	When the first light of the Beacon fell upon the galaxy, it illuminated little more than gas and dust, charging the formless void with magic. This arcane flux churned and shifted with the cosmos, and from it was born the Forgemaster, the second of the Elder Gods. The Forgemaster was the first creator, who built the galaxy from swirling dust in the first age of the divines. They are the maker of the great physical edifices of the gods, and of the bodies of the gods’ greatest children.

When the first light of the Beacon fell upon the galaxy, it illuminated little more than gas and dust, charging the formless void with magic. This arcane flux churned and shifted with the cosmos, and from it was born the Forgemaster, the second of the Elder Gods. The Forgemaster is a creator, who built the galaxy from swirling dust in the age before ages. The Forgemaster and their creations have been the overseers of some of the galaxy's great wonders and tragedies, sculpting with ingenuity great marvels of the cosmos and sparking with stubbornness many of the terrible wars of the divines. The Forgemaster is worshiped as a god of creation, science, and technology.

== Origin and Mythology ==
The Forgemaster is one of the Elder Gods, born of the shifting magic of the cosmos when the galaxy was young and the stars were but a glimmer in the eyes of infant divines. While in those ancient days it was the wish of the Light Bringer to let the gravity of their stars act as it would upon the primordial dust of the galaxy, the Forgemaster took it upon themselves to sculpt planets and constellations from the Light Bringer's work, and this disagreement very nearly spawned the first divine war, headed off only by the birth of the [[Two-Faced Ambassador]]. In the later divine ages, the Forgemaster built the [[Elder Dragons]] from purest crystal of the deep sky.

== Divine Domain and Circumstances ==
The Forgemaster is a god of creation, and a patron of those who seek to build new things. In this capacity they are a patron of scientists and engineers. In their interaction with mortals, they have taken on the myriad aspects of technology - a bringer of prosperity, a tool of peace, and a maker of ever more terrible war; many of the great superweapons of the Old Empires were dedicated to and powered by the Forgemaster.

== Depictions, Epithets, and Followers ==
The Forgemaster has been known as Vulcan, Our Lord in Iron,
