Other Characters

There are still some within the Tower that do not serve Pendulum's will; there are yet more that were eliminated by Pendulum before the events of the game.

The Palmes Family
The Palmes Family have been stewards of the Tower of Malton since time immemorial. Regretfully, it seems that the latest generation has been turned from warden to inmate.

Mary Palmes
Mary is currently accompanying the party. She has an Evident Boon, which functions as follows:
 * "As an "Examine" action, you can study and sense a particular Object of historic significance to the Palmes Family. You will gain an impression of the purpose of the object (if any) in overcoming the current issues of the tower, including its historical purpose, why it may be useful, and/or how to properly interact with it. Alternatively, as an "Examine" action, you may attempt to detect the location of a single known item of historical significance. If the item exists, you will gain a faint impression of its location, which may include a particular room or Section, or a description of its surroundings."

Henry Palmes
Henry Palmes' current whereabouts are unknown, though Julia suspects that his body has been possessed by Enemies, leaving his spirit adrift.

The Tower's Workers
The effort to convert the Tower of Malton to electricity was a major undertaking, requiring a major labor force in kind. The majority of those workers are presumably deceased, and the rest may be joining their fellows sooner rather than later.

Lily Evans
Lily Evans' corpse was found in the Washroom (Workshop), having taken her own life rather than be turned to Pendulum's side. This last act of defiant will empowered Lily's Sawblade.

Lucas
Lucas's corpse was found in the Visitation Center, having sacrificed himself to lure Enemies into a trap, buying time for those he loved. This last act of defiant hope empowered Lucas's Makeshift Shield.

George Tellbath
George Tellbath was the First Floor Foreman. His corpse was found in the Main Cistern. Edmond Gillen conversed with his ghost, obtaining the following information.


 * He oversaw 39 other Tower workers.
 * When the Tower was attacked by Pendulum, everything seemed to hit the fan at once. Screams broke out in the Tower, and the door was found to be barred.
 * George attempted to evacuate everyone he could into the "old stonework beneath the Pipeworks". It seems that there may be a survivor or two down there, or at least what's left of them.
 * While sweeping through the Utilities section, he met a Cog for the first time: one Ms. Byrne, with gears and wires extending from her face. She shoved him into the Cistern, and the creature he saw there with him wrapped around him and drowned him.


 * Henry apparently was working on things that had nothing to do with getting the tower lit up. George claims the tower would already have been ready months ago had it not been for this other stuff.
 * He insisted that no pipes or wires be put too deep to "preserve the sacred foundation".
 * One of his goals seemed to be the "alignment of the dark body".
 * The pendulum mechanism is not just for a clock, and seems to have another inscrutable purpose.


 * Just a few days before everything went down, Henry made George take the key to the Old Storage Room. It apparently contains old banners, swords, and jewelry (likely other stuff as well). Perhaps this is related to the tower's original purpose?


 * George's story also suggests that in addition to the enemies we're aware of, there are things that can crawl on the walls and others that can fly through the air in here with us. They all appeared at once.

Alice
Alice was found, alive, in the Dormitories Section. She was hysterical and wielding a revolver, though she was... "calmed down". She now accompanies the party. She does not have any known special abilities; nor does she still possess the revolver.
