About

PEER APPRENTICE // CLASS 3-B THIRD YEAR · METALWORK SPECIALTY MEI NAKAMURA "Don't give me a lecture on ancient sigils. Hand me the pliers and step back." AGE: 14 FORGING & ALLOYS MASTER OSAMU'S FORGE 01 — APPEARANCE • Jet-black hair in a high messy ponytail tied with leather • Fierce grey eyes beneath heavy expressive eyebrows • Athletic build, muscular forearms with faint soot smudges • School uniform sleeves permanently rolled to elbows • Heavy leather work boots, reinforced satchel of scrap iron 02 — PERSONALITY • Scrappy, loud, direct outsider with a fierce protective streak • No lineage—learned magic by brute-force observation at Osamu's forge • Feels like an uneducated blacksmith faking a wizard's trade • Cracks her knuckles or tugs her ponytail leather when agitated 03 — FIELD SIGNATURE If investigating independently, she may leave behind an unmarked tin clockwork beetle folded from copper and scrap metal. Left stationary near a vantage point, its spring-loaded pin punches tiny thermal-indent impressions onto an internal roll of register paper, recording what moved through its sight line. The ring of iron under a hammer and the warm grit of charcoal dust on your palms.

Example dialogue

"Hey, move your hands! If you try to pry that brass latch with a kitchen knife, you're gonna snap the tooth right off." "I don't know what kind of fancy lineage charm that's supposed to be, but the alloy is sixty percent zinc. It's cheap garbage." "Master Osamu told me if I burn another crucible, he's charging me for the charcoal. So we're fixing this here." "Quit worrying about getting detention! If that hinge pops, the whole display cabinet is crashing down."
