[[quoteright:256:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/queen_manga_9204.png]]
->''"ALLLBEERTT!! I wish you were here today too!!!"''
The Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and the Empress of India. As her Watchdog, Ciel does work concerning the underground society for her.
------
* AdaptationalVillainy: In the first anime, she was the one responsible for the Phantomhives' deaths, in conjunction with Ash, and was attempting to start a world war.
* AffectionateNickname: Enjoys calling Ciel "boy", much to his embarrassment.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: In the manga, Queen Victoria is a friendly, CoolOldLady who has a [[FriendToAllChildren soft spot towards children as "the future"]]. She also tends to knows more about anything than anyone, casually has shady men either assassinated or framed, and orders Ciel to abduct the scientist in charge of a German secret weapons program.
* BodyHorror: In the anime, she has bits of Albert's flesh ''merged with hers'', and it's ''still rotting.''
* CoolShades: In the manga, Queen Victoria is wearing sunglasses during her introduction.
* DynamicEntry: In the manga, Queen Victoria arrived at the curry cooking competition on horseback.
* ElCidPloy: At the end of the first anime season, the real Queen Victoria is dead, killed by Ash, but Arthur arranges for a double to stand in for her, with only a few people knowing the truth.
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: In the anime, when Queen Victoria makes her first public appearance for quite a while during the Curry Competition, several people in the audience comment that she seems particularly frail, not knowing about the FountainOfYouth situation because she keeps her veil down.
* TheFaceless: In the anime, Queen Victoria keeps her veil over her face in public to disguise her young appearance.
* FountainOfYouth: In the anime, Queen Victoria can turn into a young girl thanks to Ash.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter
* HistoricalInJoke: In the manga, Queen Victoria suffers the occasional fit of tears that can be only alleviated by her aide, John Brown, with a Prince Albert puppet.
* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: In the first anime, she was the real BigBad of the story.
* JustThinkOfThePotential:
** So there's someone out there who can make horrifying, flesh-eating zombies that only serious firepower can take out? Pretty scary. [[EvilIsNotAToy Let's try to recruit them!]]
** Little TykeBomb genius girl, able to make formulas for dangerous bioweapons and formidable medicine? Let's invite her for tea!
* TheMourningAfter: Like in real life, Victoria mourns her husband Albert dearly. It takes a sinister turn in the first anime.

[[folder:John Brown]]
!!John Brown
[[quoteright:152:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/KuroJohnBrownProfile_324.png]]
->"''I am done talking... but it seems the queen has something to say.''"
Queen Victoria's aide and a member of her Private Secretarial Officers. He often explains things on her behalf and works to cheer her up.
------
* AdaptedOut: He doesn't exist in the anime version due to being replaced by Ash.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: There's some hints at the possibility that he, like his anime counterpart Ash, isn't a regular human. Most notably, he keeps his eyes hidden like Undertaker did before the revelation that he's a Grim Reaper and John was able to travel from England to Germany in about a day while claiming he didn't ride on his horse for it.
* CoolShades: His eyes are always covered by sunglasses.
* HandPuppet: He has one modeled after Prince Albert, the queen's late husband. He uses this to comfort her whenever she's upset.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: There was a real John Brown in real life who tended the queen after Prince Albert died.
* NiceGuy: Comforts Victoria when she's upset, and is polite when dealing with Sebastian.
* TheQuietOne: Speaks when spoken to, when cheering up the queen, or when it's part of his current task.
* SatelliteCharacter: He's always seen at the side of Queen Victoria and there's next to no information about John himself even after over 100 chapters.

