Background:

Peter of York is a Dominican friar from the priory of York. A trained preacher, as are all Dominicans, Peter has specialised in his study of law, both secular and ecclesiastical, though of course he has favoured canon law. Still, the knowledge of both legal codes is important; We ought to render what is Caesar's, to Caesar, after all. Due to his studies, Peter has excelled in the profession of inquisitor; he has conducted several noteworthy investigations as part of a tribunal, including two inquisitions into possible canonisations, a brief trial concerning possibly heterodoxy in the writings of a Benedictine monk in Wales, and his latest case, which saw him venture south to Gascony to sit on a tribunal debating whether the teachings of a local tutor veered into Manichaeanism.

His family background is of suitably high enough status for Peter to have been accepted into the church, taught as a friar, and given important tasks; while it is possible for a lower status individual to rise in the church and to be given such a prominent position as an inquisitor, it is rare, and Peter is of the more frequent class for such noble undertakings. He remains on good terms with an elder brother, who resides at a manor near Peter's priory home, their parents both being dead, though he has little seen his younger sister, who married a knight from the south of England. Perhaps on his travels back to York from Gascony, Peter may have chance to call on her briefly, but he feels her husband is dreadful boor with little time for the church and for religious faith. 

Peter is currently travelling with a knight from the south to keep would-be bandits at a distance; his inquisition was conducted soundly, and he is returning to York, his warrant having been completed. As Peter has ages, these long travels are starting to take their toll on him, and he hopes that his next case may be some time in coming, and closer to home. His fellow tribunal inquisitors, Guillermo of Savoy and Friedrich of Wien, are probably already home.
