Alexander Hamilkitten

Erin Purr

Jameson is the Chief Morale Officer at Copper Widow. Any similarity between his name and a popular brand of Irish whiskey are (probably) coincidental. Alex and Erin are brother and sister in the role of not-so-supportive support staff. Mostly they seem to sit around looking at us like we’re non compos mentis.
