John Tourling

John Tourling was a Conspiracy assassin and Renfield. He is known to have been a former member of the British military before entering the private sector. Evidently, at some point Tourling entered into the service of the Conspiracy and was rewarded with transformation into a Renfield.

Actions of the Agents
Tourling was first encountered by Samuel Black on a flight from Norfolk, Virginia to Dubai during the agents' investigation into AgriWealth and the kidnapping of Owen Altone. Tourling was one of two assassins sent to kill the agents aboard the flight, though Bellamy Rook was not present, having taken a separate flight routed through Kazakhstan at the behest of Black.

Tourling posed as an Air Marshal, allowing him to be armed aboard the flight. However, Black's hand-to-hand combat training prevented Tourling from discharging his weapon and he was eventually incapacitated. However, Black chose to leave Tourling alive, concerned with the unwanted attention a dead Air Marshal would bring.

Tourling was encountered again in Marrakesh, Morroco, one of two Renfield assassins sent to apprehend or eliminate the journalist Olivia Liu. While it was clear that Tourling's Renfield abilities had increased since he was last encountered, neither he nor his companion survived the ensuing combat.
