Greta Ironwood — Village Blacksmith of Greenbranch
Greenbranch's blacksmith Greta Ironwood keeps every plow and hinge in the village running -- and lately, keeps the militia's mended blades holding an edge, with a quiet stockpile of her own she hasn't told anyone about.
Introduction
Cross Greenbranch's market square on any given morning and you'll hear her before you see her — a steady, unhurried hammer-ring rising from the forge at the square's edge, cutting clean through the noise of vendors and gossip. Greta Ironwood has kept that forge lit for longer than most of the stallholders around her have worked their own trades, turning out plowshares, hinges, and horseshoes with the same care she now spends on something Greenbranch never used to need much of: mended blades and reinforced shields for a militia that's stretched thinner than anyone likes to admit.

"Bring me steel, bring me time, and I'll bring you something that holds an edge — and holds together when it matters."
Appearance: Greta is broad-shouldered and solidly built, with forearms roped from decades at the anvil and a face permanently touched with soot no amount of washing quite lifts. Her dark hair is cropped short and practical, and a thick leather apron, singed in a dozen places, covers her work clothes almost completely. Her hands are calloused and sure, and she has a habit of testing the balance of any tool or weapon handed to her before she says a word about it.
