Jared met his wife Emma in university while pursuing his Bachelor's degree in psychology, coming from a middle-class background with overbearing parents. His interest in addiction was sparked during a session with a former addict, leading him to pursue a PhD and eventually open his own practice. Despite his professional success and a growing family, Jared developed a severe addiction to the euphoria of recreating patients' stories, resulting in a complex persona: supportive and charismatic in meetings, but manipulative and vicious in private.

Emma grew up in a religious household and developed a love for literature, attending private schools with her parents' support. She met Jared in university, supporting his career while pursuing her dream of becoming a professor, and later started teaching kindergarten. After marrying Jared, her focus shifted to her marriage and family, causing her professional life to stagnate.

Conceited and born into extreme privilege, Ollie grew up with inattentive but wealthy parents who provided for his material needs but not emotional support. His boundary-pushing behavior led to misdemeanors and eventually serious trouble, but his affluent parents secured a skilled lawyer to avoid jail time. Instead, he was fined and sent to mandatory rehab, where he ends up at Jared's center.

Clark is an ex-athlete gentleman hiding many insecurities. A severe ACL injury in high school ended his dreams of sporting glory, leading him to a career as a real estate agent. Overwhelmed by the monotony of life, he turned to drugs and alcohol, quickly spiraling into severe addiction, compounded by a troubling sexual addiction.

Clarice, a sex worker from a middle-class family, exhibited problematic behaviors since middle school and struggled with forming friendships. In high school, she joined a bad crowd and got involved with motorcycle clubs, leading to numerous misdemeanors. She met Jared when a judge mandated her attendance at his meetings, and they soon developed a strange, cooperative relationship that fueled each other's vices.

Darrel is Jared's supervisor at the rehab clinic and has been a long-term employee. He is a work friend of Jared and steps in after Jared's downward spiral.

A masochist, hopeless and struggling, seeks guidance to liberate himself from addiction.

Son of Commodus Bishop and a well-known, astute lawyer with salt and pepper hair. He was a boxer in his younger years and has no problem with confrontation. As someone who is not afraid to throw anyone under the bus to get ahead (even his family), his demeanour comes across generally as serious - Gerald does not have time to play around. Caucasian, approx 6'0".

Patriarch of the Bishop family and enterprise. A brilliant man who loves chess and reading, especially Dante’s inferno. He is a grey-haired (or almost balding) kingpin and is feared by all who cross him. A stoic man, he expects people to shut up and listen when he speaks. The only person he has a soft spot for is his great granddaughter, Penny. Caucasian, approx 6'0"

Son of Gerald Bishop. As a gay, handsome young man hiding his sexual orientation from his father, the two people who truly knos about his sexual orientation is his twin sister Eve and his cousin, Genevieve Knight. He has always had a short fuse and when dealing with issues and would rather solve it with his fists than with words. Mixed Ethnicity (Black/White), approx 6'2".

Daughter of Gerald Bishop. Girl-next-door cute but has never been the prettiest in the room. Always a runner-up and that has warranted her envious attributes, especially over her competitive family. She’s got something to prove but is timid and doesn’t know how to come out of her shell. Easily the most caring and selfless person, she however does resent it as well. Mixed Ethnicity (Black/White), approx 5'5".

As the oldest of her siblings Lori and Steven, Genevieve is a showstopper. With her dark hair and light eyes, people tend to be intimidated by her. She loves the finer things in life and is not afraid to show it. However, she is a gambling addict and has gotten into trouble multiple times with the wrong people. She isn’t afraid to take risks and tell people where to go if she doesn’t agree with them. Caucasian, approx 5'8".

As the middle sibling of Genevieve and Steven, she has had a rough life. After their mom died and dad took off, she got with the wrong crowd and now lives a life of prostitution to feed and clothe her daughter Penny. Not very trusting and skeptical about everyone she meets, she holds resentment to her family - but does what she can for Penny to thrive, whatever it takes. Caucasian, approx 5'6".

Youngest sibling of Genevieve and Lori, he had so much promise growing up to eventually take over the Bishop enterprise. With dirty blonde hair and light eyes, he was handsome in his own rite. However, the abuse of substances tarnished his potential and made him thin. Not being taken seriously from his family has never allowed him to thrive. He had no choice but to embrace his inner sloth and become a lazy addict. He is kind and still tries, but not everyone is receptive. Caucasian, approx 5'11".

Walter and his ancestors have served the Bishop estate for generations. As a clean-shaven strong, handsome man with neat hair, he is studious and knowledgeable and is trustworthy with the family secrets. You will never catch him not in at least a button-up shirt and dress pants. Though he serves the Bishop estate, he does not tolerate rudeness from anyone, especially the Bishop’s. He has earned their respect and he knows it. Poised and classy. Black, approx 6'1".
