Karin is a highly-regarded dwarven blacksmith in Emon. As an NPC, she is played by Matthew Mercer.

Description[edit | edit source]

Karin is a very sturdy, muscular dwarven woman, with graying hair pulled back into a tight bun. She has a bit of scruff on her chin.[1]

Biography[edit | edit source]

Background[edit | edit source]

When Vex'ahlia asked Karin to step outside her shop, the blacksmith became wary and mentioned having a few "encounters" in the past.[2]

Campaign 1: Vox Machina[edit | edit source]

In three separate visits: Vex'ahlia commissioned Karin to create custom armor for Trinket made from the carapace of a bulette,[3] Tiberius commissioned her to create a five-pointed throwing weapon,[4] and Scanlan commissioned her to create seven chainmail chokers.[5]

Relationships[edit | edit source]

Vox Machina[edit | edit source]

Karin always seems keen to build the odd and eccentric machinations of Vox Machina, as it provides a challenge and they usually provide the materials necessary from their own supplies.
