The Circle

The illustrious Septic Circle members and others...who are they?  Well, if you have bothered to read the stack of diary entries in the archive section then you should have a pretty good idea, but for the lazy/very interested then here are the primary characters in a jagged little nutshell (including links to their profiles where applicable).

The Septic Circle started life in the same way that humans eventually evolved from a complex soup of proteins and goo – i.e. we know it happened somehow, but as for the actual proven details, it’s a little hazier (for the un-scientific anyway...the last Star Trek TNG didn’t go into that much detail, so don’t be judging).  At the start of the last great fad-age of all things paranormal, a random group of strangers drifted together, bound by their mutual interests/insanity/bandwagonjumping/hates/boredom/having nothing better to do.

The circle exploded limply into existence and their weekly meetings have become the focal point for their aptly pointless 'contributions' to this field.  The genesis of the circle will no doubt be chronicled one day...perhaps when enough alcohol has been imbibed.  For now though, here is a brief snapshot.  Very brief.  Look, just read the fucking  archive and diaries already..you'll glean so much more.

The angry, sceptical, apathetic one.
Hair - dark, messy.

Fenwick [profile]
The wealthy, pompous, egotistical one.

Eyes - misty whenever he sees his own  reflection.
Additional: Will go to the opening of an envelope. A really small envelope.

Lysander
The primpy, groomed, slightly bitchy one.
Hair - Brown, neat.
Eyes - On his fancy new mobile of the moment or a firm backside in tight denim.
Additional: Moved by many spiritual, beautiful things, like his pink Rampant Rabbit. Oh...and John Barrowman.

Marnie [profile]
The frumpy, animal loving, soap fan one.
Eyes - Shining over her rattish dog, Marlon or one of her many soap dramas.
Hair - shoulder length explosion of frizz, complete with pink ribbon.

Freddy
The clean obsessed, nervy, soap fan one.

Non Circle

Devon Brawn [profile]
The sceptical, no friends, smug wizard one.
Hair - Pointy and devilish when not hidden beneath 'mysterious' fedora (gift from Grandad).
Eyes - Narrowed and concentrated (when trying to undo jam jars or look mysterious).
Additional: Paranormal hating, television illusionist with no friends. Except mummy.

Ethel
The frilly, room-clearing, floral one.
Hair - A la fingers in socket with flowers.
Additional: Specialises in stomach crippling cakes, sticky jars of jam made from the most hideous fruit combinations, and ext-rahhemmmlllyy boring conversation.

Enid
The gaudy, chunky-sweaters, clone of Ethel one.
Hair - wrench-tightened bun with wannabe wispy bits.
Additional:  Ethel’s hated rival with a speciality of chutneys and other deadly condiments. Has the ability to clear a room faster than even Ethel - lucky people catch the perma-scent of mints and coconuts and abandon ship before she barges through the doors
