Description
His bronze complexion shines with the glow of vitality. His distinctive facial outline ends with a strong jaw line covered with dark beard. The first impression clearly shows he is a seasoned blacksmith with years of experience. The wide-shouldered man keeps humming with a deep voice while his muscular torso swings gently to the rhythm of the tune.
Ferghus is the blacksmith of Tir Chonaill. Though middle-aged, his well-defined musculature attests to his background and experience. He is most known for his less-than-artful management of travelers' equipment, many of which have met their fate under his hammer.
Occasionally, he is seen heavily intoxicated with his faithful friend, Ranald.
Ferghus' Quote: "What brought you here? Come on! speak your mind..." [1]
Ferghus can do blacksmith repairs which means he can repair all weapons, heavy armor, helmets, greaves, and gauntlets. However, he is not well known as the most effective blacksmith for repairing items (90% success rate for unblessed items which is the lowest of any NPC doing blacksmith repairs). He often warns players, unfortunately after finishing any repairs, about the importance of blessing your items with a Holy Water of Lymilark in order to improve his chances of successfully repairing them.
A good example of why not to repair items with Ferghus is in Episode 4 of Lorna & Pan. After Lorna gained "the Golem Slayer" title, she went to the infamous blacksmith to repair her Long Sword, which she had bought from him in Episode 3. However, Ferghus accidentally broke 100% of its durability, leaving Lorna in shock and also gaining knowledge of the "is a friend of Ferghus" title. Pan then states that Ferghus was never a great blacksmith, which is a very good reason not to repair items with him.
Note that, if "the Lucky Guy/Girl" title is equipped then he will comment about it after finishing any repairs (he compliments the title if he succeeds or blames the title for any failures) instead of saying the usual bit about blessing an item. However, the title only increases Luck which has no effect on his repair success rate.
