The_Numismatist for No. 5
No. 5 has been described as the washed-up warlock of the Managers. He is easily the most powerful member of the group having spent most of his life playing with dark and dangerous magic. He's British, if you didn't catch if from his vocal mannerisms. He used to speak with a fake Cockney accent to further hide his identity but he has since dropped it for his more natural southern accent after his girlfriend died twice.
(No. 5's long-term girlfriend died only a few months ago. And it has hit him HARD seeing as he spent the equivalent of 15 years searching for her in the afterlife only for her to decline coming back to life)
"Right, well... bloody hell. I can’t believe she’s dead. Well, “functionally” dead. I can’t believe me and Nick spent nine months searching the Flipside, Otherside, Underside, Topside, and bloody Limbo just for her and her new boy toy to commit Bird-Assisted suicide."
(No. 5 is describing how a spell went wrong and didn't actually hurt an Eldritch entity, just piss it off)
"Getting impaled by a magic spear would piss anyone right off, I'd think. The point is, it did not WEAKEN her like we expected it to."
(No. 5 is talking about the eldritch curse he has been infected with for the past 15ish years)
"Heaven and Hell, even Jean was nearly consumed by it more than once. It’s ruthless, restless, and remorseless."
