Overview
Alias(es): King; "King of Southie"; "That Bastard King"
Real Name: Unknown
Age: Early 30s
Concept: Dealing with fear is the art of self-negotiation. Whether you give in to fear, rule fear, use it in your dealings, you must negotiate with the logical portion of yourself and the reptilian brain. Suicide King is all about the art of the deal. If you need something, he can find it for a price.
Physical description: To mortal eyes, King appears as an attractive early 30-something who is going a bit grey at the temples. He is usually dressed in a suit with a fedora perched on top of his head. To Changeling eyes, King is a Mirrorskin, no face to speak of save for the reflection of the person who most has his attention at the moment.

Character Information
Known History
Current Activities: King works out of South Boston and can usually be found in one of any number of Irish pubs in the area. He is known to traffic in information, goods that need to be moved quietly, and dealing with mundanes who become too much of a problem. King accepts money, information, goods, and favors in exchange for his help and is known to be quite an adept "gaslighter" should a customer not live up to their part of the bargain.
Background: King was taken by the Three Brothers and used in their vineyard. He escaped the hedge with two others and quickly returned to Boston to set up shop. He arrived in Boston just two years after the Freehold of Boston disappeared and the Courts were in shambles. King rallied those of the Autumn Court, who he sees as "his neighborhood" even if they aren't actual allies. Messing with a member of the Autumn Court in Boston is a quick way to get King's (negative) attention.

Quotes
- Now, you see, we have a slight problem. You rejected my offer of assistance when that assistance was free. I must admit that you hurt my feelings by your rejection. So now, not only do you need to negotiate a price for my assistance, but before that, you need to offer remuneration for my poor hurt feelings.
- Suicide King understands fear because he understands his own. The current Autumn King of Boston chooses to live his life on the edge, so that those who approach him haphazardly risk falling into the dark. Yet his opponents rarely realize there is a real face beneath that mirror. Suicide King's tragedy is that he forgets that himself, sometimes, after reflecting the dark for so long. - Alexander Delapore
- Of course he's a fucking bastard. If I want a shiny hero I go elsewhere. When I want a specific kind of results I come to him. No shame in being a dirty rat bastard, some of my best friends are dirty rats.die Rattenkönigin
- He's a Bastard. But he's an effective one. Penny Mal
- I can't imagine why he would be interested in me. I'm just a girl. Elizabeth Ann Sexton
Rumors
- King is rumored to hate the elderly. Hate to the point of shooting them. It is rumored that he is trying to buy every elderly home in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts so he can set fire to them with their occupants still inside
