Mental characteristics
Personal history
Miles Hygate is the son of a farmer from the interior of the Barony. He was listed with the Barony forces during the Cobal-Imesse War and found he was a much better soldier than he was a farmer. He remained a soldier after the war, serving with the City Watch for the next 15 years, advancing to the rank of City Constable. Then, when the former Briar died of a fever, Baron Brock am Ohnni appointed Miles the new Briar of Hotsloth.
Failures & Embarrassments
Miles has made every effort to break the hold that the Lovelies have on the City of Hotsloth, but has not been able to. He knows of their criminal association with the Canal House and is aware of the name of the gang's leader, Oswyn Lovely. His work to eliminate the crime and corruption from the streets is effecting the Lovelies financially, but he has not been able to break them completely... yet.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
With 15 years service in the City Watch, Miles is very familiar with the dark reputation that much of the City of Hotsloth has, and he has worked his entire career to stamp that element out of the city streets. He is actively working to eliminate the corruption and graft that has become systemic throughout the city. He has many friends and supporters amongst the law-abiding residents, and many enemies within the criminal elements of Waterside, Mudwash and Old Town.