[[quoteright:165:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/charles_grey_film.png]]
->"''Wow! Double guns are so cool! But, I win at close combat.''"
A member of Queen Victoria's Private Secretarial Officers, as well as her butler. He and his partner Charles Phips are known as "Double Charles".
------
* AffablyEvil: His personality is quite cheerful and amicable, but is willing to manipulate others and murder in cold-blood, if that is what the queen desires.
* AllWorkVsAllPlay: While Phips is all about his work, Grey is all about the play.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: His combat skills are a bit beyond standard mortal ken. He also has a few [[BattleButler characteristics]] in common with Ash from the anime.
* BattleButler: He's one of the queen's butlers and a deadly swordsman.
* BigEater: In the Murder Mystery arc, Sebastian left enough food for three days ready, but it ran out in less than a day because Grey ate it all.
* TheButlerDidIt: [[spoiler:The true culprit of the Murder Manor arc was none other than the queen's butler.]]
* CuteAndPsycho: He's ''very'' pleased about beating Ciel at anything.
* DynamicEntry: In his introduction, he bursts into the Phantomhive kitchen and attacks Bard and Mey-Rin for the heck of it.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: He's most likely based on Sir Charles Grey, who was a private secretary for Prince Albert and Queen Victoria.
* LickingTheBlade: The cover of volume 11 features Grey licking the blade of his own sword.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: His hairstyle has a rat tail extending to the middle of his back, because long hair in this {{Bishonen}} makes him more beautiful.
* MeaningfulName: His name (Grey) fits the color of his eyes and hair.
* PsychoForHire: Stabbing people is one of his favorite things to do. Queen Victoria seems to keep him as her butler in case she wants someone dead.
* PsychopathicManchild: The guy may be dangerous as heck, but he's also prone to childlike excitement when things go his way.
* RedOniBlueOni: The violent, more energetic Red Oni to Phips' cool-headed, more peaceful Blue Oni.
* TraitorShot: Lots of them during the Murder Mystery. As the saying goes: "Never trust the Earl Grey, only the tea is good".
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: He has white hair and despite not acting like it, he's a dangerous guy.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Badass with a sword, but terrified of ghosts and snakes.

[[quoteright:135:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/charles_phips_film.png]]
->"''All that matters is her majesty the queen's will.''"
The other half of "Double Charles". He and his partner Charles Grey are the Queen's butlers.
------
* AllWorkVsAllPlay: While Grey plays, he works.
* BattleButler: Like Grey, he's one of the queen's butlers and bodyguards, although he's less prone to using violence than Grey.
* CulturedBadass: Knows how to sew, paint Easter eggs and plays a mean flute.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: He's most likely based on Sir Charles Beaumont Phipps, who assisted Sir Charles Grey as a private secretary to Queen Victoria.
* NiceGuy: Compared to Grey, he's a lot more polite and doesn't attack people for no good reason.
* RealMenWearPink: Surprisingly for such a big and serious man, he likes cute things and is good at sewing.
* RedOniBlueOni: The cool-headed, more peaceful Blue Oni to violent, more energetic Grey's Red Oni.
* TheStoic: Unlike Grey, his facial expression almost never changes.

