Blacksmith

Blacksmithing, usually called smithing in the Realms, is the ability to craft tools, armor, and weapons from metals primarily. Smithing is also the primary skill for assembling crossbows, as demonstrated in "The Two Week Curse" during the defense of Alva Village.

While information from Earth can help a smith as they work, the processes are not the same.

A possible sub-type of smith may exist as Taran called Rugrat a "Mana-Forger" at one point, but any differences between a normal smith and a mana-forger, if any, have never been discussed.
