− | If the character doesn't have proper access to tools or raw materials, the character takes a -4 on his Craft check. | + | If the character doesn't have proper access to tools or raw materials, the character takes at least a -4 on his Craft check. This penalty may be increased if the equipment or material seems very necessary, and the DM may rule that some craft checks are impossible without appropriate equipment (e.g. smithing checks without a forge or hammer). One can of course always attempt to create the tools needed, but this may be difficult or near-impossible. |
