She melted the stone in the furnace, and waited a few moments for it to somewhat solidify. Then, she heated it again, stirring it a bit, and then poured it into a thin mold. She waited for the shape to cool, before inscribing the material with some calligraphy. She had found it in the book from Nim, and wasn't really sure what it did, except that certain combinations of the runes would lead to upgrades or blessings on a crafted item. Laying her needle aside, she wiped her brow and left the ring out by the window, not noticing her actions until a message screen popped up. "Identify!" Item: Bracelet Quality: Rare Shop: Garden of Art Description: This bracelet lends to the bearer's ability to find loot. Effect: +2 LD +[5 + 1] 6 EXP id10734-- CD[8 + 1] UNCOMMON! Elyth took a piece of string and a piece of wood. She took her knife and carved the image of a compass into the wood. It was small, and not very easy to drill a hole into, but Elyth managed it anyway and slipped the string into the hole. "Identify!" Elyth shouted as the message appeared. Item: Pendant Quality: Uncommon Shop: Garden of Art Description: This pendant lends to the bearer's ability to find loot. Effect: +1 LD +[3 + 1] 4 EXP id10735- CD[12] PERFECT! "Hmm, my last craft as an Artisan..." Elyth muttered to herself, and began to design the best thing she could make, to end her career as an Artisan. "Let's make it like... moonlight. So strong that it can shatter moonlight. Or rather, shattering moonlight." Elyth began to gather the remaining materials- some silver, and sand. Good. She would use the sand to craft glass mirrors and the silver to enhance the sculpture's color and light, light was the ultimate presentation. The sculpture would have its significance in its ability to reflect light. Elyth began to sculpt the sand into several shards of nearly opaque mirrors, and then melded them together. She then sculpted the silver around the glass frame, as a pestle. The actual process wasn't very difficult, but the architecture of the thing was simply sublime. Elyth took a look at the sculpture and then at the room as a whole, which was being illuminated by the sunlight the glass mirrors reflected. A message screen appeared. "I-den-ti-fy!" Item: Moonlight Shatter [Large Sculpture] Quality: Perfect Shop: Garden of Art Description: A statue of shattering light, crafted through the miraculous combination of light, glass, and silver, inspires the artist to make the most of his or her latent abilities. This sculpture reflects light, and is meant to be placed in a crafter's shop.
