Character Info
Name: Isobel Martin
Canon (if applicable): The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
Canon point (if applicable): Just after the her last appearance in the novel
Background, etc:
Isobel is not a real name, but it is the name the woman who bears it has used for almost 20 years. When she was about 18 years old, Isobel ran away from her name, her husband and her short-lived home with him in France. By chance, she met a man in London when her train was late and fell in love with him. She thought he returned her love, and he tried his best, but it was never quite the same. They lived together for a year, in 1883.
He became caught up in a project - a traveling circus unlike any other, interwoven with true magic. The circus is the site of an ongoing contest between magicians. Isobel, who can read true fortunes with the tarot but is just discovering her ability, volunteers to go and pass information back to him. Reluctantly, he agrees to the plan. She finds in the circus a home she didn't expect, and several deep friendships, but she builds her life on the expectation that once the contest is over, she will go back to her magician and they will have a life together.
16 years later, Isobel still looks 20 despite being nearer to 40, the contest has ended, and more or less everything that could have gone wrong in the meantime has. Isobel walks away and doesn't look back, but doesn't yet know where she is headed.

Upon arrival in Chicago, your character will find themselves in Rogers Park on the north side of the city, with an iPhone connected to a network that only seems to allow them to contact a limited number of people. Good luck!
The game will officially open on Saturday, June 21. Until then, feel free to post in the OOC community or comment around on the CR post. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, and have fun!
