As mentioned in the brainstorming over the weekend, here is where we'll find the proposed non-player characters, (NPC). Everyone please create a character or two and post them here. It doesn't have to be as intense as your own character application, but get the basic facts down. Name, occupation, who the person is intended for, things like that. Once everyone has posted a character, we'll see what we have and chose a few, even compromising and mixing traits if needed. These characters will not be "owned" by any one player. They will be more like the canons, free for all to use.
Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with!

Well, here's my suggestion for a companion for Gordon.

Someone for Scott? This is just a loose representation. I figure once we decide on a character, we'll develop him/her together and fit them into the storyline.
Name: Rachel Stone
Age: 29
Hair: Deep auburn red, loose natural curls, hangs to the middle of her back.
Eyes: Hazel
Build: Tall around 5'11", medium build.
Rachel is the new cargo pilot in charge of deliveries to Tracy Island. She doesn't come for every trip, only on occasion as a fill in pilot. She is spirited and outgoing, very friendly. She lives in Christchurch, NZ, the daughter of two teachers. Her older brother is married and has two children.
She enjoys flying, often taking vacations to places she has to fly to get there. Rachel likes the outdoors, camping, hiking, fishing, things along that line. She isn't afraid to get her hands dirty. She's good at her job and she knows it, yet not cocky, just confident. She has dreams of one day running her own Air Guide service, taking tourists to remote places around the world.

Here's another possible NPC (I was going to use her in another RP, but things changed there & I left it.):
Name: Sally Addams
Age: 45
Birthdate: May 5, 2023 (the same as Dianne's)
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: slim; she doesn't own a scale
Hair: platinum blonde, shoulder length, straight
Eyes: brown
Best feature: her legs; she was going to be a ballerina, but a fall that broke her ankle ended that ambition
Marital status: widowed (her husband died of cancer of the liver several years ago), no children
Family: one brother, who lives some distance from her current location
She knew Dianne in high school, when her family moved to Greenville from Chicago. When she met Dianne, and found out they were the exact same age, she used to joke that they were actually fraternal twins, separated at birth. They became good friends, but their ways parted when Dianne went to medical school, and Sally to pharmacy school. They kept up a regular, but sporadic correspondence. When Dianne's husband was killed and later blamed for the bombing, Sally supported her friend, saying, "You wouldn't have fallen in love with a man who could be capable of doing that kind of thing."
Sally will move to Christchurch to work for the pharmaceutical company from which Dianne gets her drugs. Dianne will be delighted to have a friend from her schooldays living nearby and, from time to time, will visit her.
Sally is an intelligent, vivacious woman, who loves to joke around. Whenever she send Dianne a letter or an email to Dianne, she always includes a joke.

Here's a possible former girlfriend for Virgil.
Name: Lily Grahams
Age: 27
Hair: Chestnut brown, wavy, shoulder length
Build: Medium, slightly overweight
Height: 5' 4"
Only child of a single mum, she's been spoilt all her life. Had a relationship with Virgil seven years ago, has a girl named Natasha whom she claims is Virgil's daughter. She is trying to contact Virgil to force him to support them, knowing he's the son of a multi-billionaire.
She works as a sales assistant in a furniture store, and supplements her income working in a fish and chip shop during the evening.
She is ruthless and determined, and wants extra money, having huge credit card debts to pay off.

I'm not sure what Jack could bring to the agents, other than being a pair of watchful eyes, but then the same could be said of Jeremiah Tuttle, couldn't it?
As for the girl giving the secret away, it can be dismissed as she was lying, trying to make her father look better than he is (I don't think her parents would be so lax as to let her find out the connection between the Tracys and IR. She might, however, find out that her father is an agent.)
I have an idea for use in a girlfriend for Gordon: a real-life mermaid!
Clicky!
Hopefully this gives you the link to the double amputee who had a functioning mermaid tail made for her by the special effects people who worked on LotR. If not, I'll see if I can find the right link.
But it could be cool for Gordon to have a girlfriend like this, perhaps even someone who was in the hydrofoil crash with him.
ETA: Updated to a new link that's actually active. Old one was gone.

Well seeing as Dianne is introducing Sally I thought I'd list the two friends of Scott's that were introduced in the one post I did.
Name: Bill Harris
Birthday: May 2, 2035
Age: 33
Family: Bill is married to Jennifer (Jen). They have two little boys( Bill Jr.(Billy), Joshua (Josh)). They are expecting a third child, a little girl, in January.
Bill's father is deceased. Bill has a little sister, Melissa (Missy), who recently married a lawyer in NYC. Missy and Scott dated at one point. The relationship was ended by Missy. Their mother is still alive.
Occupation: Major in the Air Force. Bill is currently stationed at the Air Force Academy as an instructor.
Other Info: Bill and Scott met in college. They were good friends, spending a lot of time together. They served in the Air Force together and have kept in touch over the years.
Messenger name is FlyingAce35
____________________________________________________________ ___
Name: Ted Suarez
Age: 34
Birthday: September 11, 2034
Occupation: Lawyer
Ted went to college and was friend with Bill and Scott. He's from a Catholic family. He just recently got married. His wife and him went to Las Vegas and eloped to avoid having to have a Catholic wedding that his mother would have insisted on.
____________________________________________________________ ____
That's as much as I've figured out for them. If anyone uses them, feel free to add background information to them as wanted, though please don't add any more siblings for Bill.
