About
My name is Lord William Daft. I come from a long line of philanderers which can be traced back to the Norman Conquest.
My forbears and I have loyally simpered at the feet of all the good Kings and Queens of England and for our trouble we have been rightfully ennobled.
I spend my time looking after a rather large country estate where I like nothing better than increasing the rents for my tenant farmers and patronising common folk.
I am an active member of the House of Lords although I can barely remember any of the debates as they are rather inconveniently timed to take place after a satisfyingly long liquid luncheon at The Club.
In short, without the nobility of the English aristocracy, this world would be a savage place.
