You arrive at the party. They are ...

They invite you to lunch in a castle, but never show up. Next time you see them their excuse is...

They have been irritating you lately so you insult them. How do they react?

Something has come between you and them ... What is it?

They turn up one day with a present for you. What is it?

They want to tell you a secret. What do you suspect it is?

Turns out they lied behind your back about what you did on Saturday night. How do you react?

What's their best quality?

They have invited you to travel with them on a jaunt of leisure. Where are you going?

You mention the importance of 'fate and destiny' to them. What do they say in reply:

Iago

Iago


A cunning friend with a penchant for deception. Great for gossip, terrible for trust, Iago is frenemy number one and Shakespeare's greatest villain. Every situation is on a knife-edge with Iago around.

Brutus

Brutus


Brutal is as brutal does. As a frenemy, everything is cool with Brutus right up until the moment it isn't. He's one for surprises; one who can wow a bunch of strangers with his poetic and persuasive turn of phrase. Either way, there's no guarantee you'll make it safely back from the forum...

Lady MacBeth

Lady MacBeth

She can be icy cold to those on the outside, but really once you get to know Lady MacBeth, she's *super* lovely. She's ambitious, knows exactly what she wants, and, if you pull off a scheme together, it's like the fates themselves are smiling upon you both. Best not to ask questions about the blood.

Ophelia

Ophelia

Ophelia is all class. Emotions on show for the world to see and a romantic. She asks for nothing and hopes for loyalty. When Ophelia does vengeance, she's often misunderstood.

Polonius

Polonius

What a talker! What a schemer! Polonius lays out the cards for everyone on the table. An arch manipulator he is not and that's precisely why you think you're safe with him on your side. Just refuse to be a courier for him. RE-FUSE.

Mercutio

Mercutio

Mercutio, Mercutio, Mercutio. You couldn't ask for more from a loyal friend really, but he is a little unstable and sometimes things get a little out of hand. One minute, you're best friends and everyone is laughing. The next minute, there are bodies everywhere and Mercutio is one of the slain. Leaving you all alone to figure out romance for yourself - bad Mercutio!
