So evocative, and I love the design! I particularly love the explanation of the Blacksmith's work and the options for regrets. Adding the personalized prompts is such a nice touch, too!
Thank you! I've always been fascinated by blacksmiths, and find that they're a grounding complement to magical settings. Someone's got to be making all those cursed swords and rings! Your system leaves lots of room for play with character archetypes like this, and I think it's fantastic.
Thank you, that's so kind! And "someone's gotta be making all those cursed swords" really made me laugh.
