The Man in Black

This no longer nameless mage, Wai Chi, has been a nuisance to the Fivefold Vigil since their arrival in Astoria. Suspected to be the source behind the various possessions warning the cabal to leave town & unknown whether or not he is behind the wards around Hotel Regina or else a rival seeking to claim the hotel for himself. He is the murderer of Forest Clement, having left his body in Twilight at the water front. He baited & lured Serafina & Rasayana into a confrontation in an alleyway and atop a building then vanished into Twilight where he summoned zombies to attack them in plain sight of many sleepers.

Wai Chi is a member of Sofia Warren's cabal & seems to be the loose cannon of their group. His companion has admitted that he prefers confrontations with body counts & he has admitted that he would love a public fight.
