Talk:Granite

Love this
I really appreciate articles that take something rather mundane or everyday and show how they are specific to the Realms. Thank you for this one Daranios!

Could you also do one for steel as well? Ruf (talk) 03:09, June 14, 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the praise! I plan to add more occurences here, but I am afraid I have to decline about the steel: After I got sidetracked here I want to get back to my Realms & Avatars project. :-) Daranios (talk) 19:48, June 14, 2018 (UTC)


 * I love this sort of thing too. Background details like this are great for a game. — BadCatMan (talk) 00:53, June 15, 2018 (UTC)

Worth as building material?
If anyone knows of a source that gives a value for granite as a building material, please let me know! I have only been able to find a value for the stone as a spell component, which will by definition be a small amount, and therefore probably a different price range.

 * Stronghold Builder's Guidebook, p. 37, lists prices for free-standing walls of various materials. Granite is not listed specifically, but "masonry" is 10'×10'×2' for 250 gp. This may include cost for labor though. "Masonry" is defined as "stones piled atop one another and usually held in place with mortar." Superior masonry is 300 gp. Hewn stone is 600 gp but for a 10'×10'×6' block.

Hope that helps. ~ Lhynard (talk) 15:26, July 11, 2018 (UTC)
