The Saboteur: Sean Devlin

Sean Devlin is a stranger in a strange land. An Irishman on the run, his past shrouded in mystery, Sean thought he’d found a happy home working as a mechanic with the Morini Racing team in France. Sean eventually earned a spot on the professional racing circuit, racing alongside the best drivers in the world. Then the War came, and Sean’s dreams of a life on the track were washed away in a storm of fire and blood. Sean never chose this war, but he couldn’t escape it either.

Sean was caught on the wrong side of the border when the shooting started. He lost his home and his best friend in the same night. That night he fled to Paris with a price on his head and the devil on his heels. He’d hoped to get away from the killing, but it was not to be. You see, Devlin’s the sort of man who doesn’t go lookin’ for trouble, but it always finds him, soon enough.

Before long, Sean fell in with the Resistance, and started in a new line o’ work. Killin’ Nazis is his trade, and Devlin’s a man who knows his tools. He’s traded in his wrench for a rifle, his engine block for a home-made bomb. If it shoots or goes “boom”, this Irishman knows how to use it. Some say Devlin has a natural gift for violence. Others whisper that he was raised in the work by his father back in Ireland. If Devlin knows the truth, he isn’t talking.

Sean’s war is a war in the shadows. A war fought by rebels, spies, and assassins. It’s true that Devlin never liked the idea creepin’ around in the dark or shootin’ a man in the back. He’d prefer a straight up fight, all things considered. But when you’ve got an army of Nazis, swarmin’ over the city like a plague of locusts, and Kraut spies on every street corner … the situation calls for that special brand of deviousness the Irish call “skullduggery.”

No one can say where Sean will be from one day to the next. The war brings him to all sorts of strange places. But chances are, you’ll find him on the rooftops of Paris, when the moon is full and the streets are quiet. You’ll see him clambering through the arches of Notre Dame like a spider in the rafters … stalking his prey… waiting for the right moment to strike.

To some, the Irishman’s come to the City of Lights a savior. For others, he’s the Angel of Death. But whether he’s friend or foe, Sean Devlin’s never a man to be taken lightly.
