The Elders
Craig - Julius Caesar has nothing on his guy. It’s his way or the highway and he’ll use your own virtue, wants and desires against you in a manipulative and vengeful way. You won’t see him coming. A Christopher Plummer type.

Patricia – A Cleopatra matriarch, but will let you know that she’s controlling you and you will still go ahead with it anyway because she’s just that good. She has that presence about her.
Thomas - The brains behind the group and teacher of the children of Family. A rules-are-rules, no BS kind of guy, or you’ll get the whip. The holder of the towns knowledge. Small in stature but strong in presence.
Sarah - This lady believes everyone is good but will not spare the rod either. Committed to being Mom to Family and keeper of secrets. Bohemian type peace-loving sees good in all but can be a force to reckon with.
Erik - The softy at heart and a bit of a pushover that will get himself and the rest in trouble if not watched carefully. He means well and loves everyone but is naive and a bit of a pushover.
