Behavior
Your father George (the famous international fashion designer), had four sons and was proud of all of them except you, and made no secret of that fact. While your other brothers are rich, successful and confident, you are very shy and a bit pathetic. You’ve never had a job and lived in your father’s mansion all your life just surfing the Internet and watching videos. A few days before his death, he even threatened to chuck you out of the mansion. Your father couldn’t stand your dress sense and your lack of style, and you couldn’t stand the fact he always sneered at you. You also suspect he has given financial aid to your brothers, helping them with their success. You have no friends and find it difficult to socialize. The only person who understands you is Alexis. He is like the big brother you never had, watching out for you and protecting you from the ranting of your father. Alexis shared the family mansion with you and your father Valentino (a.k.a. Gert Goosen)
Behavior
You and George were lovers for five whole blissful years and you loved him dearly. You always had a thing for older guys and although some people lift their eyebrows at the 25 year age difference, you did not mind at all. Since George tragic murder you haven’t been yourself. You can’t stop exercising and is more over the top than ever. You are a famous fitness instructor and your relationship with George is well publicized. Your training DVDs have sold all over the world and you’re a gay icon (or so you like to think). You are a millionaire and don’t need to depend on George for money, unlike most people that live in his mansion. You’re very camp, you’ll admit it but that’s why people love you. You ain’t gonna play it down for no-one. In your eyes, George had lots of hangers on. Several worthless people who lived off his wealth, two in particular are sitting round the table, Alexis and his pathetic son, Markus. Sonja Craffort
Behavior
George worshipped you; he always had you leading the catwalk for his latest collections and because he adored you so much you called the shots. However, your relationship became somewhat strained a few weeks before his death as he was beginning to set his sights on a new number 1 model elsewhere and that was unacceptable. You are an international supermodel, and everybody wants a piece of your glamour and fame and you know it. The media love you but speculate over your “Diva” like attitudes. You truly believe being beautiful means you can have anything you want. And if that means the penthouse you are staying in being re-built to face the sun – so be it. You’re demanding and spoilt, you look down on people unless they are rich or very famous. You have your rule never be seen with anyone who wears an outfit costing less than R50, 000.00. Alexis MacFag
Behavior
You were once the most talked about fashion designer, especially in the late 80’s. You were in your early 20’s when you began designing mod and punk clothes for boy bands like “In Sink”, “Best Life” and “Toy Zone”. As you got older, things were never the same. But you refuse to grow old disgracefully. A couple of years back you tried to shock the fashion world and salvage your reputation by designing a 'raw-meat' fashion range. It was a disaster and the fashion critics had a ball of a time tearing your designs to shreds. But even negative publicity is good publicity. George thought you showed courage if not talent, so he offered you a partnership in his Business. Yet so far you never designed anything that amounted to much. Les Vegas
Behavior
You and George both attended University of Stellenbosch together and you considered yourself one of George’s best friends. After varsity you both part ways, and it was only when George made name as a fashion designer and you were a struggling cabaret act that you began to associate yourself with him and try and bask in his glory. Unfortunately he didn’t really want much to do with you. George invited you for dinner one night but you only embarrassed yourself. You are always referring to what good friends the two of you were and how George gave you free clothes before they were even in the shops. A bit of an exaggeration, he gave you a suit once to shut you up but you hate grey so you died it yellow. You love all things American, but you wish George had returned your calls. You started your career as a cabaret singer in Europe and the States, and was quite successful, but not for too long. There days you’re struggling, performing your act at local venues. You believe you’re the man about town, ladies love you and you have a fantastic fashion sense. But you don’t! Jack 'The Ripper' Gilbert
Behavior
You are the leader of a dangerous gang in Hillbrow that rules the streets of Johannesburg, including Sandton, with protection rackets and drug deals. Anyone who poses a threat to you and your business is very quickly wiped out the picture, simple. You married and have a family but have numerous affairs. You know George as he donated a large amount of money to your “business” to befriend you all for his own protection. However, he was getting a bit slow on his payments and recently you discovered his sexuality which didn’t put him in your good books. He may design nice clothes, but you think he is messing with nature. Now he’s dead, you’re hoping to influence his son who inherited his money to invest it the same way as George. That’s the only reason you’re here. |
