Idris
Remembers your birthday, your dog's name and your coffee order.
Merchant — Counts coins, deals, favours.
In their own words
“Lovely to see you again. Have we met? We should have.”
“I'm sure we can sort this out over dinner.”
“Nobody leaves a room I'm in feeling worse.”
“Charmed, I'm sure. Have we met? We simply must.”— in Victorian London, 1888
Characters’ asides never contain clues. In a case, only their statements count as evidence.
Case record
Idris has stood in 15 lineups so far, as a innkeeper, a commercial traveller, a trade envoy, a duty-free clerk, a purser, a investor and more. Whether they were guilty is something you’ll have to prove for yourself.

Track record
In the 13 cases old enough to have a published walkthrough, Idris turned out to be a criminal 4 times and innocent 9 times. Roughly what you would expect by chance: a past record is never evidence in Clues & Culprits. Today’s and yesterday’s cases are left out so nothing is spoiled.
