    Format for Characters:

    Pic:
    Self-explanatory, not mandatory though.
    Name: Self-explanatory.
    Allegiance: The big question. Are you fighting to keep your rightful sovereign on his divinely granted throne (Royalist) or to tear that hereditary president from his undeserved and overly elaborate seat (Rebel)?
    Age: Be realistic - I don't want 8 year olds leading the army
    Date of Birth: Also self-explanatory.
    Marital Status: Are you married? Single? Divorced, or unfortunately widowed?
    Children: Don't forget name, age & gender.
    Ethnicity: Keep in mind that this isn't the modern day. Nothing anachronistic please.
    Home State: Keep in mind that this is 1933.
    Occupation: Again, be realistic - no astronauts running for PM here.
    Religious Views: Self-explanatory. Nothing anachronistic (ex. atheists running for office in the ultra-conservative South) please.
    Biography: Self-explanatory. Not asking for a novel here, but I don't want pamphlets either.

    Name: Harolt Schultz
    Allegiance: Rebel
    Age: 34
    Date of Birth: 18 January, 1899
    Marital Status: Divorced(Wife supports monarchy)
    Children:
    Harold Schultz II(Male, Age 7, born 6 June 1927)
    Karoline Schultz(Female, Age 12, born 22 August 1921, lives with mother and is Royalist)
    Ethnicity: German(Silesian)
    Home State: Massachusetts, now lives in Wisconsin
    Occupation: Butcher
    Religious Views: Protestant
    Biography:
    Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1899 to a German Immigrant Family from the area known as Silesia, Harolt was a child raised by the values of discipline and co-operation to achieve goals. These skills were necessary in a domestic environment where his Father was abusive and his mother an Alcoholic. He had many - sometimes violent - confrontations with his father, whom, at age 15, he murdered with an axe. He quickly developed a bond with his mother and the two fled to Wisconsin and quickly established a more peaceful life. Harolt and his Mother lived there with his new stepfather and eventually, Harolt fell in love and married his now ex-wife, Katie, who gave him two children, Karoline and Harolt II. Harolt worked as a butcher in a small Wisconsin town for many years until the years when the situation with the Monarchy broke down, and his wife, along with his eldest child, Karoline, left him and went to Pennsylvania. He had, for many years of his life, been someone far-left, and took it one step further in 1917 when he began to read the writings of Marx, intrigued by the events occuring in Russia at the time, such as the protests of revolutionaries such as Lenin and their subsequent executions. He is now a fanatical Marxist and, though still believing in Discipline and Co-operation, will stop at nothing to make sure that Democracy has a more marxist presence.

    Name: General Frank Bascoe
    Allegiance: Royalist
    Age: 45
    Date of Birth: 2nd July, 1887
    Marital Status: Married; 2 Sons.
    Children: Michael Bascoe (12); Frederick Bascoe (17).
    Ethnicity: White American
    Home State: Texas
    Occupation: United States Royalist Army General/Officer
    Religious Views: Catholic
    Biography: An experienced American Commander who has served within the American Army for 28 years, he often prides himself in his smart and tactical demeanour and his survival on the battlefield. During his first few years within the army he was assigned to the rather dirty theatre of Mexico where he was key in helping to right the Mexican Rebels until his sudden transfer during World War 1 to the Allies front lines in Germany. He experienced the pain of seeing his fellow comrades fall against the rapid machine gun posts of the Germans during the time in which he was a Colonel. Nevertheless his quick promotion to General was fuelled by his ingenious plan in the Second Battle of the Marne whilst commanding the 3rd Infantry Division, holding fast against the German offensive to win the day for the Allies.

