Copper Iris Timekeepers — Anthro Fashion Character Sheet
Copper Iris Timekeepers receive complaints that the town clocks lose one minute every day. Meetings begin awkwardly, kettles boil before their timers ring, and the noon chime grows increasingly uncertain. A retired clockmaker tells three young keepers that the missing minutes are not being stolen. They are being returned.

The story of Copper Iris Timekeepers
A fictional story inspired by the artwork.
Fenn, a bat-eared fox, studies the mechanisms. Dorsa, a tortoise, compares the written records. Sepia, a cuttlefish, listens to the chimes from different streets. Their pleated coats and small metallic ornaments echo the workings they know so well, but the old maker's explanation sounds more like poetry than engineering.
In the earliest ledger, Dorsa discovers a correction added during a hurried rebuilding. The town's clocks had been set ahead to conceal a delayed ceremony, then adjusted repeatedly to agree with one another. A buried regulator has begun reversing those changes according to its original instructions.
The keepers isolate the regulator and establish a shared reference before resetting the clocks. Fenn documents every adjustment, while Sepia helps announce the temporary disruption. They invite the retired maker to explain why nobody recorded the original decision clearly enough for later generations.
The next noon chime arrives when expected. The keepers preserve the old regulator in a labeled case rather than presenting it as a magical thief. Beneath it, Dorsa places a copy of the incomplete ledger and the careful record that finally made the repair possible.
