Coldford City aka The Shady City consists of several different areas, each Hell bent on protecting its own lot. Each has its heroes and villains. It’s up to you to decide which is ultimately good or evil.
THE PENNS: MAIN
Arguably one of the most influential families in Coldford. Hailing from City Main, they carry with them, royal titles. The Marquis de Penn, gifted the land where Main now stands several centuries ago, set up for his lineage to grow in strength with every generation.
King REGINALD of Penn and Main rules with his triplet sons, MARCUS, REGGIE and SIMON, learning the ropes. With his wife QUEEN RITA by his side.
The Penns have had to survive a long time in the shades of Coldford so they’re no stranger to ditching the crown and getting their hands dirty.
THE MACKS: BELLFIELD
Unlike the Penns, the Macks are a working class family. The rule Bellfield from their whiskey distillery.
Led by BRENDAN MACK, supported by his five sons, the Macks of Bellfield are a charming bunch. They are also quite notorious. Bombings, assassinations, riots and football thuggery are just some of the things they carry in their reputation.
THE BERGMANS: KINGSGATE
The diamond merchants came to Coldford from Levinkrantz quite recently in their history. Patriarch, HOWARD BERGMAN, is a gentle man and who finds the idea of war appalling. His sister, SOPHIE congenitally deaf Law Maker, feels differently and has much more bite.
Howard has worked hard to keep his family safe by not getting involved in the violence of the place. Trouble is, that spread is likely to find him one day. He can’t avoid it forever.
THE OWENS: ABBOTSFORD
Loud, rambuncious and with an aim that never misses.
Led by Captain Charles ‘CHICK‘ Owen aka The Cappy, the Owens have always gone from strength to strength. They are ustoppable for most in that they have no moral code. There is not a low they won’t stoop to.
The Cappy’s only son, Bernard ‘BUDDY‘ Owen, is the son and heir and boy is that an issue for the Owen INC CEO. Buddy is not like his father. He is more interested in frat boy shenanigans with his KAPPA SO bros.
Will he toe the line and become the ruthless captain of industry his father is, or will he lead Owen Inc to a completely different future? Either way, the city waits with baited breath.
There are many more families in Coldford all with their grudges and alliances. For more check out the Knock Knock series, free to read HERE.
