== History ==
At the dawn of Creation, Phaestus aided [[Proteus]] in crafting the innumerable planets and in sculpting the beings that
would dwell within their myriad landscapes. Together, They touched on the secret of consciousness, and laid the foundations for life. As a gift to the mortals, Phaestus blessed them with the ability to create for themselves using the resources surrounding them.


Phaestus is father to one specific [[:Category:Adventurer races|race]]; the sole creator of the dwarvenkind. The Smith first used them as intelligent tools and companions as, at that point, they were nothing more than complex machinery. Unable to grant them self-consciousness alone, Phaestus eventually pledged His eternal loyalty to Proteus at the beginning of the [[War of Humanity]] in exchange for their free will.

An example of Phaestus' capability comes in the form of a gift to [[Pandora]], Goddess of Mischief. He crafted Her a new hand after Her own was lost due to being fused with the [[Caduceus of Castigation]], a relic belonging to [[Sarapis]].
 
Phaestus is known for always carrying His namesake Hammer, the [[Hammer of Phaestus]].

The potent town crier's bell (shortname: criersbell) is a talisman artefact with piercing peals, able to pulverise the magical shields (of both adventurers and denizens) and prismatic barriers protecting their targets. Ringing the sonorous artefact carries a balance cost and always targets a shield (if present) before attempting to shatter a barrier. Tolling the enchanted bell at a target begins the process of sending a foe to the Halls of Ugrach. The instrument is mysterious reminiscent of one borne by the town crier of Loramere.
