Brass-smithing
A brass-smith is one who forges and shapes
brass with an anvil and a hammer. Brass is heated in
a forge and then hammered into the shape desired.
The forge consists of an open hearth made of firebrick.
Coal is used to fuel the forge, and bellows are
inserted to fan air as needed. Brass is an alloy of
copper and zinc. Broken or obsolete brass objects
can be melted down and the substance reused.
Whenever such metalworking is done, a Brasssmithing
skill check must be made.
Check: Roll 3d10 and apply the average of
the modifiers from the sub-abilities Strength and
Spatial Intelligence. Higher results correspond with
better quality brasswork. The Aedile will determine
the TH for each application.
