Bruce Jarse, early 30's. A nightclub bouncer from Sydney, Australia. Growing up Bruce had only one dream, to be an actor. Having left school and landing a reoccurring role on popular Aussie soap opera "Home and Away" Bruce came very close to achieving his dream. He was starting to get noticed and there was even talk of him being the next Mel Gibson. Unfortunately an episode involving a high speed car chase and a bag of cocaine put paid to that and Bruce saw out his next 2 years from a prison cell.
Bruce arrived in New York last week under tragic circumstances. His younger brother, Hugh, who had been staying in New York was found dead in the lions cage of Central Park zoo. What he was doing there is still a mystery, although housemates say that in the days preceding his death he had been plagued by nightmares of lions.
Bruce's own nightmares began while on the flight to New York, becoming clearer and more defined with every mile. His dreams plagued with visions of destruction and death. Something was urging him to stay in New York, even with his brothers remains loaded on the flight home he could not escape the overwhelming feeling that he was supposed to stay and fight.

I hope this character isn't too boring. Michael I can't put my character's name in bold, can you do it?
I haven't been here for the past week...it's been a busy time (seems to be universal). We're getting close now!!! How exciting! I can hardly wait for this journey to begin!
Hey...Dreamscale! Fellow Arizonian!! Get your butt in gear and get your character posted! lol
I just got through reading through our character lineup again and Sandra our Dream Maker has a lot of good pieces for her dream weaving specialty!!!
I love words and the fact that when the page is blank...there's nothing there until words are formulated in my brain. Those thoughts...rushing through my viens and out my finger tips, find "life" on the page.
When people and places come to life...that to me is exciting.
MBCgirl =) My finger nails should look nice while I type - Red works!
Jack Stone (35) is a motivational speaker, and real estate mogul. He graduated from Cornell with a 4.0 GPA, while starting at QB all 4 years. He is extremely intelligent, a natural leader, and has a way of influencing those around him.
Jack’s wife and 2 young children were killed in a freak car accident in early 2006. Shortly after, the dreams began…dreams of an impending evil, of utter hopelessness, and something far from human.
Since then, he has travelled the world, searching for the answers to the evil that haunts his very soul. Jack also continued his speaking engagements, and had quite a following leading up to the day it all went so terribly wrong…the day that “It” finally made its presence known.
I just wanna let you guys know that I'll be going on a tight schedule these next few days. I still wanna participate, but I don't wanna be overwhelmed. How often will we be required to write scenes?

Jack’s not about to give up now.
I'm getting this "Once Around" with Richard Dreyfuss vibe happening in my head with Jack Stone being someone who's really smooth, but terribly troubled. How does someone like Jack balance his slick demeanor with the pain and questions that haunt him?
I like the character and the name. I believe a whole lot in names denoting a lot of influence even before we write a single other attribution to the character. Jack Stone is memorable.
