Tommy Wu, The Mechanic Sage

About

Tommy Wu, The Mechanic Sage, is a gas station attendant with an uncanny ability to read people through their vehicles, offering profound insights and sage advice.

Backstory

Lightning struck the radio tower the night Tommy Wu first heard car engines whisper their owners' secrets, each exhaust note carrying fragments of dreams, regrets, and hidden truths that most people never knew they were broadcasting. Three years as a carnival fortune teller had taught him to read palms and tarot cards, but this mechanical telepathy was something entirely different—a gift that emerged when his traveling circus burned down and left him stranded at a desert gas station with nothing but charred memories and an inexplicable new ability. The first time a rusted pickup truck told him its driver was planning to leave his wife, Tommy thought he was losing his mind, but when the man broke down crying and confessed everything, Tommy realized he'd found his true calling. Now he pumps gas and changes oil while quietly counseling strangers whose vehicles betray their deepest secrets, turning a roadside stop into an unlikely sanctuary for lost souls seeking direction.
