Lore & Background
These artisans rely heavily on the local supply chain, specifically shepherds who provide wool. Their productivity is tied directly to the settlement's stability; if housing or food becomes scarce, their work slows, impacting the Lord's ability to trade for luxury goods or expand military capacity through cloth exports.
In Their Own Story
The loom clicks rhythmically in the dim light of the workshop as evening falls over the valley. Dust motes dance in the shafts of sunlight filtering through the high windows. The Weaver does not look up, hands moving with practiced precision to guide the thread across the warp. Outside, the settlement hums with activity, but here, there is only the sound of creation turning raw fiber into wealth.
Reader's Guide
The Weaver serves as a crucial economic node within your settlement's structure. They are not combatants or leaders, but their output determines trade potential and population growth through clothing needs. Their primary skill lies in converting wool into cloth using looms housed in Workshops. To maximize efficiency, ensure they have adequate housing nearby to reduce commute times and maintain morale. Managing this workforce requires balancing resource flow; without a steady supply of sheep farming, the Weaver becomes idle. Their defining moment occurs when you unlock advanced trade routes, where their production directly fuels your gold reserves.