    (OOC: Yeah I used Admiral Kolchak, what of it?)
    Name: Admiral David Michalski
    Allegiance: Royalist
    Age: 41
    DOB: January 3, 1892
    Marital Status: Widowed (his wife died shortly after the birth of his only daughter)
    Children: Alexandra Michalski (12)
    Ethnicity: Polish American
    Home State: Michigan/Maryland
    Occupation: Admiral turned Royalist General
    Religious Views: Roman Catholic
    Biography: Michalski was born in 1895 to a family of lower class immigrants from the Russian-dominated part of Poland. Expected by many to become a poor factory worker when he reached career age, he performed stunningly well in school and received a full-ride scholarship to the UKA Naval Academy in Maryland, as he had always displayed an interest in joining the military. A brilliant tactician, he proved exceedingly adept at naval tactics, attaining the rank of Midshipman by the time he was nineteen years old. Three years later, at the start of UKA involvement in The Great War, he had risen to the rank of Commodore, taking command of a small flotilla of three destroyers. In the brutal naval warfare seen in the North and Baltic seas at the time he forged his name in blood, proving himself to be a man of great courage, even taking control of the heavy guns of his own flagship, (the HMS Lancer) after the officer in charge lost his arm to a German shell. His tactical skill and sheer fearlessness and ferocity on the battlefield earned him the title of Admiral at war's end.

    When? He said the USA was a monarchy, yes, but he never said that it was a WEF continuation, or if he did I didn't see it and will posthaste change my post.

    A mix of both scenarios.
    That's Barry's description of this game, where "both scenarios" = WEF 1936 and Three Kingdoms. e.g. timeline and setting of WEF, but military commander playstyle of Three Kingdoms.

    He may have said that it was a mix, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's WEF tinmeline.

He lost everything one fateful day: his friends, his education, his life. He ran away, where he was picked up by a theater director and began his career as an actor, eventually moving on to Hollywood. However, fortune took another bad turn, as soon after, news of civil war took America by storm, and the studio that hired him closed for good.

    Name: Lady Dorothea of Naxos
    Allegiance: Rebel (Insurrectionists)
    Age: 40
    Date of Birth: 1893
    Marital Status: Widowed
    Children: None
    Ethnicity: Greek
    Home State: Michigan
    Occupation: Duchess of Boston
    Religious Views: Orthodox Christian
    Biography: Born to a minor noble family in Greece, she was sent to the United States to be educated during her early teens. She met the late Duke of Boston, Gerald Butler and immediately fell in love with him. Even though he was much older than she was and already married, they became very close to each other and met occasionally in the Duke's palace in Boston. Their romance where a secret kept between them until it was uncovered in a local Tabloid newspaper. The ensuing media attention forced her to leave the United States and return to Greece. For several years they lost contact with each other while Dorothea continued her education as a humble veterinarian.

    With the death of the Duke's wife, she returned and married him. Almost immediately, their fairy tale romance turned upside down, as her husband revealed his true self; an alcoholic and a wife beater. Thankfully he was away most of the time, the economic situation of the country and the war occupied most of his time, but when he returned he relieved his stress by abusing her. Her unhappy marriage was made worse, by the Duke's inability to properly consummate their marriage, as he was "wounded" during his time in the army. Nevertheless during her free time she would visit the city orphanages and food shelters on Royal visits to avoid her husband. It was during this time that she came to contact with a fringe group of radical reformists within the Royal government. One of its member's a father Joseph Francis, converted her to their radical reformist organization.

    Understanding her importance in their bid to control the industrial state of Michigan, the Insurrectionists placed special emphasis on her, by educating her to the politics of the country, and even going so far as to assassinate her husband, without her knowledge.

    With the collapse of the government, the December Insurrectionists gave her control of their operations in New England.

    Name: Virgil Weatherby
    Allegiance: Royalist
    Age: 45
    Date of Birth: 1888
    Marital Status: Single
    Children: NA
    Ethnicity: American
    Home State: Ohio
    Occupation: General
    Religious Views: Catholic
    Biography:
    Virgil Weatherby is the cousin of decorated war hero Roscoe Weatherby. Virgil always deeply admired his cousin - he never missed a Cleveland Naps ball game, and he learned to love his country above all else from Roscoe.

    When Roscoe enlisted at the outbreak of the Great War, Virgil ran away from home and tried to enlist as well. He was turned away due to his poor eyesight, but a sympathetic officer found him a position as an artillery corpsman, where he managed supplies for American guns in California and Turkey. Virgil grew to view the American Army as equivalent to the American nation, and resolved to serve both for the rest of his life.

    Virgil hates the Left as much as he loves the military and the country. He believes that the government is not extreme enough in its policies against Leftists, and is quite elated that the Reds have revealed themselves, so he can squash them like the insects they are...
