The young Prince needed a sparring partner, why in certain circles martial prowess is more then just a courtly acomplishment! the King found the perfect challenger, no man of flesh but of steel and polished brass. a Clockwork gentleman, designed by his artificers. an autonamous construct that would learn as it fought. Each thrust that landed, would set the Gentleman's head-gears whirling, each parry made too late would tighten coiled springs. Each day the duels with the Gentleman became more deadly, each day its rapier became more quick!

They say The Clockwork Gentleman rooms the land yet, seeking a challenger to match its skills. Instinct: to Duel to the death
