New Crafting Rules

Parent page Secrets of Crafting

Some of the new options presented in this section can be used to enhance or adjust the core crafting rules, while others can serve as partial or complete replacements. Each of the individual subsections of this chapter represents a different way to adjust or modify how player characters interact with item creation and acquisition in the game world. It’s recommended that you think carefully about which of these options you add to your game, adding only one subsection to your game at a time, at least until you’ve gotten a feel for the tone and impact they each have on your game and your players’ enjoyment. The crafting alternate rules are best used as adjustments, while nature crafting and story-based crafting can speak to the nature of the game itself.
