The Ringmaster: The illustrious master of the circus. He appears to you and tells you what you shall become. He appears different to every person as he is a phantom. Rumored to have been dead for many years and is little more than a ghost in human shell.

Enero, Juggler Extraordinaire: Exactly what he says he is. Trainer of jugglers and cocky as the Devil himself. He dresses in finery that has been through hell. Tattered trousers and a dull silk shirt are his trademark as well as the scar that bridges his left eye, a mark from his former master, reminding him never to drop the knife again. Has attained all 4 tattoos. Will toss objects at his proteges to measure their skill level and abilities to handle distractions. Long fingers, blue eyes. Short cut dark hair

Merch: Tumbler trainer, a strong, well toned woman of indeterminate age. She never smiles. Clad in leotard and ready to go, she bears all 4 colors of beads in her long black braids. Will break her pupil's bones to make them more flexible if they refuse to comply with her instructions.

Ink: Tattoo artist and trapeze trainer. He is fully capable and willing to drop a student to their death for the fun of it. He works without nets and will not conceed to placate a student. If the pupil is truly fit for trapeze, they will not fall to the ground, but find a new way to be in the air. Has fallen many times but it is rumored that he is indestructible. Theme song: Back in Black - AC/DC.

Barsol: Illusion master. Well regarded and highly sophisticated. Not much is known about him. He wears a mask and cape at all times. Prefers to be called Marquis.

Terrina: Beast tamer. Covered in scars well earned from her years at the circus. She is invaluable as a trainer and animal caretaker. Will not come to a pupil's aid if they provoke the animal into attacking. If they deserve it, they deserve it. Her one defining feature is a lion tail that sprouts from her spine and is fully functioning. It was given to her by her first lion and she and he are one spirit.

Chet: Stage hand. He teaches all the lessons that are required to become a stage hand. He smiles too much and often drops lights on people who dont respect his job. One too many pupil has been killed in this way.

*note: you guys can play these characters, just keep in mind that they cannot be in two places at once save Marquis because he seems to have real powers. Also the ringmaster is omniscient because he is the master and he knows all.
