Plant materials are worth about 1 cp for 10 hemp plants, 1 cp for 1 cotton plant, and 200 cp for 1 flax plant. These are assumed because they are not detailed anywhere, and the values are based on my best guess.</p><p></p><p>Daonil starts off his career by buying his tools for 20 gp (<strong>-20 gp, +4</strong>, 1 rank)</p><p></p><p><strong>Gain Rank 2:</strong> His goal is to eventually rush in making four backpacks (DC 15 each) so he gets enough hemp to make 12 cords, and buys 12 high-quality hides for a total of 12 gp, 6 cp. (<strong>-32.0006 gp, +4</strong>, 1 rank)</p><p>He takes 10 when making the hemp cords</p><p>First attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316632" target="_blank">fails</a> (-1 cord and hide)</p><p>Second attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316633" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Third attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316635" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fourth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316637" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fifth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316638" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Sixth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316639" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Seventh attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316640" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Eighth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316641" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Ninth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316642" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p></p><p>This qualifies him to gain his next skill rank, but he's going to use the rest of his materials to make up his losses. This time he takes his time and takes 10 each of the 3 attempts.</p><p></p><p>He takes his 7 backpacks and sells them to travelers for 2gp each. (<strong>-18.0006 gp, +5</strong>, 2 ranks)</p><p></p><p>He needs to recoup his losses so he makes some belt pouches for profit.</p><p>First he buys 100 hemp plants for 10 cp, and 20 low-quality hides for 20 sp. (<strong>-18.2016 gp, +5</strong>, 2 ranks)</p><p>He takes 10 on all of the cords and pouches, selling the pouches for 1 gp each. (<strong>+1.7984 gp, +5</strong>, 2 ranks)</p><p></p><p><strong>Gain Rank 3:</strong> His next goal is to rush 4 spell component pouches (DC 16). For this he buys 72 spiderling webs for 36 sp, and 12 high-quality hides for 12 gp. (<strong>-10.5616 gp, +5</strong>, 2 ranks)</p><p>He takes 10 when making the silk thread and silk cords, and then starts making spell component pouches.</p><p>First attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316650" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Second attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316652" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Third attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316653" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Fourth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316654" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Fifth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316658" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p></p><p>Happy that he did well with those, he takes his time with the rest of his materials and gains another skill rank. He sells his spell component pouches for 55 gp. He then buys enough materials for 9 more and sells those for a profit of 3.97 gp each. (<strong>+80.1684 gp, +6</strong>, 3 ranks)</p><p></p><p>More confident in his abilities and now flushed with cash, he talks to a local blacksmith about getting some studs made. <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316687" target="_blank">He negotiates</a> a discount on studs if he buys 1000, getting them for 6sp each instead of 7sp. He also swings a bulk deal on some hides, buying 100 medium-quality hides. He wanted to get a <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316689" target="_blank">better deal</a> but only got a 2 sp discount on each hide. The total for the studs and hides was 108 gp. (<strong>-27.8316 gp, +6</strong>, 3 ranks)</p><p>He takes this material and makes 20 suits of studded leather armor, which each sell for 25 gp. (<strong>+472.1684 gp, +6</strong>, 3 ranks)</p><p>He then gets to work on making tents. Each tent costs only 24 cp for the hemp plants, but it's still time-consuming work, so he buys all of the raw materials to make the ropes and tents only, making the cost for each tent 7.25 sp. After selling 20 tents he makes 198.55 gp. (<strong>+670.7184 gp, +6</strong>, 3 ranks)</p><p></p><p><strong>Gain Rank 4:</strong> For his next rank he decides to make some cured silk armor (DC 17), hoping to get some business from the local mages. Each suit of armor takes 20 silk swatches, 3 silk thread, and 20 heady kiolas. He'll need 206 spiderling webs for the silk, so he buys them in bulk, getting 500 total for 250 gp. 40 heady kiolas set him back another 40 gp. (<strong>+380.7184 gp, +6</strong>, 3 ranks)</p><p>First attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316692" target="_blank">fails</a>, which causes him to lose half his materials.</p><p>Second attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316693" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Third attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316695" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fourth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316696" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fifth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316698" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Sixth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316699" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Seventh attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316700" target="_blank">succeeds</a> with a natural 20, no less!</p><p>Eighth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316701" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p></p><p>He now gains another skill rank.</p><p>Ninth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316702" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Tenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316703" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Eleventh attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316704" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Twelfth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316705" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Thirteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316706" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Fourteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316707" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fifteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316708" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Sixteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316709" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Seventeenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316710" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Eighteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316711" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Nineteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316712" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Twentieth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316713" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p></p><p>Of this batch, his 8 failures leave him enough material to make 4 more tries:</p><p>First attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316714" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Second attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316715" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Third attempt (with the previous two failures' materials) <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316716" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Fourth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316717" target="_blank">fails</a> with a natural 1. Daonil buys more tools for 20 gp.</p><p>Fifth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316718" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>His left-over materials are now: 400 studs, 10 silk swatches, 1.5 silk thread, 10 heady kiolas.</p><p></p><p>Daonil sells the 14 suits of cured silk armor for 1650 gp each. (<strong>+23,460.7184 gp, +7</strong>, 4 ranks)</p><p></p><p><strong>Gain Rank 5:</strong> He now sets out to see how fast he can make some raw silk armor (DC 21). For this he'll need 200 spiderling silk per suit. He has enough platinum now to pay double full price, even when buying in bulk, so he makes sure to get what he needs, and buys a full 5,000 for 50 gp, then turns this into silk swatches. (<strong>+23,410.7184 gp, +7</strong>, 4 ranks)</p><p></p><p>First attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316729" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Second attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316730" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Third attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316731" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fourth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316732" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Fifth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316733" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Sixth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316734" target="_blank">succeeds</a> with a natural 20</p><p>Seventh attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316735" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Eighth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316736" target="_blank">fails</a> with a natural 1, costing him another 20 gp for tools.</p><p>Ninth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316738" target="_blank">fails</a> with another natural 1</p><p>Tenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316739" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Eleventh attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316740" target="_blank">succeeds</a> </p><p>Twelfth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316741" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Thirteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316742" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fourteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316743" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Fifteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316744" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Sixteenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316745" target="_blank">fails</a> </p><p>Seventeenth attempt <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316746" target="_blank">succeeds</a> with a natural 20.</p><p></p><p>Daonil gains another skill rank.

