Tod and I are both historians, I wonder if it makes sense for one of us to focus on making weapons and the other one be the scholar.

Makes sense to me, my only concern with taking weapons is that I have to rely on others to provide me metal. That being said, Thoerin is a prospector and now that I am through the bronze cycle my two characters are no longer fighting over metal.

I don't have a strong preference to doing either weaponcrafting or scholar. Which one do you want?

I don't know how much overlap there is between weaponcrafting and scholar, but in the other crafting areas there is a high dependence between the disciplines.  It would be difficult to be a heavy armorsmith without doing the light/medium smithing as well.

Well, I've been doing weaponsmithing with Delori, but letting Khismet get all his metal, and Camile provide the leather.

Considering that Delori is so far ahead of me on crafting as an historian I think the discussion maybe moot. I am not sure what the best answer is... I have no problem being the scholar if you want to continue being the weaponsmith

Ok. I'll keep going with Historian, and start sending the weaponsmithing recipes I pick to you.
