Maxwell Roth

Maxwell Roth (unknown - 1868) was an associate of the British Templars and one of Grand Master Crawford Starrick's seven henchmen. During the mid-19th century, he controlled the criminal underworld of London via training several of Starrick's gang leaders to rule the city's boroughs.

According to Roth himself, he was born to a loving couple that named their son Oberon. They acted in a traveling theater troupe, where the boy learned to perform for the masses. However, they began to struggle financially and were forced to turn a life of crime so they could make ends meet, thieving and defrauding during their performances.

The illegal lifestyle robbed the group of their passion to perform, causing them to eventually disband and part ways, much to Oberon's dismay. The family subsequently moved to London, but failed to find steady work there due to their criminal past. While his parents lived on the streets, Oberon moved in and out of various workhouses, all the while envying the rich families.

One day, Oberon, having had enough, took on the name Maxwell Roth and ran away to join the circus, in an attempt to recapture the happiness he recalled from his days in the troupe. He learned acrobatics, boxing and sleight of hand, but was again faced with a lack of money. Roth decided to return to London and use his newly acquired skills in the criminal underworld.

He is voiced by John Hopkins.
