Species

Gnome (Rock Gnome)

Appearance

Bimblewock is a compact, energetic gnome with a perpetual ink-smudge crescent on the left side of his jaw, as if he once kissed a pen. He moves like a pocket whirlwind: quick feet, hands that never stop arranging invisible stacks, and a habitual lean forward when listening. His coat is always dusted in powdered paper and gilt leaf, and a pair of brass-rimmed spectacles perches on a narrow nose so often they leave faint indentations. Unexpectedly, the right sleeve of his coat is longer and more worn than the left; beneath it he hides a small, well-oiled mechanical caliper that ticks softly whenever he’s nervous. Up close he smells faintly of old paper, citrus peel, and the metallic tang of ink.

Height3'4"
BuildCompact, springy; deceptively solid in the shoulders but slight in the waist
EyesHazel flecked with gold—one pupil slightly smaller than the other from a childhood illness
HairSlate gray with thin silver streaks concentrated at the temples
SkinWarm cream with small, faded ink freckles along the forearms and cheeks

Polished, quick, and punctuated by parenthetical remarks. He enjoys appositions and will correct an ill-used word gently.”

Distinguishing Features

Ink-smeared crescent on left jaw

Asymmetrically worn sleeve concealing a ticking caliper

Brass-rimmed spectacles with three tiny lenses he flips between

Indentation on nose from constant spectacle wear

Voice

High and quick, with a practiced cadence like someone reading aloud from a play. He softens consonants when coaxing secrets and becomes clipped when on the defensive.

Clothing

A waistcoat of deep bottle green embroidered with tiny glyphs in gilt thread, a leather satchel reinforced with stitched vellum pockets, knee breeches, and soft-soled boots for quiet steps. He wears a narrow chain locket with a sealed slip of ancestral handwriting inside.

Body Language

Fidgets with his spectacles when thinking, straightens spines of books as if reassuring them, and inclines his head forward when listening as if bridging a gap of two pages.
