The Aspiring Survivor

A normal, respectable solicitor… or that’s what he tells people. Five years ago, Renfield was institutionalised, and only made it out thanks to his dear friend Jonathan Harker. He’s what people in the 1930s call an ‘extreme transvestite’: someone who’s had cutting-edge surgery to live as a man. Nowadays we'd call him a transgender man.

Always just one step ahead of a world that wants him gone. Out of fear or fury, he never stops running. There must be a place for him somewhere. He will reach it someday. Could it be…?
