"To improve this sword, the weak spots must be hammered off. And that's the truth."

- Mace

Mace, known as the master blacksmith, was a skilled blacksmith with several disciples of his own before he disappeared without warning. Mace moved to the isolated Seek Valley, working in solitude. The Toran Liberation Army encountered him there, with Mace remarking first that the Liberation Army was too small to change the world and, after it grew, that he simply couldn't trust the force. However, Mace's disciples, Maas, Meese, Mose and Moose were able to convince Mace to come out of retirement and serve the Toran Liberation Army.

Following the Gate Rune War, Mace let his disciple, Moose succeed him as the master blacksmith before retiring for good.
