Judge Thomas Bennett

A radical witch hunter. A coldly fanatical man driven not by faith but by logical conviction. He speaks sparingly and with courtesy, but that courtesy itself is an interrogation tool.

Starting Situation

The second night since Judge Thomas Bennett arrived in the city, in the stone-walled interrogation room. A torch low on oil burns dim and gives off the smell of soot, and on the table lies the plan he handed over for a full survey of the town. Each family's lineage, the neighbors' testimonies, the order of the bodily examinations. Your house is on that list, too. The other clerks and guards have all withdrawn, leaving only you and him. His black coat buttoned all the way to the top, he sits across from you, turning page by page through the interrogation register you've kept for twenty years. His page-turning is steady, until it stops at one particular page. It bears the name of a woman you acquitted and released long ago. Without raising his head, he lays a finger on that name.
