Their kufiya has been cut and resewn to a cowl, and they have tailored a vinewafer sack to approximate the slate habit of the chromaic people. A sheaf of watervine bundled in copper wire is slung on their hip, and they rub a salt-nailed thumb over a talisman of cracked circuitboard.

Argyve

Because watervine farmer and Mechanimist convert is a member of the Mechanimists faction, and thus hated by members of the Barathrumites faction, any Barathrumites will be hostile to them. This means that when, in their random wandering around Joppa, the convert wanders into the sight of Argyve (a Barathrumite), he will immediately attack and kill them. It is thus advisable to speak to Joppa's convert and get the O Glorious Shekhinah! quest early in a playthrough, before they have a chance to be murdered by Argyve.
