Bibbins Tinkerspark Physical Description: Bibbins Tinkerspark is a sprightly gnome with a round face and a tuft of wild, curly hair that seems to have a life of its own. His bright green eyes twinkle with curiosity and mischief, and his cheeks are perpetually flushed with excitement. He wears a well-tailored vest adorned with pockets, each one filled with various tools and trinkets, and a pair of spectacles that magnify his eyes, giving him an endearing, scholarly appearance. A small, intricately carved wooden staff, topped with a glowing crystal, leans against the desk, a remnant of his studies at Waterdeep.
