Hephaistos, Kagu-tsuchi, Ingerimm – Gods of the forge are not quite as common as hunters. However they often play crucial parts in their respective pantheons.

Seeing that Wizards now released a playtest version of their take on a forge domain, I find it interesting how very alike the two versions are in a lot of ways and that the main difference seems to come down to prioritising spellcasting (in your version) versus melee (the Wizards version).
