World Difficulty: 5 Outside the view portal is an image of a rugged mountainside. Far below pine trees grow scattered around a river filled with evil looking fish, and up above an eagle the size of a bi-plane circles the mountain. Two shiny black statues of short squat beings sit on either side of a large two story archway tunnel leading into the depths of the mountain.

Make a gladius out of the steel bar
attempt: 43+20=63
quality: 60
base influence: 90+60=150
Taking the last bar of steel from group storage you set to work making another weapon. The forging is relatively easy, a litle heat applied here, a little flattening here. And you have your weapon.

!base influence: 150! *gasp* you used the skill you allready have, heh
Craft. I use 10 of the pines and one bag of seed to make my miniture biome capsule more of a forest feel. The rest of the pines and seeds can be put in the group storage.
attempt: 77-10=67
quality: 37
base influence: 30+37+91=158
Condensing and shrinking some of your pines and a few of the seeds you add them to your biome. The biome grows a bit, and the tiny animals frolick among the new trees and enjoy some strawberries as they grow. Overall however it becomes a little more cluttered and harder to see what all is inside.

!base influence: 158!Grab the Glass Goblet and Van de Graaff Generator from group storage as well as the Crab Shell Shield from my inventory and go in search of beings to Trade with.
attempt: 42+1=43
Grabbing the goblet and the gadget, you head out for the statue bordered hole into the mountain. However just inside you find three large blocks of rock that you can only assume are floodgates. Looking around you can see some mechanisms connected to the gates, but no way to open. You yell a few times trying to get the attention of someone inside, but to no avail. Eventually you give up and head back to the ship.

Craft a Tanto-Kama... (Look up Tanto anr/or Kama) Out of steel I beam.
attempt: 65+1=66
quality: 89
base influence: 59+89=148
You decide to make a specialized knife for your day of work, and look to the group storage for some of the steel left over from the I-beam. However, previous creations have emptied the beam of all useable units, and you have to improvise. Taking a handful of copper ore, and two of the chromium bars you set to work. Fusing the metals together and forging the knife proves fairly easy. The quality of the final knife is quite impressive and you take a moment to admire your work.

Using the crabs, the offals, the legs, eyes, claws, a battery pack and some steel, meld them all together into a giant, friendly super-crab (live) approx. 2m tall. Place all but giant crab in group storage.
attempt: 47+20=67
quality: 76
base influence: 77+76=153
Like a man possessed you start grabbing half the materials left in the group storage. Crabs, scorpion parts, batteries, all go into your work station. However with the lack of steel you have to make do with some copper. You grab a large amount of the ore and get to work. Using your powers to magically melt every thing but the batteries, you fuse the organic materials into a creature of your own creation. Taking the metal you fold it over upon itself several times creating a reinforced copper shell for your beast. Implanting the batteries into the legs once again, you combine everything together into a large electro crab similar to your other one.

!base influence: 153!Change of plans, I abandon 3 units of woven starcloth and claim 3 units of off-green plasma.
I craft my linking a bar of RAMium metal to a unit of off-green plasma and forming them into an amulet with ethereal spiders inside, the wearer of the amulet can sense and control the spiders. The spiders can toggle their form between spiders and clouds of spiderstuff that soaks into whatever they are on, becoming otherwise undetectable and allowing the wearer of the amulet to track the subject until the spider is recalled.
attempt: 93+20=113
quality: 42
base influence: 66+42+39(plasma)+56(metal)=203
The calling of Hephaestus himself seems to flow through you. After a quick shifting of your inventory you begin your grand design. Twirling your fingers about you in intricate patterns your living metal forms into tiny semi-transparent gem-like spheres. The plasma shatters into several pieces that stretches and crackles into tiny spider shapes. With a clap of your hands each sphere absorbs a crackling plasma spider flawlessly. Looking like bits of lightning trapped in amber like a bug, the bright green spiders react to your powers as you instruct the necklace for it's magical properties. In the end the object is of mythical quality and impressive enough to please even the dullest observer.

!base influence: 203! Trade just dosen't seem to be possible this cycle. Though this turn you guys slaughtered that group stockpile. In the future be sure and check what all is in storage before you use it. There was one bar of steel and three people trying to use it. This leads to me being creative with other materials.
