Chelsea
Urania Kate Chattan: Like the famous hotel she was named for, Chelsea is a living
embodiment of all things different. Shes an artist, a rebel, a poet and a witch.
Jubal is her best friend in the world and she would not trade him for anything. She has
great power in her, magical power. Chelsea moved to New York City three years ago, but now
something is pulling her back. Could it be the Chattan Curse? "Life is like Sanskrit
read to a pony." - Lou Reed |
 |
Alexander Jubal McRae: Jubal,
in his mid 20s, attempts to lead a fairly care-free and contented life. He is one of
two DJs that work at the local radio station, WEDN - AM. Jubal is a kid at heart,
literally. He is just as happy playing with his action figures, reading comics, or
shooting hoops as he is anything else. "Is it not strange that sheeps guts
should hale souls out of mens bodies? - William Shakespeare (Much Ado about Nothing, act 2, sc. 3). |
 |
Paul Winston McRae: Jubal's
brother is one of the new Republicans. He likes to make money and speak freely in public
too. Hes always there with an answer, or a helping hand, even if you dont need
it. Knowledgeable in almost everything Paul hardly lets an opportunity go by to let people
know it. Yes, he would be a know-it-all if he wasnt so likable. The three most
important things to Paul are Cynthia (his wife), his brother, and golf. "There is no
chance, and no anarchy, in the universe. All is system and gradation. Every god is there
sitting in his sphere." -Ralph Waldo Emerson |

Cynthia Marie Angeline Thalia
Monroe: An atypical dumb blonde, Cynthia is Chelseas half-sister and Pauls
wife. She doesnt have a brain in her head, but shes got a heart as big as the
whole outdoors. "I have to give a personal quote? Oh my. . . life is like a bowl of
cherries. I dont know why it is, thats just what Ive always heard. Is
that okay?" |
 |
Henry Philbin Wald: On the
outside Wald is a jerk. Hes pretty much one on the inside too. He does have loyalty
going for him. He wouldnt desert his "loser" friends in a crisis.
Walds bitter outlook on life stems from his outward appearance. A babe magnet he
aint. So, instead of bestowing love upon others he verbally yanks their hearts out.
At least thats his answer to the quandary of his disposition. "You want a
quote? Screw you. There you go. Youve heard of the Eight Fold Path? Life is
suffering, yada, yada, yada. Heres my path. Life Sucks!" |
 |
Benjamin Douglas Monroe: A
retired Marine Colonel, retired CEO of a major corporation, Ben now looks onto just plain
retirement and wonders what in the hell he is going to do. Big Ben as close friends
call him, is conservative to a fault, but he is fair and honest to all. He commands
respect. Even Chelsea respects him, though she wouldnt admit it. Ben and Chelsea,
his step-daughter, get along about as well as God and the devil. They do not agree on any
subject. "Everyone has a game plan, just make sure yours is the one that wins the
game." - BDM |

Diane Erato Hunt-Chattan
Monroe: Diane is the mother of Chelsea and Cynthia. A hippie in the 1960s,
Dianes views have changed little over the past thirty-odd years, but her status has.
She was just about dead broke when she met Ben and with two children to feed, Diane
said yes to the marriage proposal. She always respected and admired Ben, but it has only
been in the last few years that she can say she was in love with him. "Familiar acts
are beautiful through love."- Percy
Bysshe Shelley |

Ruth Netta Chattan:
Chelseas Grandmother, Ruth is always in the kitchen making something good or conjurin
a spell or two from her recipe book (Book of Shadows). A witch with great magic,
Ruth pretty much leads a simple life. She asks for nothing of others, but always demands
of herself. Chelsea being the next witch in line, Ruth has taken it upon herself to steer
the girl right. She must also watch out for signs of the Chattan curse. "Go
away." |
 |
Sarah Jayne Simmons: SJ
prefers punk/ metal bands to the more traditional rap and pop her peers are into. She is
also the other DJ in the small coastal town of Haven. She has the night shift and likes
it. Shes spunky and has a strong will of her own. To cross her is to have your teeth
shattered, but few really make her mad. "Free at last, free at last, God almighty,
Im free at last, now lets get the hell out of this place!" - MLK jr./ SJS |
 |
Sebastian: A Russian Blue, he
is the only other soul in Ruths big house. He is not exactly her pet, but he is her
familiar. He is curious and regal. He genuinely loves his family, but gets testy when he
hasnt had his nap time. "meow." |
