Description: A man with a calm yet intense air about him, he is renowned for his bright green suits and hats. With a patchy auburn beard and wild auburn hair. He wears an eyepatch.

Personality: He barks his statements quickly and with little fuss. He prefers small words and is at his heart utilitarian. He does not trust anyone and sleeps with one eye open.

History: He was born a particularly ugly child, much to the horror of his parents. His parents died when he was young, and he was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Halander grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food. To avoid death by starvation, most orphans take to a life of crime or prostitution (often both), and so did Halander. He got money to start a business from the gang present in town. He is greatly indebted to them.

Description: A 3'5" western man, he wears a faded coat and loose pants complete with small hat. His brown hair is greying along the sides and has receded to reveal a widow's peak. He has a very pronounced jaw and large eyebrows. He wears rectangular glasses with silver brims.

Personality: He is curt in most of his responses. He prefers to keep his word usage to a minimum to avoid giving away unnecessary information. His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Burgell is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: He got into the Butcher business at a young age. He graduated from the Naval Academy and went to see the world at the rank of Ensign.
