Traits
Valvehand. The lock-spark can turn valves, dog latches, and lock-gate handwheels. It opens ordinary sluice gates at a walking pace and never jams them.
Harmless Build. The lock-spark cannot attack. If threatened it folds flat, hisses steam, and waits to be picked up.
Actions
Assist Keeper. The lock-spark helps one creature it can see turn a wheel or hold a rope. That creature has advantage on its next Strength (Athletics) check to work a gate or valve, made within the next minute.
