Gwendolyn 'Gwen' Gallivant

Horatio 'Horry' Hootenanny
Horry is the family's resident jokester and amateur magician, whose unpredictable pranks often cause more confusion than amusement. His fascination with 'disappearing acts' has led him to 'borrow' valuable items, keeping everyone on their toes.

Izzy is a struggling pulp fiction writer who finds dramatic potential in everyday life, constantly jotting notes in her worn notebook. She claims to be researching her next bestseller, but her characters often mirror her family members, with predictably grim fates.

A retired jazz musician with a past as complex as his improvisations, Jazzy's weary eyes hint at untold stories. He claims peaceful retirement, but occasional calls from old contacts and a vast collection of vintage records suggest otherwise.