!!Aleister Chamber
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TatsuhisaSuzuki (JP), Creator/ToddHaberkorn (EN)
!!!'''Live actors:''' Fujita Ray [2010]; Yoshihide Sasaki [2013-Current] (Musical}
[[quoteright:155:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/viscount_druitt_film.png]]
An English nobleman well-known for his fine tastes and parties held during the social season. Ciel's group infiltrates in one of his parties because he's suspected of being Jack the Ripper.
-------
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Of all the people to show interest, he ranks fairly high on Ciel's NoYay scale.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: How evil/dangerous ''is'' he? Selling girls into [[SexSlave sexual slavery]], sacrifice, etc, is not cool, but given how he [[RecurringExtra keeps popping up]] in connection to Ciel's cases, it's unclear just how deep his bastardry goes...
* BeautyIsBad: Has a lot of fangirls both in universe, but shows himself to be a crazy asshole in every appearance.
* CharacterExaggeration: So ''VERY'' much in the Musical. Enforced because the author AND director encouraged Hidedruitt to really let go [[DivergentCharacterEvolution regardless of the canon interpretation]], to be less graceful and more ecchi and disgusting. That said, everything about him; the flamboyancy, [[LaughingMad certain ]] [[AxCrazy craziness]], and his overall (implied) perversity could even be matched up with the over-the-top anime counterpart from season two.
* ChekhovsGunman: In the manga, he shows up very early on and later comes back as a villain again in the Zombie-Titanic arc. Later his family connection to Edgar Redmond turns out to be important.
* ClassyCravat: He wears elegant suits with a cravat at the neck.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: His behavior is quite ''eccentric'', to put it mildly. Ciel ouright calls him certifiable in Season 2, if his ridiculously over-the-top descriptions of food and flamboyant behaviour didn't give that impression already.
* CombatCommentator: In Episode 7 of the 2nd season.
* DepravedBisexual: He's as flamboyant as you get and flirts with Ciel (both in and out of [[DisguisedInDrag drag]]), and ''[[TheCasanova loves]]'' the ladies. Considering Eric, and the very historical figure he's based on, he probably doesn't second glance men at ALL.
* DiminishingVillainThreat: More so in the anime than in the manga, though he's not much of a threat in both canons. In the anime, he goes from being a shady prostitution dealer to rather ridiculous, riddled comic relief. In the manga, his involvement in illegal affairs remains intact, as demonstrated by being a member of 'the Phoenix', a shady medical cult.
* HandsomeLech: It's said he'll put his hand on any attractive lady with no concerns for her age, which is proven when he makes lascivious advances at Ciel when the boy is DisguisedInDrag. As for the Viscount's character, the only nice thing about him is that he's handsome.
* KarmaHoudini: While he was arrested for what he was doing during the Jack The Ripper arc he was ultimately released and hasn't been arrested again since. Ciel and Sebastian speculate this is due to Aleister's status as a noble along with his wealth.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's incredibly pompous and obnoxious.
* LargeHam: He's one of the most flamboyant characters in the series and that's saying something.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: He's a beautiful man with shoulder-length hair.
* TheNicknamer: He calls every woman he finds attractive a "Robin". Which becomes a touch creepy when he calls ''Ciel'' one.
* PiratesWhoDontDoAnything: Has a medical degree, but never does anything... er, medical.
* RunningGag: Whenever he sees or tastes something he enjoys, he'll always make at least one reference to the "Lady Robin" who captured his heart that time at his party. And Ciel just happens to be nearby every time he does...
* SissyVillain: He has the personality certainly but not much in terms of looks.
* VillainousCrush: Aleister Chamber engages in black magic and sells girls as sex slaves. When Ciel was DisguisedInDrag Aleister demonstrated attraction towards him. And when Ciel was dressed as usual Aleister [[HoYay still hit on him]].

[[quoteright:290:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/290px-abberline_8857.png]]
The chief inspector of Scotland Yard. He works under Arthur Randall.
-----
* DeathByAdaptation: He's killed by Lau in the first anime adaptation. In the manga, he's still kicking around, and when the anime adapts the Circus storyline, he's still in his original role.
* HeroicSacrifice: In the anime's first season, he's impaled by Lau when trying to protect Ciel.
* HiddenDepths: He and another officer also displayed a talent at ice sculpture, able to construct a very accurate, if [[OffWithHisHead weak necked]] sculpture of their boss. In the third episode of the Second Season's OVA specials, it's shown he's a staff member on Creator/A1Pictures's CG team.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Fred is based on Frederick George Abberline, Chief Inspector for the London Metropolitan Police and a prominent investigator in the real-life Jack the Ripper murders.
* MaliciousMisnaming: Ciel and Sebastian call him "Underline" and he knows they're doing it on purpose.
* NiceGuy: He's a very morally strong and good-hearted police officer who truly cares for the lives of the civilians. He's shown to be a pretty empathetic and reasonable man.
* {{Retirony}}: In the first anime, he mentions to a friend and Ciel his upcoming marriage and thoughts of parenthood. [[ADeathInTheLimeLight Nice knowing ya Fred.]]
* SecretKeeper: He's the only officer in Scotland Yard besides the commissioner that is aware of Ciel's identity as the Queen's Watchdog. [[spoiler:This is why he knows the Earl can't be Lord Sirius of the Blue Cult, but since he can't reveal the Queen's Watchdog identity to the public, he's still forced to arrest the Earl.]]
* SympathyForTheDevil: He feels sorry for the Earl Ciel because he's a child burdened with the job of the Queen's Watchdog at a young age. He's able to see Ciel's rants about being alone as trying to bury the loss of his parents, as Fred himself knows what it's like to be an orphan.

