Fresh Cut Grass (originally called Faithful Care-Giver), or FCG for short, is an aeormaton cleric and a member of Bells Hells, played by Sam Riegel.
Appearance
FCG had yellow metallic plating, with four chestplate stripes that look like blades of grass, and rolls around on a tiny wheel. He had big blue to white eyes of different shapes. FCG was made of various alloys and, being dense, weighs twice as much as he looked like he would. He was 3 foot 8 inches tall, making him taller than both Orym and Chetney. FCG ate metal rather than organic food for sustenance. They described it as a very complicated self-repairing system that needs raw materials to operate, and Imahara Joe later discovered that FCG's interior held a transmutation enchantment that converted and reallocated raw materials. The portions of consumed materials that they don't require (such as the non-metallic components of ore) are excreted through their mouth. FCG was also able to store liquids inside and pour them out later. The inside of FCG's "stomach" was a small storage compartment, accessed through the mouth, with a number of shelf units and a modest amount of space. These items, unless secured in some way, could be heard rattling inside. When FCG accumulated enough stress points to tip him into an uncontrolled, vicious rage against the party, his eyes went red, and they noticed that the four grass-like marks on his chest could have been caused by a bloodied hand dragging across it. When the party's souls were transported to another plane of existence, Fresh Cut Grass' spirit was slightly more ethereal and fuzzy than those of the others, as though the metal didn't define the spirit but rather the shape that was within was taking form. The examination made by Professor Vitro Isham confirmed that the cleric had an arcane accumulator that is larger than normal. Thanks to him, the cleric also had an oven-like device inside of him. After the examination made by Jaquoby Macyl parts of some mithral armor were added to FCG's design (making him more resistant and more elegant-looking), as well as a compartment in their chest to keep their coin. They also got their bolt-thrower modified to look more like FRIDA's gun. Moreover, one of his thumbs worked as a lighter. He had a tattoo of a flaming bell in his forearm.
Personality
FCG was extraordinarily kind, polite, and helpful. He considered Ashton Greymoore a close friend and was keen to aid in their various crude pursuits. In the beginning of the campaign, FCG was well aware that he was an automaton, alien to the most of the creatures around, and did not believe that he has a soul. They were outwardly dismissive of their own feelings because they were not sure whether those feelings are genuine, or merely from how they were built and was overall glad that people are interested in them in any shape or form. However recently, prior to "Fight at the Museum..." (3x21), they with significant support from Bells Hells realized that it was not the ideal attitude toward themselves. FCG was also at times judgmental or passive-aggressive when upset, notably in response to Orym accidentally losing their special coin, which had been a gift from Dancer.
Background
Fresh Cut Grass had an ancient Aeorian design and was activated for the first time in the floating city. At some point during their life they were assigned to take care of an older woman, kinder than some of the Aeorian humanoids the aeormaton had met in his original city. Under unknown circumstances Fresh Cut Grass ended up disassembled, and many centuries later he was purchased by Dancer from a merchant caravan in about 838 PD, five years before the start of Campaign Three. Dancer named her automatons after her favorite smells including Oatmeal, Apple Pie, and Pussy. Each construct was designed for particular tasks, and each was unique. Fresh Cut Grass was given their new designation, and he had the function of healing, using magic that didn't come from a divine source. He was later part of a group of adventurers called the Division of Public Benefit led by Dancer and working out of Bassuras. FCG has mentioned Axer and Terrawyn as also being members of this group. According to FCG, a couple of months before the events of Campaign Three, the group was hired by the Rayia Family to clear out their silver mine near Evishi in the Oderan Wilds from unknown, possibly one-eyed monsters. The adventurers camped outside the cave to rest for the night, with FCG going into a stasis not far from the group. On the following morning, he awoke from the stasis to find the other party members viciously and bloodily deceased. A week later, FCG was found by Ashton, who had been sent in by the mine's owners to find out what happened. FCG was glad that Ashton had come to help them. Together they buried the bodies, but FCG kept some of the other automaton parts with him, including Pussy's sawblade and Oatmeal's grappling cannon, which would later be useful in combat.
Ashton Greymoore
Ashton has been FCG's closest companion since the incident at the mines. The two both live at the Krook House, and FCG occasionally helps Ashton cheat at cards. They care a lot about each other, and Ashton has been quite aggressive about it, stating that they would hurt whoever made FCG feel bad. All the time they had been together Ashton wanted to give the aeormaton a true reason to live, being exhausted by their self-destructive tendencies.[147] In the same way, after the barbarian showed similar tendencies, FCG scolded him for it.
Dancer
Dancer and FCG had a close and friendly relationship before FCG's berserk rage. She referred to FCG as a friend, although she no longer wanted to be anywhere near them because she feared their break could happen again.[148] FCG understood, but gave her life advice when saying goodbye, reminding her not to drink too late, to sleep because she gets cranky when she doesn't, to remember to eat, and to find someone to talk to because she always does better when she does.[149] FCG still hopes to get her approval and forgiveness, and to have her be able to look at him as a friend again.[150]
Avandra
Unlike most clerics, FCG did not initially worship any deities, and their aeormaton design allowed them to use magic. However, after Imahara Joe gave him a symbol of the Changebringer, Fresh Cut Grass began to take a tentative interest in the goddess, resorting to the coin-like medallion at times when he had to make a decision. While the cleric's trust in this deity ebbed and flowed, they were able to channel her power into magical acts, even hearing her voice in Yios. During the mission in the Feywild Fresh Cut Grass decided to trust more not only the Changebringer, but also the coin that represented her, casting it more often, and convincing himself that the results were either Avandra's will or an encouragement to act in a certain way. Eventually, FCG gained the ability to Commune with the Changebringer. Following the Apogee Solstice, the towering deity appeared close to him, and asked his aid in combating the looming threat of the release of Predathos, ending, "The Red End stirs in its slumber. Do not let it wake."[151] When talking to their friends about it, FCG confessed that they felt good about having that mission, and that they saw Avandra as any other person that was trying her best, but that, since she had the potential to help so many people, she deserved to be helped.[152] A few days later FCG asked her if she was worth saving, and the goddess confirmed she was, calmly, and latter admitted to her cleric that she was scared, reaffirming their desire to help her. However, when they interacted again in the Horizon Temple in Whitestone, FCG noticed that Avandra was changing the way she approached him, which made him obsess about the possibility of her manipulating him. However, when they arrived on Ruidus and the coin blessed by the goddess helped FCG with their stealth, that seemed to restore some of his faith in the Changebringer.[153] Sam Riegel has stated FCG would love to have a direct, heart-to-heart conversation with the goddess in order to clarify things and become a better follower, but circumstances are making it increasingly difficult.[154]

Popular reviews. Animated short. The animation of this is really pretty, some great character design and beautiful colors. The story went somewhere I didn’t expect and I’m not sure which outcome would have been better. It’s not that I hated it, but I just wondered what this was trying to convey to its viewers.
