Nigel Tick-Tock

The room itself is rather cozy, and not what anyone would call terribly sexy - two padded armchairs are arranged near a fireplace, the fire inside unlit at the moment. It is the very image of the typical Victorian parlor, with fussy end tables, brocade and velvet, fancy wallpaper, and all. History books grace several book shelves. And then there are the clocks.

So many clocks.

It seems most available bits of space on the wall and mantle are filled with them, of all sorts - sparse, elegant ones, odd ones, ornate masterpieces of carving in miniature. They are carefully arranged to fit the space, but there's no hiding the eclectic nature. There are fancy mantle clocks, classic cuckoos, and ornate brass ones. There's a clock that shows the phases of the moon in inlaid silver, made of a lovely pale wood and carved with gracefully leaping wolves. There's another, made of interlocking gears that seem to climb upwards. Here is a replica of the Zodiac Clock Tower from Venice. And here a clock with two tiny wooden dancers, poised to glide in a circle when the hour strikes. And so many more ...

Colonel Tick-Tock, even without his Trick Clock, has the ability to travel backwards and forwards in time for short periods - a few minutes at most. But even a few minutes can make an enormous difference in some interactions and certainly in a conflict. He doesn't use this power all that often, but he certainly will if he feels he's in a situation he can't solve otherwise, which could make for some confusing roleplay, or what could appear to be pretty serious god-modding.

So! If you would prefer Tick-Tock not to use this power with your character, or you would like to place some restrictions on it, please comment here. There are always in-character reasons I can come up with why he might not, but it's also nice for me to know in advance so I don't get him into the kind of situation with your character where it might come up.

Likewise, if you have any questions about how his time powers work, feel free to put them here, too! His canon is pretty vague, but I've got some ideas of my own for the purposes of the game.
