The genesis forge is a mighty magical manufactory once operated by House Cannith as one of their greatest ever creations. Built in Cyre , it is now lost in the Mournland . [1]
Description
The genesis forge is truly colossal, a fortress-sized magical device and vastly larger than the conventional creation forge used to create warforged . [1]
Creation
Construction requires significant amounts of basic materials, as well as rare metals and dragonshards for its operation. Moreover, it must be located on a site on strong residual magical energy and at least a faint connection to one of the elemental planes. Needless to say, there is only one. [1]
Powers
Provided it is fed huge quantities of raw materials, it is able to mass-produce mundane goods, such as tools, weapons, and armor, and if supplied with residuum , it can also create magic items . Moreover, it does four times faster than any ordinary craftsmen and for half the cost. And if rumors are to be believed, it can even produce creation forges. [1]
History
Since its creation, House Cannith made good use of its sole genesis forge to mass produce both mundane items and magic items. [1]
As it was situated in Cyre, the genesis was lost in the Mourning , and now seems lost or destroyed in the Mournland. [1]
To this day, House Cannith still reels from its loss and endeavors to reacquire the necessary components and identify a suitable site to rebuild the genesis forge.
