When creating your blacksmith how did they start liking it? Maybe from your father being a blacksmith and he taught you how to make a simple dagger? Did you make a quick repair in the face of danger? Or maybe a master blacksmith taught you how to master the arts of smithing? All these options could be a great kickstarter for a wonderful blacksmith they could be!
