Gracie asked Stuart Turton:

First off I wanted to say that Seven 1/2 Deaths is one of my all-time favorite books and one I’ve re-read countless times. It was also the inspiration for my homebrew Dungeons and Dragons campaign, and my friends had a blast trying to figure it out (with changes of course, since I’m still holding out hope that they’ll read the book!) Why did you choose the Plague Doctor costume for Aiden’s handler?

Stuart Turton I always wanted the plague doctor to be enigmatic. You're never sure if he's on Aiden's side, or not. The costume fit that perfectly. It was the uniform of a doctor back in the 16th Century, but was incredibly sinister at the same time.
