History[]
Background[]
Aldridge T. Abbington is the host of the show at the Théâtre Râleur in Saint Denis, who can be seen whenever the player visits the theatre. He is always the first and last to appear on-stage, as his job is to introduce the performers into the spotlight. Throughout his life, he claims to have met many people who have special talents, introducing them one by one as an act on stage.
One notable person he has met is Benjamin Lazarus, whom Abbington met when he was only 10, raising him, bathing him, and claiming to have shaved him head to toe.[1]
Abbington also claims to have traveled the world, most notably Italy and other European nations.
