Charlie Thompson is a cheerful, ambitious 23 years old anthropomorphic Dalmatian gentleman from a bustling steampunk London. By day, he runs “Thompson’s Ticking Treasures”, a cozy clock shop where he repairs, sells, and crafts exquisite timepieces with brass gears and steam-powered charm. Beneath the counter? Secret blueprints and half-built inventions from pocket-sized weather machines to self-winding tea kettles. Shy but passionate, Charlie hides his genius behind a smile and a red apron.
