Sovereign Smithy
This state-sponsored forge employs the best blacksmiths in Zimar—perhaps in all of Taldor. The Sovereign Smithy makes weapons and armor for Zimar’s aristocrats, elite military units, and even for Maxillar Pythareus himself. All weapons crafted at the Sovereign Smithy are of masterwork quality and etched with a sword-and-falcon mark known as the Falcon Seal. To protect the reputation of this elite mark, counterfeiters of the Falcon Seal are punished harshly, losing their right hand at the wrist; repeat offenders face the death penalty. Some of the finest weapons produced at the Sovereign Smithy are enchanted by clerics of Abadar at the House of Gold and delivered to high-ranking members of the imperial military. A small but well-trained force of veteran fighters known as the Battlesmiths guards the Sovereign Smithy and its valuable shipments, and a grizzled army veteran named Hannicus (NG female old human fighter 8) both runs the smithy and commands the Battlesmiths.
