Smith caste

The Smith Caste is the caste of the dwarven society responsible for the means of production and their applied use.

Background
In the complex web that is dwarven society, the Smiths are responsible for providing the finished goods required by the other castes (the Warrior Caste needs weapons and armor, Mining Caste needs equipment, etc). As with the other castes, there are draconian rules governing many aspects of their lives, such as inheritance, marriage, etc.

Even if Janar is a smith like his family is for a hundred generations, he also acts as a merchant and owns a shop, meaning that the Smith caste may be allowed to act as merchants under certain circumstances. Another similar case is with Garin.
