Flowsmith

Yes, I am aware of them.
The work of Flowsmith... a fair juggle between gamble and miracle.
Great for making custom weapons that would be unobtainable with normal smithing methods.
These weapons may break on their first use, or never.

Description

Flowsmith is a person, who uses their mind and focus to create various tools, weapons and armors out of any material through the use of Burning Flow.   By exposing the material to concentrated Burning Flow, the material itself becomes the Flow. The Flowsmith then gives it any desired shape part by part. Thanks to the nature of the process, the parts may be made inseparable and even the item can be a single mass of various materials.
The structure of the material during the creation has an impact on the final product. Advanced Flowsmith can use this to alter some attributes during this process while inexperienced ones may cause unwanted changes in the material and finalized item.    

Requirements for Flowsmithing

To properly create an item, the Flowsmith one needs the following:
  • Source of the Burning Flow
  • Source of the materials
  • Knowledge about the properties of the materials
  • Perfect Knowledge and Visualization of the outcome.
  • Technique to achieve the outcome
  • The amount of Burning Flow required depends on the mass of the final version. Due to this, some larger items may need to be created in direct Burning streams. The crystals are then used to provide Flow for the final touches.  

    Flowsmithing with other elements - Animation

    While Flowsmithing with Burning Flow creates items out of real materials which lasts as long as the materials themselves, the second part of the Flowsmithing concept can be applied to all Flow Elements.  Weapons created with directed Flow can take any shape the user wishes for. This is also one of few cases when the Flow becomes visible.   Weapons created by directing the Flow last only as long as the user maintains their focus, and slowly dissipate depending on the used elements. These weapon's dangers vary greatly, taking into consideration the nature of the used element. While such weapons created from Solid and Blossom may appear and work as normal physical weapons do, the Weapons created by other elements have different effects.
