    [New Skill] Glassworks

    Glassworks

    requiring sand, fire, old metal pipe and oven (a new mason or architect recipe)

    Recipes:

    Raw glass - needed as a raw construct to make glass items

    Lens' - a component for looking glasses

    Bottles (multiple types) - a container to hold liquids

    Glass shards - a component in weapon crafting

    Glass weapons - weak durability, very shard, high damage (slashing)

    Vials - used in alchemy to create potions, dyes, paint, poisons and other chems

    Windows (multiple sizes)- for architect in more modern constructed buildings, could increase comfort bonus when in buildings.

    Dining ware - Fluff deco

    When used with dyes it could be possible to make colored glass for certain glasswork recipes.

    I think your idea is rather transparent.

    Only problem being that a simple fire would never be hot enough to make glass. I'm not positive and don't feel like looking it up but a glass kiln is somewhere around 2000 deg F. Seems like the evolution of things would most certainly have metal working before glass work just because of the ease of production.

    I might agree with you but the difference is we're not technologically evolving like we did in history, We are all from current times, so all it would take is a bellow as a new tool to increase the heat. Granted it doesn't have to come out before anything else, it was merely an idea for a skill down the road, as we are currently low on professions.

    Definitely an idea worth looking into eventually. I like your ideas.

    I did see something somewhere about glass working being a new skill, But how fast we get there I have no idea.

    From the home page:
    Your memories of the past with its machines, computers, bright lights and buildings reaching for the skies are vague and ever fading, a distant and unreal dream. You grow accustomed to ancient ways that now once again rule the world
    But with this, Who know what will come first. This time the egg my come before the chicken.

    From the about page:
    Xsyon is an apocalyptic fable

    Woot. I get all excited when I see the intention and potential in those books. I wish Xsyon would make it.
