Description

Devonshire is almost always immaculately dressed, with colors generally favoring greys, blues, and greens. Always present will be a patch over his left eye, lost to cold iron in the Accordance War.
In counterpoint to his fashionable dress, a utilitarian rapier with a spiraling copper hilt and a scabbard of battered leather is always at the selkie's side, unless court protocols dictate that he go unarmed. But those who get close enough to either smell the salt breeze that lingers about him, or shiver at the occasional chill that permeates the air.. may realize that even without steel in hand, the baron is far from weaponless.
His coat of arms, Azure a ford a tower argent in fess point striking it from chief sinister a lightning bolt or bendwise sinister , tells some of his story, but for those curious, they can always ask the Baron directly.

Rumors
  • The Baron was to take part in a Shadow Court ritual to ignite a Samhain balefire that could have ended in a sacrifice of an American Legend.. a Legend that owns the Baron a favor
  • At the Lughnasadh gala last year, Devonshire had the first dance of the evening with then-Queen Kiara Knightly., and since then regular letters have been delivered by Devonshire's loyal kinain to the Duchess' compound. One of the more recent missives contained an oath..but which?
  • During the Winter Ball, Devonshire received both an invitation for drinks with the High Regent and a phone number from the Princess of Concordia. Exactly how well connected is this man?
  • A certain group of Seelie frustrated the Baron one night, and now he hunts for more information on them. But who, and exactly what they did, no one is willing to say.
  • There have been several years of tension between Baron Devonshire and the Tyrant of Turtle Bay, Klaus von Teutoburg. Is the selkie looking to usurp the usurper? Are their other, darker factors between them? Does it have to do with the mission below that resulted in the Balefire of the Freehold being kindled? What happened down there, anyway..
  • Devonshire was given charter to a section of Long Island by a Countess of House Scathach. But who, how, and why...

Quotes

(to Duchess Kiara, when asked how he knew of her fondness for Disney animation ) ""It could be I listened, it could be my skill as a soothsayer is better than I realized, or a seagull could have lectured me on this topic three hours past. Who can say?" (After killing the Sidhe archer that took out his eye with cold iron, by stabbing them with the same quarrel he'd been shot with) "Looks like you've got a bit of Selkie blood in you. Normally, I'd just say it isn't fatal, but in your case..."

(Before unleashing the fury of a storm upon a Prodigal who had been preying on dreamers..) "You know that old story..  hell hath no fury? Witness the rage of heaven, fool."
  • "At first, a shadowy, mysterious stranger brought into my field of view during Samhain. And now a good friend, yet still shadowy and mysterious. With Baron Devonshire, you can bet there's always more going on than you can see." - Erzulie Daniels
  • "Baron Devonshire. Your injury is the result of a warcrime, and apologize for every time I made light of it." - Klaus von Teutoburg, shortly before the Battle at the Roadhouse.
  • "Show 'em young un's how it's done!" (Klaus von Teutoburg to Devonshire after his victory at the Beltane drinking competition.)
