MORTALS

David Waters

David Waters never gave up on his boyhood dream of becoming involved in archaeology and mythology. His parents believed it would pass, but when he refused to become the lawyer his father wanted or the doctor his mother wanted, he held true to his dream. Now a graduate student at NYU he is well versed in making his own way. What he never expected was that his choice of a thesis topic would change his life forever.

Demetrius

A somewhat enigmatic DJ, Demetrius performs in various Gothic clubs in the city. A friend to many, but a mystery from his past controls his fate.

Professor Rawls

Professor Rawls has guided David through his career at NYU, only to watch him fumble with his thesis. He tries ardently to steer him away from the Noiduttu as a topic, but never really says why.

HASTINGS

A successful businessman, Hastings is not only one of the richest men in the country but he is also an avid collector of objects and stories of the past. His obsession with the Noiduttu myth is based on his personal motto "Know the past, Dominate the future".

Adrienne

Putting the Goth in Goth girl, Adrienne lives for the lifestyle she has chosen to the fullest. A neighbor and friend to David, even if her habit of calling him

"Dr. Jones" annoys him a bit. She had no idea that a chance encounter at the club one night would transform her life.

Ariana

The epitome of a modern free spirit, Ariana lives her life according the the credo ' the heart wants what the heart wants'. While romantically involved with Demetrius she remains committed to no one and no thing.

William

The administrative assistant to Hastings, William makes the most out of what his job can offer him. Although Hastings looks down on him as a simpleton he revels in the money, power, and privilege that his position grants him to make up for an otherwise dull life.

Gabrielle

An accomplished performer or many arts Gabrielle lights up the stage at Mother and at exotic parties all across Manhattan. Her time on the stage is only part of her life, as she hosts a radio show about all things artistic in the city.

A renaissance unto herself in every way.

Paul

Bartender at The Raven , he keeps his guests will lubricated and every so often plays Viking metal on the jukebox. There is a connection between him and the ghost that haunts the bar, but that's just another mythology in the city.
