Ambrose comes from a family with a strong tradition of public service. One relative has stood on the parish spire for two hundred and thirty years, facing whichever way the wind requires. The family speak of him with pride and do not, as a rule, mention the resemblance.

Ambrose himself is quieter than his tail suggests. He is booked for patient work: long mornings, slow light, anything that involves waiting for something to be lifted into place. His tail requires its own allowance on set and its own seat on trains. He has never asked for either. Both are always provided.
