Role Historian & Occult Scholar (Order of St. Aelfric) Nationality British Status alive Age Forties

Background

Mr. Tobias Whitmore is a senior member of the Order of St Aelfric, a former university professor now dedicated to the Order’s research. He resides at Hartwell House, where he occupies a well-stocked study on the second floor.

Tall, lean, with graying hair and an ink-stained waistcoat, his presence is more academic than aristocratic. He speaks in measured tones, though his enthusiasm for hidden knowledge is evident.

Campaign History

• Summer 1813: Met Marina Garrick at Hartwell House during her induction into the Order. Engaged her with questions testing her intellectual curiosity: “Do you believe, Miss Garrick, that knowledge is a weapon — or a curse?”
• Winter 1813 (Training Montage): One of six instructors who trained the investigators at Hartwell House between The Long Corridor and The Scandal Beneath the Stage. Fellow instructors: Miss Beatrice Harrow, Mr Alfred Smythe, Miss Dorothea Bexley, Mr Benedict Fairfax, Lady Wilhelmina Danvers.
