I got enough votes saying they'd like to see my characters, so here's three for a start! Armel, Lucretia, and Otto "Mesmer" Lambert.
These are comparatively minor ones, ones who I've never had to get into their head and histories too much (which isn't to say I don't ever plan to--my backgrounders always seem to evolve despite their origins!) and that's why I was able to type them up pretty fast and post them all together.
There are two major storylines that most of the Anitaverse chars fit into, some into both. There's the Ruthven/Swans/Delilah storyline, and the New York storyline. New York is where almost everyone is, because that's where the roleplay was that spawned most of them. Normally I'd pick somewhere other than the Big Apple, because I've never even been there, but somehow they all 'fit' there in my head, and since it's not like I'm going to publish this I try not to sweat potential inaccuracies about the city too much. The New York storyline is just the various jumbled politics and lives of the supernaturals there. The Ruthven/Swans/Delilah storyline is much more specific, and concerns the enslavement of the English swanmanes by Ruthven, the refugee rebels in New York, and the creation of Delilah in Ruthven's labs. This is partly in New York where Delilah and said rebels now are, partly on a moor of unspecified location in England (probably somewhere in the Pennines, the possibly West Pennine Moors) where Ruthven and the English swans are.
Armel is part of the NYC plots, Lucretia part of the R/S/D plots, and Mesmer...I don't know yet.
