NPCs (Non Player Characters)





"In general, any character (human or otherwise) in a role-playing game that is not controlled by someone playing the game"

Due to the nature of the RP, NPCs are extremely important. Pay close attention.





SCHOOL

SCHOOL COUNSELOR

Image

Name: Ralph Chambers
Age: 27
With a doctorate in psychology from EHU, Mr. Chambers is exceptionally intelligent- he's funny in a sort of "dad humor" way, very sympathetic and considerate. A Batteridge resident all his life, he knows about the enviroment for students in BHS and is trying to help as many students as he can. Absolutely obsessed with disco, his office is graced with pictures of the Bee Gees and bad 70's hairdos. Has a disco album playing in the background all. the. time. "Huh, huh, huh, huh stayin' alive" will be playing over and over again in your head for the next year."

HEAD TEACHER

Image

Name: Argus Brown
Age: 32
The stoic headmaster with no apparent emotions, Mr Brown is annoying to everyone but populars and athletes for blindly ignoring any bullying going on in the apparently "bully free zone" that is Batteridge High School. Back to no emotions- rumors have spread from "He's a sociopath" to "He's a secret government plot to control kids by making them do seemingly meaningless homework that's actual a mind control device that brainwashes us to love the illuminati" (However, word of advice- don't spread rumors that the Conspiracy Theorist clique come up with...)

Image

Name: Rusty Roscoe
Age: 17
Nephew of town billionaire Cooper Roscoe, Rusty is the "big man on campus", the King Bee, if you will. He has been known to have multiple DUI's but is never charged, has even been filed for assaulting a young nerd by the name of "Quentin Mitty" (Pushing him down 2 flights of stairs then beating him up), but he was never charged. Yes, this seventeen year old boy gets away with a lot and of course makes up for it in sporting prowess. He is the Quarterback of the Batteridge Bats. Go Bats! (Not.)

TEACHERS CAN BE MADE UP, JUST MAKE SURE EVERYONE AGREES ON A NAME.

SHOPS

Image

Name: Gwenette Fairchild
Age: 28
The mild-mannered, mildly agoraphobic owner of popular book store/library/rental service Fairchild's Nirvana. When not running the store Gwenette can be found next to the fireplace with a glass of Richmond Malt and a good book- she suffered an alcohol dependency in her early-twenties and holds A.A meetings in the bookstore. She has always liked our protagonists and their voracious reading habit- returning customers are given one of the most genuine smiles you could ever get.

Image

Name: John Doe
Age: ?
Ah, the mysterious 'John Doe', owner of the most curious shop in this side of Colorado- Hoodoo Voodoo. Of course, John Doe is not his real name, but everyone in town likes to pretend it is. However, the question stands- what does he have to hide by not declaring his name? All we know is that he comes from Togo, Africa, or at least- that's what he's told us... NEVER I repeat NEVER get on his bad side, he has thousands of ways to kill you in which he'll never get caught. However, despite the macabre, John is a charming, enchanting man. A smile is always on his face. Except when it's not.

Image

Name: Maria Santos
Age: Early 30's
Maria Santos, owner of Red Light Burlesque. This seductress with a dulcet voice has been in Burlesque since she was in her early 20's, she knows practically everything about the art. It's rumored Maria isn't completely human... We'll find out soon enough. Street-smart and manipulative, you may find her mellifluous voice lulls you into Red Light Burlesque. Her dancers are exciting, goddesses on earth, the drinks are aged well and honey-smooth, and the band playing 24/7 seems like one out of the 40's. Every note is crisp and perfectly in tune, the whole atmosphere melds together...





Image

Name: Cooper Roscoe
Age: 45
It seems as though Cooper Roscoe is the silent spectator of the town- except one thing; he isn't silent, at all. The cocky billionaire was born into old money but quadrupled his fortune through his ruthless business ways. You're always hearing about him one way or another, through Rusty, Channel 30, or otherwise. You've maybe even met him once, who knows. He is a member of one of the founding families of Batteridge.

Image

Name: Ruth La Roche
Age: 51
John Doe's personal psychic and arguably the most powerful psychic... ever... Ruth is one of the best people you'll ever meet. Literally. Again, it has been rumored that she's a little bit of a witch and we sort of believe it. Her powers are actually astounding and her insight is fantastic. However, she does have an alcohol problem which can cloud some of her visions, but Gwenette's A.A meetings are helping immensely.

JUST ASK IF YOU WANT MORE NPC'S OR IF YOU WANT A SPECIFIC NPC. THIS IS STILL A WIP AND I PROBABLY WILL ALWAYS BE ADDING NEW CHARACTERS.

I just had to do say this but how about Christopher Walken being a supernatural ? He can so play the part, like a villain or a citizen that the group gets mixed up with or something? I mean look at him man!
Image

Remember Sleepy Hollow? OO he can play something that stalks the forest like the headless horseman !

I kind of drafted up 4 possible owners/employees for the Singing Dragon. I tried to keep the descriptions pretty vague, and I'm kinda leaning towards one or more being an undercover supernatural creature. I just wanted to try and flesh out Gabriel's workplace. Feel free to change anything below:

Image

Name: Jonathan White
Age: ?????
The kindly owner of The Singing Dragon who’s much like his theater―wonderful, and...eerie. He speaks with a somewhat English accent, as well as an undertone of something even more foreign. He says he’s from England, but everyone suspects that he’s not telling the whole truth. But would you really ask him? No one’s ever seen him lose his temper, but you can only imagine what it’d be like if he did…
Faceclaim: Christopher Lee

Image

Name: Nadya White
Age: We dare you to ask her.
The all-business, no-nonsense Head Manager of The Singing Dragon. Curiously, she speaks with no accent. At all. She’s apparently the daughter of the owner, and they certainly seem close enough. Slack off at your job or try and take advantage of others inside her territory, and expect her to come down on you like a Russian winter. Several people have left with bloody noses, black eyes, even broken bones. But curiously, none of them ever pressed charges. However, she does care about everyone in the theater, and loves dogs.
Faceclaim: Scarlett Johansson (Natasha Romanova)

Image

Name: Alexei White
Age: 24
A surprisingly cheerful man recently imported from Russia, Alexei has apparently come to help his grandfather and aunt with their theater. He speaks with a Russian accent and is eternally smiling and helpful. He’s particularly enthusiastic when they show Russian movies, and can talk for hours about them. When not working in the theater under Nadya’s strict gaze, he can be found at Magic & Mayhem or the Olympia Mall. Rumor has it that he’s also been seen at Hoodoo Voodoo and the Market.
Faceclaim: Anton Yelchin

Image

Name: Ozais Adler
Age: 29
A complete oddball, one may be forgiven for being surprised at Ozais’s presence in the almost otherworldly theater. He and Nadya often clash, his laidback, punkish attitude chafing with her strict rules. He’s nice in a sort of sarcastic, blunt way, and will not stand for rude customers, or anyone who messes with his coworkers. He comes to work in all sorts of odd uniforms (he wears kilts on Fridays, much to Nadya’s eternal frustration), and generally does inappropriate things frequently. He usually works behind the scenes making the food (the quality of the sandwiches skyrocketed when he was hired, which is partially why Nadya has let him live), as well as taking care of the films themselves. He’s often seen around Le Feu.
Faceclaim: Jenson Ackles (Priestly)
