Seeing a calm open area before you, you decide it's time for a little basic resource gathering. You start by heading down to the pine forest below, with an axe-shaped power, you begin to cut down some of the trees, and cleaning them off, ending up with about 20 good sized pine logs. Taking these back, you stop along the way, finding a small staircase down. Inside a stone room you find it is filled with wooden barrels. Checking inside you find one that is filled with two bags, both containing seeds. You decide to grab this and head back.

I request equipment for the following task.
I craft by making a 'living' metalcloth mask with a woven starcloth backing bound with RAMium metal. It will shape itself as its wearer wishes.
I Claim 2 units of off-green plasma and 1 unit of RAMium metal.
deciding to try your hand at a little Milinery, you ask the ship for some equipment. It produces a plastic head for you to hold your items on while you work them. +1 equipment [Milinery] -250 influence
attempt: 14+20+1=35
However even with your new gear, something about making the metal move the way you wish it in mask form is giving you trouble. You ponder a bit, then decide to wait until you understand things a bit more.
+35 milinery exp
note: since your craft action failed, your inventory is still full, therefore extra claims are ignored.
Well, I have inventory space now, I'll go Gathering and maybe with my experience in gathering I'll be able to find something decent.
attempt: 13+5=18
Experience helps, but as Matis shows, talent can go a long way. However this time you are faced with an overabundence of choices. There's alot of resources right before you, but you can't seem to decide what to go after. This question bugs you for hours, and before you know it, the time has run out, and you return to the ship empty handed and frustrated with yourself.

Make the Wakizashi-To out of steel I beam.
attempt: 73
quality: 9
base influence: 62+9=71
Finally getting over your crafting slump, you take up a bar of steel and begin pounding away with your powers. You fold the metal several times, giving it a sharp edge, and warp a metal hilt to one end, as you curve the short blade just so. The final product isn't as impressive as a native antique one, but the sword is functional and should bring a good price in trade.

!base influence: 71!I make a foot and a half long chain out of 1 chromium bar.
attempt: 38+20=58
quality: 23
base influence: 57+23=80
Taking a bar of the chromium metal from storage, you melt it down and form it into very tiny rods. Using your power as a rung maker, you bend the rods into links on a chain and connect them around each other. Eventually you have a decent sized chain from the progress.
+58 metalcrafting exp
+80 crafting influence
+ Chromium Link chain
!base influence: 80!Remove the lobster's soul and mind, and transfer it into the ball. The end product should be a ball with a mind that can bounce and roll around by itself (possibly run over some rats, etc.).
attempt: 69+20=89
quality: 57
base influence:8+57+39(sphere)=104
A path down the dark arts proves no trouble to you. Drawing a seven pointed pentagram on the floor of your work area with your powers, you sit cross legged in the middle. A long latin chant repeats itself numberous times as you move the sphere and the lobster around before you. As the chant climaxes, you smash the lobster into bits against the sphere. A short shockwave of blue magic emits from the collision and the whole of the lobster is absorbed into the sphere. In the end, you can tell that there is a life force within the sphere itself as it moves about on it's own if not watched.
+89 soul trapping exp
+104 crafting influence
+ Lobster Soul Sphere(alive)
!base influence: 104!- Large dense sphere of steel, chrome and copper, adorned with off-green plasma
!base influence:79!- violet lobster(2-3 pieces of violet chitin, 10oz ichor, 2oz lobster offal, 40oz crab meat, massive violet lobsterclaw, 2 deep red lobster eyes, 8 violet lobster legs, 1 violet lobster tail)
One more turn down, a few more actions done. I personally liked the last soul trap spell. 
remember to check for any mistakes, and let me know if you find any.
