Notes 

• Lionel is a guardsman working out Mulholland Station in a time of steam trains and 'Blessed Victoria' across the sea. Despite the gilded age, shadows of the monstrous 'Red Death' seem to hang across the known world. It is believed that forces of good are beleaguered by the 'Dark Powers' who allow the Red Death to terrorize and corrupt people. Lionel focuses on his main role of protecting the station as part of local gendarmerie.
• Is drawn into the strange happenings that seem to plague the world when he finds a woman named Betty Elm unconscious near the train station. When she awakens, she gives her name, saying she comes from 'Hungry Horse where the Lumberjacks Work' and that she had just arrived in the big city when she was attacked near a local tavern by a monster lurking behind the building.
• Lionel's weapon of choice: A .30 smokeless bolt action backed by a six-shot army revolver and his officer's arming sword.
