In the RPG[]

This section contains information from the Warcraft RPG which is considered non-canon.

At war with the gnomes and dwarves, the Tinkers' Union deals with technology and the construction of gizmos, weapons and mechanical monstrosities. Director Tek'zik Riddlevox, overseer of the Undermine Tinkers' Union, runs the union.^[6]

Samuel Wrenchwright was a popular member of the "Tinker's Guild" in Ratchet.^[7]

Notes[]

• Tinkers' Union chose a day called the Engineers' Explosive Extravaganza where the Undermine's pyrotechnicians would go out into the world and share their creations with the world (for a modest fee, of course).^[8]
