Fresh Cut Grass

Fresh Cut Grass, or F.C.G. for short, is a robotic cleric and a member of the Campaign Three adventuring party. F.C.G. is played by Sam Riegel.

Appearance
FCG has yellow metallic plating, with four chestplate stripes that look like blades of grass. He has big blue eyes of different shapes.

FCG eats metal rather than organic food for sustenance. They described it as a very complicated self-repairing system that their creator Dancer designed for them that needs raw materials to operate. The portions of consumed materials that they don't require (such as the non-metallic components of ore) are excreted through their mouth.

Personality
FCG is extraordinarily kind, polite, and helpful. He considers Ashton Greymoore a close friend and is keen to aid in their various crude pursuits. FCG is well aware that he is an automaton and does not believe that he has a soul.

Background
Fresh Cut Grass was part of a group of adventurers working out of Bassuras/Bosarus. A couple of months ago, they were hired to clear out a silver mine from unknown monsters. The adventurers camped outside the cave to rest for the night, with FCG going into a stasis not far from the group. On the following morning, he awoke from the stasis to find the other party members deceased.

FCG met Ashton when the latter was sent in on a job to find what happened in the mines. Ashton discovered FCG, who was glad that Ashton had come to help them. Together they buried the bodies, but FCG kept some of the other automaton parts with him, including the sawblade used in combat.

Chapter 20
FCG had accompanied Ashton to the Spire by Fire Inn on a search for employment when a magical disturbance nearby created several animated objects that threatened to attack innocents. To fight the constructs, FCG and Ashton spontaneously coordinated with two other groups: Imogen Temult and Laudna; and Dorian Storm, Fearne Calloway, and Orym. The seven individuals' effectiveness as a team impressed Bertrand Bell, who promised to make introductions to high-placed people in the city to help them with their various goals, and took them to see Lord Ariks Eshteross.

Ashton Greymoore
Ashton has been FCG's closest companion since the incident at the mines. The two both live at Krook House, and FCG occasionally helps Ashton cheat at cards.
