	'''Mr Stratford''' (first name unknown) was a homicidal maniac and all-round nut job in the employ of [[Gravid Rust]], who murdered at least sixteen people and an unknown number of goblins, including the goblin woman whose murder set off the events of ''[[Snuff]]''. He was young, with mousy hair and no scars that show--as generic-looking as [[Moist von Lipwig]], in fact, except when he got angry enough for the beast inside to show through. Good with a slingshot, but more often seen wielding a machete or a nasty-looking assortment of small knives. He didn't like water, and wouldn't get on a boat if he could help it.
