Goldsmith 💍
A page detailing the Goldsmith role within Medieval Discord and their forge command.
Description:
The Goldsmith is a very prestigious role in Rosewood's market. A goldsmith is a skilled artisan who works with gold and other precious metals to create a variety of objects such as jewelry, decorative objects, and religious items. The goldsmith's workshop (called a "bijou") is equipped with specialized tools, such as a crucible, blowpipe, and filigree tools, as well as various materials including gold, silver, and gems. To create a piece, the goldsmith first melts the gold and then shapes it using techniques such as casting, hammering, and engraving. Goldsmiths are highly valued members of society, as their creations are often used to display wealth and power. They are also employed to create objects for religious ceremonies and have a significant role in the production of illuminated manuscripts.
Mechanics:
Just like every other smith, the Goldsmith uses the forge command in order to turn simple materials into complex products which can then be used in trading or selling in the Market. Using this command will open up a dropdown menu wherein you can choose what you want to make. All smiths can use their personal storage in addition to their inventories when using the forge command!

Relationship with the Market and other Users:
Just like all other smiths in Medieval Discord, goldsmiths have a complex relationship with other artisans, the market, and their customers. Unlike Blacksmiths, goldsmiths usually sell their products to wealthier members of society.
Since the raw materials they need to make their wares are costly, their labor and finished products cost a lot as well. Jewellery is by no means an essential item to be bought and sold by the common person. Instead, goldsmiths will likely find themselves selling to the market most of the time.
They can maximize their profits by trying to procure the materials they need from Miners who might have struck gold, both literally and metaphorically. By doing this, goldsmiths ensure they pay less for their raw materials while also allowing miners to make more money in the same trade.
