Desmond was a dog belonging to Mary Anne Disraeli, the wife of British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, in 1868. The dog was usually kept inside Mary Anne's handbag.
Sometime in 1868, while Mary Anne was touring Devil's Acre with the Assassin Jacob Frye, the handbag containing Desmond was stolen by a thug. Jacob had to use his Eagle Vision ability to retrieve the dog back to his owner. While touring the slums, Desmond would bark loudly whenever threats to his mistress were near.
