Ms. Amontillado
You are a very wealthy oil baroness. You own most of the local oil fields and are often sought out for investments (and by men who just want some of your moolah). You appreciate the finer things in life and enjoy a good drink/song from time to time.
Your riches have also come recently from creating a large, new tabloid called “Psst Psst”. You're fun-loving and can be eccentric and you definitely enjoy a good drink from time to time (especially if it conjures up more gossip for your paper).
You’ll consider offers for future investments as you have become a self-made businesswoman. While the main motto behind the Women’s Voter League is sound, to you they still seem to be a bunch of do-gooders that only want to be married and stay at home all day with the kids.
You’ve also hired a very young new reporter, Miss Sherry, to get the inside scoop on a lot of these though you seem to find the best leads yourself.
You know Mr. Galliano has recently sold half of the Ackerman island amusement area to the city and donated the rest. He’s a big-time philanthropist, but you know he has high mob connections – no need to write much about him… yet.
Last Tuesday a large fire destroyed the neighboring Getto Building resulting in several dead (and they seem to be find more bodies each day since then). A portion of the Eaton was also damaged by fire the same night. The owner, Mr. Silveroak, has already made a public announcement of getting it fixed (costing $50K) with folks already on the job. You think this, especially with the new bodies being discovered, would be great for your paper.
With so many characters here and with the strange mystery afoot, this is sure to make the front page. You don’t know where the scream came from as you were in your room, but you’re sure to find out.
You should meet with your reporter occasionally to work together on some leads. You’re much better at socializing with the elite so just do it. You may have to remind them of who you are.
