These are characters that we would like to start introducing into the website and into the plots here in Dreamland. Whoever takes them up should find themselves very well informed and having lots of plot opportunities. Playbys are always up for debate!
CANON LIST: 1960
COLT JACKSON: TAKEN
FORTY-SIX YEARS OLD
HETEROSEXUAL
HEAD OF NEW CRIMES UNIT
ROBERT DOWNEY JR.
THE HEAT
PERSONALITY & HISTORY
Colt is brought into Vegas with the singular purpose and mission to clean up the crime that has fed and bred on the streets of the city. He has became renowned as a war hero for his efforts during the Korean War and has been in the public eye shaking hands ever since. Because of all this time in the limelight Colt has grown a bit of an ego; his quest for justice overshadows his inflated sense of self worth as people tend to mistake latter for the former. He has a moral compass, one that generally points true, but his crusade for the corruption clean-up comes more from his desire to make his mark on Las Vegas and enlarge his reputation and influence; he never tells this to anyone, however. He asked to be sent to Vegas with the backing of the government and the military and so he was. Thus, in Vegas he has a standing that goes above the Chief of police and the acting head of Fort Marshal; he has the U.S. government behind him. He holds absolutely no mercy or patience with anyone on the opposite side of the law. He isn't interested in making friends, only in getting results.

MILITARY MAN; FORMER PILOT
KRIS HOLDEN-REID
MILITARY
PERSONALITY & HISTORY
Was/is a skilled reconnaissance pilot and excelled at his work until he was transferred to Fort Marshal; here he still went on recon missions (especially over Cuba during Castro's revolution) but also tested new reconnaissance planes. And then the Incident occurred. He claims he saw something that night, something unnatural fly into the sky. No one believed him. He never stopped investigating that sighting, but such action wasn't approved by his superiors so he has since become a desk jockey. He's become less vocal in his beliefs of what he saw that night; even though he's greatly disheartened by how he's been treated by his superiors and his co-workers he still knows he truly saw something that was above his clearance level.
WENDY HART: TAKEN
IN HER TWENTIES
BISEXUAL
MISS NEVADA
MARGOT ROBBIE
CITIZEN
PERSONALITY & HISTORY
Pagent girl. Recently won the title of Miss Nevada and has been traveling to show off her title and represent her homestate. But, behind her shiny smile and sparkly persona she truly loathes Nevada and everything about Las Vegas--her hometown. She's a kind woman deep down and wouldn't dream of just stepping off her pedestal and disappointing both her family and hundreds of adoring fans. But she dreams of the day when she can put as much distance between her and the desert as humanly possible.
MICHAEL GRAY: OPEN
--- YEARS OLD
ORIENTATION IS OPEN!
ACQUISTION FOR N.Y CORP.
COLIN FARRELL
TOURIST
PERSONALITY & HISTORY
He's been sent by a big corporation in New York to buy up land and buildings (casinos etc.) in Las Vegas in order to get in on the growing success that is coming from gambling in the modern times. The personality can be entirely up to you. He can be cutthroat and ambitious or he can simply just follow orders and commit to his job.

BODYGUARD/FORWARD WOMAN
ODETTE YUSTMAN
TOURIST
PERSONALITY & HISTORY
She works for Michael Gray and the New York corporation. She is mostly Michael's muscle but she's also sent out to towns ahead of Michael to scout out the land and the competition and make initial offers--but only offers that are sanctioned by Michael or the corporation. She is a woman of few words and, even though she is indeed a woman, of intimidating stature, she has to be for her work. She is good with weapons and isn't intimidated by anyone. The New York corporation keeps her around because she unsettles the buyers and the competition. It is our opinion that she and Michael would actually get along well and be close friends, but if you have something else in mind feel free to run with it. She is Native American so that would factor into her history, as well as her being a woman in a male dominated field, but other than that her story is entirely up to you to decide.
RONALD WINSLOW: TAKEN
TWENTY EIGHT YEARS OLD
HETEROSEXUAL
UNEMPLOYED/HOMELESS
THEO JAMES
CITIZEN
PERSONALITY & HISTORY
Some say he's crazy; actually, everyone says he's crazy. But he doesn't think so, he thinks he's the only person in town that actually has a brain as well as some common sense. He's convinced that there's a conspiracy happening at Fort Marshal, that there's more to the Incident than has ever been told, and that there are Communist agents running around town collecting information on everyone. He doesn't trust anyone, especially not the returning missing people. He just knows they're aliens, or people who've been experimented on by aliens. How does he know all of this? Well, he's seen an alien before and he saw it at Fort Marshal. The only way for that to be possible is for Communists to be running the show at the military base, he knows that. But, it's these convictions that have gotten him fired from his job and evicted from his home. He doesn't care, he's adamant about telling anyone and everyone the truth.

HOMOSEXUAL
MECHANIC
OPEN
CITIZEN
PERSONALITY & HISTORY
Not many people approve of her chosen profession, but she's long gotten over such disapproval since she took up her wrench during WWII (more like the end of the War) to help the war effort. She likes working on cars but what she truly loves more than anything is crime investigating. She dreams of becoming a detective and joining the LPVD and Colt Jackson to solve crimes and put scores of criminal behind bars. She's been obsessed with crime ever since she was little and she's always had the ability to notice things and put pieces together when it came to crime scenes and police investigations. Yet, she knows she never will be able to join the police department, no matter how smart she is. But, that doesn't stop her from doing some crime solving of her own.
