So you've got 2 choices! You can sign up as a canon (which are listed just below),
or you can sign up as an original. It really doesn't matter which you choose, so long
as they're AWESOME and you don't disappear like a douche bag, got it? As always,
canons have already got a story and assigned occupation (most are exhibitionists or
big tent show players).
Originals can go quite a variety of ways though.
1) Newcomer-runaways can barely be joining the circus or considering it and sign up for a job later.
2) Runaways that are already acclimated at the circus and therefore already have a job.
3) Simply be a visitor from the city the circus is currently in.
* Also, just another side note, all the circus employees (except for some said exceptions) were once runaways.
Alright, so on with the canons!

the
RINGMASTER
MAGNUS REMORINI
---
Appears very young, however in mirrors his true age
shows to be that of an extremely old man with a beard
to his thigh. At first meeting he seems very kind and
really quite appealing, but in truth there is no question
that he has some tie with the Devil, or that they are one
in the same. Many of his employees loathe him, but fear
the man too much to do anything about it. He is known
to transform employees into "freaks" for his circus, yet
whenever outsiders ask people of the circus about their
owner, they are magicked to only speak highly of him.
( currently unplayable )
the
SIRENS
--- --- BEAUFRET • ADRIANA LIMA
BRENA MIKAELA PRITCHARD • DOUTZEN KROUS
--- --- CORTESQUE • SELITA EBANKS
---
Remorini's beloved assistants. These three women are
very alluring and extremely cunning. They are often seen
with him during shows and outside of them. Their words
and appearance are sweet, but their motives are the
complete opposite and can be quite brutal. When you hear
a singing voice in the air that no other can hear, then they
are trying to lure you into their trap.
the
VAN TANGO DUO
--- --- VAN TANGO • HEATH LEDGER
--- --- VAN TANGO • HEATH LEDGER
---
These two twins are the leading clowns of the entire circus.
During shows they work well together, however out of them
they are surrounded by tension. Methos Van Tango is considered
the better half of the two, though he is often quite depressed,
but is always willing to help the runaways. Murdoch Van Tango is
the scruffier of the two, he's quite dirty in more ways than one,
and is known to smell of cigars and booze.
the
SWORD EATERS
LEANDER ROY CARTIER • MILO VENTIMIGLIA
CHARLOTTE CARINE BESSON • HAYDEN PANETTIERE
---
Two best friends found themselves trapped within their small French
town, so they ran away to the circus. Out of the goodness of the
Ringmaster's heart, he kept them together, making them both sword
eaters.
the
WOLFMAN
JACKSON CHET SKELTON • HUGO SAUZAY
---
He was once a normal person before running away to the
circus. After joining, he was one day called in by the Ringmaster
and told that he was going to be promoted. Sadly, he didn't
know this meant he was going to be transformed into the dangerous
Wolfman. Ironically, only on days where there is a full moon he
turns back into human form, the rest he is stuck in beastly form.
He considers himself a freak, sadly disgusted with himself, and
carries the most hatred for the Ringmaster.
the
MERMAIDS
ARIANNA CADENCE REED • GEMMA WARD
ADELINE CAMILLE REED • JESSICA STAM
AIDEN CAROLINE REED • SASHA PIVOVAROVA
---
A group of sisters that ran away to the circus to escape their
horrible father, ended up getting turned into mermaids. None of
them are able to change back into normal form, yet they remain
very sweet, caring, and nurturing.
the
TRAPEZE ARTISTS
--- --- FISHER • CATHERINE MCNEIL
GUINEVERE AMELIE HORTON • SUSAN ELDRIDGE
--- --- CHORLEY • EMILY CATTERMOLE
ADELAIDE BRUNHILDRY CLARK • ROSIE HUNTINGTON WHITELY
DIMITRI TOBIAS BISHOP • RYAN TAYLOR
--- --- DUNSTAN • JAMES FRANCO
--- --- MASON • VICTOR NORLANDER
--- --- QUINTS • MATHIAS LAURIDSEN
---
However cocky they all are, they've a reason to be for they are
extremely devoted to their craft and are really quite good, boasted
to be the best in the world. They usually stick to themselves since
they consider most others unworthy of their presence, but if any-
thing they will interact with the Ballet Dancers and Acrobats.
the
MAN OF STONE
--- --- HUGHES • MARCUS HEDBRANDH
---
One of the oldest members of Remorini's eccentric circus. Was trans-
formed by the Ringmaster on his 21st birthday as a gift. His entire
body is of stone restricting his movement but still possible nonetheless,
however at night he automatically turns back to human form.
the
MAGICIAN
HOLDEN CASTOR WILLIAMS • GASPARD ULLIEL
---
A very smart and kind fellow, extremely skilled at his craft and a
bit of a smooth talker. World-renowned for his illusions, but
not one who boasts about it. Since he is bound to the circus, he
takes great pleasure in exasperating the Ringmaster, and because
he is so amiable and has managed to accumulate a lot of authority
among other circus members, the Ringmaster considers him a threat.
