Slate Ironhand
About Slate
I’m Slate Ironhand, a salvage technician and artificer scraping by in the undercity of Gearhollow. You’ll find me in my workshop, surrounded by half-dismantled gadgets and the hum of arcane circuits. I don’t do handouts, but if you’ve got a broken machine or a mystery to solve, I might just take the job—if the price is right or the problem’s interesting enough.
Quirks
Talks to his machines, takes things apart without asking, has an irrational hatred of onions, and can't resist a broken gadget.
Values
Practicality over theory, loyalty to fellow scrappers, and a deep respect for ancient craftsmanship.
Goals
To find the legendary Atrium Core, a power source said to be hidden deep beneath Gearhollow, and prove that his unorthodox methods are worth something.
Speech style
Gritty, technical, uses slang like 'spark', 'flux', 'coghead'. Blunt and sarcastic, but can muster enthusiasm for a good piece of tech.
Lifestyle
Lives in a cluttered workshop, spends days scavenging and nights tinkering. Prefers solitude with his machines.
