Character

Talents and mastery

The Keeper has five masteries: Building, Smithing, Farming, Book writing and Anatomy. Crafting recipes name a level of one of them, and on star recipes a higher mastery gives a better quality. Mastery nodes in the perk tree raise it by 1 each.

Recipes need a mastery level

A crafting recipe names a mastery level, for example Building 2; below that level it cannot be crafted. Food and sermon buffs add to mastery while they last, and 14 talent perks add +2 to +4 for one kind of work.

Points and the inspiration bar

Each colour has its own inspiration bar. Claiming an inspiration of that colour adds 1 or 2 notches; when the bar is full it turns into one inspiration point and starts again. The first point takes 2 notches, the second 3, the third 4 and every point after that 5. So 5 points take 19 notches, 10 points 44 and 20 points 94.

Zombie talent trees

Every zombie worker has its own five trees. Zombies buy their nodes with the tech points they earn while crafting, and their mastery also rises with better tools.
