.: Help for jewelcrafting (skill)

Jewelcrafting is the art of shaping precious metals and gems into refined
adornments — rings, pendants, amulets, and bracelets. These pieces provide
subtle grace and enhancement to those who wear them. The skill is governed by
Dexterity, since fine work demands a steady hand.

Chrysalis settings are the bridge between jewelcrafting and enchanting. An
artificer uses these settings as vessels for living mutations, binding them
into items through long use.

━━━ Requirements ━━━

  Station:   A jeweler_bench must be in the room with you.
             The Jeweler's Workshop is south of Town Square in Startland.
  Materials: Copper wire, silver wire, gold wire, gems, and gem dust.
             Find them on the ground in the Workshop or loot from foraging.

━━━ Skill Progression ━━━

Jewelcrafting improves through use. Each completed craft attempt (success or
failure) has a chance to advance the skill. Jewelcrafting progresses faster per
use than combat skills because crafting opportunities are less frequent.

There is no trainer for jewelcrafting — practice is the only teacher.
