Artisan
Last updated 2026-08-05
Artisan, better known as Master Hollowell, is an event-exclusive Bangboo NPC who first appeared during the Operation: Save Bootopia event.
Profile
While Hollowell's size is significantly larger than other Bangboo, he notes this is not the case in his place of origin: Roscaelifer, though his size also gives him problems, as he got stuck in a Bangboo charging port. His technical abilities are more extensive than other Bangboo, allowing him to create special chips to augment Bangboo personalities. He is one of the few Bangboo shown to be able to speak the universal language, like Robin and Lockspring.
History
The Artisan was made in Roscaelifer, and was a fairly ordinary Bangboo before being noticed by Norma. She tweaked his logic core, causing his thinking to become more efficient, and he eventually gained enough understanding to become a scientist specializing in Bangboo construction and manufacturing. He adopted the surname Hollowell in her honor, becoming widely known as "Master Hollowell" at Marcel Bootopia. While working there, he created some of the gear that Bangboo could use, aswell as creating special toy chips that Bangboo could install, which would give them unique personalities that allowed them to become better immersed in their experience at the amusement park. He wished to show Norma his results, but she never replied back to him to discuss the matter further,
When a Hollow swallowed the park, Hollowell became stuck in a charging port, which caused his system to switch to power-save mode, preventing him from calling for help. His chips also began circulating in New Eridu, causing problems for some Bangboo who then couldn't remove the chips such as Eous, negatively affecting them in their day to day life. The Marcel Group, with help from Dialyn, contacted Phaethon for help in resolving the problems at Bootopia, which culminated in Eous, Dorothy and their gathered friends rescuing Hollowell, who profusely thanked them.
He would later come to Sixth Street to thank Phaethon in person for all their help. With the help of the Marcel Specialist he was able to get in contact with Norma, and shared the results of his work. She offered him a chance to pass an exam, and if he passes, he will join her lab as a researcher, which is now his primary objective.
