History ComicBook / GreenManor

* BlackSheep: Curiously, it's the WhiteSheep who became a BlackSheep rather than see his family fall apart.

* TrickedToDeath: The Lance of Longinus (or the spearhead, rather) has a coded message engraved on it that gives a recipe for an elixir of invulnerability. The alchemist who wrote it down says that it is destined to fall into the hands of a world conqueror, but as he himself is too old for it, he leaves the lance and the recipe in the hands of one more suited for the task. [[spoiler:The elixir only confers a euphoric high on the drinker who ''thinks'' he's invincible, and quickly ends up trying to prove it (with fatal results) if he harbors such megalomania. The alchemist did this in the hopes of removing the kind of people with that level of ambition before they could get too dangerous, even centuries after his death.]]

* ComplexityAddiction: The twist behind "Voodoo Night". It appears that Lord Killian was murdered by his simple wife Elizabeth, who had the motive and was the only one with him at the time, but there's so many odd details that it doesn't fit, such as the chicken gibbets and the woman's message written in coal. After theorizing and theorizing, the gentlemen of the Green Manor conclude that it was voodoo from a spurned Haitian lover. [[spoiler:It turns out that Elizabeth did kill him, and the wives of the club protected her by adding those odd details, knowing that their husbands would look for the fascinating perfect crime instead of the obvious solution]].

* DarkSecret: That SmokyGentlemensClub is so full of respectable bluebloods and gentlemen, what do you mean it's fully of evil people?

->''"[[SpotOfTea A cup of tea?]] A drop of milk? [[BreadEggsMilkSquick A spoonful of poison?]] At first nothing would make very select club called Green Manor stand out from any other English club. Yet behind its thick walls, sunk into its deep chairs, hides the biggest bunch of con artists, bandits and murders that Queen Victoria's England has ever seen."''
