John Havelock

Mountain vendetta. The prone figure in the foreground is Havelock, the only person is this picture who survived the event.

Havelock is a man.

First person

I get too edit my own wiki page and use the first person, because Karl is a close personal friend.

The Man Who Doesn't Get Killed

You probably know me as "The Man Who Doesn't Get Killed," something like that.

Please do not ever refer to me as "The man who can't be killed."

I always said that wasn't true, from the beginning. It causes nothing but attempts on my life, and it's gotten a lot of good and undeserving people murdered, so enough already.

Hollerith

Hollerith is a personal friend of mine, and I need him to keep doing business, so please accord to him the same "Man who doesn't get killed" status that you do for me.

He is The Card Man. He has Cards. You want Cards. Simple. Don't mess with The Card Man, please.

The Patrick Device

The Patrick Device was invented for me by my friend Patrick Ladwig (nonfiction), for which he has my thanks.

Salvatore

Salvatore and I have been friends for a long time.
