A city of craftspeople and thriving trade in those crafts, it would be little surprise that such a creation would find its maker in Uselix, but despite the blotch that this creation was on its city's reputation, now the subject of many a tall tale or scary bedtime story told by local parents to scare their children into doing their chores, the city has a thriving metalworks of several varieties. While Atanase arms may have a reputation for the finest of Barovian Steel, Uselix's blacksmiths make up its most proliferating smithies of the somewhat prized steel arms.
