The Lion in Winter - Mortal Hooks

  • The Doctor Is In: He owns and operates Sterling Family Medicine, a family clinic located in Downtown Houston. Despite the upscale location, the clinic operates on a sliding scale, and only accepts whatever payment each patient is able to comfortably afford.


  • Wealthy Elite: He is known to enjoy the finer things in life, and can often be seen rubbing elbows with his fellow rich and powerful in various venues all around the city.


  • I Like The Nightlife: He spends a good deal of time living it up and partying down. He's never one to pass up a good time. He's just at home having cigars and whiskey at a highbrow country club as he is dancing the night away at a trendy nightclub. He is a known philanderer, often seen in the company of beautiful young women less than half his age.


The Lion in Spring - Changeling Hooks

  • The Silver Lion: He is a lord of House Fiona, and lives as an example of the passion, romance, and daring the House of the Silver Lion is known for. He will jump at any chance for adventure or excitement, and rarely refuses a quest.


  • Lord of the Springs: He is the Baron of Silver Springs, a small barony located in the River Oaks neighborhood of Houston. His freehold is open to all who come with love in their hearts and laughter on their lips, and he never withholds access to his balefire to Kithain in need of Glamour.


  • Rites of Spring: He is known to be well-versed in the Spring Arts, and freely offers the use of his healing magic for those struggling with illness or injury. His doctor's office is similarly open, and he never expects payment for the use of his medical skills for Kith or Kin.


  • Champion of the People: Though one of Arcadia's exiles who returned during the Resurgence in 1969, he was outraged by the Beltaine Blade massacre. This tragedy drove him to side with the common folk during the Accordance War, and it was only a pardon granted by High King David himself that restored his honor among the peerage.
