In addition to the stationary tools, each discipline requires hand-held tools including a hammer, tongs, shovel, bellows, oil, and other various tools to craft items. All necessary tools can be purchased at a Society building. Higher quality forging tools are made with the Blacksmithing and Carving disciplines.
