Crafting Magic Items: D-M
We are back to craft! This time we are going through items D-M, which will be dragging us across the planes to source the correct materials to make the greatest magic items! Also… hopefully, your party is quite skilled with their tools, as armor isn’t going to smith itself.
If you want to know how we’ve come up with this system, make sure you check out our first part for making a crafting system. You can find the other items here:
In addition, once we are done with all of this, I’ll be creating a PDF for our patrons on Patreon of the crafting system - so if you want everything in one spot, not on a website, consider supporting us! Otherwise, it’ll be here for you to reference whenever you want.
