Clay is a sticky and soft resource found in [[clay tile]]s that can be easily formed into [[pottery]] items like [[clay bowl]]s, [[clay flask]]s, or [[clay jar]]s. [[Masonry|Masons]] also make use of clay as a bonding material for the [[stone brick]]s used in [[guard tower]]s and [[stone forge]]s, or to mix the better bonding material [[mortar]] to build [[stone house]]s, for example.

Clay, once [[digging|dug]] up, has a high [[decay]] speed and is pointless to store for more than a few days. It can however be kept in a [[Bulk storage bin]].

To transport a large quantity of clay, you will probably have to combine it.  Even a [[small cart]] will likely hold more than 100 2kg lumps of clay.  If you do so, be aware of the following:
 
−
* Some constructs that are started with clay will use the entire lump, regardless of the amount needed, when it is used to start the construct (see [[forge]]).
 
−
* "Continue Building" will only use 2kg of a lump at a time
 
−
* Building failures will damage the whole lump, not just the 2kg part of it that was used
 
−
* Lumps will automatically be split if you attempt to pick up a larger lump than you can carry at the time.  Thus, by carrying a heavy item and trying to pick up a large lump of clay, you can end up with a smaller portion of the lump instead.
