Stat Templates 03/25/2008 11:10 PM CDT
Something I think I'd like to see (in theory) is stat dependent templates. What do I mean? I mean you're hammering away on a glinukgobly-goo (it's probably s'kra for something) and you get a response such as:

no matter how hard you try, you just don't seem to be agile enough to shape that weapon.
as you begin to swing your hammer, you pause a moment and realize you don't have any idea how to continue.
as you slam your hammer down, the metal doesn't even dent. Maybe you should try excercising once in a while?

Templates requiring minimum stats in strength, agility, intelligence.... could probably make an arguement for wisdom, maybe even stamina or reflex, but I will kill anyone who argues for charisma. Kill you dead!

I am imagining barbarian weapon templates that have a roar, dance, berserk, or meditation requirement to craft and embueing such with effects of those abilities.

What if you were crafting a pewter mirror?

Hmmm, that gives me an idea....Oh Dartenian?

Make it look like an accident.
