The Detective

Name: Vito Marchese
Player: Jim
Physical description: The part of Vito Marchese will be played by Johnny Depp. As far as appearance and the way he talks, think Donnie Brasco.
Background: A former police detective with the NYPD, Vito realized what was happening early on, stayed around long enough to ensure the safety of a few relatives and associates, and has since then simply ... disappeared.  He has dropped off the grid, living in squats around SoHo and working his network of street contacts for information, money or the means of producing it (contraband), and avoiding contact with the Guardians.  He knows that he can make little difference on his own, but perhaps with the right allies, when the time is right...

Vito is presently living at the Requiem, and doing his best to make sure that his adoptive family keeps out of trouble. After a recent near-death experience, he is a bit more cautious about his dealings with the world.

She is planning on getting married to Dominica.

The Storyteller

Name: Becky Browning
Player: Nikki
Physical description: Tall for her age, thin. Long dark hair, and dark eyes. Attractive
Background: Becky came to New York after nearly being indoctrinated into the Friends of the Guardians, and rapidly made friends amongst the other disaffected youths of the city. Unfortunately, her successes in this city have become far outweighed by her personal tragedies and misfortunes, including the loss of most of her family, her misfortunes in love, and her poor handling of friendships. She is currently the writer for 'Buffy, the Slayer of Vampires', but is leaving New York to attend college in North Carolina in Fall 2013.

Name: Sierra "Kya" Gipson
Player: Nikki
Physical Description: Black female, early 20s, fairly petite

The Gangsta

Name: Marcus Jefferson
Player: Nikki
Physical description: Black teenage male, average height and weight, average appearance
Background: Marcus was raised by a group of neighbors when his mother left him abandoned in a inner city apartment building. He lived happily until his neighborhood and building were demolished in an effort to remove crime from the city. The buliding full of people that raised him dispersed, and now are hiding out all around the city, and he was left to fend on his own for the first time in his life. He is currently staying at the Requiem, and is too tough to admit when he's tired or hurt. He is bedding with Morrigan, and is very happy with his life.

The Spirit Medium

Name: Ceceylla Darline Kane
Player: Amy
Physical description: Willowy, blue-eyed, reddish-blonde hair, vaguely disconnected from things.
Background: Ceceylla has never quite been right in the head since the horrific death of her mother at the claws of a clawed clown creature with a visage only seen in Stephen King novels; this has only gotten worse over her life when her fellow students eventually trounced her after a period of putting up with her cruelties, and the death of her father (which she denies ever happened) -- now, she's trying her best to help out the Slayer, and trying to manage to deal with her own personal demons... Unfortunately, her tendency to whine and complain drives away most people, and her state of pregnancy has not helped her hormones... nor has the fact that the father has left her for another woman.

The Warrior

Name: Morrigan
Player: Jim
Physical Description: 18-year-old girl, six feet tall.
Background: A former student of the same arts school as Val, Alisson managed to fight her way out of the building and lived on the streets for some time after. She eventually made her way to St Mary's/St Dom's, where she was given a room and a place in the school, and took leadership of the Iron Cross. Her dance and gymnastic training have made her an amazing fighter, which led her to believe for a long time that she was the Slayer. That delusion being dispelled, she is currently figuring out her place in the scheme of things, and trying to do as much as she can to destroy the Guardians.

The Prophet
Name: Angel (Brian Maxwell)
Player: Aus
Physical description: Moderate height, slender build. Black hair, brown eyes, and a habit of looking at people too closely. Eerily calm under pressure.
Background:
The Prophet is fairly reticient about his past, but does occasionally mention being a musician 'in a past life'. This tends to sum up how he looks at the period of time before his prophetic visions - but suffice it to say that 'Angel' has many reasons to dislike the Guardians -- and many reasons to assure the survival of the Last Slayer. After his conversion, he sold many of his fixed belongings, and took to a more mobile lifestyle... and has been patiently awaiting the right time and the right place (and the right prophecy. You don't think those things just all come at once, do you?), staying as far away from the Guardians as possible... until New York.

The Slayer

Name: Valkyrie (Lucinda DeMarco)
Player:  L
Physical description: Seventeen, with cropped dark brown hair, and green eyes, average height and weight. Somewhat excitable.
Background: Val was once a student at an arts school before a Guardian raid that she barely escaped from. Afraid to go home to her family (her brother was one of the Friends), she lived on the street for almost two years before The Prophet came into her life. Now her destiny is foremost on her mind, and she wonders if she'll be able to make a difference for humanity....

The Guardian
Name: Martin Grayson
Player: Aus
Physical description: Tall, muscular, with dark brown hair and slightly iridescent grey-blue eyes. Perfectly smooth skin, no sign of facial hair.
Background: Martin is a Guardian with a secret - he is not content with the idea of a Guardian-created world. He wants the old world back, and he's willing to intrigue his way into making it happen. While his co-workers consider him a perfectly straight-up, take-care-of-business, humans-are-cattle kind of guy, he secretly has his eye on the rebellious youth of the city... and not for arrest and detainment procedures. Martin is currently the head of Guardian operations in New York City.

