Nephropidae

Let me guess, you're new around here and require my services?

 

No? Then there's no reason for you to be here. Come back when you need something. I've got more important things to do.

Backstory

Hailing from a world of super heroes and villains, Nephropidae is the son of the infamous Dr. Calamity.

Born with an unknown debilitating illness, Nephro has lost the functions of his legs and right arm. His father managed to replace these with machinery, 'turning him into a living weapon for revenge. However Nephro could care less about his father's vengeance, and instead wishes to pursue a permanent solution to cure for his illness.

Nephro received an invite to Crossroads, but unlike most winners, he opteddid not to use his wish forto acure cure.himself. To him, magic is a pathetic and cheap solution to ones problems.

Instead, he took this opportunity to find other researchers and scientists to collaborate formulas and solutions to his illness. Wanting to take this formulaic cure home to aid those who may also be suffering from similar conditions.

In turn, he has offered to provide weapons, tools and technological services to those who request them.

This only sated him for so long unfortunately, as time waits for no one. Nearing his breaking point, Nephro did what he swore he never would. He turned to looking at magic for aid.

Still insistent on avoiding the easy route, he sought tutelage from Saki, who eased him into the ways of alchemy. He's been a practicing alchemist of four years now and is now able to provide enchantment and artifact repair services.

That all said, it's still quite possible that he has access to his wish somewhere...

Personality

Nephro is a fairly serious, no-nonsense man. Obedient and polite, he is fairly difficult to anger as he hides his frustration well beneath his apathetic scowl. He indulges in conversation only if necessary and is not one for small talk. He is blunt and direct, wanting to get straight to the point. Patrons only come to him for supplies or equipment. There should be no further interest!

However, Nephro will never turn a blind eye to another inventor or scientist. It's one of the few times he is more than eager to keep talking. He'll inquire about their creations and when asked about his own, he is usually willing to present some of his projects and can sometimes get lost in all the technological talk that someone might have to snap him back to reality.

Despite being the son of a super villain, Nephro absolutely loathes the terms of Heroes and Villains, as both have brought him nothing but stresspain and loss in his lifetime. He does not put himself on either side and instead focuses on solelythe himself. Don't bring that business up with him and he will aid whoever isrequires ofhis benefit to him.services.
