War is raging around Messina, but that doesn't mean you can't have a break, right? Soldiers Don Pedro, Benedick, Claudio, and Don John return to their hometown amidst the chaos to catch a much-needed break from the war around them. Add in the two charming cousins Beatrice and Hero, and you have a set recipe for disaster. And with tensions rising as the war takes a turn for the worst, loyalties shift, lovers quarrel, and friends get pit against each other.

Name: Beatrice 'Bea' Leonato
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Demisexual
Appearance: Beatrice is tall and curvy, and surprisingly muscular. She has olive skin and dark brown hair cut at about shoulder length, a strong jaw, and warm brown eyes.
Outfit: Brown pants, some army-issue boots that she really shouldn't have possession of, a red long-sleeved shirt, and a brown jacket.
Personality/Key Traits: Beatrice is quick-witted and can range from snarky to downright rude at times. She's brash and proud of herself to the point of it being called arrogance. She has a fierce devotion to those she loves, especially her cousin Hero, and will do anything to protect them.
Can I be Hero? Imma make my little soft bae into a soft bae with sass and intensity like no other.
Wondering if I should be Claudio.

YESYESYES!!!! You'd be a great Hero!!
Lol. Right after that seems like it means something.
Wondering if I should be Claudio.
YES!!
I'd say you'd be a great Claudio or Benedick, but you have the authority of Don Pedro.
I thought you'd be Benedick Eris.
Cuz you're snarky in a good way!
lol I digress.
But Hero needs some….sprucing.
It's what Will would want
Which ones are the old man and untrustworthy lord?
Leonato is the old man, I don't think I have him as playable but you can play as him, he's just not a super major character.
Don John is Prince Untrustworthy.
And now you know how I learned this.
It's what Will would want
Will Power! I am the will of the people now!
Hero and Beatrice are cousins…. same last name or no?
Uhhhh it's up to you I guess? They don't have last names in the play, if I remember correctly….
Indeed, which is why I asked. :)
