Concept 1: Lady Barrington (In Progress)
Wherever the Queen's flag is raised, her armies are known. The Wentworth family has served the crown for hundreds of years, with a proud tradition of military service all around the globe. Colonel Samuel Wentworth served in her Majesty's 5th Dragoons, and retired to his family farm in Sussex only a few years ago- in his career he served in India and the North American colonies. As with many career officers, he married early, and he brought his family with him to his various postings- alas, his wife was perpetually sickly and his only child was a daughter. Still, on the frontier, he could be indulged the eccentricity of raising that daughter as he would have a son- to the amusement of the regiment, young Annabelle was taught to ride, to survive in hostile territory, and to shoot like a soldier. While she was born in a house on the banks of the Ganges, she was mostly raised in the North American colonies, where the 5th Dragoons guarded the borders from Frenchmen, Spaniards, and native troublemakers alike. While Annabelle's mother rarely left Boston, Annabelle herself traveled as far west as the French outpost of St. Louis. She received a traditional education in what passed for 'civilized' society along the East Coast, but she loved the outdoors more. After her father retired with a knighthood and a small pension, Annabelle was married to Lord Arthur Barrington, a fairly minor nobleman whose estates were in the colony of Virginia. Less than a month after the marriage, though, SOMETHING came out of the woods on the edge of the estate. Lord Arthur and several of his men were devoured. Lady Annabelle was not- because she had a loaded revolver close at hand, and her husband's rifle. Whatever had caused the carnage was badly wounded and fled into the woods- two days later agents of the infamous Order of Shadows arrived on the estate to investigate, and to pursue the beast- for the Order has agents wherever the Queen rules. The agent in charge was impressed by Annabelle's cool head, and recommended her for consideration. With her husband's death, his estate reverted to his family (at least for the time being) and Annabelle returned to England- though her father's country estate held little allure, so she stayed in Londinium and sought out the Order...
