Sōzōnushi

Sōzōnushi (創案者, Sōzōnushi) is a continent-renown blacksmith. Currently a nomad, he wanders the continent in search of rare ores and minerals, and hence possesses no village-affiliation(s).

Personality
Sōzōnushi is a quiet man, only speaking when absolutely necessary. He prefers to isolate himself from society, smelting tools of legendary quality when alone. Nonetheless, he has a tendency of being nomadic, especially when he has expended the majority of his ore and mineral supply.

Appearance
Sōzōnushi wears a long, black robe with white sides and gold trimmings around the collar. He keeps his hood up at all times, leaving his facial features ambiguous. A peculiar medallion of an unknown origin is attached to the center of the hood, the symbolism it possesses either of a lost age, or is simply an article with very little market value.

Trivia

 * As he possesses no ties, Sōzōnushi may be employed any one of the major villages. However, his exact location is known by only a few, and even when found, there is no guarantee he will accept an offer of employment, depending on the circumstances.
