Sszuthis Qal
Artificer (Researcher Specialist variant)
Sszuthis Qal
Species
Lizardfolk (unusually tiny for his kind, treated as a unique sub-variant)
Appearance
A tiny lizardfolk whose scales form a worn mosaic of blues and soot-stained copper; he moves with the slow precision of someone who measures everything twice before doing it once. His left forearm is an intricately jointed brass prosthetic threaded with glass tubing that pulses faintly with contained aether. He favors leaning on a carved stilt-walking cane when walking across uneven ground, but in water his gait becomes fluid and unexpectedly quick. Contradiction: his eyes betray a childlike curiosity that brightens his whole face even as his posture and dress suggest formal, methodical restraint.
“Carefully enunciated with a sibilant undertone; uses technical metaphors and asks many clarifying questions. Despite being elderly, his voice carries a crisp, reedy clarity.”

Clothing
A patched leather jerkin studded with tiny pockets and loops for tools, a neckcloth woven with sigils of preservation, and fingerless gloves stained with oil and alchemical residue. He wears a chain of tiny glass vials around his neck that clink softly as he walks.
Body Language
Small, deliberate gestures like a clockmaker; fingers constantly roll and tap as if counting invisible gears; when excited he drums a staccato on nearby surfaces
