Gerry Royeaux (Empath stories)

Gerry Royeaux is a human that lives in the early 21st Century that Empath has met through accidental time travel. He is the descendant of King Gerard and the current owner of Clockwork Smurf, who at that point was totally inoperable through years of neglect. It was because of this toy that Gerry Royeaux had an interest in collecting Smurfs during an age when most of the known world regards them as a cartoon creation of a Belgian artist named Peyo.
