Toolsmith Beth


Shopkeeper's lore: A former captain of a research ship who crash landed near West station. Her species is owl-like in nature, so she is up most of the day. She takes on many of the important tasks in Touchdown because she oddly enjoys paperwork and the company of Berbert.

Axesmith Miriam


Shopkeeper's lore: Found frozen in a crystal unearthed by the gravitational anomalies of Touchdown, Miriam seems to have crashed down long ago after the destruction of her world. She is a librarian by trade but a skilled fighter. Pushed into the role of town Axesmith by Berbert. She keeps to herself, but always willing to gather knowledge.

Backstory
Town's mascot: Berbert the interdimensional bee

Town's lore: The city was founded when Mayor Beatrice Azalea crash landed on this planet and was severed from the Hivemind. The remains of her escape pod (lovingly called 'The Meteor') are what give form to our lands. Not long after landing, the escape pod began leaking its latent magic, combining with the ambient magic of the area and creating gravitational anomalies. Not long after that, other ships and meteors began raining down one by one, bringing new survivors and citizens- almost like they were being led here by something. We are not sure what brings us all to this land, but one thing is for certain; every survivor's sensor reads this place as incredibly hostile. Thankfully, with the hard work of the mayor and her fellow survivors and townsfolk, a crash landing is not the end but a new beginning.

The unique mixture of energy seems to pull all sorts of creatures from all sorts of places. Some from space, some from different periods of time. Some even being animals, gaining sentience by proximity. This phenomenon also seems to have existed far before touchdown was founded- like it was property of the land itself. We call this effect The Calling. Exemplified most by the crystals in the town, the land emits a low constant frequency. Researchers swear something or someone is trying to communicate. It is said if you hold a crystal close to your chest you can hear a faint whisper. It almost sounds like it is calling you closer.
