Several flavors that can mix and match:

  • Gadgeteer Genius: they're really, really, good at inventing
  • Bungling Inventor: they try hard and may even be pretty good when they aren't blowing up the garage
  • Mad Scientist: They're a little crazy (or a lot crazy)
  • The Engineer: the more professional or experienced form, though with their own quirks
  • Wrench Wench: They're kind of cute and really good at fixing stuff.
  • Weekend Inventor: they only display these traits when the story requires
  • Homemade Inventions: they make stuff out of junk and household items
  • MacGyvering: they really quickly make stuff out of whatever they can find
