Devonshire the Sableye is the questionable leader of the Rogues. Quiet and ominous, he does little of the gruntwork needed to further his yet unknown goals, trusting the direction of his partner Gunpowder.

Background

Pre-Guild

The Beginning

Not much is known about Devonshire. Repeated attempts to contact him for interviews are nearly always met with rejection. Kathy managed to secure one once, but it did not end well.

Devonshire's home is somewhat of a mystery, as no one has ever claimed to see where he retires for the night. His first date of residence within Tao Village is unknown as well; he's been there as long as anyone can remember.

Tao Village

As long as anyone can remember, Devonshire has owned and operated a building with the business name of "Devonshire Law Firm". This building has, for the longest time, appeared to be abandoned and closed for business. Devonshire insists that this is not the case and will gladly accept new clients who desire any form of legal counseling. It is no surprise how he manages to stay in business with the huge market he monopolizes. Recently, he has often been seen with a strange Cubone, who he claims to have a great fondness for.

However, through recent developments, it has been discovered that Devonshire had worked closely with Palette in order to find out about a Zoroark who regularly vandalized Tao Village. Palette was eventually taken out of that line of work temporarily with Pal's coercion.

Missions

Mission 1

Devonshire was absent for the duration of Mission 1. He claims he was attempting to quell disputes some of his guild members had been having with some of the members of the Rescuer's guild. The threat of Devonshire's imminent presence is usually enough to stifle any quarrel, so one wonders what it could have been!

Mission 2

Devonshire's involvement with Mission 2 was lacking, at best. He ordered among other things the safe return of his stamp, which he normally uses to prove authenticity of any letter allegedly coming from him. The recovery of this item was extremely important, as the Slasher Gang could have easily caused political turmoil with it.

Mission 3

Deeming this mission important enough to require his full attention, Devonshire headed to Monochrome Tower with some (un)lucky Rogue Teams in an effort to use the mysterious stone he possessed for... awakening a dragon. He failed and fled the tower in a rage, leaving the teams behind to escape for themselves.

Event 3

Upon returning to Tao Village, Devonshire was confronted for PK's stand being destroyed, as all eye-witness testimony pointed to it being his doing. PK eventually realized it was likely a Zoroark and accused Palette of the crime. Being an ex-Rogue, Devonshire agreed to take care of her and make sure she was gone from Tao Village.

During this time, he also managed to procure some of the medicine for Gunpowder before his partner got too ill. At some point during this time, Devonshire went on a walk with Chex, who was on his way to secure Slasher's body for The Boneyard. Chex's foster mother, Jill, recognized Devonshire from something outside of his knowledge and then talked with him about Tivoli and the Draconicello.

Mission 4

Devonshire left ahead of his teams to scout in the Prismatic Jungle to see what awaited them. During this mission he set restrictions on the teams allowed to participate, trying to ensure that the mission would go better than the previous one had. No Dragon-types were allowed to accompany him, nor were inexperienced teams.

Mission 5

Devonshire was seen talking with Pal and (thought to be deceased) Palette about a mysterious agent, whom he thought was a dead end. Following another one of his ghostly fits, he expected the safety tunnel to be used by all of the villagers of Tao Village to run away somewhere.

Upon coming back to see Sorbet's destruction, informs every villager of the location of his safety underground tunnels, and to evacuate the village while Gunpowder and Dmitri go off to divert Sorbet away from Tao Village and into the Creeping Forest.

Mission 6

It turned out that Devonshire's secret tunnel under the Rogue's Guild led to Lexy's library in Castle Draclugia. Devonshire reunited with Merlot, realising that he had once been her childhood friend, a Marowak named The Captain. He had to go back to Tao Village despite Merlot's protests, claiming it wouldn't be safe for him to stay.

Devonshire and Gunpowder return to the Rogue's base. Devonshire finds that the Draconicello has been stolen, and he has a few possible leads on the culprit. Devonshire expresses a feeling that "time is running out". He is excited at his sudden memories of Merlot, after so many years of few memories of his former life. Devonshire also discusses bluegill's recent visit to Gunpowder, confirming that there is indeed something occurring overseas where PK's parents are. Devonshire also makes a point to mention his fondness for Gunpowder's simple honesty and competence, since he feels time is running out. He wants to make sure Gunpowder knows that his work and manner has been appreciated.

Anana arrives at the Rogue's guild, just having left the Merchant's hut after her fight with PK. She offers a large financial donation to the Rogues. Devonshire refuses the offer, but does reminisce about Grand KecMicle, Anana's great great grandfather. Devonshire mentions that he knew Grand Kec. He is referring to visiting the past after Jasmine'sjasmine accidental time-travel explosion.

(event 6 devonshire reworked pks documents to remove shroomsworth from tao village merchant docs, and then went to visit lexy and caldera to try to figure out things about his past and helping him out in regards to that. during their talk, lexy goes to fetch information on a specific pokemon, but then devonshire and caldera disappear when jasmine explodes. devonshire ends up with rescuers near shade and makes them all go after her, which they succeed at. they go to monochrome tower to get their bearings, and end up waiting around and not finding anyone. so then dev goes to where tao ought to be, esp since he doesnt feel any sort of nightmarey stuff like normal, and ends up finding pk, mike, and jasmine in a hidden illusory village the New Moon Clan live at. he could find it without problems, unlike pk and mike who had to be led there. jasmine gets better and they go to old tao where dev reocgnizes micle and says that micle once let him stay in tao. he ends up warning micle later not to use the ponchos, which micle ignores. he also says he needs to visit somewhere now that he knows he can freely roam.
