System Information
  • Lives to serve: Edison likes to make himself useful, and can be useful in all kinds of ways. Want anything? Need anything? It can likely be yours... For a price. A price that may only be a favor. Cheap, for anything you want...

  • The Devil & Miss Addington: Edison is also Hyacinth Addington's personal assistant. If you want anything from Hya, it's probably best to go through Edison first.

  • A Baxter? Yes, that is his last name...not at all related to that mysterious family who vanished from Gray Harbor so long ago, is he?

  • Glimmer: It's everything to him.

  • Slightly unsettling: He's got sort of a creepy vibe. It's not enough to make most folks completely steer clear, but they might give him the side-eye. Talking about his carnivorous plant collection probably doesn't help.

This man in his thirties is tall, pale and spindly, like a spider. He's not half bad-looking (great cheekbones!), but there's just something a little...off about him. Maybe it's the way he tends to stare without blinking, or his ability to show up when one least expects it. Either way, he's a bit unsettling.

His hair is black, a little greasy, and cut short, save for longish bangs swept into a left part. Facial features are angular, but his lips are a cupid's bow. Eyes are grey and difficult to read, with long eyelashes.

Edison’s style is minimalistic, and almost always black: slim trousers, turtleneck sweaters, and shiny black shoes are the norm. Sometimes he wears crisp suits, or a jacket and tie. Every once in awhile, he'll dare to wear something gray or perhaps white. But black is generally preferred.
