Man In Gold

Steven Criddleton is the current Man In Gold.
He is a direct descendant of John Criddleton, the first Man In Gold. His artifact is the Spear of Criddleton. When not performing other Colormen business, he fulfills the role that is traditionally left to the Man in Gold: he is the Keeper of the Archives in the Great Hall of the Colormen. Because of the work involved, his quarters are separate from the rest of the Colormen, being directly attached to the Archives so that he does not have to travel far to do his work. 
Several years before the start of 3WSR, he was happily married with a son named Percy, but the Man In Black killed his wife and abducted his son, resulting in a deep-seated hatred and mistrust, even though Man In Black has been purified of evil and is attempting to atone for his sins. Percy went on to become Percy Silver.
He is 5'7", 160 lbs, 47 years old and has blonde hair/blue eyes. When on duty as an archivist, he wears glasses because "they make me look clever" and gloves, so the oils from his hands don't damage the books. He recently entered a relationship with the Woman In Silver.
