the widow

a sad role for good society

To love and to lose, what a fate. You are an interesting member of society now, as a widow. Everyone is curious about your circumstances and your former spouse, but not you. You’re tired of sitting and waiting - for love, for life to happen, for happiness - as you have all these years. Sometimes fate lends you an opportunity to start anew, and start anew you must! Your first marriage was one of convenience, at best, so perhaps this time you can find love. A tall order with a reputation such as yours. Scandal surrounds not only your past, but your former spouse. You must secure a future for yourself, and happiness. One must not forget happiness.

This role is based on one of my characters, Imogen, and inspired by my fellow players at the table. You know who you are, you wonderfully sad people you.

This role is also deeply inspired by Woolf Society: Percival and, naturally, Taylor Swift.
