BIO: If you’re one of Mouses Fiennes' thugs, chances are you’ll have come across Bartholomew a couple of times. This drunken thug, though imbecilic, is very friendly & warm-hearted. His story explains it all...
On a cold September night in 1868, Heather Favell gave birth to Bartholomew (who was born after his twin brother Maurice), & died shortly after due to complications. Bartholomew & Maurice were then taken in by their father, Mouses Fiennes, & transported to his hideout in
Bartholomew, in his youth, was quite fond of alcohol—that has shown significantly in his adulthood. When he was a child, Bartholomew would even drink six pints of the strongest beer whenever he was thirsty! However, despite his usually-inebriated state, Bartholomew made good friends with the thugs who worked for Mouses, & he was very close with his twin brother Maurice. Bartholomew, however, was not an easily-corruptible fellow, & when his brother Maurice was turned evil by Mouses at the age of 12, Bartholomew remained good, kind, & stout-hearted throughout his life.
In 1880, Bartholomew & “
And as Ratigan grew up into a strong teenager, Bartholomew was proud of the fine boy he had helped Mouses raise. (Although Bartholomew eventually became distressed when he found out about Mouses’ plans for the young rat...) To this day, Bartholomew continues to live at Mouses Fiennes’ hideout with his brother, sans Ratigan, who has since reformed & left the hideout for good.
As you may know from watching a certain movie, Bartholomew is an extreme alcoholic with a fondness for all kinds of beverages, ranging from beer to Bourbon. And when he’s drunk, he usually has loose lips, which has gotten him into trouble with Mouses Fiennes, the former Professor Ratigan, & the other thugs on countless occasions. Despite his big mouth & tendency to take to the drink, however, Bartholomew makes up for these flaws with a cheerful & light-hearted personality, as he is always willing to play with Miranda Robertson or tell a good joke to his peers, & is generally never seen without a smile on his round, chubby face.
A gentlemouse at heart & in practice, the stout-hearted Bartholomew is kind, cordial, friendly, & polite to everyone he meets; his sweet nature, in fact, has earned him a place in the Goodie Gang, as well as in the heart of Mouses’ young mistress Miriam, whom Bartholomew loves & cares for deeply. Though he sometimes does bad things to spare himself from Mouses’ wrath, Bartholomew is truly a good soul with a heart of gold & the encompassing compassion of his friends; he has a zero-tolerance for crime & feels nothing but pity for his corrupted brother Maurice.
Even though he tends to get too cozy with people while intoxicated, Bartholomew is actually a quite harmless mouse, & may be approached freely without caution.
