[SOLANGE] 18-32. She is a soft-spoken people pleaser who is now plagued by paranoia and distrust after a rocky start in America. Quietly intelligent despite not having a high school education. There is a distinct nervous energy about her, right below the surface, which makes her seem fragile. Must be of Ivorian descent. French fluency a plus but not required.

[JEROME] 25-32. He is bookish, introverted, and painfully prideful of his academic accomplishments. He prioritizes logic over emotion, even his own, and will lash out when backed into a corner. Ivorian descent preferred, but open to other West African ethnicities. French fluency a plus but not required.

Daniel

Character Description:
Male, Caucasian, early to mid 30s.
After graduating high school, Daniel moved out of his small hometown in hopes of getting a better opportunity to make something of himself. He was a good kid, never really got into trouble, and was seen as one of the more popular kids. Daniel is now a disheveled man, a shell of his former self, that has had an extremely hard life. Being beat down by a variety of circumstances, he now turns to a life of crime. Although he is pushed to these extreme measures, there is still something deep down in him that is holding onto his former self.

Jessie

Character Description
Female, Caucasian, early to mid 30s.
In high school, Jessie was smart, funny, and very laid back. She didn’t have any grand ideas for what she wanted to do with herself after graduating and wanted to live a calm, relaxed life in her small hometown. She doesn’t overly focus on her looks, but she is beautiful enough to make people wonder why she has stayed as a waitress at the local diner all these years. Jessie has had hardships, as many people do, but has chosen to face things head on and do what is right.
