Character

  • Age: 28
  • Occupation: CFO in his father’s company (above his sister)
  • Relation to the victim: middle son
  • Possible motive: even though he was not the first born, as first male born, he was going to inherit his father’s company and fortune. However, Edwin accepted nothing short of perfection, and always made him feel useless and not worth of his inheritance, even going as far as threatening to remove him from the will. He was negotiating a contract with an enemy company
  • Personality traits: seems to always be making jokes and taking the situation unseriously, but in reality, he is analysing everything and everyone in hopes he may discover dirty info about any of them. Always walks very straight
  • Mannerisms: he will always look people in their eyes directly, never shies away from an eye battle. This is especially useful to get people to confess their truths and sins to him.
  • Physical appearance: brown short hair (not buzzed), usually combed back with gel. Always wearing a dark suit (preferably black or navy blue)
  • Hobbies: he enjoys playing any card game, but specifically those that require lying (like poker), however he has recently developed a betting addiction problem because of this.
  • Suspicious behaviours: due to his gambling addiction, he owes a lot of money to very powerful people, so he spends his free time trying to get some money back.
  • Health: healthy
  • Speech: always making jokes but knows how to get his point across. If people misunderstand him, he makes sure they always understand what he wants, even if the message is hidden between lines, they always know. Very skilled in changing from a funny to serious tone in a heartbeat.
  • Other relationships: sister (Fionna), brother (Marcus) and mother (Margaret)
