Added both, praying the first one was a serious wheelmakers profession. probably works under general Artisanship, but, is perhaps desired enough to have it. Might come up if someone wants to buy a carriage.

Its legit, google em. Also, I dare someone (Other than me) to write up a guide for all of these professions, first one wins a fabulous prize *Cough cough* Noodles anus *cough cough*

I would focus only on the broadest professions, such as blacksmith, farmer, or tailor, and then maybe list some examples of each. Otherwise you're going to get a list that's extremely long and meaningless.

A lore entry such as this could give people ideas of what to be besides "adventurer," and that's good.

Engineers
Tanners
Clothiers
Glassblowers
Smithies
Fletchers
Mercantile
Buccaneers

And the first five industry shitz

Go.

The idea is not to have a detailed listing of every industry, but to compile information as so that I might be able to create as realistic an economy as possible. Trust me, most of this information, as I meant to suggest, is preliminary. I'll use this to produce a more valid listing of prices, demand, and so on for items.

Having said this, a lot of it is in fact, msot likely, not entirely necessary. But I would rather have more than less. XDD Mostly just asking for information on what you guys feel is important, and what you guys can contribute on.

Update:

I have a system going, it's doing pretty well, but I could really use help with the following information from people who might know a thing or two about it:

Stone:
Anyone here in masonry that might know a thing or two about a few different types of stone; I'd really appreciate it.

Gemstones:
Anyone who wants to do this; even if you have NO bearing on gemstones whatsoever, I'd be willing to let someone just give me values of common-ness for these. I think Pat needs to tell me Cordonium.

Alchemy:
Someone in the Alchemy know how give me some information on the alchemy system, and how one does alchemical shite?

Tanning:
We got like five tanner chars in Surna, can one of them tell me the state of affairs on their jobs? Do they get their hands on enough leather, do people want leather goods? etc.

After that, I just need to work on some lesser stuff, and the economics might actually be in a state I can call it DONE.
