Artisanship Commission

The Artisanship Commission is one of six commissions of the Xianzhou Alliance. 
==Description==
==Overview==
The Artisanship Commission is all about crafting and manufacturing. Any object imaginable that can be manufactured, such as weapons, ship parts, ingenious robots, and artificial intelligence are all produced by the craftsmasters here. They pursue ingenious skills and strive for the goal of completing the "Great Smelting Furnace" ritual, and being awarded the title of "Furnace Master." Shards of the Lux Arrow can be reforged by the Furnace Master, chief of the Xianzhou artisans, for those who are worthy. 
Countless artisans regard the Xianzhou Zhuming Artisanship Commission, which had swallowed up a Pseudo Sun, as the hallowed hall of the craft, with apprentices who aspire to forge divine tools swarming the institution. With enough force, anything can be crafted, and the Flamewheel Forge has prepared everything the artisans could possibly need. By imprisoning the progenitor of heliobi, the Flint Emperor, the artisans have obtained a literally inexhaustible power source.
On the Zhuming, artisanship is the supreme school of learning. All its generals also held the title of the Artisanship Commission's Furnace Master. When they leave the ship, they command thousands of troops. When they return to the ship, they would swing their hammer and forge wondrous items, and receive the people's supreme respect. More than half of the weapons used in the Xianzhou's hunts throughout the fleet's history were forged in the Xianzhou Zhuming. Therefore, the Flamewheel Forge came to be regarded as the holy pilgrimage site for such technologies in the entire Cosmos.
Apprentices from different worlds come together before the Forge and become fellow students, then compete and share their skills. Outworlders who come in search of marvelous tools would also pay a hefty sum to commission artisans to craft otherworldly items — However, the countless apprentices over the millennia have rarely been favored by General Huaiyan, the "Artisan of Artisans." Whenever he tutors students himself and personally passes on his skills both as a craftsman and a soldier, these students would either become grandmasters who leave a mark in the annals as Furnace Masters or become Cloud Knights with names that thunder through the Alliance such as the Flamewheel Octet.
The verses "Smelt for a thousand stars; quicken with steel of heroes. The forge's light boosts power and might; and armaments guard both hearth and meal." hang in adornment in the main hall of the Flamewheel Forge. The Artisanship Commission's Hall of Jadeology keeps a close watch over the jade carving process, making it difficult for outworlders to observe the manufacturing process.
The Xianzhou Zhuming Artisanship's Temperaflame Office is responsible for taking "newborn" harmless heliobi passed to them from the Ten-Lords Commission Flamehunt Judges, and matching the heliobi with various artifacts to make them into lamps, vehicles, and various spectacles in the Zhuming.
==History==
An unknown emperor of the Primeval Imperium was said to have once gifted the master craftsman of the Zhuming, Grand Artisan Yang Di, with a weapons-casting mold in honor of its maiden voyage. To this day it remains, passed down through the ages to be the pride of place in the Flamedisk Forge Palace, the foundational base of the Xianzhou Zhuming's Artisanship Commission. It was said that the craftsmen on the Zhuming were liberal in form and definition and that the residents had completely transformed the ship beyond recognition since their departure.
At the end of the Heliobi Wars, the defeated Heliobi leader, the Flint Emperor, was imprisoned and sentenced to serve as the power source for the Xianzhou Zhuming for the rest of their eternal life. The craftsmen of the Zhuming used every means available to imprison it in the furnace and used its power to forge various divine weapons. It was also rumored that the Creation Furnace in the Xianzhou Luofu was powered by an imprisoned Heliobus. After the Crisis of Belief between the Year 3400 to 4000 Star Calendar, the Firmamend Temple became an affiliated academy of the Zhuming Artisanship Commission.
It took the Artisanship Commission of the Xianzhou Yaoqing and 3,000 Vidyadhara craftsmen more than 20 years to build the Caelorum Venti Pavilion in Moon Delve with large slabs of jade and moonstone and is hailed as the epitome of the Yaoqing Vidyadhara architectural style. Vidyadhara Windsayers have laid a "Feather Path" in the pavilion that links 16 floating islands together to allow people to walk freely in the air without any flying or floating equipment. The pavilion became one of the most well-known tourist sites of the Yaoqing and commemorates how the previous Caelorum Venti fought valiantly and slew a herd abomination named the Hundred Hands.
Once, a delegation containing Baiheng and a dozen others were sent to request for arms and reinforcements from the Zhuming for the Xianzhou Yaoqing's Heroncrest Fleet, who were occupied with fighting the Borisin. They were recieved by General Huaiyan's apprentice, Yingxing, at Radiant Zenith and escorted through by the Flamedisk Forge Palace, where they observed the Flint Emperor's light being sealed. There, they met with Huaiyan, who was willing to allocate three hundred fighter jets, twenty thousand thunder crossbows, and twenty thousand devastator glaives in response to Helm-Master Qingying's request for reinforcements, but only a dozen or so personnel.
Sometime in the past, Ardens Regia, the high elder of the Xianzhou Zhuming, sent a Vidyadhara craftsman to the Luofu to teach the masters of the Luofu Artisanship Commission about craftsmanship. The craftsman then started their hatching rebirth with the intent to pass back their improved knowledge back to the Zhuming after their rebirth.Location: Scalegorge Waterscape: Investigations In recent history, Master Gongshu of the Luofu Artisanship Commission had developed a weapon that utilizes heliobus energy called the Luminflux Pyxis.NPC: Master Gongshu
