Suggestion New skill: Engrave

[Haxnn]

I will finaly be able to name my cakes! I can't wait for this to be added and I suggest this skill goes to both smiths and scribes, I think mason needs something new, but I don't think this is the skill they need.

Building on kevinlive's idea: smiths can engrave tools and weapons, masons can engrave blocks, and scribes can engrave anything else

Cool implementation idea.

How about scribes engrave anything? That's what they did in real life, isn't it?

A scribe copied books by hand

I'm pretty sure they did a little bit more than just books, but okay.

odd note ----> don't name buckets they lose their name when you fill or empty them

but I digress, I support smiths getting this

Blocks are also renamed into their normal name when placed and destroyed. It's because the item you use is "destroyed" and reappears as a new item.

I think Scribes could easily fit this skill, as masters of renaming. However, I am realizing that NO one plays a Mason these days.

I think engrave would also suit Mason. I dare anyone (who isnt staff) to say Mason's cant engrave things in lore. I respectfully ask staffs opinion.

Class: ??? (Smith or Scribe)
Status: Uncoded
Reagent Cost: ???
Purpose:
Carve a text on the item in your hand.
/skill engrave <Text>

Thoughts on having this?

My problem for Scribes getting this is, in the era I picture HC atm, Scribes would be more pen and paper, engraving suggests the use of hammer and chisel/weapon handling (Assuming weapons find themselves engraved more often.) which just fits smith more. I'd be fine with both getting it on a balance stand point though.

Kainzo Now that the server is down anyways, any hope of this skill entering the fray now?
