Justin Whately was a pedophilic doctor in life.
In death, he became a wraith of the Iron Legion and ascended the ranks as an Anacreon of Atlanta.
History[]
Justin Whately was a fine, upstanding citizen as far as anyone was concerned, often doing volunteer work and always attending church. The good Doctor Whately was known for his generosity, his talent at wood carving and for his willingness to make housecalls to even the worst neighborhoods. What no one knows, even today, is that Justin was a pedophile. Some things never change. Justin died of a stroke at the age of 65. Most of Justin's time these days is spent making deals, exchanging knowledge or goods for money or influence. Justin is a force to be reckoned with and very unpopular with the Hearse Riders and the Shattered Chain alike.
Justin Whately, the Anacreon of the Iron Legion, believes in power and money above all else. Therefore, he does his best to make certain that no one who potentially belongs in the Iron Legion dies peacefully. Justin does all he can to ensure that the elderly in Atlanta die without having resolved their earthly troubles, hoping to produce more wraiths and more Enfants that he can claim as his by right. Justin also believes in dealing out slavery as his number one source of extra income and his number one source of punishment for those of the Iron Legion who betray him. Very few of the victims of old age dare to openly defy him. Of late, Justin has been troubled by the surprising number of his subjects who have managed to reach the Shadowlands. He fervently attempts to enure their capture by Reapers, but his obssesion with capturing each and every one of the many elderly who die each day in Atlanta has started to affect his ability to lead properly. Several of the Iron Legion's more prominent figures are still considering what to do about the situation, but there is very little doubt among them that he must be replaced. His most vocal opposition to date have been from Thomas Kershaw.

Justin is a charming man, short, portly and full of vigor. Justin wears clothes from the 1960’s, the era when he passed away. He was obviously wealthy in life and maintains the same wealth in death, although his deals with Reapers and slavers alike have made him wealthier than he ever was in life. Justin tends to stare for great lengths of time at the pocket watch he brought over with him when he died. Justin smells faintly of ether.
