OK! So I won the last round chez [livejournal.com profile] ironed_orchid with my l33t LB skills and, as any fule noe, breaking the eternal chain of LB results in all kinds of dire consequences like not really getting 25 trillion Euros from the Libyan government (or BAE). Thus I get to host the next round.

In-depth directions for the game can be found here on [livejournal.com profile] kinetikatrue's page. It's laid out pretty nicely, so I suggest you go read and come back. But basically, the question you ask must be specific enough that I can answer confidently with a particular author or character (as in, "no, I'm not Elizabeth Bennett"). If I don't get the reference, you get to ask a more general question that can be answered with a yes or no, such as the person's sex, age, nationality, etc.

One question at a time, please. This means wait until I have answered the previous person's question before you post your own.

If you haven't played before please read through the LJ specific rules before you ask your question.

For this round, my name starts with "C".

I am a fictional character. I am English and of the 20th century. My creator is dead and was not female. I am a family man, eventually. I am not Charles Carruthers, Gordon Comstock, Gerard Crich or Dr. Cornelius.

[livejournal.com profile] coyotegestalt is very clever and successfully worked out that I am Guy Crouchback from Evelyn Waugh's Sword of Honour trilogy.

DO you run the family mine and and feel guilty over the drowning deaths of your brother and sister?

SO you are not Gerard Crich from Women in Love, then. I shall follow up -- Are you a family man?

Are you a family man?

Eventually!

Were you sent to a factory by your unkind stepfather?

This sounds like David Copperfield but I have already revealed that I am of the 20th century. If it's not DC, consider me baffled and ask a supplementary.

Did you concoct a conspiracy theory concerning the Knights Templar?

I thought everyone had one of those!

I don't know who you mean so ask a supp etc.

You know what? He was Italian, not English. Sod sodding sod.

(Causabon of Foucault's Pendulum, who doesn't seem to have a first name.)

I think I should forfeit my supplementary.

Amazing how difficult these complex ideas like "English" and "20th century" are proving.

One out of two... Causabon was a family man, eventually. Which is what made me think of him.

(You might have told me I was warm, as for the Lord Copper entry...)
