Virgil

Virgil (alias The Deacon) is a relatively young devil that, depending on your perspective, has either infiltrated the Church or is a living example of the power of God. They are a customer of Thomas Jones, an old friend of Agatha Esen, current partner of Able Price, and eventual collector (in his eyes) of The Bandaged Man's soul.

Before London
During the reign of the Fourth City, Virgil was PLACEHOLDER. Near the end of the Fourth City's reign, Virgil had tried to take the soul of Agatha Esen but failed. Rather annoyed by this, he tried again, and subsequently failed spectacularly. Amused by his failures, Agatha taught Virgil lessons on patient and humility, and on how to be more successful at charming the Khaganate populace.

After London
PLACEHOLDER.

Able Price
Originally meeting as acquaintances, Virgil has grown fond of Able's sincerity with him and with toying with Able's naivety. He greatly appreciates Able's directness and finds his lack of tact amusing (at least, when directed at non-infernal subjects). He finds his general honest demeanor refreshing in London's environment.

Thomas Jones
Virgil is fairly professional with Thomas. Though he is aware of how much knowledge Thomas has on him due to their business involvement, he treats him cordially and impartially. He often underestimates Thomas's capabilities until he exceeds his expectations.

Agatha Esen
PLACEHOLDER

The Bandaged Man
The relationship is one-sided; while the Bandaged Man believes himself to be a close friend among high society, Virgil sees them as an investment and treats their relationship as unwanted professional involvement. He tolerates him, possibly more than he ought to.

Personality
Virgil is temperate compared to his fellow devils, but very much still amused by the same vices. Equally hedonistic and austere, he is well balanced in his vices and virtues. Unapologetic about his beliefs, he fully embraces his paradoxical position as a devil and a deacon and preaches the position of morality being fluid and relativistic. He values consistency in one's ideals and appreciates honesty and sincerity, even if the honesty admits something truly terrible, bizarre, or paradoxical.

Trivia

 * Virgil used to have a different look during the Fourth City. He does not appreciate inquiries about it.
