Edgar Trigg
- Ventrue -x- Leeds -x- Knights of the World Tree
Nickname: Skizzy
Ventrue enforcer from Leeds, now relocated to London.
Appearance and Demeanor: Edgar Trig looks every bit the classic English gangster. He seems to be made from shapeless blobs piled upon one another and connected with a bit too much muscle and sinew. His lumpy face is accentuated by a creased bald head and a cartoonishly broken nose that separates a pair of too-small eyes. His tastes tend toward the colorful and flamboyant, hiding his scars and ugliness behind pimp hats and striped suits. He usually wears a large flower in his lapel.
All this bad taste serves to accentuate the fact that Skizzy is a man who is perfectly comfortable with hurting people, and being hurt in the process. He often cracks his knuckles and speaks with an exaggerated Limehouse district accent straight out of a Jason Stratham London gangster movie from the beginning of the century.
Background: Edgar grew up in a Leeds orphanage, fighting for scraps to survive and usually eating more than his share. By the age of eight, he was making pocket change by vandalizing stores who were behind on their "insurance." At 14, he was providing security for bagmen, and at the age of 20, he was an important man; the right hand of an upwardly mobile Boss and making sure the enforcers of other Bosses knew it. Another ten years later, he was a footsoldier in a terrifying underworld war upon who's outcome the entire country depended. Go figure.
Now he's a vampire, and a Ventrue at that. Go figure. He's the opposite of what most expect from a Ventrue, especially other Ventrue. Good thing he has a large group of friends who are in a similar boat. He knows the value of being part of an organization, and of being feared. The rest will come with time.
