Professor Sieglinda Sachenmacher
Dwarfish. She's about 4 feet tall, dwarfishly stout, but has deceptively frail-looking hands which are in fact quite strong. She keeps her black hair and beard trimmed short as a matter of practical safety - no good getting pulled into machinery.
She wears thick cloth pants and long-sleeved shirt, iron-toed safety boots, “steampunk”-looking safety goggles, a leather cap with flaps that can be pulled down to cover her hears, fingerless leather gloves, and a sturdy leather apron.
Born and raised in Dunkelangsam to a family well known for its mechanical aptitude, she's an obsessive researcher and experimenter and relocated to Salamander to expand he knowledge. Her workshop made a living for her and her work-products brought enough recognition that the idea of having her become faculty through the College of Natural Philosophy and the Useful Arts was put forth.
Although not technically “in charge”, she is the most important person of the small Artificer's Guild.
