Armorer

Introduction
Fashioning armor was once seen as the duty of the blacksmiths. Yet some devoted themselves exclusively to armorcraft as time passed, and the best of these became known in their own right. The skill of these armorers in shaping metal plates also attracted the attention of seafarers, who wished to fortify their vessels' hulls with steel. To this day, only the best armorers bear the title of "Shipwright", and are deeply respected throughout Limsa Lominsa.

None of this came to pass without conflict however. As armorers began to stand apart from smiths, the guild was torn atwain. Ultimately, the former left altogether. seeking in separation the indepence of a proper Armorer's Guild. Thus, although both guilds share a common history, they also share a rivalry, and attempt to outdo one another at every oppurtunity.
