Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Franky's fun time
Experience Franky's show first hand!
The pole of the hammer, and or the actual head of the hammer can be extended in their own x or y radiuses up to 50 ft total (cant extend the head 50 then the shaft 50). If Franky were to pin a target through his attack he could simply let go of the hammer and have it float in whatever size he left it, pinning the target into the position he left them. Franky can also change the shape of the hammer into that of any melee weapon (i.e. club to greatsword). This can change the range or damage of his attacks. As it changes it makes a wacky cartoon noise and does a sort of bounce effect into whatever item its turning into.
Franky got his new hammer after he beat a giant spider, and was unable to reach its position without throwing his hammer, which he did not want to do. Franky has developed a bond with his hammer and will always know where it is.
