Staff
The staff at the makeshift forge varies with Geralt's choice of path. If he chooses the Scoia'tael path, then the blacksmith is none other than Malcolm Stein, but if he chooses the Order path, then he is served by an Order armourer. On the neutral path, the forge is not the place to get armour, Kalkstein's lab is.
