I'm interested. I have a few characters in mind just for this sort of thing too.. They are similar in period and location but they will probably need to be tweaked. I'm also making a few more. i'm currently in the process of beefing up my character compendium sooo..

She was also rumored to be a ring leader to a criminal outfit known as the [i]Burgundy's[/i], a small gang made up entirely of women. These women were alleged to have been the cause of many disappearances in the area. They were all known swindlers and turncoats, cutthroats and pickers.. Theories surrounding them include a long string of poisoning incidents which may or may not be linked to the group. Also said to be responsible for a number of cons and other business related crimes. It is unclear who the members of the group are, and the exact number of members is also unknown at this time. Abigail is highly seductive, and is extremely manipulative. As a manager at the Black Swan, she is well known and extremely connected. She is very good at talking, and negotiations tend to bend in her favor, especially when dealing with the opposite sex. She was also known to be very unforgiving on the girls who worked under her thumb. The brothel was a very lucrative establishment, even in the hardest of times.. And the hardest of times was the norm on Burgundy.. Where there was a coin to be had, Miss Abigail would have it. The girls under her authority dubbed her "The Duchess" on account of her ruling nature, but she did take care of them. Under her cold façade one would find a love for them buried somewhere within her soul. It would be a hard find, and an arduous journey at best. The girls were afforded protection, and guidance from Misses O'Connell, but it was not without a price either. Oh no... everybody pays up on Burgundy, even Abigail had someone to pay up to. She was no exception.. There were none..
