Template:L

This article is about an older version of DF.

A soaper is a Template:L who creates Template:L from Template:L and Template:L at the Template:L. This is one of the least useful roles in the Template:L because any dwarf can be assigned the task and yield the same result since soap has no quality modifier; the only difference is faster production. Additionally, in fortresses without Template:L (which is required to produce the 3 clear glass vials needed for the laboratory), the soap making profession is entirely worthless. Thus, soapers are typically excellent candidates to be drafted into the Template:L or full-time Template:L duty, or otherwise re-trained in another Template:L.

At present, soap has no different effect than any other bar, but given that the base value of soap is 25☼ multiplied by the [MODVALUE:] of the creature whose fat it is made from, soap can be very valuable to build with. It is also the best way to get Template:L out of Template:L Template:L (plus, admit it, a bar of Hydra or Dragon soap is just cool - and very valuable).
