* MalignedMixedMarriage: Balthazar Smith-Rhodes was exiled from [[TheApartheidEra Rimwards Howondaland]] not for being a rogue and a confidence trickster, but for repeatedly breaking the Racial Separation Acts. He has left one officially unacknowledged mixed-race member of the Smith-Rhodes family behind him, to further embarrass the whole family. Based in [[UsefulNotes/TheNetherlands Sto Kerrig]], he further appalls his countrymen by setting up home with Sissie, who claims to be a Zulu Princess. Neither they nor their more liberally minded Sto Kerrigian hosts give a damn about this, but expat [[UsefulNotes/SouthAfrica White Howondalandians]] have their eyebrows more than raised.
