Flinx
Gender:male
Age:17
Race:Human
Nationality: to be defined
Appearance: agile, somewhat lanky, medium height.
Personality:This joung man seems to be unable to avoid getting some oil or arcanotech sigil paint on his hands - or even his face from time to time. Still, he mooves with precision and calm thoughtfullness, even though nobody would call him graceful.
History: Reared by a traveling family of tinkers and wandering tradesmen often working in concert with one or the other artisan group, craftsmen lodge or artiste troupe, he grew up never staying long in one place. He actually never got to know his mother or father as the former died in childbirth, and the latter was never known to the troupe.
So he grew up with a whole coterie of aunts and uncles, and soon started joining in with any activity he and the other camp children got assigned to. Hew started working with tools soon after he started walking, and took to them like a bird takes to the sky - meaning : with the occasional crash, awkward loopings and general clumsiness any joung fledgeling has while learning to - well, not exactly to fly. Not yet .
Generally speaking : the faster it goes, the more Flinx is fascinated by it. But even while not tinkering with some gadget or toy kite or trying to reduce the chassis weight and axle friction of the troupes wagon he is never somebody to stand back and watch.
It´s the little things that make him well liked with his troup and extended family, the care with wich he always tries to make somebodies daily life just a bit easier, just a little bit more comfortable.
Need a gadget for the old granma who can not bend down to put on her socks anymore ? Want a pair of glasses to improve old uncles bad eyesight, or solve aunties increasing deafness with a neat and comfortable hatlike thingawhatchamaycallit ?
Flinx will gladly tinker around as long as it takes to solve any problem if it catches his fancy, and generally everything that makes life easier ( or faster ) catches his fancy easily. He could never understand why all the problems keep on piling up anyway ? After all, there is an easy and stylish solution to every problem, no ?
If only people where as easy to understand as his gadgets. And where did he put that air-affiliated core auntie brought over yesterday... ?
