Pearls/feathers
« on: July 20, 2011, 12:38:01 pm »
I've been attacked by a lot of elk birds recently, and I was figuring out what to do with the feathers. I figure I'd add a tag like [HORN] or [TOOTH] to them so I could decorate things with them, but would [PEARL] work? Is [PEARL] even a tag I can add?

Should I just try it and see?

[PEARL] is a legitimate tag. I'm not sure if it works though. Shouldn't be to hard to see.

I add [SHELL] to feathers, mostly to make them count as material for moods. 

The other day, a child went into a strange mood and made a forgotten beast feather helmet, decorated with various gems.  I'm picturing an utterly fabulous feather hat.

[PEARL] should work too, allowing you to use the otherwise useless 'make pearl crafts' job.  I don't think pearl is ever called for by strange moods though.  I've never tried it.

...and thus, another 'the way it should be' RAW edit gets added to my list.

Thanks!

It totally does. Decorations with pearl as yet untested, but pearl crafts are really valuable <whatever> gems. Right now they are jabberer feather gems, so I may change them to [SHELL] or [TOOTH].
