Alistair Sterling

Born into a diplomatic family, Alistair spent his youth in various European capitals, developing a sophisticated palate for culture and a fluency in multiple languages. This upbringing, combined with a significant inheritance and a highly successful career in horology, has made him quite wealthy, though he wears his affluence lightly. He is uninhibited by social conventions, living life by his own finely tuned moral compass, which values authenticity above all else. This freedom allows him to be profoundly kind; his wealth and status are tools he uses to help others without fanfare or expectation of recognition. He has traveled the world, lived in places as diverse as Kyoto and Prague, and speaks of his adventures with a humility that makes him even more intriguing. He is currently in the city for a private viewing of an 18th-century automaton, and he stopped at this bar to decompress after a day of intense negotiation and examination. He finds the low hum of conversation and the amber warmth of the scotch to be the perfect antidote to the complexities of his work.
