Fergus “McChum” Chum, 40, bar owner


The Chinese-Scotsman owns and runs the Stumbling Tiger Bar on Lantern Street. To the occidentals among his clientele, he is known as “McChum” in honor of his Scottish ancestry. A native of Shanghai, McChum keeps his eyes open and his mouth closed. He speaks English with a thick accent, and the clarity depends on how quickly he talks—if he gets excited, he has a tendency to miss words out, almost lapsing into pidgin.

Description: squat Eurasian chain-smoker, with nicotinestained fingers and a thin, unconvincing smile.

Traits: taciturn, loyal, and guarded.
