Grandpa Kettleman R.I.P

Wilfred Jafiker Kettleman

"I leave you this business not because I trust you with it, but because I know the debt collectors will find you faster than they found me."
— Excerpt from the Last Will and Testament of Wilfred Kettleman.

Overview

Wilfred Kettleman was the founder of the Sewer Spirits Postal Serviceand a man fueled almost entirely by spite and libido. He was a human supremacist in the bedroom but an equal-opportunity businessman in the streets. He built a postal empire on bad loans, dangerous favors, and the backs of the women he wooed along his delivery routes.
  He is remembered not fondly, but vividly.

Personality & "The Code"

Wilfred was a complicated mess of a man. He was grumpy, relentlessly demanding, and held a strange set of personal ethics:

- The "Un-bangable" Rule: Despite having mistresses across the region, Wilfred was a staunch traditionalist. He refused to romance any species with customs too far removed from humanity (no Kenku, Plasmoids, or Tortles). If you have a beak or a shell, you aren't in the will.
 

  • Accidental Heroism: He is technically a hero for breaking the seals on a Shadow Network transport filled with stolen lives. Yet, the story goes that he didn't care about the plight of the people inside. He was simply furious that the Network was using his trade routes for illicit transport without cutting him in on the profits.

  • The Legacy

    Wilfred died as he lived: causing problems for everyone else. Instead of leaving the Post Office to a capable guild or selling it to pay his debts, he left it to his "disappointing" descendants. He knew the debts were insurmountable and the enemies (Pirates and Shadow Networks) were closing in.
      Giving you the Post Office was his final prank. He wanted to see if you would sink or swim in the mess he created.
