Description

A candle made from tallow repeatedly dipped around a cloth wicker.

A candle is made by using animal fat or beeswax on string of cloth.

Candles will emit light upon being lit. They lose quality over time. They are also part of candelabra and Snow lantern.

On success, 1.00kg of fat and 0.08kg of string is consumed to create a 0.05kg candle.
If you fail creating a candle, you use 0.005 of the animal fat and 0.01 of the string of cloth.
The quality of animal fat determines the chance to create a candle.
The quality of the string of cloth used determines the quality of the candle. A candle's quality is no more than the quality of the string of cloth.
Candles burn at a rate of .5QL per minute.
