Edward Fanshawe

Sir Edward was an inventor of clockwork machines. He created a variety of things, including clockwork unicorns. He created Dove as a partner, designing her primarily for sex.

When Honoré Lechasseur and Emily Blandish arrived at his estate, Dove began to develop free will, and left with them. Edward followed them, unleashing his attack dogs on a nearby village that harboured them. He found them in London, in a brothel where Dove was in the company of Sir Richard. Edward killed Richard out of jealousy and returned home.

Dove, wanting to confront her creator, returned to the estate and told him how she had developed as a person and no longer wanted the life she had been created for. Edward tried to threaten her after her windup key was lost, but Dove had outgrown the need for it and left. (PROSE: The Clockwork Woman)
