NICKNAMES Theo Starman (Evren) Watchman (Enfield) Chaos (Cassius)

> At first glance an unassuming, portly figure of a man with soft and doughy features; his hair a wavy-curly mop of thinning dirty golden blonde, his eyes hidden behind a pair of oversize smokey lenses. What refined, but practical attire he wears is suggestive of someone both traveler and scholar (save for a curious lack of shoes), yet the instruments oft in hand and the animated spring in his step hint at an equal inclination towards merriment and adventure. As does the fact his clothing rarely ever stays the same color or pattern for too long, tones and prints changing at a wizardly whim. It is far less frequently his expression ever changes, a questionable smile usually fixed in place.

It's severely likely at least one of his bags are of unnatural nature and of 'holding', if not all of them and his damn pockets too. It's also likely he owns a great deal hidden somewhere out there in the multiverse, how much on his person at any given point indeterminable. This man is always pulling strange items out of Hammer Space.

• Item: Lute (and other instruments)
  Description: A collection of instruments pulled out of seemingly nowhere when the whim strikes. Includes a lute, a pipa, a five course guitarra battente, and a panflute (among others). These items are suspicious in that they seem to actively shift in detail, from construct and number of strings to sometimes sounding suspiciously 'wrong' (aka as though being electrified by magic or resembling more modern constructs entirely). It is highly plausible these instruments are in fact all one in the same, especially given their shared design details.
  
  ...

  They sometimes take the form of an elaborate walking stick or even a fountain pen; this lute and the shapes it takes are essentially like a wand as far as channeling his power, but those with a keen sensory capacity will recognize them as an extension of the man and literally part of his body.
  
  
• Item: Tools of Trade
  Description: There is at least one book on his person in a holster at any given time along with spare scrolls and other bits of parchment, much of it typically blank and to be filled. Theo also tends to carry a magnifying stone and many various little instruments, but curiously never ink nor quill.
  
  
• Item: Variable Currency
  Description: When arriving on a world he generally comes prepared with a bag of gems and metal pieces from all over the multiverse, often uncut and unstamped to prevent too much crossworld interference.
  
  
• ???: Probably An Entire Room's Worth Of Random Junk
  Description: There have been many an individual to experience this man pulling an assortment of various objects out of his pockets and bags, ranging from the expected practicalities (books, clothing, tools) to holiday decorations, animated pieces of furniture, and a great deal of various unidentifiable junk collected from all over the universe. It always takes him a while to find anything, items apparently fickle in response to his summons and sending along things of similar size or materials the first few tries.
