Edward "Eddy" McGrath
Edward "Eddy" McGrath is the eldest son of of Declan and Camila McGrath, a mob boss in South Soffit, and the twin brother to Charlotte "Charlie" McGrath. While Charlie handles the more covert side of their father's "family business", Eddy covers the face of the business to maintain the positive reputation the McGrath family has for helping those who are most in need. He also deals in the buying and selling of mystical artifacts, though these are almost exclusively through black market trades.
Eddy's father is currently very ill and bedridden, seemingly from a sort of magickal poisoning. He and Charlie are also working to discover who might be causing this. Current leads point to The Red Hand, as they also deal in moving magickal artifacts.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Eddy's family has spent years cleaning up the streets of South Soffit, with his father acting as a bit of a Robin Hood-esque character to the people in this very poor district of Newfaire.
When Eddy was 16, his family life all but imploded as a result of a smear article written by Pierce Hunter. The article alleged that his father was having an affair with Natalie Blanc, a well-known owner of the Delicate Touch brothel in Red Lamp. His mother was devastated, and this lie nearly tore their family apart. As it turned out, Natalie Blanc is actually Declan McGrath's half-sister, making her Eddy's aunt. Their grandfather had had a wandering eye in his youth.

Relationships
History
The McGrath twins are extremely close, but as different as night and day. Currently their father is deadly sick and while he is bedridden the twins govern on his behalf. Eddy handles the PR/political/legal side of the business while Charlie handles all the underground operations.
Shared Secrets
Charlie and Eddy are secretly poisoning their father to take over the family business together. They believe their father is holding them back and that they could do so much more good for the people of South Soffit. Once they can “prove” that The Red Hand is poisoning their father, they’ll be able to “heal” him and go to war.
History
Eddy McGrath only came to know Beatrice within the past year. He has bought a handful of artifacts from her, including a Grim Radio, which never made it to his hands and is now in the possession of Candela Obscura. Beatrice sees Eddy as a very small fish in an exceedingly large ocean, and considers him a complete amateur in the game of black market deals.
Relationship Reasoning
Their relationship is purely business. She is a broker of rare magickal artifacts, and he is a buyer.
