Lamplighter

The Lamplighter (or Plight for short, as referenced by file names) is the maintenance worker of Refuge. He is mainly tasked to replace the red phosphor found in Refuge's lights. He is the second character that Niko and the Player meet in Refuge. He is an adult with light skin, purple hair with bangs covering his right eye, a faint stubbly beard, and maroon eyes. He wears a patched-up violet coat over a cream-colored shirt, a violet newsboy cap that's just as patched-up, dark violet pants and shoes, and is often seen with his lighting stick strapped on his back. Artworks by Nightmargin occasionally show him also wearing a dark violet scarf.

His small apartment can be found in the Alley. In his apartment, Niko can find the lenses for the photo booth in a cardboard box.

In OneShot: World Machine Edition, the Lamplighter's bio reads:

"A tired-looking man who seems to subsist purely on gallons of coffee. It's unclear how long it's been since the last time he slept. Although he's not the brightest fellow, he's an incredibly hard worker and takes his job very seriously. So seriously, in fact, that he gets anxious whenever he can't perform his duties. He's responsible for keeping the lights around the city lit, as well as delivering highly concentrated phosphor for use in machines.

''A high-school dropout, he feels nervous whenever he has to be around smart people. Lately the Lamplighter has taken to reading the dictionary in what little free time he has.''"

Personality
The Lamplighter has a nervous and awkward disposition, often trailing off his sentences. He's a bit self-conscious, and startles easily. He is diligent and very dedicated to his job.

Trivia

 * Nightmargin mentioned in a stream that Plight is the "designated comic relief character", a sentiment further enforced by some of her drawings.
 * There is a scene in the Solstice update where Plight nearly swears in front of Niko out of surprise, but he says "fudge" instead, with a pause between the "f" and the rest of the word. This gag is referenced in these stream drawings made by Nightmargin.
 * He is said to be in his mid to late 20s.
 * Nightmargin stated in a stream that she is thinking of naming him Sebastian.
 * She later mentioned it again in a Reddit AMA.
