Wise and might DM, would it be reasonable, being a forge cleric, that Thorven has used his "Blessing of the Forge" ability prior to coming here? I feel like he would be prepared no matter what is expected and have his weapon enhanced pretty much always.
[ +- ] Blessing of the Forge
At 1st level, you gain the ability to imbue magic into a weapon or armor. At the end of a long rest, you can touch one nonmagical object that is a suit of armor or a simple or martial weapon. Until the end of your next long rest or until you die, the object becomes a magic item, granting a +1 bonus to AC if it's armor or a +1 bunish to attack and damage rolls if it's a weapon.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
