| Overview
|
  Former Haitian Revolutionary turned Sin-Eater Voodoo Necromancer. He's a relatively recent arrival in Aleswich. He left the small island nation for America about 20 years ago he says, and has traveled most of the Southern United States (most notably Louisiana and New Mexico) and now has moved and is rumored to be an investor or something of the sort in the new club House of Revelations.
Linton is known to have been a Doctor or medic at some point, and the word on the street is that he can do an amazing job of patching someone up and keeping them alive and healing, and that he's not at all the type to ask questions about how you got hurt in the first place. There are other, darker rumors about him as well. People say that he was a Voodoo priest, that in some parts of New Orleans people still whisper his name in fear. The superstitious or occultists of Aleswich might tell tales, little more than 'friend of a friend' stories really, about him holding sway in seances with the dead, finding distant loved ones who have run off, cursing the homes of those who have wronged them, and other more nefarious things... all for the appropriate respect and sacrifice. But if you cross him, people have committed suicide shortly after, ran away from town never to come back, gone crazy and murdered their families. At least, those are the rumors about the strange traveler. Who knows which ones might be true?

- House of Revelations: Linton seems to spend a great deal of time at this place, if you frequent the nightclub or restaurant you are bound to come across him regularly. He, along with the allies he has, attempt to enforce a sort of neutrality on the place. Word has quietly spread among the darker or more criminal factions of the city that anybody, from any faction, at any time, is welcome to his booth and room in the club, and that no violence or hostility against each other will be allowed. A truly neutral and safe meeting place, for anyone no matter how dark their deeds.
- Sin-Eaters: Linton is one of you.

| The Chained Man
|
|
Born during the Dark Ages, the Chained Man was tied up and bound by a roving band of marauders, tortured and then forced to watch from his spot chained and gagged at the stake while his family was violated and then killed in front of him. The cruelness of the fate was that he had once been just such a marauder himself before settling down into a more honest lifestyle, making the death a full circle to his life. Since then he has been obsessed with cycles, balance, and justice, ferocious about bringing high the low, and bringing low the high. Linton is not the first Bargain for this Geist, though so far the Geist has proved mostly inscrutable to the former revolutionary.

| Krewe
|
| Crossroads Krewe - This Krewe is moderately well known across the south and western parts of America, mostly New Orleans, Texas, and parts of New Mexico. Depending on who you talk to they are either a gang of murderous thugs and warlords, or very tough but reasonable peacekeepers. The truth is that they are perhaps a little bit of both, the Krewe has dedicated themselves to 'maintaining' balance with a vicious fervor, which puts them sometimes on the side of the Angels, sometimes on the side of the Devils. They have made it known that the House of Revelations they are invested in is wide open and neutral ground where every Sin-Eater, regardless of their deeds, can find welcome and safety. And that if anyone violates the clubs neutrality and non-violence as a meeting place, retribution will be swift.
