His network of spies is frequently used by members of the Shadow Continental, particularly by members of the Dark Brotherhood and the Thieves Guild. His character is heavily inspired by The Bowery King, played by Laurence Fishburne.

Her role is inspired by the Elder (Said Taghmaoui) in John Wick Chapter 3, who sits above the High Table.
