Character Profile: Lord John Chamberlain

“That’s Lord John to you.”

Name: Lord John Chamberlain

Occupation: Peer of the Chamberlain court

Features in: PURPLE RIBBON ; THE BOSS ; ERROR 65

Lord John is the snarkiest of the Chamberlain siblings. The younger brother of Lady Jane and the elder of Lord James, John was always considered the runt of the litter. He spent his life trying to prove himself amongst a powerful and influential family. This was not helped when he was overlooked as head of the family for more favoured brother, James.

John is ambitious, power hungry and downright evil for the most part. With a penchant for strangling prostitutes and a real skill at chess, Lord John is a figure to be remembered in the Shady City.

John’s place at the head of the Chamberlain family fell further away from him when James’ Wigan wife, Natalie, gave birth to two children, Charlotte and son and heir Francis. This leaves the deplorable Lord more obsticals to get out of his way. The key to a successful chess match is patience after all!

Lord John has set his sights on the mayoral office of Coldford and with that secured he will not only surpass his family name anyway, giving him the power to do whatever the hell he likes, turning the Shady City into his own personal chess board.


Lord John knows how to hold a grudge. When an internet troll threatens to expose crimes he committed several years ago it takes all his chess mastery to avoid a check and turn the game in his favour.
