<h2>USING MATERIALS TO PAY FOR PROJECTS</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If you happen to gather precious materials during your adventures, you may
|
||
use them to pay for the costs of a Project. The Game Master has final say on
|
||
which materials and ingredients can help you cover the cost of a Project.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If the Game Master requests a given ingredient or material because of the
|
||
invention's potency (as described under step 3 of the flowchart on page
|
||
134), said ingredient or material cannot also be used to pay for the
|
||
Project's costs.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<h3>HIRING HELPERS</h3>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If an inventor wants to increase the daily amount of progress, or if they
|
||
want to work on multiple Projects at the same time, they may want to hire
|
||
helpers.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Each helper is a competent worker or assistant who will ask for a pay
|
||
equal to half of the Project’s total cost.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Each helper will generate 1 additional progress at the end of each day.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The sticky core found inside Elemental Slimes can be used to produce several
|
||
forms of energy.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The rules for Projects are very flexible, but they are designed to allow
|
||
characters to create something unique and never seen before, not to craft
|
||
items that can normally be found or purchased, such as equipment — they
|
||
should be used to provide innovative solutions to problems and obstacles.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>
|
||
If the character wants to create multiple copies of an invention, each is
|
||
a separate Project. Turning inventions into easy-to-produce items will
|
||
inevitably break the game. For Tinkerers who want to customize equipment,
|
||
look at the Heroic Skill Upgrade (<a href="/books/core/#page-217"
|
||
>page 217</a
|
||
>).
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Projects require time: if the group focuses on a long Project, Villains
|
||
will certainly not sit idly.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Interlude scenes are perfect for narrating a Project's development.</li>
|
||
</ul>
