BREAKDOWN
BYRON — mid-40's/50's. A large brute force of a man, personality can flip from understanding to terrifying in an instant. Deeply wounded underneath all those walls.
ANGLER — mid-late 30's. Endlessly sympathetic and curious. Analytical. A lawyer. Where Byron is all strength, he is all heart.
TOMLIN — mid-40's/50's. A woman dealing with immense heartbreak who will stop at nothing to get her life back in order. A knife of a human. You do not want to be on her bad side.
MARYANNE — mid-40's/50's. A woman who runs her bar, working on having a maternal instinct though it doesn't come naturally to her. Will do anything to protect the ones she loves. Always finding busy work to do.
NOLAND — early/mid 20's. Wide eyed and open hearted, endlessly naive. Caught between boy and man. Desperate for love. Is cursed and can never leave his home town. Both romantic and terrified at all times.
THE SHEPHERD — early/mid 30's. A stoic man, quiet and contemplative. Oozes sexuality without much effort. Spends his days tending to his sheep. He begins to wonder if there's more to the world than his work.
