This is sort of a hybrid between networking and lonely plots and character ads. I'm seeking existing characters to fill these roles moving forwards and I wasn't really sure where to put them - particularly since they don't have plots, they're more general relationship dynamics. Everything here is super flex and please feel free to send me other ideas also. I may be back with more classifieds if people seem interested in this. <3

For Alfred: Antagonist
THIS CHARACTER'S TRAITS: Lives or works somewhere that would bring them into semi-regular contact with Alfred (Sanditon, London near the docks), doesn't approve of him for whatever reason, and is generally petty (or could be in this instance).
WHERE THIS GOES: Playing small but decidedly spiteful little pranks on each other or going out of their way to inconvenience each other, being lowkey unpleasant, getting irrationally bent out of shape about each other's antics, having everyone else in their lives go oh my god will you two seriously just get over it already? Think: that neighbor who files a noise complaint to the landlord because you had someone over for dinner. But probably sillier and crazier because ~magic.

For Henri: Potential Husband
THIS CHARACTER'S TRAITS: Male, not already married, wealthy. "Good match" on paper. Bonus points if you can say or do something nice to her at literally any point. Interest in Henri or even acknowledgement of her existence is not required.
WHERE THIS GOES: Probably her stalking you, to be honest. Sending private investigators after you to uncover all your life's secrets. Trying to trap you into marriage in a way that doesn't lead you to resenting her. Lots of very ridiculous threads. Marriage not required.

For Jules: ...Hurling??
THIS CHARACTER'S TRAITS: Male, somehow becomes romantically interested in Juliana.
WHERE THIS GOES: So ideally I would love to get Juliana into a situation where someone has feeling for her and she becomes aware of that and either doesn't return them at all or at least doesn't return them in full (she's ace so even if she has ~feelings for someone the idea of being with them sexually is not appealing) but is considering it for whatever reason. Means to an end? Doesn't want to let him down? Ended up in another bodice-ripping situation and thinks marriage is the only way to save her life? Is really invested in his at-home library? Anyway. Emotional turmoil + really funny threads while she tries to explain this dilemma to others.

For Jules: Wayward Friend
THIS CHARACTER'S TRAITS: Probably female, either younger than Juliana or someone who makes particularly bad decisions, someone that Juliana could possibly like / feel vaguely protective over.
WHERE THIS GOES: Your character considers making poor life decisions (especially regarding men/romance?) and Juliana slaps some sense into them (verbally, she is nonviolent). Possibly she hexes those who wrong you. She almost certainly confronts one or more people who have offended you in the past to tell them they're jerks. She probably embarrasses you at least once.
