Personality[]
Hembry is anxious and skittish, perhaps heightened by his experience with The Watcher in the Wings.[1]
Background[]
When his contract ended he was not given a new one but was instead let go. Although it was against the rules, he kept some of the catalogues. It was in one of these catalogues that he discovered the Watcher in the Wings and draw the prayer marks. He was promised an never ending show, and the identity of The Man With Many Faces.[1]
The Watcher in the Wings required feeding, and tragedies were satisfying. It is through this that Hembry kills his sister, who only wanted to help him.[1]
