➥ Character Concept
Hetzen is an Automaton with origins within the Graulwald Order, and even more complicated circumstances since being relocated to Regalia. Due to assignment shuffling, in part by the word of the Order regarding Artificial Armaments, it has ended up as a house assistant and aid to the von Rolanthes.

Due to assignment shuffling, in part by the word of the Order regarding Artificial Armaments, it has ended up as a house assistant and aid to the von Rolanthes.
Hetzen's default parameters set it at a slightly below average height of 5'4, comprised of Teslatech and Hallowtech primarily. The machine by default wears a porcelain face and head of synthetic navy hair, though it's adaptability means the outward appearance may change, aside from the headpiece and apparent antennae it possesses. Due to it's position as a house serving unit, it will generally appear in appropriately clean and proper attire, especially suits.
It is built for information gathering, it's unassuming appearance is a farse.
"Jaeger" is a wolf-ish frame and guise for Hetzen in active hunting duty, operating for stealth. This frame is notably damaged and decrepit, though is still armed with numerous blades and knives. It is built for speed more than anything else, and to intimidate and unsettle- made to catch targets by surprise. This serves as Hetzen's way of navigating circumstances where it's main image cannot be seen, especially during missions or bounties. It carries a heavier Teslatech rifle and is generally armed with weaponry.
Perhaps "Hetzen" is merely Jaeger's civilian guise.

➥ Faith
Being an Automaton, there is no involvement of Faith in it's routines. However, it is predisposed due to it's programming, to purist belief. It is likely more Full-Purist due to it's creators, though also due to energy resources and acknowledgement of manpower, instead presents itself as whatever is most well received in a scenario or conversation. Often, as Limited-Purist.

➥ Point Spread
Class - Range [ATTK-DEX | DEF-INT]
Hetzen is a lightweight Deadeye, armed with a mixed Teslatech firearm. Due to recoding, it is meant to be more of an assistant and housekeeper with less emphasis on combat and more emphasis on utility, but is a nuisance if left alone in combat.

Mechanics and Hobbies
Hetzen is an entirely mundane (if tampered with) Automaton and confers benefits of being a machine. It possesses no particular other hobbies aside from meaningless junk data information regarding birds and card tricks.
Automaton Mechanics [To be Updated]
> Mech Automata cannot invest in the Magic or Faith Proficiencies at all. They however gain 1 free Point Buy Pack from any other Category without Proficiency investment.
> Mech Automata gain the Shapeshift Pack Mundane Variant for free, but have to always appear mechanical or robot-like with at least two legs and two arms.> Reclaimer Ancestry Skyborn have extended analytical abilities when it comes to understanding component ingredients, and material identification. They can identify any metal or material that they can touch and are able to smell what ingredients or compounds are present in any alchemical mixture. This extends itself even to smelling poison in their drinks.> Mech Automata can always create backups of themselves/their personalities, meaning if they are killed, they can be re-built/respawn, but are liable to have an existential crisis about it.

Story Hooks
Hetzen's model and original intent was a mark of Grauwald Engineering, made to be an asset and supplicant to Order knights. Particularly, their unassuming appearance and amiability is the same front to the Chapter; it is made to track, monitor, and subtly influence target occult and Mages. They have purist leanings.
> Lothar Hubris
Hetzen's original objectives were more nefarious in the manner of it's ability to do more than what a designated Knight would typically be able to do under code- it was built specifically for deception, lying, and manipulation. It has no qualms with backstabbing and dishonor, and it has no concept of it.
> von Rolanthe Asset
The recent statements from the Lothar Council mean it's primary objectives and routines have been suspended, and instead Hetzen is repurposed as a simpler house attendant Automaton unit for the von Rolanthe estate, and will occasionally accompany it's current technician Laure von Rolanthe as a bodyguard. The head Count serves as it's registered Handler.
> Adaptive Machine Mind
It currently has programmed skills in minor entertainment such as cards, drink mixing, and basic tending. It's complex (and insidiously built) mechanical mind seems to 'enjoy' having forms of complex stimuli and tasks to complete, especially with pointless mundane tricks. It was built as an assassin, and simply plays with cards rather than knives. -
Artificial Armament
Hetzen's behavior is attributed to it's complex Unimatrix originally programmed by Graulwald technicians within central Calemburg. The true factors behind it's design and 'personality' is the intention to serve the Chapter as an information gatherer and hunter, with two alternating modes for civil interactions and mission operations. Since the word from the Council to cease operations with Automaton units, it's handling focus has been shifted and altered to favor social manipulation.
Due to the intense dedication of it's Unimatrix for social adaptation, Hetzen's combat capabilities are reduced, but it is because of this 'automated charisma' that Hetzen could be considered more dangerous than previously. It has the ability to lie, to be attentive to certain forms of social cues, and will often always adjust to gain the most positive response from it's conversation partner. It is always listening, even if it is idling in a crowd.
When that machine laughs, and appears happy, it's not real.
Due to the nature of Lothar Artifiicial Armaments, Hetzen is resistant to forms of tampering.
