Location
The Bad Gator
The Bad Gator is a local dive bar. Owing allegiance to no real culture, and pandering to no crowd in particular, TBG is a rough place known well by the locals. Owned and operated by a tough old woman named Momma Call, The Bad Gator like it’s namesake, may watch you swim on by, or it might chew you up and spit you out.
Locals
James Crocker
James Crocker is a direct descendant of Marie Laveau II, The Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. A powerful practitioner, he recently returned from spending a few years studying in Haiti. Equal parts talent, charm, and con man, James is one of the last of his line. James has been managing the Bad Gator for the past few months.
Lucy Beckett
Lucy Beckett is a known associate of Crocker. Even where other seemingly casual companions come and go, Lucy is almost always seen at Crocker’s side, or vice versa. Nothing is known of the girl’s past, or relationships before she returned from Haiti with James.
John La Croix
The enigmatic man calling himself La Croix is a new figure to New Orleans. La Croix is a caretaker at the St. Louis Cemetery, but what more he is remains to be seen.
Rosaline Baptiste
An immigrant from Haiti, Rosaline spent most of her adolescence on the streets of Haiti before being adopted by a woman named Brigitte Baptiste. Rosaline received money, care, and an education from the woman who otherwise remained a mystery to her.
Brigitte Baptiste
A wealthy heiress from a fortune old enough that no one seems to remember where it came from, Brigitte Baptiste is herself a mystery. A woman typically out of place in Haiti, but with a commanding presence that can’t be ignored.
Justin Rameau
Justin was a childhood friend of Rosaline Bapsiste, and in New Orleans, a sometime rival of James Crocker. Justin’s remains were found by New Orleans PD. His body is scheduled for Autopsy with Dr. Saint.

Farah Gabriel
Farah is a Hounsis, an Priestess in training under Jenty. She has travelled with her from Haiti to help her teacher with an important task.
Papa Jean
The man called Papa Jean is a drifter in the New Orleans area. Prone to violence and destruction, rumored to be tied to various criminal activities, Papa Jean has thus far avoided incarceration, if only because he has a knack for disappearing before the authorities arrive.
Dr. Peter Saint
Dr. Saint is the lead physician at the New Orleans Coroner. A strange man who typically holds his hours in the evening, Dr. Saint usually handles the most gruesome or unusual cases that come through the office.
