Description: [edit] [history]

Nuri, an [Assistant Glassworker], only has a single Skill, but he's worried it's not safe to use.

He's worked in the hot shop his entire career, following in his father's footsteps after his parents passed away, but he's certain there's more to life. Despite possessing above-average talent as an artisan, he still hasn't shed his [Assistant] status, gained a second Skill, or even reached the first Threshold. Besides, he's bored; most days he daydreams of adventure and becoming a hero, or pines for the renown that's sure to be his if he evolves his Class into a [Master Glass Smith]. Few things change in a small city, but when he's challenged to take responsibility for his shop's sister location, he learns that it's time to step up.

These days, Nuri sees more magic, prestige, and adventure than he can handle as he gets swept up in realm-shaking conspiracies and desperate fights for his life, but he always comes back to glass in the end. Making things is simply in his blood, and glass is magic.
