SO, i'm kind of considering having Simon be some kind of merchant or something for his backstory?? gotta disguise that superfluous oxygen tank somehow. Ok look I don't know he's probably just gonna tie a tarp around it and bundle up real good.

He's gonna be inclined to go for the commoner's district first, talking to the merchant lady and the couple and also searching the area like the dickens and hoping to god he finds some kind of mask. He'll definitely be taking the role of trying to get civilians out of danger in the ambush but he doesn't know how to fight so. Depending on how much of a risk-taker you've got, Simon's aware that the noble district is probably where the goods are at in terms of political information but really isn't expecting that to pan out (in his defense, you sort of have to look at him at the right angle to see the glowy robot eyes clearly. ITS FINE.) You can't be sure he's not a lady as long as he stays quiet but he wouldn't necessarily be super enthusiastic about that idea....

Maybe you need a spooky sentinel robot hobo in your party in one of these or any other scenario and you didn't even know it. Imagine. If you have any other ideas please do drop me a line at honchkrow!!
