Cried like a baby, myself. Sorry for the delay in posting, Between the holiday and work it's been hectic. However I'm gonna have a lot more time after January 1st.
My own characters are originals. We thought it unfair for the mods to play any major characters other than the antagonists and most powerful angels as NPCs. Even then, we have to be careful. My own character is a Mohawk woman who dropped out of her Residency to raise her nephew. She's a fully schooled physician, but unlicensed, she is also a fully trained Medicine woman. I thought it would be interesting to see Native magics at work in the Supernatural world. I also play the nephew, who's an angry and frightened ten year old.
If we don't get an Ellen by the time of game play, you can either write Jo as being on her own for a bit or NPC her in a minor part until we get a permanent player. Whichever seems most prudent.
We have a plan for one of the first investigations. ::rubs hands together evilly:: Eventually I'd like to see Jo and Orenda play cards. LOL. Jo seems a brilliant poker player and Wren makes her money by dealing cards in the Akwesasne reservation's casino. Girl's night to kick ass. ;)
