Barnaby Thistlethwaite
Wizard (School of Transmutation)
Barnaby Thistlethwaite
Species
Rock Gnome
Appearance
Barnaby is a whirlwind of organized chaos standing just over three feet tall. He moves with a frantic, jerky energy, his feet often moving faster than his torso can keep up with. He has a biological left eye of piercing hazel, while his right eye is replaced by a complex, brass mechanical lens that clicks and rotates as he focuses on different objects. His skin is the color of well-worn parchment, creased with hundreds of fine lines from squinting at tiny runes. He carries a faint, perpetual scent of old paper, bitter almond ink, and the sharp tang of ozone that lingers after a fresh spell. Contradictory to his cluttered shop, his own mustache is trimmed with surgical precision and waxed into two sharp, gravity-defying points.
“His speech is rapid-fire and academic, peppered with archaic technical terms. He frequently starts sentences with 'Statistically speaking' or 'By the laws of molecular density.”

Voice
“High-pitched, rapid, and sounding like a series of small, dry clicks interspersed with soft whistles.”
Clothing
He wears a high-collared vest of deep indigo velvet that is absolutely covered in pockets, loops, and silver clips for pens. Underneath is a clean but yellowing linen shirt with oversized cuffs to protect his wrists from ink stains. His trousers are practical wool, tucked into heavy leather boots that click rhythmically thanks to brass heel plates.
Body Language
Barnaby tends to stand on the tips of his toes when excited. He adjusts his mechanical eye obsessively whenever he is nervous or assessing a high-value item.
