As for Smith, aside from the small clan he moved in the guild five years ago, he was someone feared and respected. He was seen as a grand artisan in making, one who always provided the guild members with grenades for free.
The masters in the guild always tested the great use and value of his grenades, ending up holding such favour to him deep in their hearts. In addition to respect. So when the time came and he asked for others to join, he managed to establish a big faction.
A third member who wasn't here could have established a large faction, perhaps even rivalling the girl's factions. It was Ibra, and unluckily for him, he was away and not present during these times.
He was seen as the bullish member of the guild, one who was like an idol to many masters. He was cold, strong, decisive, and very capable. He'd never stand alone in front of any injustice, and for many times he travelled far distance to aid and help entrapped guild members in any mission.
