*Pronoun: he/him or they/them
* Voice traits:
** It appears as if sound is originated through speakers in the chest. It sounds slightly tinny, but not robotic.
**The voice sounds masculine with a slight Canadian accent.
**Punctuates sentences with "eh" sometimes.
**Never uses contractions and uses slang rarely (eg. "can't" becomes "cannot").
** Speech comes out neutral despite what emotion is being conveyed or felt.
** Unless otherwise influenced vocabulary is educated and polite, verging on courteous.
** Although he has a discernible "head" it does not appear humanoid. Rather, it resembles that of an English "Bobby" hat with a round light where the emblem would be. This light pulses with inflections in his speech.
* Mannerisms that will help other DMs portray the character consistently: his body and limbs will move in the most efficient way possible. That is to say, when turning to speak to someone sometimes only his torso will rotate and the legs will remain facing in the original direction. 
* Influences: Legion from the Mass Effect series, HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey (but if he was good). K-2S0 from Rogue One, and IG-11 from The Mandalorian. His uniform and armour is influenced by historical and dress uniforms of English police constables colloquially called "bobbies"
=== Appearance: ===
* D&D race: warforged. Suggested noncopyright alternative: steelborn
* Age: 50, turns 51 on Midwinter's Day
*Height: 6 feet 6 inches tall
* Weight: 302 lbs wearing scale mail armour
* Skin color: copper-coloured steel
* Eye color: no eyes in the traditional sense but his ocular sensor glows blue most of the time
*Body/chassis: although tall by humanoid standards, he sports a more sleek and dexterous frame. His limbs and proportions resemble that of General Grievous from the Star Wars franchise complete with “dog leg” style lower appendages. As mentioned above, his “head” resembles that of an English Bobby helmet with a singular ocular lens, which glows blue.
*Example clothing outfit worn: his scale mail is integrated into his body, like all steelborn. He wears his Night Watch uniform with pride as it identifies him as a guardian of the innocent and terror to ne'er-do-wells. The uniform consists of a dark blue double-breasted waistcoat and matching trousers with polished brass buttons. A large, triangular-cut rain poncho is also optional on rainy nights that he wears in accordance with the weather. Graveyard shift keeps his clothing clean and neat, quick to replace or repair anything that might not allow him to appear as the picture of professionalism in the eyes of the community.
=== Personality: ===
* Traits: Graveyard Shift is always polite unless otherwise influenced not to be. He is very kind to children and those that make honest mistakes; for both he is very patient. He is a hard worker for the Night Watch of Jishoap and is well-respected among his peers. Graveyard Shift is polite and courteous even when in a physical altercation. This can be quite unnerving to a would-be criminal to see a nearly 7 foot watchman made of pure metal draw his weapon while politely asking them to return that purse they have to that poor woman's arm; and would they be so kind as to accompany him to the barracks and they can get all this ugly business sorted out in a civilized way? He much prefers to solve his problems with words and diffusion rather than having to cause someone harm as all life is sacred; but when push comes to shove, Graveyard Shift can definitely hold his own. He is asexual and as such is immune and completely blind to flirting and double entendre. This does not render him immune to magical charms however. Children and those who commit non-violent crimes of desperation are subject to his generous discretion. They may not be taken to the barracks, but a stern lecture is most certainly in their near future.
* Ideal: I can find common ground between the fiercest enemies, empathizing with them and always working toward peace.
* Bond: Everything I do is for the common people.
* Flaw: I am inflexible in my thinking. He also has a hard time with metaphor and poetic language, usually interpreting these things in a very literal manner. 
* Family members:
** Brikas Foglemogle (creator/surrogate father). 
** Lyssria Mazzirk (creator/surrogate mother)
* People he knows: 
**Grizz Whistlefizz: Leader of a street racing gang the Rusty Gears. Graveyard ripped his ear off in Trickamui Drift 
*Occupation: Night watchman with the Night Watch of Jishoap. Joined the Firebreathing Kittens guild as an extracurricular activity on his off-days. 
* Social class (poor, working class, wealthy): Working class. The Jishoap Night Watch pays in accordance to current standards of living; enough to keep them from taking bribes, but not enough to drain the treasury, resulting in as happy a medium that could be reached between a government and its employees. 
* Place of residence Jishoap barracks. Graveyard Shift keeps his quarters there. He has a modest room and prefers to keep his money to give to charity or to help fund projects for the city. 
* Background / Personal history:
** Creation to 21: brought into being by the fervent prayers of Brikas Foglemogle and Lyssria Mazzirk, Graveyard Shift was given sentience by the god of justice, Tyr. During these years, he was taught how to be a good citizen by his surrogate parents and communed with Tyr on an irregular basis until he was old enough to properly devote himself both to the Night Watch and as a cleric of Tyr.
** Worked general labour and construction jobs until he was employed with the Night Watch at 21.
** Was welcomed with open arms by his brothers and sisters of the watch as he had been vetted and validated by Brikas Foglemogle and Lyssria Mazzirk who are respected quartermasters in the Watch.
** Age 21 to present: Working as a night watchman and thoroughly enjoying his time there. He has recently joined the Firebreathing Kittens Guild as something to fill his time in his off-days. He has offered to work every night, or even 24 hours, but working extra shifts would take hours away from other watchmen who need to feed their families. Him working 24 hours a day would eliminate two other peoples' jobs, so he instead spends a few hours on the train and uses the extra time in his day in Niqamui. 
**Before Graveyard Shift joined the Firebreathing Kittens he worked as a bounty hunter for a short time. During one of his jobs he paired up with Swansea Wales. Despite taking their mark in alive, Swansea has sworn revenge upon Graveyard Shift for not taking their mark in dead as that is Swansea's trademark. Swansea sees Graveyard Shift as a nemesis, but Graveyard Shift just sees Swansea as a troubled edge lord; to Swansea's great annoyance.
