Overview
A former member of the Vigilia Evangelica's intelligence apparatus, Norville Craddock had a crisis of faith following his exposure to the dark, ancient things the Church kept hidden. He became obsessed with that which he was supposed to protect, and found a new faith in following the Old Gods. Of course, the Church is none too pleased with this turn of events and wants Craddock silenced. Permanently.
These days, he's hiding out in Seattle, posing as a talislegger and plying his talents as a former intelligence operative to fund his newfound taste for all the vices he ignored for so long as a man of the cloth. When he's not indulging in sins of the flesh, Craddock is delving deeply into the dark mysteries that he once vowed to keep sealed away.
