Personality[]
Smith is a practical individual who questions Adventurers who value style over safety and pragmatism; despite this, he does admit annoyance at Goblin Slayer who he views as too practical sometimes.
Chronology[]
Daikatana[]
The Smith had set up shop in the Fortress City of the Dungeon of the Dead, where he was contracted by Female Warrior to replace her damaged spear and get new equipment. Admitting magic spears weren't exactly easy to come by, he gave her a new spear as compensation and equipment as he searched for materials to make the spear.
Sadly, the Smith never found a magic spear, so he affixed a magic dagger to a pole arm to create the requested magic spear. However, by the time he finished forging the spear, Female Warrior had already found a suitable replacement.
Year One Volume 1[]
A few years later, the Smith relocated to the Frontier Town and become impressed with a young rookie who focused more on equipment that focused on safety and functionality. His praise would turn into annoyance as he learned the rookie kept throwing away all the swords he sold him.
Later on, Spearman came to the Smith requesting a magic spear, so Smith gave him the Spear he had made for Female Warrior
Goblin Slayer Volume 1[]
After using his Gate Scroll to slay an Ogre, Goblin Slayer asked Smith to try an procure another one for him. Smith agreed but reminded him on how rare and hard to get they are; all the while complaining about Goblin Slayer throwing away more of his swords again.
Goblin Slayer Volume 3[]
At the equipment shop, Goblin Slayer purchased a Southern-style throwing knife when Smith offered it to him. Goblin Slayer also asked Smith to deliver a few barrels of dried fish to the farm.
Goblin Slayer Volume 4[]
Goblin Slayer Volume 13[]
During a "slow day" in his shop, the Smith realized The Girl had entered his shop and was trying to ask for advice, but was too shy. Realizing he would need to take the initiative, the Smith broke the ice and helped her buy beginning equipment. Feeling sorry for the obvious rookie with low self-esteem, the Smith gave her a discount and threw in some spare items for free.
