This one's for you, Edgar!

A particularly fierce looking clank controlled by Castle Heterodyne that gleefully rings the Doom Bell in Mechanicsburg. The first time we see it in action is when it announces the official ascension of Agatha as the new Heterodyne. At least, once the treasure-seeking Baron Oublenmach brings it the bell's striking hammer. All hell breaks loose shortly thereafter—which is why the Ringer is so gleeful. The Castle can speak through the figure as well, and has a conversation with Franz the dragon post-ringing.

It also appears in A Mechanicsburg Solstice Story, again performing its function as Agatha unwittingly "wins" another Heterodyne Solstice Hunt.

According to Agatha H. and the Siege of Mechanicsburg, the ringer is named Octavo.
