The Avlis Crafting System (ACS) enables PCs to make items out of natural resources. It has several components:

Alchemy

In Avlis, Alchemy is the art of creating potions that emulate the effect of a spell. One gathers components needed, and mixes them to create the potion desired. There are many alchemists on Avlis, the publically best known ones being the alchemists and herbalists of the organisation AKN (The Guild for Advancement of Knowledge in Nature).

Alchemy is done on an Alchemist's Table.

Armorcrafting

Armorcrafting entails the making of helmets and armor, from padded clothes to Mithral carapaces, and more. Armorcrafting is done on an Anvil.

See also: AAAA, The Avlis Arms and Armour Association.

Blacksmithing

Blacksmithing is prmarily about making ingots of suitable materials, but can be used for things not included in Armorcrafting or Weaponsmithing as well, such as arrowheads. Blacksmithing is done with a Forge and an Anvil.

Carpentry

Carpentry entails the making of bows, composite bows, crossbows, arrows, shields, instruments, and more. Carpentry involves gathering and chopping wood from trees to create these things as well. Carpentry is done with a Sawhorse.

Gemcutting

The polishing and cutting of gems to be used in Jewelcrafting. Gemcutting is done with a Jewelcrafting Table.


Herbalism

Herbalism is the creation of bandages, ointments and poultices. Many of the things created with Herbalism have a use in Alchemism as well. Herbalism is used with an Alchemist's Table.

Jewelcrafting

Once the gems used have been polished, they can be used to craft trinkets, such as amulets and rings. Often, these things are imbued with the quality of some being, enchanting the wearer in some way. Jewelcrafting is done on a Jewelcrafting table. It is a well known fact that Jewelcrafting is harder and more expensive to advance in than other crafts. This is intended, and is considered a Dead Horse

Mining

The excavation of minerals from the base rock, the minerals can then be smelted to ingots later. You need a suitable pick to be able to mine. Metal ores and gems require different picks.

More experienced gem miners can "crack" a flourspar or amethyst vein to possibly expose better gem veins. ((OOC: The "cracking command" is enabled by left-clicking or "using" the gem vein with a gem pick equipped. This enables an experienced miner to dispose of the vein quickly, allowing a new gem vein to respawn later, and not leave an area to be entirely populated with flourspars and amethysts.))

Tailoring

Creating any sort of dress, outfit or armor made of cloth. Often, proficient tailors can make their creations magical by using the right materials. Tailoring is done with a Bolt of Cloth or a Loom.

Trapcrafting

See Trapcrafting forum thread.

Weaponsmithing

The creation of weapons by forming the proper materials to the form desired and attaching it to a handle. Weaponsmithing is done with an Anvil.
