Appearance

Identifying Characteristics

Messy brown hair, green eyes.

Apparel & Accessories

Often wearing goggles; no one is entirely sure what they do, and Nizu is happy to propagate the mystery (he just likes how they look).
Usually covered in dirt and grime from his latest experiment; the teachers have tried to teach him prestidigitation, but he doesn't mind it.

Mentality

Personal history

Nizu lost his family when he was very young. He survived on his own in the forest for a time, but eventually crossed paths with travelers that brought him to the refugee camp. Surrounded by tools and devices completely foreign to him, he immediately became fascinated. Looking for excuses to be near the objects of his curiosity, he volunteered to help wherever he could, and quickly became a reputable handy-gnome. Pestering half the camp for odd jobs, his magical abilities didn’t escape notice for long, and he was brought up to the school.

Employment

Handy-Gnome. Will repair or improve anything. Not liable if the pieces don't fit back together after being taken apart.

Failures & Embarrassments

His inventions sometimes look better in his head than they turn out. Nizu has destroyed some of his friends' cherished belongings trying to 'improve' them.

Mental Trauma

Too young at the time, Nizu doesn't remember exactly what happened to his family. He often has nightmares about it.

Intellectual Characteristics

Easily distracted by his own curiosity. For every project completed, several remain unfinished.

Morality & Philosophy

Nizu wants to help everyone, but it isn't hard to convince him to be involved in mild shenanigans -- for science, of course!
Loyal to his friends. He remembers being alone in the forest, and he doesn't want to feel like that again.

Taboos

Uncomfortable talking about his past before the refugee camp.

Known Languages

Common, Gnomish, Halfling
