Removed duplicate in-body wikilinks
Plans: Clay Building Set is a single-use Recipe Papers in Windrose. Reading it permanently unlocks: Constructive elements made of clay. Clay pieces are a mid-tier building stage that most crews upgrade to within the first few in-game days, once they have a steady supply of Clay.
Recipe Papers are looted in the world: most often from chests in pirate camps, ruins in the Coastal Jungle, and points of interest scattered across the archipelago. Some merchants in Tortuga also rotate a small selection of plans through their stock. The paper is consumed when it is read. Reading the paper adds the listed entry to the relevant crafting station's recipe list permanently for that character, with no further fee.
Reading the paper unlocks Constructive elements made of clay at the Workbench.
Wall (Clay): the standard square clay wall panel.
Triangular Wall (Clay): the gable-shaped wall used under sloped roofs.
These clay pieces are crafted at the Workbench once the plan is read. They slot into the same build grid as the woven and stone sets, so a clay shell can be mixed with reed roofing or upgraded to stone later without tearing the structure down.
Drops most reliably from looted chests in pirate camps and ruined points of interest, with occasional appearances in cargo crates from defeated NPC ships and in random trader stock at Tortuga. Once read, the unlocked entry is bound to the character that read it; share-base members must each find and read their own copy. When a faction Provisioner does stock a building plan, the price is paid in trade currency: everyday Piastre for common stock, or Guinea for higher-tier plans gated behind faction reputation.

Carry duplicates as trade bait. Until a base stockpiles every recipe paper for a building set, an extra copy is a strong barter chip with other crews.
Read papers at a base, not on a ship. Some plans add bulk decoration sets that flood the crafting menu, and being at a workshop helps preview new entries immediately.
Once read, the unlock is permanent for that character. Reading a second copy does nothing, so a duplicate paper is best traded or sold.
