The Characters
Dr. Norman Trevelyan, D.D., L.L.D., Ph.D., etc. is Professor of Religious Archaelogy at New College, Edinburgh. He has published books detailing his excavations at Samaria, Jerusalem, Babylon, Nineveh, and other places. In addition to these he has published on such widespread topics as Biblical criminology, the psychology of conspiracy theory, and the religious symbolism of the Hittites. He is married with eight children, and is an elder at Free St. George's. Dr. Trevelyan was born in Mumbai (Bombay), the son of an English father and an Indian mother. He is a crack-shot, an expect swordsman, a horseman of considerable skill and a licenced pilot. Some have compared him to Indiana Jones, a comparison he publically laughs at and privately enjoys. He lives in Edinburgh's New Town when he is not out digging things up.
Dr. Lilian P. Barton, Ph.D.,M.A., etc. is Professor of Symbology at St. Luke's college, Wymondham. Born in the United States, Dr. Barton has accompanied Dr. Trevelyan on many expeditions, and is a crack-shot herself. In fact she has many surprising accomplishments. Dr. Barton is unmarried, blonde and attractive. She has written two books on the Knights Templars, one on the Holy Grail, and one on the symbology of the Catholic Apostolic Church. She also reads widely in other disciplines. Her voice has been described as 'custardy' by some of her students. Apparently that is a compliment.
Rev. Sir Richard Arcos is pastor of the Mount Zion Free Grace Baptist Church, Mount Arcos, California. He is also owner of the Mount Arcos studio, and of Arcos Industries (notable for not actually making anything except movies). A prolific writer of film scripts he lives in a sprawling mansion in the Hollywood Hills. He has written a number of books, most notoriously a book on the Calvinist/Arminian controversy entitled A Whip for Free-Willers, which has been banned by every Christian Bookstore in the world, except the one attatched to his church. Sir Richard Arcos claims to be descended from the last Imperial line of Constantinople. Sir Richard Arcos is married, with seven children and four cats. He has no degrees.
Rev. Dr. James Rainy, D.D. is pastor of the Glenshilloch United Free Church. A former moderator of the United Free Church of Scotland, Dr. Rainy trained fror the ministry at New College, Edinburgh. He has written widely on textual criticism and the reliability of scripture, most recently in his book Jesus Said It! in which he defends the reliability of the gospel texts. Dr. Rainy is a widower with one daughter.
