Blacksmithing

Blacksmithing is a crafting profession used to create various kinds of metallic armor and weapons. Anything from a sword to plate armor is made at the forge under the hammer of a blacksmith. With more experience comes the ability to work with tougher, strong, and more exotic metals.

The first thing a blacksmith learns to do, is how to turn ore into ingots that they can either sell, or use to craft something like a shield (that they could then sell or use if they like. Could even make a great gift for your team's paladin)

## Forging an Item

In order to forge items, a blacksmith must have the proper tools and be at a forge. Portable forges are an uncommon item, purchasable in most any town that has a blacksmith shop.

Roll 1d20+Blacksmithing Skill+Strength Modifier and multiply total by 10 to get points (eg. Rolls 12 + 4 (BS skill) +2 (STR Mod) = 18 x10 = 180 points)

Spend points to increase forged item's power

### Shields

Shields are capable of being forged with innate abilities: *arrow/spell block* and *shield of faith*. **Arrow/Spell Block** gives the wearer a 25% chance to block the current incoming ranged attack, arrow block for ranged physical attacks and spell block for ranged spell attacks (you can put both on one shield but have to purchase them individually). Roll a 1d4 and if the result is 4, the incoming attack automatically misses. **Shield of Faith** gives a nearby ally within 30ft a +2 bonus to their AC as a passive bonus (multiple charges can be forged into one shield to protect multiple people at one time. Must purchase once for every target to protect).
