What happened to you, Roy? You used to be the best
ROY STEEL
In the language of English, two words are used to describe grit, determination and style: Roy Steel. A man'’s man and a ladies man, Roy made a name for himself in the mid 1960s as a hard bittern explorer, ready to look the worst Mother Nature had to offer in the eye and hit it in the face.
But the years of wealth and fame have not been kind to Roy. Never able to shake the shame of only being the world’'s second greatest big game hunter, in this year of 1971, the name of Roy Steel conjures an image of a life ruled by excess. Leaving behind a trail of jilted ladies, angry barmen and irate creditors, it was recently reported that Steel had been seen in filthy bars on the African continent, fighting bears for coins.
Luckily for Roy, salvation comes in the form of the mysterious Sir Maxwell House and his even more mysterious-er proposition: join the Monster Hunters and fight the greatest threats Britain has ever faced...

LORRIMER CHESTERFIELD
Born in a bunker during the war, Chesterfield was raised by his parents Chester and Margaret, an historian and science teacher respectively. On the discovery that the war was over, the family eventually left the bunker in 1957. By this time Chesterfield had a vast knowledge of science and history, having memorised every tome in the impressive library the family had brought down with them to survive the war.
He was immediately accepted into London University and now, in 1971, is the leading Professor of Occult Studies there. There is not a legend, myth, fable, superstition or folk tale that he has not the most intimate of knowledge.
And so he was an obvious choice for the enigmatic Sir Maxwell House when putting together The Monster Hunters. After turning the offer down on several occasions, it was the death of his wife at the hand of an ancient Egyptian God inside a pyramid in Giza that eventually convinced him to join the hunt.
The Laws of science have a higher master!
