Because Ghost Quartet is obscure enough that I should basically make an OC sheet. Includes basic summary/plot of the Ghost Quartet canon (spoilers under the cut).
name: Rose Red
age: ā36ā (??)
occupation: salt-gatherer/photographer/(...)
appearance: There is nothing especially notable about Rose. She is just as she appears in the icons: a short redheaded woman.
notable: A good thing to know is that she's got a convoluted past of weird reincarnations. Current-Rose remembers the prominent details of the four relevant lives.
personality:( personality )summary:Ghost Quartet is a song cycle/musical that is reminiscent of telling ghost stories around a fire and the plotline is confusing to work out from the songs alone, especially on first listen.
Rose Red is sister to Pearl White, and they lived by the sea. She fell in love with the Astronomer, and she wrote him a poem about the stars, but he stole her work and published it in a prestigious astronomy journal that he was editor of. Rose grew to hate him, and then Pearl caught his eye. Enraged, Rose ran into the woods and asked a great bear to maul the astronomer and turn her sister into a crow. The bear asked for one pot of honey, one piece of stardust, one secret baptism, and a photo of a ghost in return. To get them, she travels and reincarnates through four generations, in which the four souls of Rose, Pearl, the Bear, and the Astronomer all intertwine. (

( GQ spoilers ahead )All that being said, the default Rose I use to play is Rose Red herself, not any incarnation, post-canon. Iām open to flexibility though.
