DIY Weapon Crafting

Prerequisite: Basic Camp Skills, 6th level

This skill allows you to create makeshift weapons out of the most humble of materials. You may create any of the following:

• Quarterstaves
• Crude spears (d6 damage)
• Stone daggers
• Stone handaxes (d4+1 damage)
• Slings (and 20 pieces of ammunition)
• Bows
• And arrows (4 per hour) (range: 30’/60’)

Each weapon takes one hour to create. These weapons break on a roll of a natural 1 on day one, and break on a roll of 1-5 on day two. If they survive to the end of the second day, each day thereafter, they will break on a roll of 1-10.   At the end of each day, you may spend 10 minutes on each non-broken weapon to refurbish it, resetting the breakdown clock for that weapon. You may spend 30 minutes refurbishing a broken weapons to get it ready for service again. In this way, you and your allies need never be without basic weapons, even if stranded naked in the wilderness.
