Towershield Armory
The Towershield Armory is the most well known smithy in Corio. Built in an old watch tower, the whole of the building plays home to a massive forge which is shielded by stands and display cases of various heavy armors and shields. Though only worked by one smith, the store has never truly suffered from a backlog of orders - though mostly because the city is primarily peaceful and demand is low for it.
The owner of the Towershield is a female Leonin by the name of Sabine. Her work speaks for itself (as she is a smith of few words each breastplate, platearmor or shield is a artistic marvel of form and function. None of the work around her store is actually available for sale - these pieces are already sold and awaiting pickup. Sabine handles orders as they come in: with money upfront. While she claims she learned her mastery from teachers in the North, much of the armor displays an almost elvish quality.
Purpose / Function
The sale of quality armor to those with the ability to pay.
Architecture
The building is a stone tower, built in a hexagonal shape. At the center of the store is the large forge where Sabine works and a large chimney that reaches to the top of the tower. The walls around her host the various armor pieces awaiting pickup from their purchasers. Stairs to the rear of the building go up into the living quarters that are on the floors above the forge's main level.
