If we do the Scottish Play, I could play MacDuff, and if Les Mis, than I could play Enjolras, the co-revolutionist beside Marius. Does that work?

Wait a moment while I wright up a rough draft for our plot, and put up a list of characters needed. For right now, I will have 5 spots open, and expand upon it as needed.

I lied a tiny bit, I put them all down. I'll convert to NPC as needed.

So what I have here is the description of each character and their involvement in the play. I'm going to hand these over to you guys, and you are going to fill in the blanks (though the blanks are merely suggestions for change or place holders for character names). Since they are merely suggestions though, you are free to change, delete, and add to any of the characters.

However, this is not exactly first come first serve. I want to like what you've done with your version of the character first.

In fact, I think what the system will be, is that whose ever profile gets the most likes, shall be the one to play that role. Let's get cracking!


Jean Valjean- @N/a, Good Hearted Neutral Criminal Type
The protagonist of the novel. Convicted for stealing a (insert item) for his (insert poor receptor) and sent to prison for five years, he is paroled from prison nineteen years later (after four unsuccessful escape attempts added twelve years and fighting back during the second escape attempt added two extra years). Rejected by society for being a former convict, he encounters (Bishop Myriel character), who turns his life around by showing him mercy and encouraging him to become a new man. While sitting and pondering what (Bishop Myriel character) had said, he keeps away a (insert cash item) dropped by a young wanderer. Valjean threatens the boy with his (insert weapon) when the boy attempts to rouse (Valjean character) from his reverie and recover his money. He tells a passing priest his name, and the name of the boy, and this allows the police to charge him with armed robbery – a sentence that, if he were caught again, would return him to prison for life. He assumes a new identity (insert here) in order to pursue an honest life. He introduces new manufacturing techniques and eventually builds two factories and becomes one of the richest men in the region. By popular acclaim he is made (position of local power). He confronts (Javert character) over (Fantine character's) punishment, turns himself in to the police to save another man from prison for life, and rescues (Cosette character) from the (Thénardiers characters). Discovered by (Javert character) in Paris because of his generosity to the poor, he evades capture for the next several years in a convent. He saves Marius from imprisonment and probable death at the barricade, reveals his true identity to (Marius character) and (Cosette character) after their wedding, and is reunited with them just before his death, having kept his promise to the (bishop character) and to (Fantine character), the image of whom is the last thing he sees before dying.
Javert- @N/a, Neutral or softly Dark Side Hunter Type
A fanatic (Hunter occupation type) in pursuit to recapture (Valjean Character). Born in the prisons to a convict father and a fortune teller mother, he renounces both of them and starts working as a guard in the prison, including one stint as the overseer for the chain gang of which (Valjean character) is part (and here witnesses firsthand [Valjean character's] enormous strength and just what he looks like). Eventually he joins the (force of some type) on the small world identified only as "M". He arrests (Fantine character) and butts heads with (Valjean character's new identity), who orders him to release (Fantine character). (Valjean character) dismisses (Javert character) in front of his squad and (Javert character), seeking revenge, reports to the (person of superior position) that he has discovered (Valjean character). He is told that he must be incorrect, as a man mistakenly believed to be (Valjean character) was just arrested. He requests of (Valjean character new identity) that he be dismissed in disgrace, for he cannot be less harsh on himself than on others. When the real (Valjean character) turns himself in, (Javert character) is promoted to the (superior force) where he arrests (Valjean character) and sends him back to prison. After (Valjean character) escapes again, (Javert character) attempts one more (hunt) in vain. He then almost recaptures (Valjean character) at (residence of Thenardiers) when he arrests the (Thénardiers characters) and (a wanted group). Later, while working undercover behind the (fortification), his identity is discovered. (Valjean character) pretends to execute (Javert character), but releases him. When (Javert character) next encounters (Valjean character) emerging from the (underground), he allows him to make a brief visit home and then walks off instead of (finishing) him. Javert cannot reconcile his devotion to the (hunt) with his recognition that the course (of the hunt) is immoral. He takes his own life by (method of death).

(Valjean character) learns of her plight when (Javert character) arrests her for attacking a man who insults her, and sends her to a hospital. As (Javert character) confronts (Valjean character) in her hospital room, because her illness has made her so weak, she dies of shock after (Javert character) reveals that (Valjean character) is a convict and hasn't brought her daughter (Cosette character) to her (after the doctor encouraged that incorrect belief that [Valjean characters's] recent absence was because he was bringing her daughter to her).

At (Marius character's) request, she finds (Valjean character) and (Cosette character's) residence for him and sadly leads him there.

As she is dying, she confesses all this to (Marius character), and gives him a letter from (Cosette character).

Place me where ya wish, but I would like these parts in the Les Miserables. I'm able to work with most things and since I own the movie, I've memorized most of the songs(should be able to convert those to star wars).

@[member="Kallion"] All spots are free! Just make anyone of them (even ones not listed up there) from the play, and just twist them into star wars :)

You don't even have to use the format I used above.
