General description
Artisans are always respected by other people. At first, trade was based on barter, but as crafts developed, people began paying for goods with silver and gold. Masters in their craft � artisans who did not have equals in their skill and ability � are honored above all.
It doesn�t matter if you are a carpenter, a tailor or a blacksmith, you always have a chance to win respect and esteem in your chosen profession.
In Akvilon, a player can only learn two professions. If, in the future, the player wants to change a profession, he can do that, but at a cost of losing one of his existing professions and crafting experience earned.
Choice of profession
Before you start the game, you will be given a choice of 2 out of 8 existing professions. Since every person must make this choice for him / her, you do not need to go anywhere – you simply mark two professions. Be careful � if you have already chosen a profession, when you change it for something else, you will lose all experience that you have already gained in one of your existing professions.
Education
You will need several things to learn your profession � new recipes which will allow you to increase your knowledge; and manufacturing methods, which will increase your abilities. The more complex the item that you are making, the faster you gain new experience.
You can find recipes all over Akvilon � you can buy them from merchants, acquire them from master hermits who decide to share their secrets with you, or from generous people who reward your services with an unusual recipe. You can also find a recipe in a opponent whom you killed, but this is no joke.
Manufacturing
All crafts require tools � without right tools you can�t get much done.Your tools greatly influence your work � they can be a simple blacksmith�s hammer or one that has been made from charmed metal; you can have a steel needle, or a dragon bone one. Right weather is very important for crafting � strong wind or a downpour, snow storm or consuming heat have their own meanings and can influence the end result. The ancestors say that if the fresh face of a full moon reflects in what you are making, whether it�s an object or liquor, this crafting of yours will have special powers. My grandfather told me that this is not always the case � he used to wait for the full moon to do his crafting, but the moon didn�t seem to notice, so you really have to be lucky in this. The main thing that all apprentices know is that there are special secret places, enchanted many centuries ago, and if you are lucky to find a place like this and craft an item there, it will become a special magic item. But places like that are rare and everybody wants to find them, so people hide and protect those places like the apple of their eye.
So do not forget 4 rules:
1.The instruments are important.
2.The time and moon phase during crafting is important.
3.The weather is important.
4.The location of crafting is important.
In conclusion: You need to learn the recipe before you can craft something. You can receive 3 additional enchants, but only in the moment of the object�s crafting:
1.Instrument for your work (100% enchant)
2.Special place, special anvil, special lake, etc., depending on your profession (100% enchant)
3.Weather enchant (potential enchant depends on luck), or Full Moon (potential enchant depends on luck).
This does not mean that you have to wait for a fierce snow storm to sew yourself a shirt or a full moon before you can tan the skins. Any recipe can be carried out without these or any other conditions. The only time you should think about the weather, moon phases or enchanted places is when you want to craft items that are important for you � this will speed up your education.
