Artisan

Description
Once a young Artisan had extraordinary skills with his hands and after a great many hardships he was able to apprentice under a famous artisan. However, he soon succumbed to the temptations of bad friends and started replicating bank safe keys, eventually ruining his business and reputation. For a while he lived a life full of debauchery, but could not forget the joy of creating beautiful accessories with jewels, leather, metal, and cloth, or the production of exquisite arrows and other forms of ammunition. Thus he left on a long journey to collect various materials so that he could master his unique skills.



Basic Info
Artisans are able to craft leather armor (Archer, Thief) and cloth armor (Acolyte, Magician). Artisans are also capable of handcrafting various ‘Runes’ that empower weapons and armor with special abilities.

To purchase Artisan recipes to craft, talk to Merin the Artisan Expert in Prontera (N : 845 S:556). Recipes will also require materials which can be purchased from the Artisan Expert  or crafted from raw materials.

Artisans primarily get their materials from the corpses of monsters, and need not necessarily have to kill the monsters themselves to get materials from their corpses as they are free to search any monster corpse regardless of who killed it. Monsters which can provide materials are denoted by a glowing aura above the corpse and a cursor swap when you move your mouse over the corpse.



Guardian

Guardian's story
Veriel was the best artisan in the entire continent of Midgard. His future was an undoubtedly smooth road. However, Jibril, who could not surpass Veriel no matter how hard he tried, planned out a terrible scheme to one day destroy Veriel's hands. Jibril feigns an accident to bring his plan to life, and Veriel loses his hands. The hands are the most important part of the body to an artisan; Veriel, who was no longer able to be an artisan, spent his days in a drunken corrupted despair. Then one day Veriel discovers that the accident that had cost him his hands was in fact not an accident and caused by Jibril. Unable to control his anger Veriel murders Jibril with his favourtie knife, using his mouth to deal the blow. In the same moment that Veriel killed Jibril the Day of Despair descended upon his city.
