Duncan Gordon is a wraith who resides in Hong Kong since the Japanese invasion of 1941. He is a staunch supporter of Stygia and despises the Jade Empire. He can be found at the ruins of the Repulse Bay Hotel or in Kowloon Station where the Midnight Express has a stop.
Biography[]
Lance Corporal Duncan Gordon was stationed in Hong Kong when the Japanese invaded in 1941. He died defending the Repulse Bay Hotel which was being used as the headquarters for the British Troops on the island. He was reaped by the Grim Legion of Stygia, Duncan watched in horror as his comrades in arms fell to the rifles of the Japanese executioners or languished in Stanley Internment Camp. Duncan quickly became a loyal member of the Smiling Lord and battled the forces of the Jade Emperor for the souls of European soldiers and civilians.
Duncan became one of the fiercest protectors of European and American wraiths, after the war. He would rigidly enforce the treaty between the Jade Empire and Stygia but his hatred for the Japanese has also made him the agreement's chief violator. He will often send Enfants straight to Oblivion or Moliate their features to disguise them as European, smuggling them on the Midnight Express bound for Stygia.
He dreaded the change over and to this day believes he is the last line of defense against the Jade Empire's complete takeover of the Island, even if he has to defy the Hierarchy to do it.
