Fizzle-Bang (Gnorl Sparkspanner)

Role: The Mad Tinker
Description: A gnome who operates a cluttered workshop in the "Scrap Heaps" of Fortune's Lake. He is missing several fingers and half an eyebrow.
The Hook: Fizzle-Bang specializes in "Wastes-Tech"—unstable devices powered by Void-Shards. From gravity-defying boots to "Anti-Magic Umbrellas," his inventions are highly effective until the moment they inevitably explode.
