Jeronimo
Jeronimo is one of The Ten in The Confusion. His background story is mostly told in the opening chapter. He is also known as the infamous "El Desamparado," which means "Forsaken by God." He's a middle-aged, somewhat twitchy, vile but high-born Spaniard. His tale is what sets the Kohan's plan into action.
