 The popular nickname for a mysterious serial killer currently at large in [[Vesper Ridge]]. Their identity and motive are both unknown, but the pattern of their killings seems to target mages as well as individuals in positions of authority. So far, the [[constabulary]] has been completely foiled in its attempts to catch this killer. The city’s newspapers, especially the popular [[Forum Square Gazette]], report on the Bloody Butterfly’s rampage in lurid detail.
 
-The Butterfly’s most recent public appearance was especially dramatic, involving the murders of half a dozen constables and a [[municipal arcane scrivener]], as well as extensive fire damage to the [[Vesper Ridge Customs and Notary Bureau River Gates Branch Municipal Office]]. Eyewitness accounts describe this mysterious figure as “like a walking ghost” and apparently faceless or somehow invisible beneath their (or its?) black veil.

 title: The Clocktower

-The most famous and most enigmatic structure in the city of [[Vesper Ridge]]. Far taller than any of the [[Velvet Ward]]’s mansion spires or the [[Foundry Ward]]’s smokestacks, it looms over them all from the exact center of the [[Tower Ward]], the exact center of the entire city. Its architect is unknown, its date of construction is unknown, and its function is unknown. Ostensibly it was built to keep track of time, and intricate systems of cogs and gears are visible behind its clock faces, but the clock never ticks. There are no visible entrances to the building, and no blueprints from its construction have ever been found. In fact, no written documents that mention the Clocktower seem to exist, anywhere. Stranger still, anyone who attempts to describe the Clocktower in writing, or portray its image on a visual medium, soon finds their work lost, the document inevitably vanishing into thin air the moment it leaves their sight.

+Very recently, the Clocktower stirred to life for the first time in living memory, the hour hand ticking from 12 o’clock noon directly to 1 PM. This inexplicable motion was accompanied by the cacophonous clanging of bells, presumably originating from a belfry hidden within the tower itself. Some [[Vesperite|Vesperites]] report having experienced headaches and strange visions as they watched the clock tick.
