Jordan’s mask of sweetness and humility hides a deep resentment for the way he’s felt under-appreciated his entire life.
MACY (mid 20s/early 30s, open ethnicity)
Macy is witty and confrontational. She presents herself as strong and unflappable to hide her nervous insecurity.
LORIE (mid 20s/early 30s, open ethnicity, SILENT ROLE)
When she was alive, Lorie was loud and outspoken, at the edge of being cruel. As a ghost, she’s weighed down by guilt for the ways her actions hurt the people she loved.
