Federick Bering, Young Groom (Anil Kelso), age 19 You are Federick Bering, son of Jackson Bering. You have a passion for working in the Factory that few else have. Your father certainly doesn't share your enthusiasm. You know he used to be a blacksmith before the Emperor, but he doesn't seem to care about his work now. You are quite different from him. Every second you work in that factory, your mind is alight with the pure world of theoretical mechanics, bolts, lathes, and raw materials. You think in terms of tolerances and resiliency.
