Butler NPCs (& other staff of Staunton Hall)

Thanks to the latest headcanon worldbuilding (shoutout to @therapardalis for the AMAZING plot twist ideas! And everyone else who participated in the poll!) we're getting 2 new butler NPCs of the Staunton household:

Dudson - 50s. The Staunton Hall Butler, & Edmund's longtime butler, serving the house for decades. Very proper. He runs the estate like a Swiss watch, and knows more about all the goings on of Staunton Hall than many suspect (and already he knows everything going on upstairs & downstairs). He is very loyal to Edmund and very much in on Edmund’s double-life.

Quinn - late 20s. The Staunton Hall Under-Butler. Quiet, discreet, sometimes inscrutable. He started a few years before Edmund passed away. After suspecting that Dudson is possibly working for Grimsby, Baroness discreetly distances herself from him by diverting all Dudson's focus to everything involved with running Staunton Hall, while her personal errands and operations she delegates to Quinn. Quinn has so far proved reliable.

Bonus! Other Household Staff NPCs:

Mrs. Kitts - 50s. Housekeeper. Like Dudson, she’s been running Staunton Hall long before Edmund inherited it and Priscilla became the lady of the manor.

Pendleton - 30s. Porter. Guards the entrance gates & ensures the security of the property.

Harvey - late 40s. Stablemaster. Admires the Baroness and takes good care of the horses.

Stanley - 40s. Gardener. Was also staffed at Staunton Hall before Edmund inherited it.

Mrs. Saxon - early 40s. Head Cook. 100% inspired by Mrs Crocombe! xD

Miss Carter - 20s. Lady’s Maid. Came to Staunton Hall after her former Lady of Old Money passed away from heart attack. She keeps quiet and does her job well, but tends to gossip & hasn't proved to be the most trustworthy.

Burleigh, Barden, Whitworth, & Rudyard - various ages. Footmen. Probable at least one of them is in on Edmund's double-life.

Additional currently nameless staff:

Edmund's former Valet (I guess he now attends to any male guests visiting Staunton Hall?)

Kitchen Staff

Housemaids & Scullery maids

Stablehands

Groundskeepers

Hallboy

Carriage Driver

Unexpectedly, there is a knock at the door.

In New Horizons, if the game can't load an NPC due to their referenced model name being invalid, or for other reasons, the game will instead load a naked, unnamed Bob in their place as a failsafe. This was likely a dummy NPC used for testing reasons.

so I played through Origins again and there's this middle-aged man 🫣

Amrynn the Hero of Ferelden will smooch him, so help me God

why did they do him so fucking dirty in Trespasser anyway lol 😭 I'm half convinced he was originally meant to be an entirely different character and then last minute they were like, 'hey let's make him Teagan instead' but didn't change anything about his design. But it IS really funny when your Inquisitor rides up to the exalted council and looks up at him and he's just mean mugging the FUCK out of you
