An Isekai Story

A lean and wiry man in his early forties, Fitz has a face often smudged with oil and bearing the faint imprint of various tools. His keen brown eyes are magnified by a jeweler's loupe perched on his forehead, and his thinning brown hair is perpetually disheveled. He wears sturdy canvas overalls over a long-sleeved shirt, both adorned with numerous pockets overflowing with tools and spare parts. Thick leather gloves cover his hands, their fingertips worn smooth from constant use. Fitz's workshop is filled with the sounds of tiny clicks and whirs, and he often sports a slightly lopsided grin when demonstrating his latest creations.

Fitz is a brilliant and dedicated mechanical artisan, utterly captivated by the intricacies of gears, levers, and the elegant dance of moving parts. He possesses an almost obsessive attention to detail and a relentless drive to create increasingly complex and functional mechanisms. While he can be somewhat introverted and more comfortable in the company of his automatons than people, he is fiercely passionate about his craft and delights in sharing his creations with those who appreciate their ingenuity. He can become deeply engrossed in his work, often losing track of time and the world around him. However, beneath his somewhat eccentric exterior lies a kind and inventive spirit.

Fitz, Gearhaven's Mechanical Artificer since youth, apprenticed with a clockmaker, mastering complex automatons. His intricate, functional creations, from self-winding clocks to elaborate mechanical assistants, brought him fame. His legendary workshop overflows with gears, springs, wires, and works-in-progress, showing his dedication to mechanical perfection. The arrival of summoned heroes sparks new ideas for Fitz, especially those with seemingly mechanical powers like enhanced strength or energy manipulation. He offers equipment repairs and modifications to study their abilities and technology. Fitz aims to build automatons mimicking or enhancing hero powers, envisioning a new age of innovation in Solara. He sees heroes not as magical, but as sources of revolutionary mechanical principles awaiting discovery and application to his craft. His inquisitive mind views their unique traits as blueprints for future advancements, eager to understand the mechanics behind their capabilities.
