==Clothing==
Liam typically dresses in simple pants and jacket of matched dark wool and a starched white shirt. Weather requiring, he will also wear a heavy woolen great coat. He never wears a hat. 

His shoes and belt are sturdy leather.

== Background==
Short, dark, and slight of build, William "Liam" Johnson was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming. His mother died in childbirth and his father was killed in a bar brawl a few years after he was born. As fortune would have it, however, Liam was adopted by his paternal grandfather, a wealthy Cape Cod eccentric who annoyed all the proper folk and basically did as he pleased. 

The old man did not pass down much to young Liam in the way of proper social behavior or work ethic, but he did hand down a rapt fascination of the occult. 

When his grandfather died - under mysterious circumstances - he left everything to Liam, but absent the old man's presence, the young man had little inclination to stick around and left things in the hands of the estate lawyer to handle in his absence.

Liam didn't venture far, mostly roaming the Atlantic northeast, conning folk and tinkering with whatever he got it in his head to tinker with, never staying in one place very long, subsisting on his wits supplemented by letters of credit as needed from the estate lawyer and mostly treating life as a game.

But he retained a healthy fascination with the occult and never passed up the opportunity to look into strange happenings and rumors that crossed his path.
