What I Wish to Build Next
My next wish, if the Realm permits it, will not simply be for another possession.
I want to create something that gives the Crafters Guild a physical purpose within the Realm.
I envision a proper workshop: a place where the crafts of MagicDuel can gather beneath one roof. A forge for the smith, tools for the mason, benches for the carpenter, equipment for the alchemist, and room for whatever strange crafts the Realm develops next.
I do not expect these things to create something from nothing. Quite the opposite.
A crafter should have to travel the Realm, gather the proper materials, understand what they are attempting to create, and bring those materials back to the Guild. The workshop should provide the means to transform those resources into something meaningful.
I want the Guild to become a reason to gather resources rather than merely hoard them.
A reason to learn the Forge rather than simply hear stories about it.
A reason for experienced players to teach those attempting their first creation.
A reason for someone to look at a piece of wood, metal, stone, herbs, toxic plants, or some obscure forgotten resource and wonder:
What could I make from this?
I would like to see the Crafters Guild become useful to people who are not members of it as well. Bring us an idea. Bring us materials. Bring us something strange and ask whether it can be made.
Perhaps the answer will be no.
Perhaps the attempt will fail spectacularly.
That is still crafting.
My wish is not merely to resurrect an old Alliance and wear its badge.
I want to build the workshop that gives it a reason to exist.
And once that exists, I want to see what the Realm chooses to make with it.. Forging the best tools will help me with this goal. I want to for a 2 handed sword named Zweihander with the iron, gems, and bones of my vanquished foes. |
