Cast of Characters and General Discussion
I will be using the Ghastly Affair system in an attempt to create something of the flavor of the supernatural soap opera Dark Shadows. You don't need to know anything about the system or the TV show to play.
For reference:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Shadows
This forum is set in 1967. There is another forum set in 1795. These may effect each other, but may also be inconsistent; consider them to be different universes.
I will use pre-generated characters. Most will have their own secrets and agendas, often in conflict with each other. Expect lots of private messages between players, and lots of deception.
This is something of an experiment, so bear with me. To work out for the best, several players will be needed.
For now, select one of the following characters. Everything you need to know at this time is listed below. More information will be given to you after selections are made.
THE COLLINS/STODDARD FAMILY
Elizabeth Collins Stoddard, 50-ish, widow, head of the family, relations noted below
Roger Collins, 40-ish, brother, separated from wife
Carolyn Stoddard, 20-ish, daughter
David Collins, 10-ish, nephew (son of Roger)
Barnabas Collins, 30-ish, distant cousin
OTHERS
Victoria Winters, 20-ish, governess for David
Burke Devlin, 30-ish, businessman
Matthew Morgan, 50-ish, servant to the Collins
Sarah Johnson, 50-ish, servant to the Collins
Sam Evans, 50-ish, painter
Maggie Evans, 20-ish, waitress (daughter of Sam)
Doctor Julia Hoffman, 40-ish, physician
Jason McGuire, 30-ish, drifter
Willie Loomis, 20-ish, drifter
Professor Timothy Stokes, 50-ish, scholar
Joe Haskell, 30-ish, fisherman

Re: Cast of Characters and General Discussion
Away for seven days. If there are not a few more players interested by next week, we may just call this an interesting experiment that never really got started.

Re: Cast of Characters and General Discussion
Is it too late to sign up to this? If not, Maggie Evans sounds interesting.

Re: Cast of Characters and General Discussion
We'll see if there is any more interest a week from now. At that time, I may start an experimental, very basic game, just to see how things work out with a limited number of players.
Meanwhile, here is the primary setting, the mansion on the estate of Collinswood, located on a hill above the town of Collinsport, Maine.
