Born in Cornwall, John Pascoe is an elderly man who claims to be a tutor but is in fact known to be an abortionist by those with the correct contacts. He has been in the city for a few years.

John Pascoe has only been noted once, conducting an abortion in Chapel Hill; the patient is Shannon Quartermaine, whose father is in the waiting room with no knowledge of what his daughter is doing.

John Pascoe is currently still in Chapel Hill.

Fedya Michailov is a dissolute Jewish street musician, recently immigrated from Russia. The busker has a residence in the slums, where he keeps himself and his guitar in the best condition he can afford. Not blessed with facility in the great language of England, he must make his way as he can, often hindered by his deficiencies.

Fedya Michailov was spotted at the scene of the murder on Kirk Street, where he was initially simply a bystander looking on at the gruesome corpse. He was contracted on the spot by Matthew Connors to play uplifting music in an attempt to lighten the pall cast by the murder; it did not have the intended effect and Fedya got into an argument with Ursela Shelby, a friend of Julie Ridley’s. He was briefly chastised by Ian Tate, a constable arriving at the scene, and became irritated and left.

He was next seen at the Lindeman Theatre, where he auditioned in reply to a “musician wanted” advertisement posted by the Lloyd Brother’s magic show. He was doing well until Tarryn Lloyd lit a string of firecrackers by his ear; it has yet to be seen how the audition will turn out.

Fedya Michailov is currently still at the Lindeman Theatre.

Born in Budapest, Hungary, Anastazia Bartos was the daughter of a wealthy landowner. Travel to America led her to meet the man she would become engaged to; however, a series of misfortunes led to the loss of family, fortune, and fiancé, and now she walks the streets of Lindebo as a prostitute, holding down a position in a brothel as well.

Anastazia Bartos has been seen in Bramwell, in the dwelling of Tirzah Grant-Freeman, where they discussed the long lost loves and broken hearts in their respective pasts. Anastazia managed to first offend Tirzah Grant-Freeman by slighting her skin colour, and then to obtain her pardon. Tirzah Grant-Freeman’s daughter, Rachel Grant-Freeman, arrived in the middle of the conversation, and Anastazia recognised her as a relation to her long-dead fiancé, James Rhett. It turned out that the father of James Rhett had sired Rachel Grant-Freeman on Tirzah Grant-Freeman via raping her when she was his slave, and finding out that Anastazia was the former fiancé of James Rhett was too much for Tirzah Grant-Freeman. Anastazia was requested to leave. She did so graciously, without hard feelings between any present.

As a result of this conversation, Anastazia decided to try and make something decent of herself, and promised herself that she would give up the life of a whore. Much like a phoenix rising from ashes to once more fly proud and free, Anastazia dragged herself out of her rut, dressing to hide her profession and going to seek the position of governess at the Langley household. She was accosted on the way by a former client, and was in imminent danger of being raped until Mads Jørgensen inserted himself into the situation and knocked her assailent unconscious. She introduced herself to him, and he to her, letting him know that she intended to continue on to interview for the position at the Langley house.

Anastazia Bartos is currently still outside the Langley house.

Born in an undisclosed location near London, Nora, last name unknown, grew up in Saint Francis’ Orphanage for Boys and Girls, and spent her formative years in that institution. She was abused both mentally and physically by a priest that ran the orphanage, and she left when she was fifteen, when the priest was murdered brutally. She drifted through London and down to Lindebo, and now walks the streets as a prostitute.

Nora was first noted taking a walk in the park, where she and a friend stumbled into Lord Wothersham. He accidentally groped her, and apologies went back and forth until Lord Wothersham agreed to buy her a drink in recompense, though Nora assumed it was a prelude to acquiring her services for the night.

Following up immediately on Lord Wothersham’s agreement, Nora guided them to McMillian’s public house, a place where the sounds of the working class disguised their conversation for the most part. They talked, Lord Wothersham bullied one of his peers into silence, and Nora became convinced that he was after something. Once her suspicions were calmed to a more normal level, Nora began to learn to write her signature. However, her insistence on paying for her own drinks upset Lord Wothersham, and Nora demonstrated physically that she was not offended and he need not be upset, which upset him further and caused him to leave. Nora then drank herself into unconsciousness, and was later taken to her home by Haverhill, at Lord Wothersham’s behest.

