Egbert is a young English boy with perpetually scruffy hair and a slightly excitable personality. He was born in the City of Canterbury, where he had lived his whole life before coming to the covenant.

Egbert always enjoyed exploring the city, finding the hidden places of the city, dodging its angry occupants and peeking where he wasn't supposed to.

Egbert is a very curious child, wanting to know as much as he can about anything that takes his interest.
