The Crippled Duke

The daemonic aspect of Vanity. The eternal subject of the cruelties of his master. The Crippled Duke always responds with bluster and consternation, his words and blows too slow to ever hit the Prince. The Duke is full of pride born of eons of tradition, a respect of decorum and a stiffness that make himself all the more ridiculous and easy to mock. But despite his absurdity, the Crippled Duke is a creature of barely-repressed wrath and humiliation.
