Fizzlebang is a small gnome with copper skin and wild, bright orange hair tied back with several leather straps. He wears colorful vestments over his leather armor, covered in pockets containing various small brass parts. He always carries a lute that appears to be part machine, with small spinning cogs visible near the bridge.

Fizzlebang is a perpetual motion machine in gnome form. He finds the rhythmic potential in everything from dripping faucets to the clash of swords. He believes there is no tragedy that cannot be eased by a perfectly timed chord and no celebration that is quite loud enough.

Born in the echoing tunnels of the Great Gear Peaks, Fizzlebang was always the odd gnome out. While his cousins were content measuring the friction coefficients of axle grease, he was busy tapping out polyrhythms on the boiler tanks. He was eventually asked to leave the Tinkerer's Guild after his self playing bagpipe prototype caused a minor steam explosion in the main laboratory. He realized then that his inventions lacked the one thing the world truly needed: a soul. He swapped his gold plated wrench for a battered lute and set out to find the Universal Chord, a mythical sound he believes connects the grinding gears of the cosmos to the hearts of all living beings. He now wanders from tavern to tavern, collecting stories and sounds to add to his mechanical symphony. He hopes that one day he can create an instrument that doesn't just play music, but explains the meaning of existence through a really good drum solo.
