Patch is a young and energetic page who serves the older, more powerful figures in the court, often finding himself in the service of Doctor Dee. Easily identifiable by his red, curly hair, he is a constant, though minor, presence in and around the Senate. His primary role is one of service, as he is consistently employed for tasks requiring quick movement, fetching documents, running messages, and generally assisting the senators with errands that keep the mechanisms turning.
He represents the ever-present, tireless youth essential to the operations of the complex Kashalite society.
