This guild has over four hundred members, those who
cast (rather than forge) items from metal. The Guild livery
depicts their two most popular products: a tankard
and a bell. Bowls and books are probably the next most
often produced items. Players Handbook prices provide
a guide for the DM in improvising the costs of such
wares. The Guild buys the raw materials, and mixes a
“basic whitemetal” mixture which it sells to its members
cheaply (1 cp for a foot-long, three-inch-high and wide,
bar) as the basis for such castings, but members like to
add their own “secret ingredients” to make their
products superior. The “trusted” in the Guild title refers
to the fact that Guild members will melt things down for
re-casting without query or comment. Precious metals
are rarely handled by this Guild, who leave gold- and
silver-work to The Jewellers' Guild and to The Splendid
Order of Armorers, Locksmiths, And Finesmiths.
