Lila Scriven

Site Canon Character
Co-Leader of the 40 Lambs
30 – 35 · Female
FC: Sujaya Dasgupta

One of the “Twins” that lead the 40 Lambs, Lila is the mastermind behind the entire enterprise. Though many consider her the ‘softer’ of the Twins, Lila is as ruthless as Beatrix, her ‘wife’. The daughter of an English soldier and his Indian wife, Lila has seen how society rejects those deemed lesser or different, and has resorted to carving out a place for herself and her family. Now that the gang has met with such wild success, her ambitions have grown accordingly. She will allow nothing to threaten the success and peace that she has worked so hard to create. All that matters is herself, her wife, and the family they have found.

“Mama” Beatrix Scriven

Site Canon Character
Co-Leader of the 40 Lambs
30 – 40 · Female
FC: Charlize Theron

One of the “Twins” that lead the 40 Lambs, Beatrix is often known as “Mama” or “Mama Bea” by her “lambs,” the women that make up her gang. Beatrix is the leader who wields the iron fist. When the Twins get their hands dirty, it’s Beatrix’s hands that end up bloodiest. Though the concept of the gang and its success is largely due to the strategic mind of her other half, it’s Beatrix’s force of will and willingness to be brutal that has allowed the gang to flourish. She is not a woman of halves. She is devoted entirely to her ‘wife’ Lila, to the gang, and to seeing their power continue to grow.

Meredith Trevor

Site Canon Character
Prostitute
25 – 30 · Male
FC: Aneurin Barnard

The son of a successful Welsh banker, Meredith’s poor behavior during the last decade has seen him cut off from his father’s financial support. In spite of his good education and gentry breeding, Meredith has little love for the world of business and money – save for the methods of spending it. It was spending it, and spending too much time in gambling parlors, that saw him indebted to Lord FitzMaurice and thus whored out at Maggie’s Place. While FitzMaurice keeps him on a short leash, Meredith’s affection for the man has long since waned. Instead, he finds his eye drawn more and more often to the enforcer, and now manager, of the brothel: Martin Love. Meredith is well aware of the dangerous game he plays, but he has never been one for caution… Or denying himself his worst desires.

Martin Love

Site Canon Character
Manager of Maggie’s Place
35 – 40+ · Male
FC: Andreas Pietschmann

One doesn’t dream of one day running a brothel full of homosexuals, and indeed this is not the life that Martin ever imagined for himself. After a career as a constable with the London Metropolitan Police was cut short by running afoul of a gang, he was introduced by a mutual associate to Lord Oscar FitzMaurice. With his knowledge of London policing and his connections at Scotland Yard, Martin seemed ideal to help protect the secrecy of Maggie’s Place. Over time, his role has expanded; after the Madame of the brothel abruptly quit some months ago, Martin was unceremoniously promoted. He’s done well enough in the role, but the stress of dealing with a large number of young, often catty, men and the nature of the clients the brothel attracts, on top of his normal duties of seeing to protecting the brothel from the attentions of the police force and gangs who think they’re owed protection money, has pushed Martin right to the edge.

Enzo Esposito

Site Canon Character
Telegram Messenger, Prostitute
20 – 25 · Male
FC: Tyrone Smithers

Enzo has always felt torn between two versions of himself. French and Italian; serious, dutiful son, and fun-loving artistic soul; normal, and deviant. Brought by his mother to London a few years ago, he does his best to portray himself in the way she expects and is proud of. To that end, he got a job as a telegram messenger, biking around the city to deliver telegrams to a wide variety of individuals. It was through that job that he was introduced to Martin Love, the proprietor of Maggie’s Place, who was quick to offer the handsome young man a place at the brothel. Though it is not the kind of work that Enzo ever imagined himself doing, there is a certain freedom to it that keeps him working there in spite of the danger and the distasteful aspects of it. (The money doesn’t hurt, either.)

Timothy Anderson

Site Canon Character
Detective Inspector, Special Irish Branch, London Metropolitan Police
30 – 35 · Male

An Irish immigrant, Tim has fought for everything he’s ever had. Even with the connections his adoptive father, Superintendent Joseph Warrens, Tim has worked extremely hard to prove that he is just as capable as any other member of the Met. While his birth family does have connections to the Fenians, he has done everything in his power to distance himself from them and their beliefs, including changing his surname when he moved to London. With a chip on his shoulder the size of a city block, he’s spent his entire career in the Met hiding who he is and where he came from, and endeavors to prove himself on a daily basis – even if he’s only proving himself to himself. Recently, he’s been tasked with investigating the Greenstreet Gang, the budding turf war with the Black Powders, and any possible connections there might be with Irish republican sympathizers.

Sir Angus Cruickshanks

Site Canon Character
Detective Chief Inspector, Special Irish Branch
40 – 50 · Male
FC: David Tennant

Sir Angus has been the chief of the Special Irish Branch since its inauguration almost five years ago. Hand-picked for his unique skill set and dedication to the Metropolitan Police, he has faced an uphill battle to ensure his men have the resources and respect they need to do their jobs. Credited for the successful foiling of a Fenian plot during Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee in the summer of 1887 (for which he was knighted), he has since had both more resources and more attention on him, and his men. Sharp of mind, wit, and tongue, Sir Angus leads by example, never asking his men to do anything that he wasn’t equally willing to do.

Hasan Lake

Site Canon Character
Inspector, Division H, London Metropolitan Police
35+ · Male
FC: Rahul Kohli

Inspector Hasan “Henry” Lake is the third son of Lord Nathaniel Lake, Viscount Lake. His father’s holdings in Delhi were also where his parents met. Henry has been afforded every privilege his father’s title confers, but in spite of private tutoring and a university education, he has nonetheless found his calling with the London Metropolitan Police. A neat, dutiful man, he has an excellent track record, and is generally well-liked and respected by his peers. However, he is fully aware that this is largely because of his family’s connections, and has always held himself somewhat apart from his coworkers. Since the recent clash with protestors during Bloody Sunday, Henry has found himself questioning more and more his role as a police officer.

Lord Oscar FitzMaurice

Site Canon Character
Viscount Kirkwall, heir to the Earl of Orkney
30 – 35 · Male
FC: Jude Law

Having never actually been to his family’s lands but once, Oscar FitzMaurice has long enjoyed the benefits of his family’s name, title, and wealth, without ever having much concern of where any of it comes from. Oxford-educated, he styles himself as a poet and artist. As patron of the arts, he attends a great many parties and salons. He also is the (extremely secretive) owner of a gay brothel off of Cleveland Street, named Maggie’s Place, and he is a frequent attendee. Using his family’s resources, he ensures that the place is kept well off of the police’s radar, his identity is kept well-hidden, and his tastes are kept very quiet. Among the offerings of the brothel, his long-standing favorite is Meredith Trevor; he is possessive of the man, even as he whores him out to pay down a gambling debt Meredith accrued some years ago.

Cillian Conroy

Site Canon Character
Accountant
50+ · Male
FC: Ciarán Hinds

A Dublin native with a fondness for drinking and betting on losing dogs, Cillian Conroy ended up deeply in debt to the Greenstreet Gang. To help pay off that debt, he has come along to aid Sean’s takeover of Whitechapel (and perhaps beyond). When drunk, he will also claim that he is present as a friend to Sean’s father, to keep an eye on the often-impulsive lad, but who can say if that’s the truth, or just the ramblings of a man in his cups? Either way, he has Sean’s trust, and under his watchful eyes the coffers of the Greenstreet Gang have grown deep.
