FetzenName: Michael Lau
Age: 20
Appearance: Calm as always, ain'tcha? He stands at about 5'10", which is a tad taller than you'd usually expect.
Personality: Michael is a generally laid-back person, at least in regards to people. He's a hard worker when it comes to getting the job done (regardless of what the 'job' is), though, and loves a good challenge when one rolls by. It's hard not to label him a bit of an ikemen, but it's not far from the truth; in general, he'll get along with (or try to get along with) people so long as they aren't complete jerks or on the opposite end of the moral spectrum. He knows, of course, that the world is a cutthroat place, but he'd rather not have to resort to killing if he can avoid it.
Beating sense into someone, though? That's a different story.
Abilities: Having studied mechanical engineering in college, Michael generally has an idea on how machines work and how everything kind of just... Works. Well, once he gets to examine it for a while, at least. He's creative enough to jerry-rig some devices (which isn;t that hard with the reliance on electricity these days), but he often makes note that messing with the wiring on stuff usually isn't the safest idea.
He also has some experience coding and messing around with electronics. Also cooking because college student with a kitchen plus hunger.
Native or Newcomer?: Newcomer
Cheat: A mana-powered tablet that lets Michael do three things:
History: Michael's life was... Fairly mundane, in all honesty. He got good grades, played video games with friends, and hung out around school after classes to chat with people. Of course, having walked along the path that his parents drew for him, college was a breath of fresh air. He generally stuck to the lifestyle he had before, but with more freedom (and money in his pockets), he could mess around more with machines. That, coupled with the resources at the university he went to, meant that Michael had the chance to try and make a bit of a name for himself. The night he rode the train was the night after a conference for other inventors. After all, the best way to get inspiration was to learn from others... Right?
Other: Has a pet parrot at home (like in the picture :D). Also has a friend who talks about this kind of stuff all the time, but it usually goes in one ear and out the other. He still remembers bits and pieces of it here and there, though.

Cheat: A mana-powered tablet that lets Michael do three things:
- Store materials (inanimate) in a pocket dimension. This does have a capacity, but will grow larger as the group progresses.
- Consume materials to create items to use. Of course, the prerequisites to create any such item must be available to him to do this sort of thing in the first place. So no, he can't conjure up an AK and a bunch of ammo right off the start. Or even anything close to a gun, for that matter.
- Access the internet. He can't communicate with any parties on the other side outside of downloading things onto the tablet, but he can do things like using Google to search for answers to questions.
