Don Angus le Todde Mac Donnell, or just "Todde".
Persona
Todde mac Donnell is a private agent of the Earl of Cassilis at the markets of Bruges in the late 1560’s. His primary duties are selling the wool from his excellency’s flocks at a good price, and seeing the wealth returned on a ship loaded with profitable goods and whatever luxuries the Earl desires. As this work puts ten thousand marks in his hands for a few short weeks, Todde spends the prior months arranging profitable orders and sales. If he can string together a few prudent trades while dodging religious riots and overzealous Spanish magistrates, the profits will fund the Calix Inundans Company’s growing ventures all year.
Todde spends the rest of the year attending to his lovely Venetian wife Mora, dabbling in leatherwork, practicing his rapier, and traveling fairly regularly to Spain and Caid to investigate business opportunities. Calix Inundans keeps its Mediterranean warehouse in Cadiz, down the street from the Inn of the Crimson Spade, the better to um, provide the Earl with his luxuries.
