Percy Taille

Percy is the eldest of the trio. Despite having white hair, he's only in his mid-thirties. He's the only one who remembers most about his past. And he'd rather not talk about it, either.

He wears the same outfit every day: a long, gray trench coat, black pants, and matching fedora. He's not too big on buying new clothes like his siblings--perhaps because of their mysterious past. He's a stickler for money, although he makes sure they always have more than enough money to survive the early 1900s New York.

Percy would do anything to allow his siblings to have a great life, although he would never tell them that. He wants to keep his title of "big, intimidating brother" rather than show off his warm 'n cuddly side. But he's sure that side of him has disappeared by now.

Who is he? What is his mysterious past like? What happened to him to make him the way he is today? Nobody, not even Mildred or Pip, knows.

Clyde "Pip" Taille

This multi-talented guy is Clyde, or "Pip", as many call him. Just like his sister, he likes to experiment with the Jazz Age styles. However, unlike his sister, his good-looks and flamboyant personality wins him dates to local juice joints.

Although he isn't a scrooge about money like Percy, Pip knows how to make ends meet. His favorite songs to listen to are the ever-popular Big Band and swing music that come out around that era. He enjoys playing the piano, especially complicated pieces like "Dizzy Fingers" or "The Charleston". His one regret in life (if he has any) would be that he never learned to play the accordion.

Pip is a practical joker, focusing most of his pranks on his younger sister, Mildred. But whenever the tables turn on him, Pip is annoyed and doesn't find it fun anymore. At least until ten minutes later when he draws mustaches on Mildred's portraits.

Mildred Taille

This is Mildred. She enjoys the finer things in life, and takes advantage of being a modern. Having her hair cut short and using rich and exquisite makeup is one of her ways of conforming to society.

Although she does consider herself a flapper girl, she has a hard time landing a date with anyone, but that doesn't stop her from heading out to the bars late at night with some close friends.

Mildred is never satisfied with her hairstyle, and spends hours upon hours torturing it to look good. However, she remarks that it is still better than when she had long locks as a child.

Beginnings


A family of moderns living in the ever-changing hustles and bustles of life in New York. Where did they come from, and where shall they end?
