Editing 40d:Bone

Bone can be obtained from the [[corpse]]s of dead creatures, or from [[severed body part]]s. A dead corpse close to a [[butcher's workshop]] will automatically be butchered, yielding a number of bones proportional to the creature's size.

Bones are processed at the [[craftsdwarf's workshop]], and can be used to make the following.

# [[Bone craft]]s, which can be sold. Bone crafts have a value dependent on their quality and an inherent number that depends on the creature it came from. [[Troll]] and [[elephant]] bones are more valuable than goblin or raccoon bones, for example.
# [[Bone armor]]. Bone armor is not particularly protective, but is very light, and easy to make early. High quality armor is more protective, and masterwork bone armor is as protective as basic quality iron armor.
# [[Bone decoration]]s. Any decoratable item can be decorated with bone, which adds to the items' value. No item can have more than one decoration of a certain kind of bone, but can have multiple decorations if the bones come from different kinds of creatures.
# [[Bone bolt]]s. These bolts are fired through crossbows. They are not valuable, so [[marksdwarf|marksdwarves]] will use them for practice, as opposed to metal bolts.

The quality of all bone items created depends on the [[bonecarving]] skill of the dwarf who creates them.

Bone is not a building material.

-'''Bone''' can be obtained from the [[corpse]]s of dead [[creatures]], or from [[severed body part]]s. A corpse, whether [[butcher's shop|butchered]] or [[rot]]ted, will yield a [[stack]] of bones equal to the creature's size.  Any bones on a tile defined as "[[Tile attributes|Above Ground]]" will vanish over time.

-Bone is not a building material. If you play a modded fort as goblins or kobolds or any other BONECARN, bones will also become a good source of food - they will be edible raw by your citizens, but not cookable into meals.
