40's-60's grizzled outdoorsmen. Born and raised on the land and infinitely wise. This hermit lives in the margins of society, preferring to live off the land in the woods than to adapt to modern life. His isolation took a dark turn years ago after the disappearance of his nephew MALCOLM, leaving him crotchety and morose. He continues to upkeep the abandoned town of Old Robinwood and search the forest/Prison grounds daily for his nephew, intimidating and threatening any strangers foolish enough to venture to the Prison in search of thrills.

A punk teenage graffiti artist. Nephew of The Hunter. Malcolm found his escape by spending time tagging and vandalizing the Robinwood Prison, but in the end, succumbed to the call of the Prison, being the latest victim of it’s clutches before Brian. Malcolm and his wit were able to make it closer to escape than anyone else before him, leaving one final message on his video camera before his death. Profoundly guilt-ridden in his last moments, ashamed of his angst and behaviour, he asks for forgiveness from his parents, becoming a reformed rebel, but it was all too late.

Mid 20's - 30's, a petite church girl who surprises you whenever you think you have her figured out. Shoulder length, prim and proper bob cut. Extremely bubbly and outgoing. Lives her life on the rails and by the numbers, her hobbies are her friends and relationships. Extremely loyal and compassionate, Frances’s goal in life is the complete opposite of Brian’s: find true love and grow old in rocking chairs on the Porch. Her innocence and genuine wholesome attitude makes it impossible to take issue with her as it’s probably a reflection of your short comings rather than hers. Frances moves to New York with Brian to support him in his dream but is blindsided when he abandons her upon a grim diagnosis, leaving her to fight alone. Being the first time in her life she’s been crossed, Frances’ world view completely shatters, leaving her to sour and ruminate about Brian each day as her health declines until the bitter end. Her hatred and spite leaves a permanent stain on the world as she passes away, alone, without even a phone call from the love of her life. That kind of energy doesn’t follow one to the next life, it lingers.

50's-60's, French Canadian local of Robinwood, he knows all of the town’s secrets and stories and loves to share them time to time when the odd traveler takes the Robinwood 196 line. A school bus driver by day and part time sunday driver to connect the town to bigger cities. Happy go lucky, sharp as a tack and a comedian in a past life. A genuine people person who loves to talk whether you want to or not.

Senior, soft looking and calming with a deep, wise voice.

Once a successful businessman and single father, Hank is a shell of the lively man he used to be - partly from age and the physical deterioration of his body, but mostly from the mental and emotional stranglehold his daughter's illness has on him. A few years ago, his daughter received a life-threatening neurological diagnosis. The pain was too much, and Hank stopped visiting her in the hospital. He's carried that guilt every day since. Sharp as a knife - he remembers everything and volunteers nothing, pragmatic and unreadable until his daughter comes up, at which point a deep, desperate grief breaks through. He was the property manager who sold Oliver's parents the house back in 1997, and he's genuinely warm toward Oliver, which only makes it worse when Oliver betrays his trust.

Born in the early 1800s, Lorraine found a partner who wanted exactly what she did: eternal life. With her lover Nathan, she conjured the Kikimora (a mythological creature who can give eternal life) and has worshiped it ever since. In the 1990s, she became pregnant, and despite Nathan's opposition, she kept the twins - Oliver and Syd - and raised them herself. It was the happiest stretch of her long life: loving, present, attentive. But the guilt of outliving her children, watching them grow old and die while she stayed young forever, became unbearable. She left them - and left behind her necklace of eternal life. The moment she took it off, age caught up with her all at once, and her mind took the worst of it. Her dementia is advanced but non-linear; she drifts between sharp clarity and total absence with no warning. When she's present, she's nurturing, loving, a wonderful listener. More than anything, she wants to be young again and to give her children the gift of eternal life she once gave up.

A single mother of twins, she is loving, present and attentive. More than anything, she wants to be stay young forever and to give her children the gift of eternal life she once gave up. She has a calm energy and is easily manipulated.

Comedic relief of the scene. The Handyman is doing a little more drinking and smoking on the job then repairing the leaky faucet in the basement. He's got a short temper and emotions rise quickly.

Tom is the intern to a struggling internet content creator - Mark. He'll do just about anything to make a buck. He's awkward but holds confidence that seems out of place.

This character is an anchor. They are practicing Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) principles, meaning they are deeply observant, patient, and able to look past the child's anger to the fear underneath. They hold boundaries firmly but with immense compassion. They are not looking to "fix" the problem immediately but rather to "hold" the child's emotions, providing a safe harbor. The actor must convey unconditional love, presence, and a sense of unshakable commitment. Vocal & Performance Notes: Calm, grounded, unhurried — this is the emotional anchor of every scene, so pacing should never rush even when the child escalates. Warm and patient but not soft or permissive; she holds boundaries with authority delivered through steadiness, not sternness. Body language remains present, with steady eye contact. Casting Sensitivities: Should read as relatable and real rather than polished/commercial No clinical or therapist affect — she is a parent using these tools at home, not a professional in a session.
