Description of Randolph Carter:

A melancholy celebrated author and amateur occultist, Carter is a quiet contemplative dreamer with a sensitive disposition, prone to fainting during times of emotional stress. He was probably born around 1874 and grew up in and around Boston. At the age of nine, he underwent a mysterious experience at his great-uncle Christopher's farm and thereafter exhibited a gift of prophecy. He is the descendant of Sir Randolph Carter, who had studied magic during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I of England. Carter served in the French Foreign Legion during the First World War, and was badly wounded in fighting near Belloy-en-Santerre in 1916.
