[Picture Pending...]
KEY INFORMATION:
Age: Doesn't look a day over 34.
Gender: Male, at last check.
Race: Human.
Social Status: Occasionally Homeless, infrequently Noble.
Sexuality: Presumably heterosexual, though not well pronounced.
Height: 6'
Weight: 160 lbs.
Date of Birth:
Date of Death: He claims to have once known it and had it tattooed on the interior
Homeland: A small, long gone mountain settlement. He claims he doesn't remember its name and that it was burned down by vengeful bears.
Current Home: Thiil.
PHYSIOLOGY:
Build: Stands like an over-encumbered hat rack.
Hair: A firey mass of flaming hair
Eyes: Though allegedly green at birth, said to have picked up a yellow color over
time due to chemical experimentation.
Skin: Caucasian
Identifying Marks: While Fritz often covers his appendages and torso, a series of
approximately 237 scars of varying size run from the backs of his hands, up his
arms, along his torso, and about halfway down his legs, the most notable of which is
a long scar running from just below his sternum and winding around his shoulder
blade to almost the middle of his back. For this reason, Fritz is a strong proponent
of robes and long coats.
Appearance: Fritz, to his questionable satisfaction, has been called a startling
individual in the past. His eyes, which are often concealed by a large pair of
elaborate and worn goggles, are said to have been slowly tinted a shade of yellow
due to chemical exposure and a deficiency of copper in his diet.
Clothing: While his threadbare and worn clothing is liable to blow away in a strong
breeze some day, those without traumatic repression recount his wearing a long brown
coat, leather gloves, striped pants, well-worn boots, and a peculiar pair of
goggles.
Weaponry: Fritz often travels with no less than eight different types of medical
implements of a sharp variety, though he is not known to handle anything but his fists and blunt objects as weapons in times of desperation. Be careful not to do anything overtly
unethical whilst he's trying to enjoy a hot cup of tea.
Prized Possessions: Fritz's Goggles, bearing a mildly brassy color, are oriented as
two shallow cylindrical chambers in which seemingly opaque yellow lenses are set.
Hygiene: While his hair often appears to need a trim and a few washings, Fritz has
meticulously maintained oral hygiene. He also holds firm beliefs in the frequent
washing of hands, though, if asked, he will respond that having blood on your hands
will make your bread stain your teeth.
Voice: Fritz enunciates well, but has a tendency to put a slight sharpness on his more guttural syllables. In long, rambling instances, Fritz has been known to speak himself entirely out of breath by mid-sentence. In times of necessity, Fritz has been known to assume a tome like razors in winter, that is to say, rather sharp and unpleasant upon reaching your ears.
QUALITIES AND FLAWS:
Strengths: Claims to be a well traveled and thoroughly experienced physician, though
this comes from a man known to keep live rats. Regardless of his strange mannerisms,
Fritz is a devoted physician. Were a list to be compiled through careful cross-
examination and application of a pointed stick, Fritz would allege to have
experience in medicine, surgery, alchemy, machinery, writing, mathematics,
machinery, and book keeping. Of course, these would have to be wrested from a string of other activities such as dance instruction and the playing of instruments only audible to horses.
Fears: Fritz claims to hold no fears, barring those of bodily, emotional, mental, or otherwise emotional injury or general harm. While, he admits, that may allow for some expansion of the list, it is of no consequence, for he's quite good at suppressing his shrill screaming. That being said, of course, Fritz holds a deep seated fear of losing those close to him in the constantly turbid storm of the world around him. He fears his own ignorance as a potential cause of such harm. He fears the fallibility of his own ethical guidelines, and is known to stress late into the night over such things.
Weaknesses: Fritz, for all he's worth, cannot handle anything more than a moderately
skilled tavern brawler in a fight. His strategies of battle usually align with exit
strategies, making him unreliable in combat situations. Having been, at some point
in his life, what might be classified as a 'Deranged Homicidal Maniac', Fritz often
feels deep remorse for his idealistic crimes. Having lived a life unabated by and
irreverent of numerous laws, Fritz tends to function off of a personal ethical
compass, making him susceptible to nervous psychotic episodes in times of deep
stress and fear.
Intelligence: An eccentric nature often earns him the dubbing of an idiot, but he
contends that he must be quite lucky to have made it as far as he has with such a
purportedly low amount of activity in his skull.
Languages: Common (A bit too well for his own good in some cases.), Elven (Educated
by a long-term patient.)
Profession: Itinerant Physician/Medically Inclined Vagabond. Well practiced
alchemist and machinist as situations demand. Known to moonlight as a Librarian
and/or Great Horned Owl in spite of pleas from colleagues to desist and to get off
of furniture. Known to be an amateur undertaker and exhumer, though those are more
hobbies.
ETHICS AND MOTIVATIONS:
Personality: Fritz, formerly a practitioner of significantly reduced ethical
standards, turned over a new leaf long ago. In light times, he has a notably amicable and generous way about him, if not slightly confusing or unnerving. In harder times, he can be sharp tongued and harsh.
Religion or Cults: Upon asking Fritz such a question, the interviewer would find themselves faced with a rapid inundation of their sense of sound with a long description of theological principles and invariable measures of free will. After this, he'd probably toss in that he used to visit the Jax shrine with great frequency. He reveres Jax and Silas in manner which is suspicious of their motives, but nevertheless respectful of the merits of their ideals.
Alignment: Chaotic Good.
Short Term Goals: Develop a method by which to ward of strange personal questions whilst simultaneously confounding the inquirer. He is certain that this method would work well at parties.
Long Term Goals: The expansion of the canon of mortal awareness of the entirety of existence and the positive usage of such knowledge towards the improvement of the human condition. A new pair of boots would probably be nice too.
TRIVIA:
Favourite...
Place: The nearest accessible lab facility.
Pastime: Dissection and Stamp collection.
Food: At least four bites of whatever you happen to be eating.
Drink: A nice hot cup of tea. It is calming in both taste and the knowledge that you might painfully scald any aggressor seeing to interrupt your serene beverage.
Colour: Blue, no, Red AAAAAAAGH
Animal: The Brown Rat for its willingness of capture and experimentation.
Least Favourite...
Place: Anywhere with rules prohibiting the usage of goggles or long barbed hooks.
Pastime: Knitting. Never tried it, but he's sure it'd be far too much trouble.
Food: Small pieces of heavily salted cactus spines and sewing needles.
Drink: Cold tea, which he will, nonetheless, drink, though with an air of aggravation.
Colour: EVIL PURPLE
Animal: Small dogs, as they are most easily spooked by his appearance.

BACKSTORY:
Gustav Fritz, called the Bonesaw Demon by some, and the "I've never heard of that guy" by others. His name is often misinterpreted for one of utter malice and pain for any unfortunate enough to receive an injury within a kilometer of him. Some, who have experienced his medical skill, will offer their praise, though very few will vouch for his personality. He, however, is a very caring doctor, whose manner of speech and choice of clothing often misleads people about his caring and curious personality. Of course, his extreme interest in medical experimentation and slightly skewed sense of ethics don't help his cause either.
INSPIRATIONS:
Inspired by numerous figures of questionable ethical standing from both fiction and
real life. While earlier iterations came as a sort of reformed Jack the Ripper, more
recent behaviors and character motivations can be likened to Paracelsus. My
objective was to make a Chaotic Good character from a backstory of Chaotic Evil.
My in-game name is: Agnewbody1820
