Arnorian Blacksmith
Above the wooden doors to this building is a sign with the usual blacksmith's hammer and anvil. Though over them stands a White Tree, with seven stars and the Crown of Elendil. You figure this might be interesting, and walk in. You are met by a tall man. He is not as muscular as the one in the other smith, but he is probably more adept at detail and carvings. He is rumoured to be the finest smith in Arthedain AND Cardolan. Rumours also tell that he has Noldorin blood in his veins. They got him from Lond Daer, so it is not impossible.
``Ah! An adventurer, are you? Or are you here to get yourself brand new equipment from Belladan's army supplies? Remember, only soldiers of Cardolan and Arthedain may buy their weapons and armor here. You see, even though they get chain mail and swords, my works are only for the soldiers themselves to buy. Only for the rich, which often consists of captains in the army...´´
EQUIPMENT
Blade of the Seven Stars - This is the sturdiest and strongest blade you will find in both Arthedain and Cardolan. On the hilt restss the crest of Elendil's heirs; the White Tree , Seven Stars and the Crown of Elendil, wrought in white crystal shaped with much skill and finesse. Indeed it is art in it's true form.
Weight - 11 pounds (5 kilos)
Length of Blade - 35 inches (89 cm)
Length of Hilt - 7 inches (17.8 cm)
Price - 14 silver pence
Plate of the Dúnedain - This is, like the other blacksmith's plate armor, a complicated armor consisting of scales, rings and plates interlocking by legs and arms with strong support around the neck and throat. The chest is covered in black leather, ornamented with white carvings. The Tree, the Stars and the Crown of Elendil. It is embellished with such details anyone looking at you would turn instantly. Though, this is the armor of the finest of Arnorian soldiers, which can only be bought by themselves, the army gives each soldier good armor, though not as detailed and durable as this is.
Weight - 45 pounds (20.5 kilos)
Price - 30 silver pence
Shield of Elendil's Crown - This big shield is fashioned in black color, with a carved White Crown on it. It's flat and smooth on the top, while slightly pointy at the bottom.It would be perfect for mass manoeuvres against great armies, but heavy and difficult to use when on horseback.
Weight - 22 pounds
Price - 10 silver pence
Arnorian Steelbow - A longbow made out of hollowed steel, using arrows about 114.3 cm (or 45 inches) long. The folk of Arnor inherited that tradition and still in Arthedain, some people consider it a hobby though it is not usual for people to wield such bows.
Length - 9 feet (274.32 cm, 108 inches)
Price - 24 silver pence
Steelbow Quiver - The special quivers designed to hold the giant arrows used by those who wield the Steelbow. The quiver, measuring just below four feet long, is also ornamented, with seven white Stars from top to bottom, and on the top resides a Crown embellished in pure, white crystal, probably worth some four pennies itself.
Length - 44 inches (112 cm)
Price - 4 silver pence
