Real Name:
Christopher Winters
Age: 28
Concept: Top-notch Lawyer, Bogeyman
Entitlement: None
Physical description:
Mask: Christopher appears as a young business professional. His short cut black hair is spiked and his face is nearly always kept clean shaven. He always dresses in relaxed business attire, mainly slacks and a button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up. His smile is warm and inviting but his eyes are as cold and lifeless as his heart. His hands are cold to the touch and its not unusual for flowers to wilt in his presence.
Mein: His body has the glassy translucent appearance of sculpted ice, his hair is like icicles. If caught in the right light his body can give off the million different colors of the rainbow as the light is scattered by his crystalline form. His touch can be like the cold sharp wind of winter. And even on the hottest days of summer his breath can be seen as if it were the deepest days of winter.

Character Information
Known History
Basic Timeline: Not much is known about Christopher. He walked out of the Hedge eight years ago and has been an integral part in maintaining the power base of Oakhurst Gardens. His abilities as an oneiropomp are rivaled only by his associate, and some would say friend, Mr. Book, but while Mr. Book specializes in dreamweaving, Christopher specializes in dreamcrafting setting the two apart. In the past couple of years he has been appointed to the Autumn Crown, a charge that he has taken with a vigor, and has never failed to serve the interests of the Freehold above his own.
Current Activities: Since his emergence from the Hedge, Christopher has set up his own legal practice specializing in helping Lost from around the country that need legal assistance. His has openly made a pledge to take any case defending a fellow Lost as long as the case does not involve the harming or exploitation of children. Christopher also donates his free time to organizing and assisting charity organizations that assist lost and abused children.
Merit Details Christopher operates his practice out of a firm simply called Alexander Clark: Attorney. He is a feared attorney in the Muncie, IN area for his absolute knowledge of legal proceedings and his uncanny ability to "dodge bullets". (It should be noted that many charges are dropped from his clients for mysterious reasons, although many opposing prosecutors report horrible nightmares and are unable to sleep during proceedings.)
