Hook/Character Creation : You were best friends and freshmen together in 1915 at the University of Washington, Seattle, WA. Whether you graduated or went to war in 1917 is up to you. In 1919 Robert Douglas married Ellen and moved to Calgary, Canada. It is now 1923 when you received the invite to the reading of his will, in Nelson, British Columbia, Canada. Strange that he didn’t send his usual Christmas card last December. Or update his address. Carmen Vigil, Painter/Poet (Andrew): 23yo Spanish (Asturian) heritage gifted her looks and charm, but the English poet/painter William Blake’s darker words and brush strokes guided her own artistic expression, trying to portray a world tarnished by the ravages of war and the influenza epidemic.

The Mind’s Eye.P1 (In a Different Light) Hook (Arkham) : You were 1916 MU college friends with Henry Stanley, before he went off to war in 1917. You had about 18 months of college together and thus knew each other to some degree in interaction and classes. Henry tried talking Jack into joining, but Jack only stood on the dock to wave goodbye as the troopship weighed anchor. Years later Carson tried to enlist to join Henry now that he was healthy, but the war was already over. Carmen sent letters with small pictures or sonnets enclosed. But that was years ago.