Several days later, Nora was seen walking along the riverside, where she was taken by passersby as a disreputable woman trolling for kisses and coins. She had a brief encounter with some street children she knew.

Not long thereafter, one Mr Hanford visited Nora’s place, arriving at the tail end of an anxiety attack of Nora’s. Despite not feeling well, she let him in, and after their business was concluded, collapsed. Upon coming to, she contracted to accompany a client to the Theatre at a future date.

Nora then appeared briefly at the Lindeman Theatre, in the sanctuary of Tobias Green’s company. She had a conversation about the play they saw there and then, because he did not desire her company in her professional occupation, agreed to spend their time together in a manner less stressful to him, which was determined to include listening to him read to her and then discussing the material afterwards.

She was seen a few days later at the Lindeborough Castle, dressed with the appropriate gravity for a visit to such a dignified place. Forced to wait until the Countess, who summoned her there, was available, she was mistakenly asked to wait in the same drawing-room as Lord Wothersham. She apologised to him, and he to her, and they agreed to pretend as if their previous meeting had not occurred. They then had a conversation where each lied to the other about their reasons for being at the castle, but very shortly into it Nora managed to discomfit Lord Wothersham enough to make him leave. She then fortified herself with drink before being called into the Countess’ bedchamber on business.

Shortly after this incident, Nora attended the Easter Ball, accompanying Rueben Raymond as a paid escort, although this fact was hidden from all but her other customers of note. She only remained his escort for a brief period; one of the first things he did was to introduce her to his father and some of his father’s associates. One of these associates, Anna Sutcliffe, was known to Nora from her childhood at the orphanage, and it came to light that Anna Sutcliffe’s sister, Charlotte Kendall, was known to Nora also—as a murderess. Nora fled their presence and the ball, and Reuben Raymond pursued her, beating her savagely for her flight. Haverhill, house steward to the Lord Wothersham, interrupted the beating and choked Reuben Raymond into unconsciousness; Lord Wothersham found Nora, also nearly unconscious, and at Haverhill’s suggestion took her where she might recover, staying to comfort her. Helen Hardacre followed her brother and intruded upon the situation; shortly thereafter Nora was left alone with Helen Hardacre, and they had a conversation mostly regarding the absent Lord Wothersham. Upon his return, Lord Wothersham offered his services as Nora’s replacement escort, and she accepted the offer. Not a minute later, the three of them chanced across Charlotte Kendall and Anna Sutcliffe again, and another confrontation ensued. Charlotte Kendall extended an invitation to tea to Nora, and once the conversation concluded Nora re-entered the ball on Lord Wothersham’s arm. They talked for a while and then Lord Wothersham was forced by his sister, Mary Doyle, to leave. Mary Doyle and Helen Hardacre then proceeded to try and put Nora at ease, which panicked Nora and drove Mary Doyle to distraction. Lord Wothersham then returned and proceeded to monopolise her for three hours, at the end of which time a tango was announced. While observing the tango, Nora managed to discomfit Lord Wothersham, and at the end she was witness to the mass hysteria that seized the ball-goers when the mutilated body of Ferdinand Mallister was discovered. At this point in time she left the ball, in the company of Lord Wothersham, his sisters, and his steward.

Nora then took a walk to remember in the company of Lord Wothersham, telling him she lived at number seven Grainger-street and being escorted to that location correspondingly. Once there, she attempted to persuade him to partake of her specialty services; he refused and she approached him closely. She managed to offend him in four separate ways with just a few words when he mistook her meaning, and he left abruptly. Nora was dumbstruck at his misinterpretation and left Grainger-street in a very distracted state of mind.

