"Wire" (real name Finlay Clarke) is the chief armourer, tinkerer, inventor and R&D for The Dragon's Court. A fairly reclusive human individual, his services were bought by The Dragon's Court alongside the collapse of Dyffros Demolitions, where he held a similar role.
Appearance
During his time at Dyffros Demolitions he made ingenious use of recycled and scavenged equipment to find cheaper ways to produce effective weaponry, or in some cases modifying existing equipment to become even more lethal. If someone in Urushee has a custom weapon, there's a good chance that it was designed in part by Wire, or takes inspiration from his designs.
His expertise would ultimately prove beneficial to his survival, as he was bought out from under Dyffros just a few hours before The Night Of Cleansing Fire took place, sparing him from the bloodshed and allowing him to continue his work. Whether or not he accepted the deal because he had any actual interest in joining the Court, or if it was simply one made at gunpoint, is up to debate - Yet the quality of his handiwork remains unchanged.
Work
An example of Wire's work that I have been able to examine up close is a rechambered submachine gun, utilized by Marshall, the owner and proprietor of Bodies4Hire, a mercenary outfit in Srenluna. While Marshall had no affiliation to Dyffros or The Dragon's Court, his extensive connections as part of the business put him in a unique position to make such a request. The weapon in question was a Kompakt Disperser Submachine Gun, rechambered from its traditional 9x19mm ammunition to 10x25mm. The craftsmanship in the modifications was outstanding - If the observer was not familiar with the class of weapon, it would have been hard to notice the changes, as there was little in the way of a visual "tell" that his gun had been changed.
