attempt: 6
Taking a bar of steel from the group stockpile you begin work on a new weapon. Heating the area around the steel until it is glowing hot, you begin to flatten and fold the blade-to-be. However, halfway through the process one of your wolf pups gets curious. Sticking it's head in under your arm right as you swing a hammer shaped from power at the sword. You reactly as quickly as possible to avoid smashing the wolf's head into the blade, and instead your hammer clips the blade and sends it flying. It smashes against the bulkhead of the ship, and several splinters shoot off, causing small fires. One of the other wolf cubs in particular was sleeping nearby, and it's yelps of pain echo through the ship as it catches fire. The ship reacts by throwing a force field up around both the wolf cub and the shards of metal, a small opening emerges in the wall of the work area sucking everything inside the force field away. A small beep informs you that you have been charged 60 influence for the service, and both your blade in progess and one of your wolf cubs is gone beyond recovery.

attempt: 70+20=90
quality: 12
base influence: 3+12+64(plasma)=79
Applying your newfound information however is another matter entirely. Using the same general principle as the last time, you use some of your new plasma to try and create more plasma out of the copper ore. You do manage to spread things out and make a new group of plasma, but most of the material is consumed in the process. Even as skilled as you are, something about the green plasma dosen't like fusing with the copper at this point.

!base influence: 79!Craft my pure copper ore into a shield
attempt: 1 ;o
Taking two pieces of pure copper, you begin to compress the material together to form a strong shield. Copper by itself usually isn't a very good material for armor, but you figure if you can compress it enough, the atoms will allign and things will go well. They don't.
The alarms start blaring almost immediately, and the force field just barely manages to contain the massive explosion. Everyone else working in the area at the time are thrown off their feet, as a shockwave manages to escape before the ship could stop it.
Apparently fusing two atoms together is a BAD thing, the ship just barely manages to save you, but some of your inventory is vaporized in the contained atomic blast. Two of the three eggs are gone, and all the copper you were holding got blasted into dust. The staff is now perminantly embedded into the floor of your work area, and will take a new crafting action to remove it, but it will not be without damage. The bird managed to actually survive, being a quick thinking animal it hid behind the shield that amazingly managed to deflect the blast.
After the energy is finally contained, and the force field is released, a loud beep sound echos around Fireheart's work area, and a female voice sternly says, "Damage to ship on atomic level will not be tolerated, you will be charged seven hundred and fifty influence for repairs."

attempt: 23+20+6=49
You leave the ship and manage to actually find a room with some items in it. It looks like some sort of crew quarters, with a few potted plants, a bed to one side, and some glass chairs around a similar table. However, the current resident of the room appears wearing a blue jumpsuit and blinks a few times upon seeing you, before tapping a piece of jewelry on his chest and yelling at you to stay put. Thinking it a better idea to leave, you take off, and easily loose the crewman in the twisting corridors before making it back to the ship, empty handed, but safe.
+49 gather exp(~levelup!~)
Using 2 steel bars, one chromium bar, one copper bar and the two lumps of green plasma create a solid steel-chrome ball approx basketball-size decorated with bands of the copper. There should be two moderately-deep indentations, containing the green plasma, making them glow (additionally, the containing "forcefield" for lack of a better word, should keep the overall round shape of the rest and keep the indents from affecting the rolling performance). The bands should be in magical-looking shapes and have a ring around the indents, and the whole thing should look old, like an ancient artifact. Keep the copper and steel unoxidized, though. Grab the most energetic of the crabs/lobsters.
attempt: 39+20+2+1=62
quality: 23
base influence: 17+23+39(plasma)=79
Calling upon your metalcrafting skills, you combine the three metals into a hugely dense metal sphere. Adorning the object with some plasma in two indentations you give the globe a glowing effect, along with a strong heat source. You attempt to make it old looking, but somehow the overall effect dosen't quite come through. It's still fairly impressive though. Afterwards you round up the lobster from storage for later mad scientist experiments.

Working over some of the copper ore, you first smelt it down to bars, and then start sculpting a skeleton. Attaching the glass encased skull to the end, you manage link together all of your copper bones in a vaguely feline shape.
