I've been trying to come up with characters that may match CRDL's basis. We know that Cardin Winchester is based on Henry Beaufort, Bishop of Winchester (later Cardinal), a Medieval clergyman. Going back over Medieval themes, I could only come up with possibly King Arthur for Dove (I don't know why, but I associate King Arthur with Doves) and Robin Hood for Russel (he wears green and his name was originally going to be Russel Crow... Russell Crowe being the actor to portray Robin Hood in 2010). I'm so sure of Russel's basis... but Dove is iffy. Difficult. Worse than Dove, Sky is almost impossible. We don't even know with any certainty what his symbol is supposed to be. Okay, so if the other three are represented by a cardinal, a thrush, and a dove, then his symbol must be a lark. But what does that really mean?
