The Landlady

The Landlady
You live in Providence, Rhode Island, in Ma Shanks’ Boarding House. A three-story building, where you run things on behalf of Ma Shanks, the elderly owner of the property.
You are widowed and now it’s just you and your 11-year old son Tommy, who you love very much. You wish to find love again, and perhaps you have.
James Gardiner is a tenant who has lived in the boarding house for around two years. He has utterly captured your heart. True, he’s not acted to reciprocate your love but deep down, you know that somehow he loves you too. You are the only one in the boarding house that he
spends time with, the only one that he talks to, even if your talks are rare.
Should anything happen to your adored tenant you would rain down vengeance on that person. No one would escape your wrath if he were slighted or injured.
You would do anything within your power to seek that person out for special punishment.
Strangely, James has not been seen for two days, although that’s not unusual. He prefers to work and makes his own meals in his room. But, despite your knocking, there’s been no answer at his door. You are getting concerned and some of the other tenants appear to want to talk to James. So you have agreed to unlock the door to his room, to check he’s okay

Roleplaying hooks:
• You have a personal desire to make sure James
Gardiner is okay.

brothers and sisters who are hard workers, with
jobs in the city.

Setup a character sheet and apply it to the game, then fill the numbers from this sheet. I can help once the character is applied if you need it.

I've created and applied the character. I'll work on a post for the set up thread and post today.

The applying character doesn't seem to have worked. Can you give it another go?

I think it worked this time. Let me know if you don't see it.
