Señor Esparza

Señor Esparza is Vog Mur's representative at the Grand Market. He provides sales and support for the Clone Pits. If you want someone brought back from the dead from even a small portion of themselves, if you want a duplicate, no questions asked, you just need 1000 gold and a pound of flesh (literally) and you, too, can have a clone. Certain restrictions apply.

Use of the clone pits is guaranteed to produce a clone, but often (1-2 in 6), the cloning process has… complications. Such complications are not warranteed against. You pay your money, you takes your chances.

Señor Esparza is bald, with exaggeratedly broad shoulders, beady eyes, an upturned nose, and a constant smile. Any familiar with the Vat Men will know that Esparza is one of these synthetic creatures. However, unlike the majority of the Vat Men, Esparza talks, and does so quite eloquently. This does not diminish the feeling of wrongness he gives off — rather, it seems to enhance it. As does his dress. He wears a crisp, white linen shirt, a narrow black tie, a brocade waistcoat and expensive black breeches and jacket. A black top hat tops his bald head, and black lizard-skin shoes cover his feet, topped by white spats. He carries a silver-tipped cane at all times, and carries a pocket watch on a silver chain.
