Peyton Fenwick
Description

Payton Fenwick is an older (early 50s) male human smuggler/engineer.
He is mostly bald, with a shock of stark white hair around the back of his head which joins a thin bushy moustache. He wears a sleeveless shirt, an engineers apron and is never without his goggles, being quite blind without them.
Role and Affiliations
Leif is the engineer of The Doubtless Drake, a member of the Arrodan organised crime syndicate, and a smuggler.
- Ship: The Doubtless Drake, a Shoal-class trade barge
- Faction : The Arrodan Syndicate
Personality and Motivations
Payton is an untidy and rough engineer, always looking for the loophole - a way to get the job done with the minimum of effort and materials.
Payton is motivated by completing repairs with materials that others would consider unusual (string, carpet glue, etc).
Possessions and Gear
- A dirty and oils stained set of clothing, overalls, sleeveless shirts, welding gloves and the likes.
- A set of prescription welding goggles.
- A hefty looking wrench, which makes a serviceable weapon.
- A small light crossbow, held together with string and hope, with a sizable quiver of bolts.
- A depressingly empty coin purse.
Hands of Fate
Signs and portents are the life-blood of Sordane. Like all beings adrift on the floating sphere, Payton is subject to the forces of destiny.
Payton's Divine Tarot is "The Magician" - his destiny represents a life of resourcefulness, ingenuity, and efficiency.
Payton's true role in the Hands of Fate is unknown.
Divine Tarot : The Magician
Mastery of Tools: The Magician is a master of turning ordinary resources into something extraordinary, just as Payton might use string, carpet glue, and other unconventional materials to get the job done. It reflects the ability to innovate and think outside the box to solve problems.
Efficiency and Shortcuts: The Magician knows how to manipulate and harness the tools at their disposal in the most effective way possible, often finding shortcuts or clever workarounds to achieve success. Payton’s motivation to complete repairs with minimal effort aligns with this aspect of The Magician’s personality.
