The Characters

The dramatis personae for M is for Nottingham? are being re-invented into life by participants from around the world.  The characters time travel to Nottingham via the WWW to make preliminary investigations, share information with other sleuths, discuss the mystery of Nottingham and write new segments of the story.  At the forthcoming Incubation 2 Conference at Nottingham Trent University in July, players can choose to don costumes and be a part of the live scene of the denoument.

You can create your own character, choose an unclaimed character, or you can follow the linked names to find out more about available characters!
