Character 1
Benjamin Guggenheim
Age
30-55
Gender

Description
Benjamin has convinced himself that there are no gentlemen left in the modern world, so he excuses himself to behave like an animal. Coming from old money, he has never worked a day in his life, which makes even the most elegant affairs feel trivial to him. Instead, he spends his time playing with people, manipulating their minds and pushing them to the edge. It’s a sport he has become quite good at.

Leontine is misunderstood, a dangerously alluring succubus who will stop at nothing to get what she wants. Lately, however, what she wants is love, a family, and a baby. She has wasted her best years waiting for Benjamin to leave his wife, and this voyage is his last chance to make a commitment to her, or she is gone for good.
