Mystic Kuznya

Unread post by Gripmann »

According to Mystic Russia the Mystic Kuznya O.C.C. can "forge any metal object from nails and horseshoes to swords and chalices of the finest quality in one tenth the time it would take an ordinary smith to make a comparable low quality item." So how fast is that. Does it take a month, week or day to make a low quality item. Just trying to get a base so I can present the character to my group. Is there a book that details smithing items?

The rule we used for normal modern-day smithing is 5 days/kilogram (that's about 2.5 days/pound) of the final product.

So I guess there are no books that outline that part of this O.C.C. So I guess it's all house rules from here.

None that I know of. The PFRPG Hinterlands book might have something you could go from.

I think it's more dependent upon the complexity of the object.

You can probably pump out a hundred horse shoes in a day, or a couple hundred nails. But if you were to try and make an ornate chalice it might take you several days...

And no...there are no rules in the book. You could always do a web search for blacksmithing...

Yeah I looked on the internet and there's no time associated with let's say making a sword. All the different factors (kind of metal, size, weight, how fancy you want to get) will change how much time it takes. I also looked in the Palladium Fantasy book on page 271 which give repair times for armour. Oh well house rules it is. Thanks for the help.
