And do not make a sound
I'll share a little secret
That seems a bit profound
Each thought that is imagined
Gains life its own
And drifts into reality
Looking for it's home
Some people call it karma
Some people call it fate
Some people call it kindness
Others call it hate
Some people use it wisely
Some people sell it cheap
Some call it happiness
But others call it grief
Tragedy from tragedy
A lovers kiss (that's simple)
Religion falls behind the walls
Where paradise remains
Did suffering suggest the cause
Of all our little questions
The answer was not coming soon
She paused for reflection
| DAI FitzROI, | a monster. Grump redcap leader of the city, self-styled Baron. Holds the biggest freehold in the city, The BONEYARD |
| his GIRLS, | Five pretty, quiet, well-dressed human girls who serve as his concubines, servants, and pets. |
| the WASTRELS, | a motley of satyrs who hold the HAUNTED MANSION, the only other freehold in the city. Self-centered, vile, mean, backstabbing, slovenly, careless, amoral, dishonest, reckless and convinced they're immortal |
| CARAYE, the CARYATID, | a WASTREL & de facto leader of the motley. A nasty character, worst of the lot, adores her boys and they she |
| HEXIS, | a WASTREL, quieter than the rest. The thinker. |
| KHOLE & MELAS, | identical twins, WASTRELS. Of the two, MELAS is the joker, KHOLE the quiet one (and the fighter). Both quick with a smileor a blade, KHOLE seldom talks to anyone outside the WASTRELS |
| HUMAN BOYS, | a revolving roster of boys in their teens, runaways, orphans, and the like, hang out at the HAUNTED MANSION with the fae members of the WASTRELS. |
| MISS BELLE, | A grump boggin - cheerful, bustling grandmotherly sort (think Nanny Ogg) with a passel of children and grandchildren over the NorthEastern US. Miss Belle runs an INN & CAFÉ on Alexander St. near Park Avenue. |
| LISSETTE, | Quieter than most sluagh, paler than most, and thinner than any other sluagh you've ever met, Lissette resides in the ORPHANAGE on South and Court. |
| the HORDE, | Out of Syracuse: a vicious gang of World War veterans, dockworkers, and thugs who claimed control of SYRACUSE in the late 1920's. Two trolls and 3 Nockers lead the group. |
| the REALM of the LAKE QUEEN, | In BUFFALO, a neo-Arthurian court of high-class fae, led by a Scathac, his Eshu advisor, and his pookah mistress. |
| CHESTER HESPERA | Not much is known about Chester Hespera, except that he came into town and settled in Mt. Hope Cemetery. He's not often seen outside of the cemetery, except at a few gatherings and occasionally around the non-changeling owned clubs in the area. Often, when spotted, he slinks away back to his graveyard. Summons at the gates are answered, if the summoner is willing to wait awhile. |
