This is the start of the gnome cultural.
Start with Vidi Cogsworthy (Ak'Anon 830, -128) on top of palace (hes on find)
You say, 'Hail, Vidi Cogsworthy'
Vidi Cogsworthy says 'Wha? Who are you? Go away! You're breaking my [concentration].'
You say, 'concentration?'
Vidi Cogsworthy says 'Yes, I'm trying to concentrate on my calculations! You see, I discovered yesterday that based upon the gnomish arm-torso aspect ratio our current [armor] designs are actually patterned with suboptimal. . . Sub. . . Uh. . .. Blast! You've broken my concentration!'
You say, 'armor?'
Vidi Cogsworthy says 'Yes, well, before you interrupted me I was trying to redesign Ak'Anon's armor patterns. I believe with my newest calculations, I can increase the efficiency of our designs by a significant margin. Assuming, of course, I can finish my calculations. It's hard to work with strangers running up and hailing me all day!' Vidi sighs and then continues, 'Tell you what, if you leave me alone, I'll make you a pattern book with my new designs. Would you be [interested] in that, or perhaps you're more interested in [symbols] I've been studying?'
You say, 'interested'
Vidi Cogsworthy says 'Great. To make you a pattern book, I'll need some zombie skin and darkbone marrow from the Estate of Unrest. I can use those to create the parchment and ink for the book. I'll also need some of the battle beads from Crushbone to help bind the book and a preserved orc hide to create the cover. While you're out gathering these things, I can finish my calculations. Hopefully in peace
Turn in one each of the things he asks for in the normal unstack fasion.
Zombie skins (zombies in unrest)
Darkbone marrow (darkbine skellies in unrest)
battle beads (orc centurions in crushbone)
preserved orc hide (orcs in crushbone)
Vidi Cogsworthy says 'Hey, it's you! Here's your book. Turns out my protractor was broken and I miscalculated the average angle of incidence of the gnomish shoulder blade. So, uh, you may feel some tightness in your left shoulder when wearing armor made by this pattern book. Just don't do any jumping jacks and you should be fine. Otherwise my design was a huge improvement! Best of luck, Sherei!'
To get the patterns combine:
If you want molds for smithing plate or chain combine the book with :
a huge block of clay
a compacted backpack
sculpting tools
a high quality firing sheet in a kiln
I did not do this... seems easy enough though
If you want patterns for tailoring leather or silk combine the book with :
a compacted backpack (I got min in East Freeport from Sissin Tanner @ 46, -548, upstairs in Leather and Hide (on find)
large bottle of ink (I got min in East Freeport from Sissin Tanner @ 46, -548, upstairs in Leather and Hide (on find)
quill(keeping in mind the new change it maybe "a quill"
roll of plain parchment (I got min in East Freeport from Sissin Tanner @ 46, -548, upstairs in Leather and Hide (on find)
in a book binding (I got min in East Freeport from Sissin Tanner @ 46, -548, upstairs in Leather and Hide (on find)
To make the cultural sewing kit you simply combine:
your cultural metal (small brick of fortified Bronze sold by Clockwork Smith XIII in mines of malfunction, LOC 2166, -541 (on find) 18Pp 1Gp 6Sp 3Cp)
with a needle mold and thimble mold
in your cultural forge(Which may be mislabeled right now as "forge")
To make the cultural needle combine:
your culture's essence (Clockwork Essence)
with an embroidery needle(made the normal way)
in a jeweler's kit
That is as far as I have gotten so far. Hope it helps
