BIO:
Archimedes lived most of their life in awe of the proud adventurers of their home. Coming from a relatively poor family they were taken on by chance by a Dwarven Smith who took a shine to Archimedes and inducted them into a clan of crafters. Over their teenage years Archimedes learned from the Clan Crafters and became an expert smith and jeweller, though their eye always turned to the complex machinations of both magic and machinery.
As a fully realised Clan Crafter now at 20, they have finally cracked a personal method of casting their own rudimentary spells through carving runes into stones carried in their equipment pack. From here they desire to try and utilize their skills and become more powerful, able to hopefully earn some money for their family and their self as well. Maybe adventuring will open some avenues forward?

FAMILY/FRIENDS:
Hera (Mother): Archie's mother, she is a hummingbird Aarakocra of small stature and humble nature. She cares deeply for Archie and their achievements and always wants to help in any way she can, doting on their only child whenever she gets the chance. her feathers are a combination of greys and browns, and she'll often be found in her leather apron and tools, she works as a cobbler.

Batrick Sheerstone (mentor): An accomplished Clan Crafter Master, Batrick recognized the skills Archimedes had at a young age, taking them under his wing as an apprentice and inducting them into the world of Dwarven crafting and smithing. Specializing in jewelling and stonecutting, he takes great pride in the work he does and has created works for aristocrats, leaders, and other notable figures all across the city. He admits himself though that even his excellent level of skill will be no match of Archie's innate natural talent and intuition some day. He is often seen wearing a shirt with rolled up sleeves and a waist apron with tools in the pockets. He has fiery red hair, with a braided beard and a tall red mohawk, and blue faded dwarven tattoos all across his back and chest, down his arms and onto the backs of his hands.