The next morning, the sun stole into Nora’s place to discover that Nora was suffering from an incredible hangover as a result of drinking herself to sleep the night before. Nora only vaguely remembered the details of the previous evening after she left Lord Wothersham’s company, but the bartender, Byron McMillian was involved. She was disturbed from her slumbers by Haverhill, who gained admittance to her room and then proceeded to put her back in bed and to clean up her place. Nora discovered that the reason he was there was to deliver a letter of apology in the stead of Lord Wothersham. Unable to read herself, she asked Haverhill to read her the letter, and then, confused about its contents, made him an offer of her body in exchange for honest information. He refused her offer but imparted the information, and then left, leaving her in a state of confusion, although perhaps a little lessened in degree.

During the routine course of her life a couple days later, Nora visited McMillian’s bar to take care of some business arrangements. She was detained by some unscrupulous men outside, but the intervention of the street urchin William, bearing a message from Byron McMillian, prevented any immediate unpleasantness. Nora went to Byron McMillian and flirted and discussed business with him, before going into the back rooms with him to speak with an unhappy client. The client ordered her to have sex with his son, Tobias Green, in front of Byron McMillian so that he would have verification that the deed was done—Nora had previously made an arrangement with Tobias Green that he would not be required to sleep with her when they were together. Nora attempted to oblige, but Tobias Green refused to cooperate with either her or his father, and left the room, after being disowned by his father. His father was upset and left also, after demanding money from Byron McMillian and Nora. Deciding that this was something to celebrate, Byron McMillian took advantage of Nora’s services, and afterwards stood with her at the bar until she decided to join a group of people in the back. She approached them, and was welcomed by Mads Jørgensen. She talked to him as she watched Betty Folgers attempting to secure a night with Ethan Perris.

It is not yet known what happened after this.

Nora was next seen preparing to visit both old friends and new ones, outside number seven Grainger-street, where she arranged via Haverhill to meet Lord Wothersham in regards to the invitation to Charlotte Kendall’s tea. She was happy to see him, and entered his barouche to proceed towards the Kendall residence. She apologised for upsetting him on their last meeting, and then noticed that he was ill. The remainder of their drive was characterised by awkwardness, until they arrived and fear got the upper hand. Nora, despite being terrified of Charlotte Kendall, whom she knew to be a murderess, was sufficiently angered by the conversation that the woman brought up during tea to deliver a scathing tirade to her. Charlotte Kendall was distressed and left the tea, and Nora collapsed to the floor once her anger was no longer enough to hold her up. Lord Wothersham joined her, and spent some minutes comforting her before they moved to other parts of the room. At one point he very nearly kissed her, but was prevented from it when Anna Sutcliffe walked into the room. He left, and Nora talked to Anna Sutcliffe before rejoining him outside, where he was talking to the Kendalls. Nora took a tour through the house, during which she was particularly impressed by Christopher Kendall’s library and greenhouse. She left some hours later, along with Lord Wothersham, and he drove her back to the Grainger-street house. She was miserable at the end of the day, because Lord Wothersham failed to give her any hope of ever seeing him again.

Life went on, however, and she was required to attend a private meeting with the Countess of Lindeboshire. Lady Lindeboshire gave her strong spirits, and then proceeded to pump her for information regarding her relationship with Lord Wothersham. On finding out that there was no such relationship, Lord Wothersham having at no time engaged Nora’s services, Lady Lindeboshire seemed mollified but curious and they exchanged ideas as to why he might associate with her. However, Lady Lindeboshire was not really concerned about him anymore, since it was apparent that Nora was not going to be competition for her niece, and moved on to make Nora an offer. In return for being the Countess’ kept woman, Nora would have both a living and be well paid. Nora was given time to think about it, and then they moved on to the business which Nora was there for.

A couple days later, Nora was reading some papers she had from her childhood when she was disturbed by a rapping at her door and put them back under Lord Wothersham’s pen-case; it turned out that her visitor was Lord Wothersham himself, and that he was there to get the pen-case back. She was surprised to see him, but when he asked for his pen-case back she returned it at once. He then asked if she would like to walk with him, and she accepted with alacrity.

Nora is currently still in her apartment.
