Tailoring

Although this skill is available to any person willing to train, Artisans have an advantage in Tailoring over others. Artisans get a bonus that makes it possible for them to tailor better quality and lighter items at the same skill level compared to non-artisans. They can also make bigger containers than non-artisans at the same skill level.

When you have sufficient skill in Tailoring, you should type TAILOR LIST to see what items you can create.

Tools needed:
You will need at least a sewing kit and some type of material to use to make your item. You can use skinned animal pelts or purchase fabric from tailoring shops, such as The Shroud of Aroai on Chodaku. Thread and attachments are optional.

When an item is tailored, there are options to decorate it. You can include stitching, embroidery and/or attachments. For example:

• Stitching
  - a soft yellow ososha gem pouch with purple stitching
• Embroidery
  - a sheer silver esilan gown embroidered with an elaborate eye with gleaming pupil
• Attachments
  - a textured black karbora haversack laced with silver ribbons
   
• Combination: Stitching and an attachment OR Stitching and embroidery
  - a pale blue lumis silk gown with champagne stitching laced with silver ribbons
  - a velvety red xarloa cape embroidered with adorned with metallic tassels.

To tailor:
1. Hold the sewing kit in the right hand, and material in the left hand. Then TAILOR [item] (Put a thread in the kit beforehand if you want it to have plain stitching.) Tailor until complete.
2. For attachments, just hold the completed item in one hand and the attachment in the other and ATTACH [attachment] TO [item].
   For embroidery, put a thread in the kit and then EMBROIDER [item] WITH [design].
