Known throughout the Ironchaff Plain region simply as Gremlins, these legend refers to small humanoid creatures that vary in height from knee high to waist high in regards to a regular human. Known to wear tattered and mix-matched clothes, these creatures have a natural affinity for machines and their inner workings. Truly netural creatures, they seem to not bother or attack anyone unless directly attacked themselves. Whether you want their tinkerings or not, once you spot a Gremlin, rest assured that there are more of them just out of site, probably instead any nearby machines.
Notoriously hard to get rid of, these creatures make “improvements” to the machines they find. While these improvements usually make the machine more reliable and smoother to operate, sometimes these improvements alter the purpose of the machine, making the intended functions no longer work. As an added bonus, if a machine breaks after being improved by Gremlins, it is almost impossible for a non-Gremlin to fix.
