Crafting Recipe Proposed:
Simple Harpoon
Materials Required: 1 Piece of Wood
Posts Required: 1
A simple tool used by Fishermen while diving beneath the surface of the water. The tool is used by throwing it, much like a javelin but underwater, towards one's prey with hopes to spear the creature or immobilize it. The harpoon can also be used to spear ones prey, to defend oneself from a predator, or at least be used as a deterrent if assaulted. Due to the lack of strength, this variety of Harpoons doesn't tend to last very long unless it is maintained constantly.
Explanation: I needed a harpoon so I made one. It's also a very simple tool that I feel all starting fishermen should have access to. Having a recipe for it, even if it can be categorized as any old Woodcrafter recipe, will help others realize that there are more tools available to the Fisherman class than just the rod.
Crafting: Orca
Crafter: Ryker
Recipient: Ryker
Recipe: Simple Harpoon [See above]
Materials Used: 1 Piece of Wood [Level 1 Material]
Requested Item:
Orca
A simple, cream and tan colored Harpoon which was created with a very careful hand; Orca was carved with the intent of a fine balance between beauty and ferocity. The tool takes a smooth cylinder shape like nearly all harpoons do but then quickly becomes a violent death trap at its tip. Unlike many harpoons which may have only one sharp edge or a metal tip, Orca is made out of one solid wooden piece and has four serrated fins which expand outwards from the tip in a basic "plus" design. The four fins create an almost inescapable array of spikes which latch onto flesh and grip onto any prey which could have the terrible luck of being skewered by the harpoon's extremely sharp tip.
