R-065: Silas St. James

A member of the expansive St. James family. On the surface, Silas comes across as very slippery and shady. Due to his rather shady business and his almost unfortunate - but still handsome - looks, this is hard to avoid. He can be quite disagreeable and has a tendency to rub people the wrong way. If you aren't from 'polite company' or the upper (or middle, but are exceedingly polite or interesting) echelons of society, he doesn't try very hard to dispel of this first impression. He is dangerously cunning and intelligent, especially with a mind to businesses and finance. Silas is very Machiavellian, and craves power, though he lacks the political clout and appeal to gain it. He's a schemer, through and through.

Silas is not inherently evil, though he seems otherwise. He possesses a dry sense of humor, and enjoys making himself seem more passive and obsequious, especially among peers. During leisure time, he is commonly found in his study with a glass of fine wine and a tome of some sort.
