🜁 APPENDIX A — CRAFTING WITH MONSTER PARTS

A GM’s Guide to Turning Beasts into Relics, Charms & Consumables

🜂 THE PRINCIPLE OF ESSENCE

Every creature in Tallanon contains Essence — the echo of its nature, instincts, and power.

Essence resides in:

• Blood

• Bone

• Hide

• Heart

• Cores

• Shards

• Glands

• Souls

When harvested, these become the raw materials for:

• Weapons

• Armor

• Potions

• Runes

• Charms

• Ritual components

Crafting is the art of shaping Essence into purpose.

🜃 HARVESTING MONSTER PARTS

To harvest a slain creature, a hero makes a Wilderness Lore or Craftsmanship test.

Difficulty by creature rank:

• Novice: TN 3

• Skilled: TN 4

• Elite: TN 5

• Veteran: TN 6

• Legendary: TN 7

• Mythic: TN 8

On failure:

• The part is ruined

• Essence leaks away

• Optional GM effect: contamination (poison, rot, curse)

On success:

• Roll 1d6 for yield

• 1: One part

• 2–3: One useful part

• 4–5: Two useful parts

• 6: Rare component (GM chooses)
