(all suggestions, but we'd really love these guys in any way, shape or form!!)
HAMLET
Our last prince was played by the site's former owner, Yols, and called "Harry." She used Ian Somerhalder as the playby, but his and all characters' are open. The plot picks up from where Hamlet's father has been murdered by Claudius (played by Nessie) and he is torn, figuring out his uncle has taken over his father's many corporations and turned them to do bad. He also suspects that Claudius may be the killer of his father and has vowed to himself to figure out if this is true - meanwhile forgoing his own personality and, perhaps, sanity.
GERTRUDE
Hamlet's mother, who seems completely fine with Claudius' less-than-moral revamp of his father's company only a month after his death. She may or may not be on board with the company in general, and perhaps has feelings for Claudius that are more than just business relations.
OPHELIA
Polonius' - Claudius' chief adviser's - daughter who is in love with Hamlet. In Hamlet's current state, she is unsure whether or not his past affections were true or not.
HORATIO
Hamlet's best friend from university (or longer, it is up to the player). Hamlet confides in him his deepest secrets, and he is worried for his friends' own sanity as Hamlet becomes more obsessed with figuring out what Claudius did.
ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN
Hamlet's two childhood friends. Canonically, they have drifted apart but Gertrude does not realize this, and sends them to talk to her distressed son. Selfishly, it's be cool if these two took the place of Osric's two best friends, Hank and Wilson, but that doesn't have to happen.
