Col. Mustard
(Walter Covell)Col. Mustard was once with the Royal Fusiliers in India, but is now retired. He has busied himself since as a big-game hunter, or so he says. He was also a top international spy until a freak accident magnetized the steel plate in his head. He likes to booze occasionally and once killed his brother Reggie for the family inheritance.
Miss Scarlet
(Janet Wong)Miss Scarlet spends much of her time in exotic lands and the rest of her time denying that she was ever there. She ran her own successful freelance spy business (winning the coveted "Mata Hari Award"), but since she went into partnership with Col. Mustard, she's been looking in the "Help Wanted" section every day. She is Swiss and would like to someday open her own gas station.
Prof. Plum
(Jack Neary)Prof. Plum teaches chemistry at a nonaccredited college and on the side he does research in undetectable poisons and explosives, once inventing self-destructing tape. He refuses to use rats in his other experiments, choosing two-legged creatures instead. He's currently wanted for multiple homicide.
Mrs. Peacock
(Betty Lee Bogue)Mrs. Peacock is a respectable married woman fourteen times, having had all of her husbands die under mysterious circumstances. Each time she vows the new husband will be her last, which always comes true. She travels for her health--and a possible new late husband. She is also a kleptomaniac.
Mr. Lyman Green
(Barry Doe)Mr. Green claims to be a businessman, but refuses to discuss the business he's in. He was a salesman for a well known crime family, but a suitcase full of his day's receipts mysteriously wandered away--and so did he. He is good at making things like cars explode and he has never attended charm school.
Mrs. White
(Cheryl McMahon)Mrs. White was the color-blind maid at Boddy mansion for twenty-five years and knows more than she should about everyone. She still falls back upon her job as a maid from time to time, but is doing well now as an apprentice blackmailer. Sgt. Gray is her love child from a relationship with Mr. Boddy.
Monsieur Brunette
(Michael Dell'Orto)Monsieur Brunette is allegedly French, allegedly Mr. Boddy's lawyer, and allegedly needs the eye patch he's wearing. He paid a high price for his foreign accent from a croissant baker on La Rue Nice and always calls himself an "artiste de con" who plans to go straight after just a few more jobs. He adopted Miss Peach in France.
Madam Rose
(Mara Clark)Madam Rose was Mr. Boddy's sister and only known relation. She's an amateur medium with occasional psychic powers and is wanted in 43 states for telling fortunes--and making a fortune--without a license. She is a very cheerful person and enjoys being around people. Her best friend was, at one point, Teddy, a stuffed bear.
Sgt. Gray
(Richard McElvain)Sgt. Gray is a local policeman, or at least he thinks he is. He suffers from amnesia and uncontrolled fits of temper and stole the uniform he's wearing--and the owner's name--when he escaped from the insane asylum. Fortunately, he doesn't usually remember that he's a very dangerous homicidal maniac. He is the colorblind love child of Mrs. White and Mr. Boddy, but was stolen by the gypsies. On his ankle is a candlestick shaped birthmark.
Miss Melba Peach
(Mara Flash)Miss Peach is a crack shot, an expert knife thrower, and is proficient with blunt instruments. She shares a lot in common with M. Brunette, but calls herself a plain old con artist. She supplements her creative career by slinging hash at a local diner and at M. Brunette's restaurant, but yearns for that one big break that will set her up for life--of luxury, that is. She is actually French, but prefers to speak with a Southern accent.
Didit
(Bill Lucas)Didit was Mr. Boddy's butler, but kept a low profile around the house during the weekend when everyone came for the reading of the will. He's a bit of a trickster, and enjoys giving the others a little push--towards running around the house attacking each other. He acts as narrator for the first game.
Inspector Pry
(Peter Kovner)Inspector Pry is an INTERPOL agent who has been chasing the colorful gang around the world after spying on Prof. Plum and Mr. Green in a billiard room in a hotel. He may know more about the characters than even Mrs. White does. He acts as narrator for the second game.
Mr. John Q. Boddy
Dead... again! Unfortunately, Mr. Boddy invited over his six favorite friends one too many times. Will he ever learn? Most of his friends describe him as a bit loony, and that it runs in the Boddy family.
