History
Jezza Chance learned the geometry of survival on the cobbles of Fitzrovia and took his surname as a promise: luck was something to be wrought, not begged. In his mid-twenties he rules the Fitzroy Place Gang with a crooked-cordial authority, his territory a ring of lamplight and hedgerows around Regent's Park where the well-to-do's carriage lamps meet the slums' smoking alleys. He recruits where the workhouses and gutters disgorge children, sweeping up homeless orphan boys and teaching them to move like ghosts—silent footfall, borrowed keys, the practiced tilt of a coin to distract a servant. Jezza trains them not only in picklocks and eavesdropping but in etiquette for slipping unseen through drawing rooms: how to fold a waistcoat to hide a prize, where to leave a torn glove so no suspicion will alight. The gang is a ragged family; he enforces a hard code—no beating, no murder, share the spoils—and insists on lessons in reading by candlelight so his boys have a chance at more than a life of petty theft.
He carries the spoor of other encounters. Once, on the edge of the Serpentine under a moon like a pale coin, Jezza stole into a service of a lord whose cabinet contained curiosities that smelled of peat and old blood; a brass pocket-watch that ticked backward, a carved mammoth tooth with sigils, a child-sized marionette that stirred of its own accord. He has traded favors with low things that live in sewer mouths and in the hollows beneath the park's great elms, and he bears a thin white mark across his palm from a night he tried to pry open a chest that should have stayed shut. The arcane bruises him with whispers—luck that arrives as a draught of cold, a talisman that will not stand long under scrutiny—but they have also taught him arcane tricks useful to a burglar: which wards to avoid, which patterns of sigils yield when coaxed, how to read a ward as one reads a lock. Jezza Chance moves through the fog of Regent's Park with the steady, wary grin of a man who knows both the streets and the shadows.
