A bit more about the Master Smith.

I had originally intended him as a way of giving Lindir and Child in particular a chance for fun and games-as I'd had him down as Lindir's mentor.

However, since Child's already had to handle the Diviner sub-plot, perhaps she'd prefer if he had some connection to the twins instead? Just a thought.

If we stick to the scheme then he will enroll you all as students but with Lindir as definite Teacher's Pet, mulling over old times. He will not use the Silver Fetters until he is utterly forced-they are a precaution he does not expect to need, though he assuredly eventually will. I think a bit of willing interaction might be interesting at first, but when you realise you're not allowed to leave...

As for his appearance-I was thinking he should look fully corporeal while working. If he stops working or puts his tools down for any reason he vanishes. Aside from that, typical black hair, grey eyes, tall height, broad shoulders, etc.
