JONATHAN CALLAHAN | 46 | CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYER | BLUE BLOOD played by: Ewan McGregor Landon's loving father. One of his best friends. Excels at the glom. Born and raised in Ireland, but moved to NYC to live with a family friend during his sophomore year in high school (right at the beginning of his sunset years). Stayed here through high school and college, but moved back once Keeva was pregnant so his mum, Elizabeth, could play an active role in raising Landon. He's diplomatic and charming, intelligent and hard-working, though he still knows how to have a good time. He did extremely well in school, receiving top marks in all his classes, and was one of the most popular boys in school.
KEEVA GALLAGHER-CALLAHAN | 42 | BRAIN SURGEON | BLUE BLOOD played by: I had no ideas for this one. Your choice! Landon's loving mother, one of his best friends just like Jonathan. Loves to cook. Parents were from Ireland as well, but moved to NYC before she was born. Therefore she was raised in NYC her whole life, but moved to Limerick with Jonathan when his mother insisted that she be around to help raise Landon. Personality wise, she's quite an oddball for NYC. Sure, she likes expensive clothing and all that jazz, but unlike all the other mums in the city, she doesn't get her hair dyed, her nails done or get fake tans. She likes money, but uses it for other things. She's hardly one to get angry about things, let alone get caught up in the social politics of Blue Blood society. She was a very independent-minded girl in high school, though she still found a way to be an active part of Duchesne life. That's one of the things Jonathan loves about her so much. She was always the brilliant girl, the one who was more focused on her grades than parties. Everyone knew she'd end up being successful - a hunch that was only reinforced when she became valedictorian of her graduating class - and so she was the prized possession of the Gallagher family. All the parents wanted their sons to be with her because she was smart, and all the sons wanted to be with her because she was beautiful.
ELIZABETH CALLAHAN | 74 | RETIRED | BLUE BLOOD played by: Holland Taylor Jonathan's uptight mum. She and her late husband were born and raised in Ireland, only living in NYC for their Sunset Years. So when Jonathan and his new wife, Keeva, moved in just before Landon was born and it was all too apparent just how much success they'd found participating in Blue Blood society, she took an avid interest in it and is now bordering on obsession. She constantly nags Landon to spend time with the "right" people and is always reminding him that image is the most important thing. In all honesty, she's Landon's worst nightmare and the reason he now has an alcohol problem. He curses the fact that she's living in NYC with them and tries his best to ignore her, though of course that's not always feasible. You would think someone who worked with horses for a living would be practical and conservative, but once she arrived in NYC, Elizabeth became fascinated with designer brands, acrylic nails and hair dye. She and her friends - though Landon can't possibly comprehend how she has them - are constantly out shopping, hitting the salon or gossiping at some Upper East Side cafe.
LANDON NEEDS A CONDUIT! | 19-21 | PREFERABLY A STUDENT AT COLUMBIA | CONDUIT played by: Totally up to you! Personality doesn't really matter, as long as they mesh well with his personality. His conduit is, logically, his best friend in the entire universe. It would be nice if they were strong-willed like him, so that they'll have some tussels on occasion, but try to avoid making an all-too-sweet do-gooder - that probably would only blend with him by the roleplayers' doing, and therefore is not much fun to RP. Gender doesn't matter, he gets along just fine with either. Logically, they have to be pretty close to his age so try to stick with about 19 years old. Other than that, have a free for all and I'll love you for ages and ages if you make him/her (:
LANDON NEEDS A FAMILIAR OR TWO! | 18-24 | REDBLOOD/FAMILIAR played by: Totally up to you! Girls only please, he's straight in this cycle. It's obviously illegal for him to be going after anyone at Duchesne who's not in their senior year, but 17 years old can be an exception. But be realistic - he's got too much of an ego and too much success with women to be desperate enough to go after 16 year olds or younger. Besides, he's not that much of a perve. Personality doesn't matter, that's totally up to you!
