Sivik
Rogue 6, Thief, Master Rigger
Sivik
Species
Cinderclaw, Forge-Kin
Appearance
Sivika is a compact Cinderclaw with rust-brown scales that darken around the joints and heat-whitened claw tips polished smooth by years of wirework. He moves with a peculiar side-weighted gait, always keeping his left foot planted beneath him as if standing on a swaying deck, then snapping forward in sudden, precise bursts. His shoulders are narrow, but his forearms are corded from hauling tension lines. His muzzle is crowded with tiny brass measuring pins that he removes before eating. The unexpected impression is one of fragility: from a distance he looks like a nervous furnace pest, yet when a gantry buckles, he becomes utterly still, balanced and calm while everyone else panics.
“Rapid, clipped, and precise, with sudden pauses whenever he hears metal strain. His voice has a dry rasp from years of furnace smoke, but it softens noticeably when speaking to apprentices or frightened workers.”

Distinguishing Features
Heat-whitened claw tips stained with blue soldering flux.
A constant left-foot brace against nearby surfaces, even while standing still.
Tiny brass measuring pins tucked between his muzzle scales.
A tail fitted with three removable copper rings used as wire guides.
His silence during danger, which is more unsettling than his usual rapid chatter.
Voice
“A dry, quick rasp with a metallic undertone, like a file drawn across a thin copper plate.”
Clothing
A soot-dark oilskin harness crosses his chest and hips, crowded with wire-spools, tension pliers, solder torches, calipers, chalk, and folded inspection tags. He wears a sleeveless quilted vest, reinforced climbing trousers, copper-toed work boots, and a hooded wind-cowl lined with heatproof felt.
Body Language
Sivika rarely stands squarely. He rests his left foot against a wall, brace, or floor seam and keeps two fingers touching nearby metal. When concentrating, he freezes so completely that only the faint ticking of his claw against a tool gives him away. In motion, he darts, pivots, and climbs with startling economy, never wasting a step.
