Tin Woodman
Heartless Oz traveler
The Tin Woodman is a character from L.
Frank Baum's *The Wonderful Wizard of Oz* (1900), a mechanical man made entirely of tin who seeks a heart from the Wizard.
He embodies the paradox of someone who believes himself heartless yet acts with great compassion and tenderness.
The character appears in adaptations as the Tin Man: If I only had a heart.
