Diatribe

I've split crafts into three categories:

• Mundane Crafts(Fire, Earth, Air, etc.),
• First Age Crafts (Magitech, Elsewhere, Permanence, etc.), and
• Exotic Crafts (Fate, Pandemonium, Necrosurgery, etc.)

Mundane Crafts may have any number of specialties attached, above and beyond the normal three dot limitation. However, only three dots may be used on any roll. First Age Crafts are limited to three dots total of specialties, Ever, so choose wisely. Exotic Crafts are judged on a per Craft basis, starting with Mundane rules. Use of artifacts to enhance Craft Specialties are counted as Artificial Specialties and are permanent and unchangeable after XP has been spent.

First Age Crafts

Craft (Magitech)

Mins: Fire ••, Air ••, and other Craft •

This is the main First Age craft used to forge most of the artifacts of the first age.

Craft (Permanence)

This Craft is used primarily to get rid of a supposed project's final repair rating. It can remove a number equal to the rating from a repair rating IF a plan is made using it, and followed, before construction begins.

This craft deals with not only the perception of warped spaces, but the actual designs of warped space. Used in the construction of Gates of Auspicious Passage (pg. 50, WoLA).

Comments

Several Charms are being used in play along with these Crafts and I figured I'd mention them:

The Perfect Moment (IsawaBrian), Felicitous Multi-Stage Wonder Preparation (IsawaBrian), and the entire Phantom Craftsman Assembly tree (IanPrice)
