ABOUT

Craftsmen are skilled workers who create the material things use by the peoples of Aigyptos, including religious edifices like tombs, temples, and monuments; river vessels used for fishing and transporting materials like stone building blocks; beer and the ceramic jars that hold it; and ironwork like agricultural tools, horseshoes, and chariot hardware.

Craftsmen can generally be found in the villages or temple compounds where they dwell, in workshops or worksites of various sorts, or travelling to or from the places where their skills are needed. A group of Craftsmen might be of either gender or a mix of both. They can be of any alignments but the majority in any particular community will be some variety of lawful.

A Craftsman will generally have one or more appropriate tools that can be used as weapons (e.g., a light hammer for a blacksmith, a handaxe for a carpenter), and might also have a quarterstaff or walking stick/club if on the road. Such characters are not trained as combatants, however, do not wear armor, and will avoid conflict to the great extent possible.
