History

Sprockey was born in a small hut, west of Kharonos, to Jepetto and Lilly Mekkatinker, whom were both professional Engineers. Sprockey was raised to be an inventor, always watching his father drawing plans up for inventions, and explaining how some of his contraptions worked to young Sprockey. Sprockey was intrigued by his fathers ability to invent, and he wanted to grow up to be the next Jepetto Mekkatinker.

By the age of 20, Sprockey had made little inventions, such as a wrench made of wood, and a few gears to run a little wind-up toy. His father Jepetto was still drawing inventions, and his mother was taking care of him the best she could on the small income they got from Jepetto's engineering skills.

At the age of 30, he left the village, bound for Ironforge. With his engineering skills at apprentice level, he was hoping to find an expert engineer to learn from. It turns out it wasn't so simple, and to make a living, he would have to start adventuring. Sprockey went to the military ward, and started training to become a warrior. His mentor was the gnomish warrior, Bilban Tosslespanner. At the age of 37, he was a steady warrior, specializing in combat with axes.

At the young age of 42, he went out and enlisted in the Stormpike army. He was used in a small, ground assault troop. By year 2 of service in the army, he had become a seasoned defender, stationed in Dun Baldar to defend the bunkers. Late at night, the Frostwolf launched a large assault on Dun Baldar. Sprockey almost lost his life in the battle, but Dun Baldar had been defended. He was sent home with a badge of honor, having almost lost his right arm.

Sprockey has now made a full recovery, and is going around Azeroth adventuring for his earnings, and learning about the whole world, just as he's always dreamed of doing.
