Samson Bay - Character Profiles and Setting The Scene.

[superstarbex]

Hey People, I said in my 'hello' that I'd be here to write a script and here it is. Hope you enjoy, please leave a comment or something about the idea, characters, anything.

superstarbex

Samson Bay is a seaside town, the water laps up to a sandy beach where a small cliff stands with an iron railing and twisting path. It leads up to the town where the people may not be as calm as the surroundings.

The town is surrounded by hills and wide, green spaces great for the animal lovers among the residents, but who will be sneaking off to the quiet places?

Anything can happen in Samson Bay.

More to come ... Character profiles and family trees.
