The Crafter's Caboodle (aka Gem-in-ator), is a storage box for holding specialty gems used for crafting and customization. It is worth noting that once you put a gem within the Caboodle it will no longer function as a valid gem for Magic Item Recharging, Chrism Gem Creation, or for use with the Alchemy system.

The Crafter's Caboodle

Introduced at the Ebon Gate Festival in 5122, the bin is designed to hold 30 types of gemstones.
They are allowed to stack.

It must remain some kind of container that has a protective shield, a lever on the side, velvet lining, and is made of wood.

It has the following actions: look (see the stored items), pluck (remove a stored item), put (add an item), and whisper (move the items to make them easier to pluck)

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Due to the nature of this device, it is important that you understand that any gemstone placed inside it will be altered for storage convenience.  It will be marked as NOT FOR SALE and transformed into a generic gemstone.  It will also be marked as MAGIC RESISTANT.  For crafting and customizing purposes, these things don't change how the gemstone functions.


Customizations:
Velvet Color and/or Descriptor - russet
Protective Shield Material - orange-tinted glass
Lever Material - blackened steel
Wood Type - golden linden

PLUCK Manipulating the blackened steel lever on the side of a russet velvet-swaddled bin with devore acorns, you watch as the orange-tinted glass protective panel slides back to expose russet velvet-lined cubes within, and then you pluck a wedge of polychromatic crowstone out of its bed. A quick flick of the blackened steel lever causes the protective panel to slide back into place.

You realize this is the last of its kind in your velvet-swaddled bin.
