Wild sandy blonde/brown hair pulled into a maze of tails and braids that frame a perpetually sunny, smiling, cherubic and sun darkened face...though the hair is often pinned down under a leather cap that has flaps down the sides that cover her ears, and a pair of goggles that perch high on her forehead when not in use. Her clothes are simple...a thin white sleeveless shirt and pair of shorts that go down to her somewhat knobby knees, but are quite loose fitting and covered in pockets. It's what goes OVER the clothes. First, a loose top of black mesh. Over that are belts. Belts over her shoulders, around her midriff, around her legs, crisscrossing her chest. On the belts are...things. Strange doohickies made of brass and bronze, sporting tiny tubes and nozzles and other, less recognizable protuberances. Little vials of oddly colored liquids. Tiny rolls of parchment and paper. Mysterious, and ominous somehow, orbs of blown glass with sparks of light deep inside. Somewhere in the chaos there's a little teddy bear affixed to her.[/sblock]"Look there, ahead!" Deezy squeaks to her stolid companion. "Those rotten bandits are attacking that caravan! We gotta do something!"She twists around, a little unstable in her saddle, and calls, "BILLY!"From behind a loud thumping can be heard as the huge mechanical...thing...she calls Billy lopes to catch up with them. A monstrous tower of riveted bronze armor plates over a brass and copper superstructure of struts, hissing tubes and junctures, and clacking, grinding clockwork gears, Billy stands about nine feet tall and about half that wide at his shoulders. His massive chest slopes down to a peculiarly narrow waist, then flares out again into a pair of squat, heavily built legs. His arms are actually even more heavily built, long and thick and tipped with three-fingered hands with retracting scythelike claws and opposable thumbs. Billy's 'head' is squat and low, making him seem disconcertingly decapitated.Deezy points at the caravan and says, "Go attack whatever I shoot!" as she produces the ridiculously complicated-looking crossbow she carries from its resting place behind her shoulders.She sights down its length and fires off a bolt! The crossbow then emits a puff of steam and a whistle as it ratchets itself back to firing position and loads another bolt on its own. She badly overestimates the range though, and the bolt whistles over her target's head to stick in the ground."Aw...CLUMBFUTTS!" Deezy swears horribly at her shot, as Billy lopes forward towards the fray.[sblock=Combat actions] Sigh...another hosing from Invis Castle.Crossbow to hit: 12 (natural 1)Damage: Irrelevant<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1658546/" target="_blank">http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1658546/</a>Billy Action: Double move 60' towards caravan[/sblock]</blockquote>
