Description

A fragment of another item. You think you can see how multiples of these fragments may fit together in a way that restores the original item. A [metal brush/chisel] would be useful to clear away some dirt and rock from it.

Unidentified fragments are found by investigating a tile.

Notes

• Unidentified fragments can be identified by using a stone chisel and/or a metal brush. Activate the tool, right click on the unidentified fragment and select Identify.
• The IDENTIFY action can be bound to a key.
• Once identified, the fragment will state how many other fragments need to be combined in order to create a finished product.
• This uses the Restoration skill.
• Animals with the "It seems to pick stuff up" output trait have a small chance of unearthing fragments while eating.

Variants

Either upon investigation, or during the restoration process, you may encounter one of the following types of partially identified fragments.

• Unidentified wooden fragment
• Unidentified weapon fragment
• Unidentified tool fragment
• Unidentified metal fragment
• Unidentified container fragment
• Unidentified statue fragment
• Unidentified armour fragment

At higher skill levels you may investigate an item of a specific type directly, e.g. an ore fragment or wooden fragment, at any point on the identification spectrum.