This leaves him with 90 swatches. (<strong>+33,250.7184 gp, +9</strong>, 6 ranks)</p><p></p><p>He uses these to make some masterwork raw silk armor (DC 22).

[B]Daonil's Epic Adventures in Tailoring[/B] [sblock=Very long details][I]Note:[/I] This assumes that the market value of one spiderling silk is 50 cp (based on 2 webs making one silk thread worth 2 sp, or 200 cp) and the market value of tanned hides is 20 cp for ruined, 1 sp for low-quality, 50 sp for medium-quality, and 1 gp for high-quality. Plant materials are worth about 1 cp for 10 hemp plants, 1 cp for 1 cotton plant, and 200 cp for 1 flax plant. These are assumed because they are not detailed anywhere, and the values are based on my best guess. Daonil starts off his career by buying his tools for 20 gp ([B]-20 gp, +4[/B], 1 rank) [B]Gain Rank 2:[/B] His goal is to eventually rush in making four backpacks (DC 15 each) so he gets enough hemp to make 12 cords, and buys 12 high-quality hides for a total of 12 gp, 6 cp.

This time he takes his time and takes 10 each of the 3 attempts. He takes his 7 backpacks and sells them to travelers for 2gp each. ([B]-18.0006 gp, +5[/B], 2 ranks) He needs to recoup his losses so he makes some belt pouches for profit. First he buys 100 hemp plants for 10 cp, and 20 low-quality hides for 20 sp. ([B]-18.2016 gp, +5[/B], 2 ranks) He takes 10 on all of the cords and pouches, selling the pouches for 1 gp each. ([B]+1.7984 gp, +5[/B], 2 ranks) [B]Gain Rank 3:[/B] His next goal is to rush 4 spell component pouches (DC 16). For this he buys 72 spiderling webs for 36 sp, and 12 high-quality hides for 12 gp. ([B]-10.5616 gp, +5[/B], 2 ranks) He takes 10 when making the silk thread and silk cords, and then starts making spell component pouches.

He sells his spell component pouches for 55 gp. He then buys enough materials for 9 more and sells those for a profit of 3.97 gp each. ([B]+80.1684 gp, +6[/B], 3 ranks) More confident in his abilities and now flushed with cash, he talks to a local blacksmith about getting some studs made. [URL=http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316687]He negotiates[/URL] a discount on studs if he buys 1000, getting them for 6sp each instead of 7sp. He also swings a bulk deal on some hides, buying 100 medium-quality hides. He wanted to get a [URL=http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1316689]better deal[/URL] but only got a 2 sp discount on each hide. The total for the studs and hides was 108 gp. ([B]-27.8316 gp, +6[/B], 3 ranks) He takes this material and makes 20 suits of studded leather armor, which each sell for 25 gp. ([B]+472.1684 gp, +6[/B], 3 ranks) He then gets to work on making tents. Each tent costs only 24 cp for the hemp plants, but it's still time-consuming work, so he buys all of the raw materials to make the ropes and tents only, making the cost for each tent 7.25 sp. After selling 20 tents he makes 198.55 gp. ([B]+670.7184 gp, +6[/B], 3 ranks) [B]Gain Rank 4:[/B] For his next rank he decides to make some cured silk armor (DC 17), hoping to get some business from the local mages. Each suit of armor takes 20 silk swatches, 3 silk thread, and 20 heady kiolas. He'll need 206 spiderling webs for the silk, so he buys them in bulk, getting 500 total for 250 gp. 40 heady kiolas set him back another 40 gp.

Now with 20 well-made suits of raw silk armor, he puts them on the market at 495 gp each, because he's feeling generous, and he gives two away to traveling erudite enchanters who also follow Prexus. This leaves him with 90 swatches. ([B]+33,250.7184 gp, +9[/B], 6 ranks) He uses these to make some masterwork raw silk armor (DC 22).

After paying his assistant 1 sp / day (or 11 sp per attempt) he's spent 3.19 gp on the help. ([B]+44,617.5284 gp, +13[/B], 6 ranks) Daonil then hears about a mysterious master of the monk arts who developed a special suit of armor, and he sets out to learn how to make it. Finally having found a use for his leftover heady kiolas, he gets to work making some of Master Wu's fighting apparel. He buys another 50 gp worth of silk (25 suits worth), 1240 heady kiolas for 1230 gp, plus 20 gp shipping, then 300 vials of [i]viscous mana[/i] for 3000 gp, and 25 greater lightstones for 1 gp each.

The red suit doesn't sell as easily has he'd expected, but the sea-green suit fits himself just right. ([B]+134,687.1484 gp, +13[/B], 6 ranks) Next Daonil sets out to make himself some Goo Boots.
