<h1> The Sketchbook</h1>
 
Wyck is rarely seen without his satchel and one of the prized posessions within the satchel is his sturdy, small, black-covered sketchbook. Part journal, part idea book and part sketchbook, the book holds all of his thoughts about almost everything.
 
<h1> The Top Hat</h1>
 
The top hat was from a friend at a Steampunk convention who -swore- that Wyck should wear it...while they were having sex. You know how hard it is to keep one of those things on your head when you're moving? Wyck doesn't wear the thing unless it's a special occasion so normally it's kept in his camper-home.
 
<h1> The Goggles</h1>
 
The goggles, also an acquisition at the Steampunk convention get a little more use as he wears them around his neck at certain times. He swears that they allow him to see better at night - and with a little forces magic - they do.

Wyck is constantly seen with his canvas satchel - whether he was on the road or now that he's in town. The satchel is large enough for a laptop but wider - as though it were designed to hold a stack of books rather than just the thin profile of a bit of electronics. It has every appearance of being a messenger bag. The satchel is decorated with a dozen or so patches from all over the country (state parks, etc.) as well as a number of odd glyphs and scrawls in black, permanent marker with the occasional white paint pen to highlight this and that.

<h3>Detailed Description </h3>
 
 
*One of his prized possessions and something that he's not often without is the hunting knife that he was given by his grandfather before he left Louisiana. The hunting knife is usually kept bound in its sheath until he needs it - and is not just for defense. He's used it for all manner of things over the years - from breaking into buildings, digging up roots and even minor surgery.<br><br>
 
 
*Since he's usually sketching something - drawing, writing or otherwise being 'scribal', he usually carries a small, 'field' journal in his satchel for all the odds and ends that creep up. His journal  holds everything from sketches of people, maps of the city, things he over hears from one person or another as well as to-do lists, phone numbers and the like. It's literally a catch-all for everything he needs. Every once and a while he might actually let people see into its covers but its difficult to interpret his shorthand.<br><br>
 
 
*His Tarot Deck  was a gift from a group of 'Street Gypsies' he met in Los Angeles. The deck, an old Rider-Waithe deck that has been around forever, is something that he keeps in case he needs to brew up a bit of witchy-poo vibe with people. They can ignore the malachite egg but when people see the Tarot they immediately start thinking that he can see the future and fly on a broom stick.<br><br>
 
 
*An old military-issue flashlight with ever-full batteries is something that he's found quite handy. Even if he could probably see at night - he would still need something to signal people or illuminate something so that everyone -else- could see it as well.<br><br>
 
 
*An old zippo that his granddad carried for years. The zippo has a hart-shape scratched into one side and looks like it has been through a fire; which it had according to his grandfather.<br><br>

His Satchel

Wyck-bag.jpg    

Wyck is constantly seen with his canvas satchel - whether he was on the road or now that he's in town. The satchel is large enough for a laptop but wider - as though it were designed to hold a stack of books rather than just the thin profile of a bit of electronics. It has every appearance of being a messenger bag. The satchel is decorated with a dozen or so patches from all over the country (state parks, etc.) as well as a number of odd glyphs and scrawls in black, permanent marker with the occasional white paint pen to highlight this and that.
As a consummate nomad, his satchel holds everything he would need for life, work or the occasional adventure. Since he's usually on foot and doesn't head back to the camper until the sun's down so that he doesn't lead anyone back to his home, he needs to keep everything that he'll need with him at all times.

Being a general vagrant, the satchel fulfills one of the cardinal rules of the street:

A Bag is not for what you carry with you - but for what you find along the way.

At any given time he could have a different set of gear within the bag though there are a number of things that generally are always maintained.

  • Kabar Hunting Knife
  • Journal
  • Malachite Egg
  • Tarot Deck
  • Military Flashlight
  • Old Zippo
  • Duct Tape
  • 550 Cord
  • Multi Tool
  • Condom
  • Sandwich Bag
  • Plastic Poncho
  • Baby Wipes
  • Glow Sticks
