Edwin was born in Chelmsford, the largest settlement on Essex Island. He's the 5th child in his family, and has eleven siblings. Unlike many ratfolk, he felt he needed to stand out; to draw attention to himself, he started dressing exceptionally well, and was careful to maintain high standards of personal hygiene. His brothers and sisters, and many other ratfolk, consider him full of himself, and having a tendency to put on airs.
He excelled at school, having both high intelligence and a good work ethic. He earned a scholarship at a respected second-tier school in Chelmsford, and studied magic and philosophy. He did well enough there to earn admission to the Miskatronic University School of Archaeology graduate program.
Throughout his school years, he spent a good deal of time hunting for good quality used garments, for he needed to look sharp on a budget. He found that he has a natural talent for picking up psychic impressions off objects, particularly clothing. He looked through every used clothing shop in the city, and frequented estate auctions. Through extensive searching, he was able to amass a wardrobe of fine items.
Appearance:
Height: 4'2"
Weight: 80 lb.
Eyes: black
Fur: grey
Edwin is always impeccably dressed. He usually wears a 3-piece suit, an embroidered cape, diamond cuff links, signet ring and dress boots. He always carries a mirror to check his appearance.