The Addict
Name: George "Juice" Davis
Player: L
Physical description: Soft hair and features, generally cheerful. Dresses for comfort more than style.
Background: Juice has made great strides towards having a normal life with the aid of Martin and his friends, and is now a reasonably well-adjusted, if overly enthusiastic at times, teenager who loves hanging out with friends and playing games - and worries that Martin's work might just get him in trouble someday soon...

The Watcher

Name: Rachel Lee
Player: L
Physical description: 5'8" tall, dark brown hair, blue eyes - tends to dress well and likes hats
Background: Rachel is from jolly old England, and though she claims to be here doing some research for a development firm, she's really a lot more interested in the group than she lets on at first.  Rachel is one of the last of a proud tradition- a watcher, second generation, trained by her father Franklin Lee, one of the few to survive the devastation of the watcher's council a decade ago. They've heard of the new slayer and have sent her here to access the situation. She is currently in ownership of Burkowitz Books, and lives there with her daughter, Reba, and her... uh, Eddie.

The Mechanical Genius

Name: Eddie Lancaster
Player: Aus
Physical description:  5'9", well-toned, scruffy and vaguely oily, with light brown/blonde hair and hazel eyes
Background: Eddie Lancaster, the former maintenance man for Whitetail Grove, is a man of many secrets. A junkyard owner, a mechanic, and at times an explosives expert and demoitionist, Eddie generally does his best to help out the group one way or another, though he often gets distracted by his lovely companion, Rachel, or by his latest project. Eddie has a -very- peculiar way of talking that manages to mangle the English language in quite a few ways, and is fairly intelligent despite his language issues. He also makes his trade repairing all sorts of things - air conditioners, cars, elevators, lawnmowers, tanks... the usual things you'd find in your back yard. Eddie is your basic fix-it type -- and he particularly likes to work on vehicles. He's got slight beard stubble, unkempt hair, and is almost always smiling and energetic. He's reasonably nice (with a slight habit of overcomplimenting young ladies) and generally isn't too much trouble. His current hobby involves manipulating Stepford Project chips with the assistance of a salvaged piece of equipment known as a Handler.

The Innocent
Name: Gloria Harland
Player: L
Physical description: 5'4" tall, brown hair and eyes, sweet smile.
Background: Gloria lived with her parents in North Dakota until she started to go blind at the age of 12. They sent her to live with her grandfather in New Jersey so that she could attend the St. Joseph's School for the Blind in Jersey City. Gloria lived with her grandfather until he died when she was 19 - for a while, she maintained his house and stayed there. But when her vision continued to worsen, she could no longer hold a steady job that paid enough to keep the house and pay taxes - it was sold to pay off the debts. Most recently, she's moved into the Requiem, with her lover and fiancee, the mysterious E. Oddly, her vision seems to have returned...

Player: Aus
Physical description: Tall, athletic, and very muscular.
Background: Tony DeMarco joined the Friends of the Guardians at a young age, and had been rising through the ranks ever since. He excels in athletics, and was part of the 2012 USA Olympic team before being coaxed to hide out with his sister.  He is currently living at the Requiem, and is seriously unhappy about his inability to compete in the Olympic events, coupled with a slowly growing anger over the time of his life lost to the Friends. He works at the Requiem as a security agent, but secretly plots...

The Tax Collector

Name: Jess Allen
Player: Rick
Physical description: Jess is short, a bit overweight, freckled, with medium-length dark brown hair, light blue (almost grey) eyes.
Background: Jess Allen is a plain looking, slightly overweight woman 26 years old who works as in New York's Office of Property Tax Assessment. She's on the take, but no more so than any other minor functionary. Jess is indistinctive, unimpressive, and easily overlooked, traits that she uses to her advantage when helping those involved in questionable or subversive activities to avoid governmental entanglements. After a kidnapping incident, Jess sympathized with her kidnappers, and were horrified when those responsible were in turn interrogated. As of late Jess has been working to build her own revolutionary faction focused around protests and posters.

The Librarian
Name: Devika Patel
Player: Amy
Physical description: Devika is a small Indian woman, 23 years old.  Crippled in a childhood magic accident, she walks with the aid of leg braces and crutches.
Background: Devika has been a witch since she can remember.  She's always been able to make things happen just by willing it, or chanting to the Gods and Goddesses.  But when she was six, they said no.  She wanted to grow faster, and so she did a little spell on her legs. It left her permanently crippled. After her accident, she was reluctant to use magic for anything, until she found a mentor.  Her mentor, whom she called Auntie, was skilled in drawing Devika's talents out in a safe way.  Until she disappeared too, leaving behind a collection of strange magical objects and the unmistakeable sense that Auntie was out there, somewhere, still alive. Devika works as a reference librarian for the New York Public Library.  She's stayed quiet, which puts her at an advantage to her more outspoken librarian friends, who have been disappearing one by one.

Minor
NPCs

Most minor NPCs will be run from a singular NPC journal. Each will have an individual picture and a little background information on the NPCs page to help players keep track of who they are, as well as or in addition to the information in their journal's user information. NPCs will generally only write a journal or action entry if it is important to plot development, but they may be interacted with and can reply in comments to an action post in the community as needed. If an NPC becomes the major focus of a plot, or becomes more actively needed, s/he may end up getting a character journal and being a more active character.
