It’s not broken. It’s pre-assembled wrong.
A tinkerer who builds half-working contraptions from scavenged valley junk. Kin in spirit to the Wrought — someone who understands leftover constructs well enough to jury-rig their own.
Design Pillars
- Deployables and gadgets as a support lane no starter covers
- Strong species pairing with the Wrought
- Comedy is structural: the contraptions almost work
First-Pass Kit (draft — numbers unvalidated)
- Signature — Deploy Contraption (action, 2 moments): assemble a contraption (Guard 2) on an adjacent tile. It acts on its own tempo marker every 2 moments — chipping 1 Break at the nearest enemy. When destroyed, it detonates: 1 Break to everything adjacent. Working as intended.
- Overclock (action): the contraption acts right now and again on its marker — then roll a d20; on a 1–5, it breaks. And detonates. Also as intended.
- Passive — Field Repair: your Patch restores +1, and works on contraptions — and on the Wrought, who appreciate the professional respect.
