William Wynn Westcott, primarily referred to as Westcott (ウェストコット Uesutokotto?), was a Magician and one of the Three Founders of the Golden Dawn.[1][2]
Appearance
In the vision shown to Kamijou Touma based on Aleister Crowley's past, Westcott wore a tailored suit with a necktie.[1]
Personality
Background
Abilities
Westcott's magical ability was said to be not all that great compared to the likes of Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers and Aleister Crowley, however he still controlled a powerful faction in the Golden Dawn as one of its Three Founders.[2]
This was in part due to possessing a form of quasi-immortality. He maintained this state by distorting the circulation of his life using the attraction of an extremely great being. When describing it, the recreated Mina Mathers omitted the exact details but mentioned Westcott's specialty in forging documents (having forged a letter from Anna Sprengel when creating the cabal to give it more prestige), his access to corpses as a coroner and how parchment was used to converse with demons and transfer souls. A red mass in the center of his chest apparently contained Westcott's soul. Though he never had doubts in it, this quasi-immortality didn't save him from death at the hands of Imagine Breaker.[2]
Westcott also had medical experience and capabilities as a coroner of Scotland Yard.[1][2]
