History
"Great Crafter" is a title bestowed upon the most skilled craftsperson in the Patch Tribe at any one time. The Great Crafter is entrusted with the tribe's loftiest secrets in regards to their legendary crafting skills. Since a period known as the "Days of Quiet", the Great Crafters have held secrets so powerful that they are only passed from one Great Crafter to their successor through word of mouth when their bodies are no longer able to function. It is said that, if a Great Crafter agrees to create a weapon for a swordsman, there is no higher honor that can possibly be bestowed upon an individual by the Patch Tribe.

The current Great Crafter is a woman who created Etu for Anna Raregroove. This Great Crafter is the only one who held the title in the Patch Tribe's history to use her skills to create a weapon. For Anna, Etu is the embodiment of the Great Crafter's trust in her, her honor as a warrior, and the love held for her by the entire Patch Tribe.

In 150,081 CMT, Anna Raregroove revealed to Mushima that Etu had been created by the most recent Great Crafter of the Patch Tribe.
