==Attendants==

The seven Attendants to Hallowmas are archetypal figures, each representing a specific sin. They accept confessions of sin from Londoners, both their own and those of others, possibly restricted to the sin they embody. Each has a specific persona and regalia, with at least the latter being old enough to predate the First City<ref>{{Citation|https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Learn_about_the_Attendants|Learn about the Attendants|Fallen London|}}</ref>; it is unclear, however, whether the physical costume itself is that old or if it has been remade, as well as if the specific details of the persona have changed in that timespan. 

At the start of Hallowmas, seven people are selected by the Masters and brought to the Bazaar, assigned to play the role and persona of an Attendant for that year. When the holiday ends, the seven return to the Bazaar and "unburden themselves of the city's guilt"; however, the exact means by which they do this is unspecified.
