- 1 slightly mishapen oak log
Waiting list:
Craft a pan flute out of the warped block of wood and place it into personal inventory.
attempt: 5+20 = 25
Another attempt at using the wood proves just as unproductive. You focus your powers on making several small pipes, but only manage to pulverize the block of warped wood. You now hold a pile of sawdust and splinters.
+25 woodcrafting
- 1 slightly mishapen oak log.
+ pile of sawdust and splinters
Note: I gave you woodcrafting this turn, while last time it was sculpting. Statues and solid objects will be sculpting, more complicated items will be crafting.
Gather. This time I'm looking for gems.
attempt: (difficulty 42)68+20=89(-42= 46)
quality: 92
quantity: 32-92=1
Setting out to gather once more you decide to look for some gems out amongst the rocks. However your sparkling objctive eludes you. On the bright side, you manage to find a small outcrop where a glassy grey material has collected. Touching it with your hands makes the material melt, so you use some of your divine power to create a globe to bring some of the solid fluid back to the ship.
+88 gather exp(~levelup!~)
+ 1qt solid grey fluid
Note: since so many seem to want to specifiy what they gather, I will allow a difficulty based check on this. Based on the world difficulty, you check it and if you succeed you get what you were looking for, otherwise I use the unmodified roll. However do note, that you will recieve the exp and bonuses for only the roll you use. so if your unmodified is 90+ but after the difficulty it takes it down to like 53, you will only get 53 exp, and no crit. This should balance out people getting specific things.
Attempt to make a Piccolo out of some wood.
attempt: 34
Grabbing one of the remaining oak logs you set to work. Unfortunately your still a little shaky from hibernation and your powers only to margainal warping of the log.
+34 woodcrafting exp
+ 1 slightly mishapen oak log
Action: I will attempt to, this time, find enlightenment by meditating on top of a cactus. I will also give the needles to the group.
attempt: 66+1+1=68
quality: 19
quantity: 15-19=1
Giving your needles to group inventory, you head back out into the world. Sitting atop a cactus may seem like a good place to find enlightenment, but it mostly leads to bad issues while sitting later... You do however manage to find a small red flower on one of the cacti. You pluck it and return to the ship.
+68 gather exp
+ 1 small red cactus flower
Gather
attempt: 54
quality: 33
quantity: 48-33=15
You stride out into the canyon, with the intent on finding something of worth. After a mile or so you spot some nest-like objects dotting the side of the cliff. Probably from some tiny form of hummingbird, or similar alien creature. With a little searching you manage to come out with 5 tiny grape-sized eggs, white with purple blotches.
+54 gather exp
+ 5 blotched purple, white eggs, about the size of a grape.
See if any of the metal that we have is electrically conductive. If it is, create a hollow metal sphere using it, witha diameter of around the avergae forearm.
attempt: 67+20= 87
quality: 4
base influence: 69+4=73
Checking over the small chunks of rock and metal that was obtained yesterday, you determine that the metal should suit your needs for conductivity. Claiming two hunks, you melt down the metal with your powers, discarding the remaining rock back into group storage. Setting your mind to forming a sphere you mold the metal into a hollow round ball, about twice the size of a basketball.
+87 metal crafting
+73 crafting influence
+ 1 large lime green metal sphere
!base influence: 73!Note: you have obtained enough influence to buy some equipment. To do so, list what sort of equipment you want to buy(name the skill it helps) and add it to your next action as a free action.
Much fewer crit rolls this time around, the dice do seem to hate Nevets though, the 2nd time his crafting talent has saved him from horror. 
Also, Aristothenes is having a good run on influence gain. 1 turn left before world shift. Use it wisely... *echos into whatever*
