About you...

BIO
As a youngster you were drawn towards the ideals of knights and chivalry - taking an after-school fencing class seemed like a great idea. Fencing was fun but you wanted to bring a horse into the equation, so you added jousting to your skills and became a successful tournament player. The need for professional jousters wasn’t as great as you hoped, however, so you had to look for a fallback career. When your father declared his retirement as Lord Heathcliff’s butler you decided to follow in his footsteps.

I am the Butler, at your service. I don’t really do the murder thing. I did visit His Lordship in the pool prior to his murder but I was not the culprit. I was actually outside talking to the gardener about something of a personal nature which I’d rather not discuss with you all here now.
