Name: Rowland Kilroy
Age: 199 (turned at age 39)
Affiliation: Mercer clan
Background: Kilroy doesn’t talk much about his background.  During his human years, he was a longtime bachelor, earned a living as hired muscle for various nobles and high-class merchants, and usually spent those earnings on alcohol.  He caught Elizabeth’s attention due to his habit of getting kicked out of bars late at night for fighting.  She decided he would be perfect as both a bodyguard and an enforcer, and she was convinced she could get him under control.  One night, Elizabeth lured him away from the busier parts of town and turned him herself.  When he came to, he was initially angry about what she had done, even after she explained her proposal.  He remained bitter at her and hid himself away for years, before learning to accept who he was now.  He had been going nowhere in life, and now that he wasn’t going to die anytime soon, he had to figure out something to do with his time.  He eventually returned to her to for the new purpose she had proposed for him.  What began as a strictly professional relationship softened over the years, and they became confidants.  By the time he had spent over one hundred years with her, he had become completely loyal to her.  He remains a dignified bachelor and tries to live from day to day, not to ever think much of the endless future he faces.

~~~

Kilroy's main function in the blending in of the clan is to provide the coffins Jonathan needs for his ailing patients, so he busies himself with the skills of a woodsman and carpenter.  When need be, he poses as the head of the household, with Elizabeth as his second wife and Bela as his son from his (fictional) first wife.
