A draconic smith who has attended every festival since the first. No age is stated; "ageless" records that, and does not assert adulthood. She is therefore not glamour-eligible despite an adult-coded design.
The smith who has been present since the first festival. She does not compete; she rules on whether a weapon is genuinely a weapon the entrant made herself.