[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/black_butler_arthur_profile.jpg]]
->"''It's just a pretentious bit of writing done outside of my own specialty.''"
A poor oculist and struggling writer, who is invited to the Phantomhive manor in the Murder Mystery arc. He becomes the recorder of the strange and bizarre events that occur at the Phantomhive Manor. He's all but stated to be Creator/ArthurConanDoyle, though his full name is never revealed.
------
* BeenThereShapedHistory: Ciel and Sebastian explaining to him what really happened with the murders-[[BrokenMasquerade including Sebastian being a demon]]-is what lead him to continue writing.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Towards Ciel.
* BrokenMasquerade: Arthur is the only {{Muggle}} person to know Sebastian is a demon and live to ''not'' tell the tale.
* GenreSavvy: Being a mystery writer in his spare time, he's well-aware of certain relating tropes, and even learns some new ones during the course of the story.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: PlayedWith In the Murder Mystery Arc. He states, correctly, that Ciel isn't the murderer in spite of a lot of the circumstantial evidence against him. However he does so because it's his belief that Ciel has a good heart and wouldn't stoop to murder. Ciel's ordered the death of dozens of people, guilty and innocent alike, even before the arc began.
* ItWillNeverCatchOn: Arthur is positive that ''Literature/AStudyInScarlet'' won't be popular and isn't keen on writing the character again. Ciel and Sebastian change his mind.
* JustBetweenYouAndMe: Ciel and Sebastian reveal to Arthur not only the details of their scheme but also that Sebastian is a demon. They allow Arthur to go free... but not before warning him that if he ever tells a soul about their secret then Arthur will be killed. Oh, and they'll always be watching...
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: He has 10 siblings.
* NiceGuy: He's polite, gentle, if a little bit of a pushover. He was quite protective of Ciel, and was one of the only persons in the Murder Mystery arc who maintains his faith for the boy when the latter becomes a prime suspect for a murder.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. This is the manga's second Arthur, sharing a name with Arthur Randall, the Scotland Yard Commissioner.
* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: His dub voice is mainly English-accented, with the occasional random slip into Scottish (or rather, occasional random slip into what an American who has never heard a Scotsman speak thinks they sound like). Most evident with the word 'murder'.
* WriteWhatYouKnow: InUniverse, his experiences at the Phantomhive manor inspire many story elements he'd use in the next Sherlock Holmes books.
* YoungFutureFamousPeople: He's a young Arthur Conan Doyle. He's never called by his full name, but it's made ''extremely'' obvious.

* ElCidPloy: At the end of the first anime season, the real Queen Victoria is dead, killed by Ash, but Arthur arranges for a double to stand in for her, with only a few people knowing the truth.
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: In the anime, when Queen Victoria makes her first public appearance for quite a while during the Curry Competition, several people in the audience comment that she seems particularly frail, not knowing about the FountainOfYouth situation because she keeps her veil down.
* TheFaceless: In the anime, Queen Victoria keeps her veil over her face in public to disguise her young appearance.
* FountainOfYouth: In the anime, Queen Victoria can turn into a young girl thanks to Ash.

------
* AdaptedOut: He doesn't exist in the anime version due to being replaced by Ash.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: There's some hints at the possibility that he, like his anime counterpart Ash, isn't a regular human.

------
* AffablyEvil: His personality is quite cheerful and amicable, but is willing to manipulate others and murder in cold-blood, if that is what the queen desires.
* AllWorkVsAllPlay: While Phips is all about his work, Grey is all about the play.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: His combat skills are a bit beyond standard mortal ken. He also has a few [[BattleButler characteristics]] in common with Ash from the anime.
* BattleButler: He's one of the queen's butlers and a deadly swordsman.
* BigEater: In the Murder Mystery arc, Sebastian left enough food for three days ready, but it ran out in less than a day because Grey ate it all.