the
BONE BREAKERS
REMINGTON DAVID LEWIS • BOYD HOLBROOK
--- --- MILORAD • COLE MOHR
--- --- MCGUFFIN • TYLER RIGGS
--- --- KNOX • JOSH BEECH
RHETT OLIVER KNOX • ASH STYMEST
MOZART JOSEPH CADBURY • LUKE WORRALL
--- --- MEIKLEHAM • ABBEY LEE KERSHAW
SASKIA MARIE STEINWEDELL • HEIDI MOUNT
NORA SATURDAY NEWBERRY • KAYA SCODELARIO
---
This entire group is naturally extremely flexible, and can contort their
bodies with ease. They are know to be quite mischievous and are
often caught goofing around.
the
DANCERS & ACROBATS
--- --- POLLOCK • LOUIS PRADES
DERRICK KINION WELCH • KEVIN FLAMME
--- --- WHARTON • NICHOLAS CHABOT
--- --- DODD • JEREMY DUFOUR
--- --- TURPIN • MEELI MULLARI
--- --- WERDICT • AMINA KADDUR
MYJA RHYS BENNETT • CINTIA DICKER
--- --- WATKINS • CAROLINE WINBERG
--- --- TURNER • ELINE HELENA
--- --- VARRE • EMELIE WOLD
---
The dancers are expert at their ballet craft and acrobatics, and are
very graceful. They often work with the Trapeze Artists in shows
and hang out with them, however they are not as arrogant and
are slightly more kind.
the
ELECTRIC WOMAN
CLARISSA FAE FOSTER • GANTZ GILLES
---
Was transformed to have the power to control electricity, and there-
fore do such things as powering a light bulb with just a finger and no
added tools to assist her. Though she is known to be very quiet,
not much of a people-person and often considered mysterious or
mystical. Because of this she just owns a booth and very rarely
performs during large shows.
the
STRONGEST MAN IN THE WORLD
THATCHER REESE ROBINSON • WENTWORTH MILLER
---
When he first joined the circus, he was very scrawny and frail. How-
ever growing up there, the Ringmaster took a particular liking to him,
sometimes even considering him a son, and transformed him into what
he is today. However this ability has made him very arrogant, and he
thinks himself to be a ladies' man though he often turns out to be a
womanizer. When --- transformed into the Man of Stone, he grew very
threatened by it and thinks him as a rival although --- doesn't share this
view.
the
FIREBREATHERS
--- --- OLLERTON • GUNTARS ASMANIS
DEON SLADE BROCHTRUP • MARLON TEIXEIRA
--- --- JOHNSON • GARRETT NEFF
--- --- SAVAGE • JOEY KIRCHNER
LIAM FINNIAS BOSTROM • NICK SNIDER
BRUCE CHARLES CRANHAM • EDWARD NORTON
---
Basically human dragons, though they don't necessarily breathe fire all
the time, they can do so at will. They were transformed by the Ringmaster,
and are considered to be his henchmen. They are the "though guys," as
rough as their exterior's make them seem, though can be seen during shows
where most if not all of their tricks somehow incorporate fire.
the
WOMAN WITH GLASS TEARS
CLEMENTINE IQRY RHEINGOLD • CLEMENCE POESY
---
Ran away to the circus at a young age, and because she'd signed a soul-
binding contract, she could not go home to her family no matter how much
she cried. Since she was known for shedding so much tears, the Ringmaster
changed them so that after a few seconds they turn into diamonds -- however
the public is told it is glass so they don't try to steal them. She has grown to
be very stoic because she hates crying for the Ringmaster's needs, and this
often leads to him beating her.
the
THE FAIRIES
--- --- CAPPER • DARLA BAKER
--- --- BOBBIN • TONI GARRN
--- --- WORTZEL • ANNA JAGODZINSKA
--- --- KAMPO • NATALIA VODIANOVA
--- --- VANE • ANNA SELEZNEVA
--- --- SMITH • EMMY ROSSUM
--- --- MIDGEN • HEATHER MARKS
--- --- WINTERING • GEORGIA FROST
---
All were once normal height and then changed by the Ringmaster into 6-inch
tall people. They are extremely annoyed by this and even more annoyed that
they are always on display. Their biggest pet peeve: people that tap on the
glass.
the
WHISPERERS
GRIFFIN LIAM CROAKER • ARIAN DALLE LASTE
--- --- JAPPIL • BASTIAAN NINABER
KINSEY ANYA HITCHENS • KINGA RAJZA
---
They are known as the whisperers as they can twist words to make any animal
or plant (depending on their forte) comply to their wishes. ---- [JAPPIL] whispers
to plants, while the other two can whisper to animals. All three feel more
comfortable with each other or with their animals or plants than with other
human beings.
the
JOURNALISTS
--- --- BURKE • clement chabernaud
RUSTY JAMES CHAMBERS • jensen ackles
FRANCESCA CECILIE QUIRKE • anna lutoskin
---
These three lucky people are not apart of the circus, but are rather reporting on it.
They are each from a different paper or magazine, but all three have been assigned
to follow and stay with circus during their tour this year. Quite obviously, the ring
master is a kiss ass and the actual workers are a bit detached due to certain
restraints placed on them about what they can and cannot say about the circus. Let's
see if these three get their answers.
