Hadrian

Hadrian was a member of the Preston Consilium who professed to be an Acanthus. He was nominally in the Mysterium, and was Lone following the end of the Consilium. He has since been found to be a member of the Seers of the Throne.

After abducting Anglerfish and performing some form of ritual upon her with the aid of Salome, he was tracked down by the Rose and fought them and Hoodsman, attempting to overwrite Hoodsman's soul with his own.

Taken into custody by Sargasso, he was kept at the Sentry's sanctum, north of Lancaster, until Rowntree interrogated him in the presence of Vulpes. Upon determining Hadrian's true loyalties, Rowntree and Vulpes had a conversation which led to Hadrian's death at Vulpes' hands.

He had been mentioned in connection with a possible great threat to the Proximi of Preston, but at this time little else is known.