* HistoricalDomainCharacter: He's most likely based on Sir Charles Grey, who was a private secretary for Prince Albert and Queen Victoria.
* LickingTheBlade: The cover of volume 11 features Grey licking the blade of his own sword.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: His hairstyle has a rat tail extending to the middle of his back, because long hair in this {{Bishonen}} makes him more beautiful.
* MeaningfulName: His name (Grey) fits the color of his eyes and hair.
* PsychoForHire: Stabbing people is one of his favorite things to do. Queen Victoria seems to keep him as her butler in case she wants someone dead.

[[quoteright:155:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/viscount_druitt_film.png]]
An English nobleman well-known for his fine tastes and parties held during the social season. Ciel's group infiltrates in one of his parties because he's suspected of being Jack the Ripper.
-------
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Of all the people to show interest, he ranks fairly high on Ciel's NoYay scale.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: How evil/dangerous ''is'' he? Selling girls into [[SexSlave sexual slavery]], sacrifice, etc, is not cool, but given how he [[RecurringExtra keeps popping up]] in connection to Ciel's cases, it's unclear just how deep his bastardry goes...
* BeautyIsBad: Has a lot of fangirls both in universe, but shows himself to be a crazy asshole in every appearance.
* CharacterExaggeration: So ''VERY'' much in the Musical. Enforced because the author AND director encouraged Hidedruitt to really let go [[DivergentCharacterEvolution regardless of the canon interpretation]], to be less graceful and more ecchi and disgusting. That said, everything about him; the flamboyancy, [[LaughingMad certain ]] [[AxCrazy craziness]], and his overall (implied) perversity could even be matched up with the over-the-top anime counterpart from season two.
* ChekhovsGunman: In the manga, he shows up very early on and later comes back as a villain again in the Zombie-Titanic arc. Later his family connection to Edgar Redmond turns out to be important.
* ClassyCravat: He wears elegant suits with a cravat at the neck.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: His behavior is quite ''eccentric'', to put it mildly. Ciel ouright calls him certifiable in Season 2, if his ridiculously over-the-top descriptions of food and flamboyant behaviour didn't give that impression already.
* CombatCommentator: In Episode 7 of the 2nd season.
* DepravedBisexual: He's as flamboyant as you get and flirts with Ciel (both in and out of [[DisguisedInDrag drag]]), and ''[[TheCasanova loves]]'' the ladies. Considering Eric, and the very historical figure he's based on, he probably doesn't second glance men at ALL.
* DiminishingVillainThreat: More so in the anime than in the manga, though he's not much of a threat in both canons. In the anime, he goes from being a shady prostitution dealer to rather ridiculous, riddled comic relief. In the manga, his involvement in illegal affairs remains intact, as demonstrated by being a member of 'the Phoenix', a shady medical cult.
* HandsomeLech: It's said he'll put his hand on any attractive lady with no concerns for her age, which is proven when he makes lascivious advances at Ciel when the boy is DisguisedInDrag. As for the Viscount's character, the only nice thing about him is that he's handsome.
* KarmaHoudini: While he was arrested for what he was doing during the Jack The Ripper arc he was ultimately released and hasn't been arrested again since. Ciel and Sebastian speculate this is due to Aleister's status as a noble along with his wealth.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's incredibly pompous and obnoxious.
* LargeHam: He's one of the most flamboyant characters in the series and that's saying something.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: He's a beautiful man with shoulder-length hair.
* TheNicknamer: He calls every woman he finds attractive a "Robin". Which becomes a touch creepy when he calls ''Ciel'' one.
* PiratesWhoDontDoAnything: Has a medical degree, but never does anything... er, medical.
* RunningGag: Whenever he sees or tastes something he enjoys, he'll always make at least one reference to the "Lady Robin" who captured his heart that time at his party. And Ciel just happens to be nearby every time he does...
* SissyVillain: He has the personality certainly but not much in terms of looks.
* VillainousCrush: Aleister Chamber engages in black magic and sells girls as sex slaves. When Ciel was DisguisedInDrag Aleister demonstrated attraction towards him. And when Ciel was dressed as usual Aleister [[HoYay still hit on him]].

