FEATURED
Grimbly Gearspring is stout where gnomes are typically slight, and wiry where they are typically round: a combination that suggests a life spent equally bent over a workbench and hauling things that needed hauling. His coal-black eyes glint with a perpetual fascination for gadgets, and his hands are constantly smudged with oil and grime from his tinkering endeavors. A shock of unruly white hair crowns his head, often hiding the goggles perched atop his forehead. His nimble fingers dance over contraptions and components, exhibiting a skilled dexterity that only comes from years of tinkering. Grimbly's attire is a patchwork of rugged fabrics, showcasing various shades of earthy brown and mossy green, undoubtedly the result of both necessity and utility. His animated conversations often revolve around the inner workings of clockwork and steam-powered contrivances. With a warm and eager smile, Grimbly is ever-ready to share his enthusiasm for the world of gears, cogs, and which type of grease to use for this or that with those who enter his emporium.
He manages Grimbly's Adventuring Emporium, supported by his apprentice Nib Flickerpin.
