Editing The Emerald Hatter (section)

=====Background=====
The Emerald Hatter is a rumor whispered about by the newer members of the Red Queen's gang. A mysterious figure in a green duster and a matching top hat, some say they've seen him, most have a story about how they narrowly escaped being attacked by a man in green who's skills with a blade are frankly astounding. He seems to have little compunction about who he protects cop, cape, or capo as long as it messes with the red queen's work in some way. Mostly he's not seen at all. Usually a patron of the Kitty Kat Club will see a body lying in a nearby alley, dead or badly beaten, a Queen of Hearts with both heads burned out and 10/6 scrawled on it in florescent green pinned to the body.


In actuality Alexander Liddel is the only surviving member of his family, nearly all of whom died in a fire designed to cover up one of the Red Queen's operations. He returned home from college to take over his family's business, a small hat shop, that barely keeps him afloat. When he found out about why his parents and sisters had died he had a terrible breakdown. This may have been due to the anthropomorphized dormouse in a teapot that told him how it happened. As he lay in bed recovering for his breakdown his new "friend" started trying to convince him to take revenge. Given that he is a master fencer with saber, foil, and rapier, as well as an award winning gymnast; he might just succeed in forcing the red queen to play 52 pickup-the-dead-bodies-of-her-men.
