merrywednesday

note to self: look up more info on midwifery in NYS for Sherry and Mari

Bruce, Tree and Mari are all done for sweeps for the month, so it's just Ellie left (1 action thread, journal, boards). Get that done by this time next week.

do 100 questions properly because everyone else is and you are basically a sheep.

Note to self, so I don't forget:

Bruce majors in German, minors in compulsive gambling, works at a cheese shop. God, I love this guy.

Also, this icon is who Bruce wants to be when he grows up. Handlebar mustache and all.

Game: Shiver My Timber!
Era: 1643
Information: Set in the fictional colony of St. Erasmus Island, these characters were plagued by things like where to find decent fabric, how to escape zombies, getting rid of the carnival that trapped them, and staying clear of strangers... particularly good-looking ones.
Characters: Elizabeth "Lizzy" Hindman and Benjamin Helms
Additional notes: Lizzy was first created in the 1643 era, while Benjamin was adapted from 1843. Unfortunately, I did not get to play 1643!Benjamin for more than four months before the game shut down, so he is not as well-rounded as Lizzy.

Game: Shiver Dem Dere Timbers!
Era: 1863
Information: Set in the Wild West, the characters from 1643 were magically transported through time into the future, and none of them remembered anything about their original lives, instead having false memories. Only when the magic began to be disrupted toward the end of the illusion did anything supernatural occur.
Characters: Benjamin Phineas Helms and Elizabeth "Lizzie" Grimme
Additional notes: Benjamin is particularly well-suited to a Wild West/Civil War game, but since I did have time to properly adapt Lizzie to the Wild West, she is equally at home in either era.

Special notes: The above two characters I believe can be adapted to most eras of history, Elizabeth especially. Benjamin is well-suited to underdog-type roles.

Game: Stoneybrook Live
Era: Modern
Information: Set in high school, the characters navigate their ways through the stormy sailing that is adolescence and young adulthood.
Characters: Theresa "Tree" Daniels and Marijke "Mari" Drabek
Additional notes: Using The Baby-Sitters Club book series as background canon; however, my characters generally only appeared in one or two books as background characters, and so I provided the majority of characterization.

Game: A New Life
Era: Modern
Information: Set in modern day New York City, this game is based on Stoneybrook Live, but fast-forwarded five years to the future as the characters that survived high school now turn their attention to surviving the real world.
Characters: TBA

Characters Without a Home
Solomon Stamper - an ageing wizard
Eulalie Stamper - his half-sister
