Roberta Sweeton

Roberta Sweeton is a ghoul lord and member of the crew of the ship New Hope. On voyages, she poses as a nondescript woman traveling alone. She is the leader of a clan of nine ghouls on the Island of Evergreen.

Formerly a resident of Port-a-Lucine and then Falkovnia, Sweeton was discovered by Carl Houghton, who arranged a profitable (if unholy) partnership between his crew and her ghouls. His crew would get the possessions of their victims, and Sweeton's ghouls would receive the flesh of their victims.

Sweeton formerly worked with a doppelganger named Vikedo who had a similar operation of rob-and-kill with Sweeton as Houghton currently has with her. Although Vikedo was later killed, he left Sweeton a special hat of disguise that allows her to adopt the guise of the living and also mask her unnatural smell.
