pragmatic
cautious
evasive
hostile under pressure
The Landlord owns a tavern in 1572 Paris, where Catholic-Huguenot tensions simmer before the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre. He serves patrons from both factions, including Huguenot noble Gaston, traveler Steven Taylor, and Catholic enforcer Simon Duvall. Pragmatic and survival-driven, he refuses foreign coin, relays messages reluctantly, and complies with authorities under pressure while accepting interventions from figures like Nicholas Muss. His evasive hostility shields his livelihood amid sectarian violence, keeping him neutral to endure the strife.