The chief inspector of Scotland Yard. He works under Arthur Randall.
-----
* DeathByAdaptation: He's killed by Lau in the first anime adaptation. In the manga, he's still kicking around, and when the anime adapts the Circus storyline, he's still in his original role.
* HeroicSacrifice: In the anime's first season, he's impaled by Lau when trying to protect Ciel.
* HiddenDepths: He and another officer also displayed a talent at ice sculpture, able to construct a very accurate, if [[OffWithHisHead weak necked]] sculpture of their boss. In the third episode of the Second Season's OVA specials, it's shown he's a staff member on Creator/A1Pictures's CG team.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Fred is based on Frederick George Abberline, Chief Inspector for the London Metropolitan Police and a prominent investigator in the real-life Jack the Ripper murders.
* MaliciousMisnaming: Ciel and Sebastian call him "Underline" and he knows they're doing it on purpose.
* NiceGuy: He's a very morally strong and good-hearted police officer who truly cares for the lives of the civilians. He's shown to be a pretty empathetic and reasonable man.
* {{Retirony}}: In the first anime, he mentions to a friend and Ciel his upcoming marriage and thoughts of parenthood. [[ADeathInTheLimeLight Nice knowing ya Fred.]]
* SecretKeeper: He's the only officer in Scotland Yard besides the commissioner that is aware of Ciel's identity as the Queen's Watchdog. [[spoiler:This is why he knows the Earl can't be Lord Sirius of the Blue Cult, but since he can't reveal the Queen's Watchdog identity to the public, he's still forced to arrest the Earl.]]
* SympathyForTheDevil: He feels sorry for the Earl Ciel because he's a child burdened with the job of the Queen's Watchdog at a young age. He's able to see Ciel's rants about being alone as trying to bury the loss of his parents, as Fred himself knows what it's like to be an orphan.

------
* BeenThereShapedHistory: Ciel and Sebastian explaining to him what really happened with the murders-[[BrokenMasquerade including Sebastian being a demon]]-is what lead him to continue writing.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Towards Ciel.
* BrokenMasquerade: Arthur is the only {{Muggle}} person to know Sebastian is a demon and live to ''not'' tell the tale.
* GenreSavvy: Being a mystery writer in his spare time, he's well-aware of certain relating tropes, and even learns some new ones during the course of the story.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: PlayedWith In the Murder Mystery Arc. He states, correctly, that Ciel isn't the murderer in spite of a lot of the circumstantial evidence against him. However he does so because it's his belief that Ciel has a good heart and wouldn't stoop to murder. Ciel's ordered the death of dozens of people, guilty and innocent alike, even before the arc began.
* ItWillNeverCatchOn: Arthur is positive that ''Literature/AStudyInScarlet'' won't be popular and isn't keen on writing the character again. Ciel and Sebastian change his mind.
* JustBetweenYouAndMe: Ciel and Sebastian reveal to Arthur not only the details of their scheme but also that Sebastian is a demon. They allow Arthur to go free... but not before warning him that if he ever tells a soul about their secret then Arthur will be killed. Oh, and they'll always be watching...
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: He has 10 siblings.
* NiceGuy: He's polite, gentle, if a little bit of a pushover. He was quite protective of Ciel, and was one of the only persons in the Murder Mystery arc who maintains his faith for the boy when the latter becomes a prime suspect for a murder.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. This is the manga's second Arthur, sharing a name with Arthur Randall, the Scotland Yard Commissioner.
* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: His dub voice is mainly English-accented, with the occasional random slip into Scottish (or rather, occasional random slip into what an American who has never heard a Scotsman speak thinks they sound like). Most evident with the word 'murder'.
* WriteWhatYouKnow: InUniverse, his experiences at the Phantomhive manor inspire many story elements he'd use in the next Sherlock Holmes books.
