The flood of jewels

[TenaciousD]

Jewels have gotten to the point it seems where only close to the best are used and the rest just sit there. I had an idea to get rid of some of the abundance of jewels, while maybe helping along a future skill.

When jewelling a rare fails, give it a 33% (or so)  chance instead of just being totally destroyed to leave a pile of slag with some magical properties. This could be used with smithing in the future in many different ways, and it would give people who have 100+ low jewels something to do with them, since no one will buy a +12 str jewel. Rares can be sold so it wouldn't really eat up any more of those, but a market might appear for them.

It would be nice to have the slag stack in your inventory as well, but that's a different topic. :p

This would also create a BIG gold sink imo with attempts costing 500k/jewel.
