Toby Kent

(David Dawson)

Toby is an upper-class dandy and a psychopath. Eton-educated, skittish, nervy, cruel and terrifying, he should be in an institution rather than working for Baba. Toby delights in the violence of his work, especially the bullying of all of Baba’s victims, including Luther.
