Cost of 5 Blood:
~70 gold for the province (makes ~14 blood / turn )
~35 gold for maintainance for the 2 skratti
7.5 gold for 1 blood.

~16 gold maintanance for the 1 skratti to forge the item
so the item costs: about 53 gold.

It's even better : skrattis staying in werewolf (or wolf) form cost zero upkeep.

So all werewolves thugs, and skrattis forging low level items they can make in werewolf form (up to blood 2 / water 2 for some of them) are maintainance free.

(it's an advantage the jotuns share with other nations using multi-shapes units, like Machaka whose sacred are free once the rider is destroyed - it may be WAD or a mistake to have forgoten gold cost on some units-)

Trying to use this can be the base of an interesting low-upkeep strategy with magic 3 (as level 1/1 werewolves with 6 rp are good enough researchers) : a seithkna cost 90g + 6g of upkeep for 7 rp, so after 27 turns of research cost more than a skratti staying in werewolf shape (who produce the same number of rp in 32 turns, not an huge difference).
