Our Cast of Characters

  • Firbeck

    • It is a sleepy village, small, prosperous, out-of-the-way. Of course, no one will speak of what happened to the vicar’s wife, and it doesn’t do to look at the church steeple once the sun goes down.

  • Myling

    • When she was a living child, her parents lay stupid with drink instead of giving her food to eat. Now that she is dead, she does not let them sleep.

  • Galleytrot

    • A great black dog, regal in bearing, they say her paws leave no mark on the moors. She protects her people, but her eyes burn with cold phosphorescence.

  • Shadmock

    • His high collar and lace cravat speak of noble birth. But at night, an uncanny whistling can be heard from under the eaves of the manor house.

  • Our full cast of characters will reunite in the suite's final dance, MASH.
