Sylvanus is a faun and former doctor who works as a butcher in Carnival Row.
History[]
Prior to moving to Carnival Row, Sylvanus worked as a doctor in Puyan. After moving to The Burgue, he could not find work as a doctor and instead resorted to working as a butcher,[2] along with his daughter, Callie.[1]
When Aisling Querelle was murdered, Rycroft Philostrate called in Sylvanus to perform the autopsy since Magistrate Flute refused to both the coroner because she was a faerie. Sylvanus' autopsy revealed that Aisling's liver had been removed when she was killed, and that she had been pregnant at least once.[2]
Behind the scenes[]
The character was only credited as "Faun Butcher" in the cast credits for "Aisling". The name comes from the episode's subtitles which identifies the character.
