Note that the following questions about age are just to give me a better idea of how to cast you and to avoid casting 50 year olds as teenagers, etc. It will not necessarily limit your choice of character since I am happy to re-write characters' ages to fit the player if their age is not essential to their plot. What age range are you happy to play: ___________ How old are you : ___________ Which run would you like to play inYou can choose to play in either the 1928 or the 2008 run. Note that the same types of characters are available in both runs, so you won't be restricting your choice of character by your choice of run. The only real restriction is costume. For the 1928 run, we really want players to dress the part, so if you aren't into costuming, please choose the 2008 run. Please enter a "Y" if you would like to play in a run and "N" if you really don't want to play in that run. If you don't mind which run you're in, please leave both boxes blank, while if you have a preference for one, but will play in the other, put a "Y" in that run and leave the other run blank. Don't put "Y" in both!

PlotAll the characters are equally important to the game, but they have different roles within the game. The main distinction is between those who are driving the plot and those who are reacting to it. Those who are driving the plot will have to make the running in the game, while those who are reacting will have things happening to them.As before, please choose which type of character you want with a "Y" or put an "N" if you don't want that type of character. [ ] Plot Driver [ ] Plot Reactor GoalsFinally, please select the type of goals that you would like your character to have.
Relatively easy/Difficult, but not impossible/Don't mind Final detailsIs there anything else you'd like to tell me that would help me in casting? In particular, there are several characters who are romantically linked or who are working as part of a team. If there is anyone you would particularly like to be cast with or who you'd prefer to avoid, now is the time to say so. A short sketch of your favourite/perfect character or what roles you like/dislike would also help... One last thing. If there are any character traits that you have marked with an "N" that you absolutely don't want to have, or anything else you absolutely don't want to play that isn't covered in the above choices (eg if you don't want to play a character who is a priest) then please tell me here.
