Assets
A duel forge, with house and shop attached. The shop is very small, a single room sales floor with a counter and a tiny storage area behind it for storing finished products that aren't wanted on the sales floor. The house is large (three bedrooms, kitchen, and common area) but very dilapidated with only one bedroom, and the kitchen in livable condition at the time of occupancy (and that only due to Torin working on them). The runeforge and blacksmith forges are behind the shop, which is attached to the house. The whole setup is surrounded by a yard big enough to have horses in (for shoeing, etc), which is in turn surrounded by a tall fence.
Torin has taken on a binding contract to provide his working hours mainly to house Luekos for the first two years after he opens the business, with the option to renew if both parties agree.
Debts:
None at the moment, Torin saved every penny during his 14-year apprenticeship to set himself up with a shop and house along with the equipment he needs, some of which he either made or helped make.
Seasonal Interest Rate: Currently not applicable.
Description of Business:
The shop front is small but inviting with a large window of displayed items next to its wide door. A wooden sign with the business name and logo swings above the door. Inside the shop, there are display cases, the window case, and stands for displaying weapons or larger tools. The items in the shop are all for sale but are meant more as example pieces of the work offered since the runesmith prefers to work for clients who need specialty work or new things invented. The shop is manned by an eager young boy, who can explain the items in the shop or fetch 'Master Kilvin' if the customer wants to discuss having something made. Torin Kilvin himself spends most of his time in either his runeforge or the attached blacksmithy out behind the shop where the work of his hammer can be heard ringing most days. It is obvious to anyone used to shopping for runeforged material that the owner is just starting out with none of the grand decor or ostentation that is seen in runeforges that have been around for any real length of time. Though young, the smith is a serious and intentional man who knows his craft and loves it. His feelings for the work can be seen in the carefulness and detail of even the simplest of tools that come out of his forges.
The business was started with all his own investment money, in fact, it was nearly every penny he had managed to save, so he eats and lives by what he can now make in the business. There is no room for failure, lest he find himself with no home and no means to provide for himself, so he is doubly motivated to work hard and succeed.
