Big Lou

Owner of Balefire Records, Big Lou is a giant amongst the other independent labels.
He is specifically interested in folk and political music - things with heart and soul to them.
Of course, once you know that Lou's an unseelie sidhe, it begins to make sense. His musicians are his Dreamers, and his recording studio is his freehold.
He has an entourage of other sidhe and fae loyal to the ruling class (though the gentry has crumbled since the days of the Shattering), as well as his own Enchanted humans to attend to his every whim.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Large, imposing, and strong. Big Lou is everything that his name implies.

Mental characteristics

Morality & Philosophy

Like most unseelie sidhe, Lou is of the opinion not only that the seelie are a bunch of do-gooders who inconvenience themselves to keep their conscience clean, but also that the commoners would do very well to know their place.
Of course, he knows that this is an unpopular opinion since the Shattering, so he keeps it to himself.
He doesn't hold back from making digs at the commoners, Dreamers, Enchanted, or kinain in his retinue though.

Social

Contacts & Relations

Besides having a revolving door of assistants and others to help him out, Big Lou's entourage includes:

• Johanna Keene (unseelie autumn sidhe, lady of House Scathach)
• Nero Grange (unseelie piskey)
• Bailey Bronx (unseelie autumn sidhe, squire of House Scathach)
• Max Varaday (unseelie selkie)
• Violet Xavier (unseelie autumn sidhe, lady of House Scathach)

There is a strange polyamorous... thing between Johanna, Violet, and Lou, but no one comments on it for fear of being rude.
He also has in his retinue "Ginger" (Virginia), a satyr kinain who is basically his gopher and footstool. He sometimes calls her "Legs" because he thinks it's funny.

Social Aptitude

Big Lou is extremely charming... and a bit manipulative. He doesn't like to let people leave his entourage or his label.
His sessions with his artists can range from the purely benevolent and helpful (Musing) to the terrifying and borderline abusive (Ravaging). Just have to hit him on the right day.

Wealth & Financial state

Coming from a long line of property owners in Brooklyn, Big Lou's monetary wealth and influence allows him to touch anything... though there's still the chance that it can't be pulled.

Current Location
