Marigold Swiftcreek, a Light Domain rabbitfolk cleric. My girlie in our current ttrpg campaign; she's kind of an airhead but a surprisingly competent cleric. Loves dropping Flaming Spheres on enemies and whacking people with a magical cricket bat.

Swiftcreek is a cool lady who can be so gentle to her Clanmates but terrifying to outsiders if she wants. She's Beetlewing's deputy during his leadership and does an excellent job as leader.

Holmes Is Every Man

My loyal readers know that I am a huge proponent of blind casting.  For those new to my column, I am not referring to an open call for Wait Until Dark. Instead, I mean that well-preserved women of a certain age should be considered for all parts -- gender and age be damned.

So, imagine how delighted I was to audition for the part of Sherlock Holmes in Swift Creek Mill Theatre’s Holmes and Watson by Jeffrey Hatcher.  The competition was quite stiff, as the theatre was just littered with Holmes’ wannabees.  In fact, when I arrived, there were Holmes of every shape and size eating together in the dining room.  Just delightful.  Now, I’m not sure why we were all scheduled to read together at 2:30 in the afternoon, but I was happy to view the competition, have time to attend my aerial step class first, and nosh on some pickled watermelon.  

You may be one of those close-minded creatives who feel that characters should look a certain way or that scripts should make sense.  BAH!  I pity you. Who says Sherlock Holmes has to be a specific age?  Why he might be 70 or 15 or anywhere in between! Who’s to say?  He’s a fictional character, after all.  Who says that Sherlock Holmes must be tall or short, thin or stocky? In fact, who says that Sherlock Holmes has to be able to speak, hear or see??  That Conan Doyle fellow, I suppose, but other than that, who says?  And most importantly, who says that Sherlock Holmes has to be a man?  It’s the 1890’s!  Women can smoke a pipe and wear a mutton chop disguise as well as any man!

And I found it just delightful that this new script allows Watson to not remember the weight, height, age, or facial construction of his good friend.  Now, to be fair, there were auditions happening for Watson, as well, so perhaps the actor cast will make different choices regarding Watson’s memory than the actor I saw reading for the part.  Watson was clearly the supporting part, because there were only two auditionees.  I, of course, only bring out my inner testosterone for leading parts, but I can report, to my glee, that apparently nobody knows what Watson looks like either!! The two men auditioning were different in height, weight, and accent!  Honestly, the future of theatre is so wonderful – boundaries are being broken right and left.

You are surely wondering how my audition went.  To be honest, I was actually quite satisfied. Now, for clarity’s sake, I should probably let you know that the script calls for Sherlock Holmes to be in disguise.  Well, I sat in the theatre seats with hundreds of other auditionees, and I am happy to report that NOBODY ELSE THERE THOUGHT I WAS SHERLOCK HOLMES.  Success, indeed!  

The auditions ran for nearly a month, and I have not heard Swift Creek announce the start of rehearsals or the run of the actual show.  However, I will surely let my readers know when the performances are announced.  Until then, I shall be researching how a great detective unwinds with cocaine. What ho!

It doesn't matter where you go. Look around for awhile, and I bet you'll find some graffiti. Some visitors are disgusted. But as far as I'm concerned, it's a good reminder that all the spaces I visit are shared spaces. Others were here long before I came. And others are yet to come or come again. #SwiftCreek #Cougar #MountStHelens #Washington - patreon.com/ericmuhr (link in bio) via Instagram https://ift.tt/2KoCU2o

Commissions I got from @idaida for two of my D&D characters I’m playing in current campaigns!

First is Marigold Swiftcreek, a light domain rabbitfolk cleric and devout follower of Alaunus, the archfey of the sun, healing, and prophecy. She’s traveling with a small party, trying to find out what happened to her village. She’s also kind of a ditz and has recently figured out how to combine her spiritual weapon (which manifests as a cricket bat) to hit her flaming sphere around battle. She has a tendency to making friends very easily, and back in her village, her family would often say she’d never met a stranger.

Kriv is a black scaled dragonborn paladin, and he’s a kind, soft-spoken gentleman, seeming a little shy. He doesn’t usually travel with others, but he recently fell in with an adventuring party heading to the city where his daughter serves as a guard in the Temple of the Everlight. In truth, Kriv is hiding a dark secret in the form of a mysterious force that possessed him several years prior, causing him to kill most of his adventuring party, breaking his oath to the god Torm. Whatever the force, it still lingers, deep in the back of his mind...
