Berreck Callu

Berreck Callu is a Half-elf enchanter living above his shop, "Automaton Alley," on Tinker Street. His enchantment business is struggling due to a lack of effective advertisement. He follows Jet Edwards purely out of a desire for power and intends to betray Jet as soon as possible. Jet knows this.

Berreck specializes in creating animate objects, golems, and mechanisms that rely on magically induced movement for physical power. To date the creation of which he is most proud is his combined automatic reclining armchair and work table.

Berreck is in charge of the animation and mind control of the Midwives, which forces him to work with Minerva Cava, whom he despises for her cannibalism and drug habits. He also designed the glyph-brand allowing for control of the implanted changelings. He has included in the glyph two functions only he knows of. The first is the command word to make them self-destruct, the other is the command word to transfer their control to him alone.

Physically, Berreck is short and lean, with thin, white-blond hair. He wears poorly fitting work clothes or an old threadbare suit, both of which have been animated to function as armor. He knows a wide variety of cantrips, but relies on his golems and animated tools and clothing to protect him.

Berreck's workshop, expanded and improved thanks to capital provided by Jet Edwards is filled with small, nearly harmless helper golems, as well as a few unfinished or unsold larger golems meant for other purposes. Most of these golems do not have proper power sources implanted, but receive power from small electrum strips running along the floor and walls of the workshop. These strips are connecred to alrge power source in the basement. Contact with these strips will keep a golem running for one round. Several unimplanted golem power cores can be found in his workshop.

Upon Berreck's death, all of the golems he has built will become hostile, and his helper golems will destroy all of his notes(excluding those left in the safe in his room, which the helper golems lack the ability to open.)

Berreck Callu frequently meets with Minerva Cava and Risu Capille in a butcher's shop in the northwest of the main city to work on the current Midwife. He travels in a modified Autosteed and brings several helper golems.

Berreck Callu's death will cause a rash of golem attacks and potentially induce a distrust of automotons in general.
