"Lytton. He was more than our financier. He was our courage. He inspired us when we faltered."[1]
Lytton is a former verger (church administrator) and idealist, who financed the Seven Against Nidah.[2] Working alongside his wife, the Fierce Philanthropist,[3] his fundraising efforts were vital to the quest for immortality. The pair took donations from bankers, nobles, and anyone else with money and a lust for eternity.[4]
After the failure of the Seven, he fled to Low Barnet, where his entire lower half has been encased in coral and has been merged with the wall of the church. Broken, Lytton has given up on his quest; he wouldn't be able to continue even if he tried, given his current condition.[5] He was determined for his wife to replace him in the Seven in the event of his demise.[6]
