Personality

She speaks at a frantic clip, often interrupting her own sentences to comment on the 'poorly timed' chirping of a nearby cricket. She has a habit of checking her three different pocket watches simultaneously when she's nervous.

Ideal

Precision. 'The cosmos is just a giant clock; if we find the right gear, we can make it chime for everyone.'

Bond

Her 'Living Star-Map,' a weathered leather scroll that she believes contains the location of the god who told her that first, life-changing joke.

Flaw

She cannot resist 'tinkering' with things that aren't broken, including people's destinies and high-level magical seals.

Backstory

Fidget was once the finest clockmaker in the district, a woman who believed that if you could measure a thing, you could master it. That philosophy shattered the night a fragment of a dying star crashed through her workshop roof. While others fled the 'fallen curse,' Fidget approached it with a set of jeweler's loupes and a brass hammer, determined to 'fix' the celestial debris. When she touched the singing metal, the universe didn't just speak to her—it told her a joke. The resulting explosion of divine radiance didn't kill her; it simply recalibrated her soul to the frequency of the heavens.

Now, Fidget lives in a state of 'organized divinity.' She views the gods not as distant masters, but as eccentric, slightly overbearing relatives who keep leaving their toys (miracles) in her pockets. She wanders from town to town, repairing broken watches for copper and performing genuine resurrections for the price of a good story. She is currently obsessed with finding a specific, shy constellation she saw in a dream—a cluster of stars that whispered a riddle about a tavern at the end of time. She is convinced that if she can find the punchline, she’ll finally understand why the universe ticks the way it does.

Abilities & Actions

The Celestial Mainspring (1/Day)

As a reaction when a creature within 30 feet fails an attack roll or ability check, Fidget can 're-wind' their immediate timeline. The creature rerolls the die and must use the new roll. If the new roll succeeds, a faint sound of a ticking clock echoes in the air.

Spark-Sigh Radiance

When Fidget casts a spell of 1st level or higher that restores hit points, she can spend 1 Sorcery Point to cause the target to glow with soft starlight. The target gains temporary hit points equal to Fidget's Charisma modifier + the spell's level.

Living Star-Map (Signature Item)

Fidget carries a leather map where the ink moves in real-time. She can use an action to consult the map, granting her the benefits of the *Guidance* cantrip and the *Augury* spell without consuming components. She interprets the results as 'celestial weather reports.'

Metamagic: Twinned & Empowered

Fidget has 8 Sorcery Points. She can spend points to target a second creature with a single-target spell or reroll a number of damage/healing dice equal to her Charisma modifier (5).

DM Notes

Fidget should be played with high energy and a touch of 'brilliant madness.' She treats high-ranking clerics like apprentices who haven't learned to read a sundial. Sample dialogue: 'Oh, don't mind the glowing hands, dear, it’s just a bit of solar leakage. Now, tell me, does this watch lose three seconds a day, or is the planet just spinning faster to get away from your cooking?' She will always help a party if they have an interesting mechanical device or a celestial rumor.
