Castle Story: Inventory

[arale_norimaki]

This is as an alphabetical guide of all the items that can be dropped by buildings, nature or adventures in Castle Story.
For a given item this inventory provides:
- how or where to find it,
- how to use it,
- links to threads about it (if there are any) and
- in many cases, a picture.

If you received something and do not know what it is or how to use it, you may find some answers here. If you need an ingredient to craft any material or cook any meal and do not know where to look for it, you may find information about it here.

Please refer to maguar's guide, if you want to know
- the requirements to construct a building and what each building provides;
- what each plant, animal, rock may drop;
- how to reach a given level;
- the required quantities for crafting;
- cost and earnings from crops;
- information about monsters;
- information about goals. You can also refer to Dabag's pictorial thread.

If you have general questions or doubts about how to play, please check the FAQs or the Reference Thread.

I hope this list is useful. Please let me know about any mistake or if anything is missing, I'll ask a mod to correct or add them
