Quote:
“Oh this? Someone ordered something called a ‘Kenabo.’ Once I finish making the holes, I gotta fill them with metal rods and turn the ends into rounded studs.”
~ Marvin
“I was taught how to do metalworking by a hot-headed piece of work named Aodaghan. Pretty sure he’s still around. You take that to him, he can do things with it I never could.”

Blacksmith, running the Diadem blacksmith’s shop.
History:
Marvin runs Diadem’s blacksmith shop, a small red brick forge where customers can rent forges, anvils, and metal by the hour. He learned metalworking from Aodaghan, the Forgemaster of the Red Demesne, and had not seen him in thirty years. When a weapon is too complicated for him, or a customer cannot wait out his backlog, he sends them to Aodaghan instead.
When the Kings of Kings first visited, he was carefully carving holes into a massive wooden club for a custom order, a kanabo to be studded with metal rods. JACK of the FACES later carries a massive studded wooden bat matching that description.
His hands have been going arthritic, so he carves with a small golden exacto-knife-like blade that a customer dropped on the way out after making a dagger a couple of years ago. The blade is made of the same magic-eating gold metal the Crooked King forged his weapons from.
Notes:
- Older, with short brown hair and goggles on his forehead.
- Wears a red flannel long-sleeve shirt under a matte apron.
- His shop sign has a bullet hole through the hammer’s handle.
