DR JOHN BROOK - Male identifying, 30, any ethnicity. Intelligent, curious, empathetic. In awe of Dr. Noakes, but capable of standing up to him. In love with Elizabeth.
ELIZABETH NOAKES - Female identifying, Early 20s, any ethnicity. Though suffering from a chronic illness (cardiac insufficiency), she never concedes. Devoted to her father Dr. Noakes, and to convincing him that she is well and happy. Were she healthy, she would more than likely be attempting to pursue an education and career available only to men. Her personality is as captivating as her father’s voice — she is utterly charming.
ALICE PARKER - Female identifying, mid-late 20s, any ethnicity. Servant girl without family. Attractive enough to catch the eye of well-to-do men with anemic morals. Autodidact. Her intellect exceeds the expectations of her class. Naïve, but a fighter.
MRS KEENE - Female identifying, 50s, any ethnicity. Nurse. Assistant to Dr. Noakes in his care of Elizabeth. Dedicated. Her potential has been thwarted by her gender, but she has found a certain degree of satisfaction in working with Dr. Noakes — more than any other employment would offer.
FETTES - Male identifying, 35-45, any ethnicity. Grave robber. Considers himself to be a businessman. Prison employee. Runs several illegal enterprises, but since the (fictional) addendum to the Anatomy Act, his time is now taken up with resurrecting. Small to medium stature; lean, but muscular like a lightweight or welterweight boxer.
