Alexander Saburov

Alexander Saburov (Александр Сабуров) is the husband of Katerina Saburova and is in charge of the Town's legal matters and criminal prosecution.

Description
A quiet, intelligent man who prefers to listen rather than speak; he analyzes all interactions. He is an honest and stern ruler. Saburov is described as having a special kind of heroism, owing to his sense of incorruptible justice. He believes that any criminal must be punished fully and he does not let his own personal feelings affect his rulings or punishments.

While he is a rationalist, he shows a strong belief in the mystic powers of his wife. He has great respect for Katerina and consults her on all important matters. He takes her prophecies very seriously, and often forms opinion based on her visions.

Past
Saburov first gained renown and respect after a large fire in the Tanner's district: he broke into burning houses, armed with nothing but a gaff, and extinguished the flames. He did not personally tell anyone about the incident—it became known by accident, along with his notoriety.
