DianeFemale40-60 y.o.All ethnicities

Diane is a dedicated housewife to her daughter and husband. She cooks, cleans, etc. As her child has gotten more independent, she has less to do. She feels lonely and aimless sans her garden, which is her pride and joy. Diane is an avid gardener in every season; she loves being able to get so much harvest from her garden. She also loves her daughter more than anything in the world.

CharlesMale40-69 y.o.All ethnicities

Charles is newly retired. He is tired, slow, and has grown somewhat indifferent towards his wife. An academic type, more interested in his reading than in his wife. Charles loves his daughter, and as she has gotten older, they have become closer and closer. He loves to show her new books to read, and they enjoy teasing Diane, his wife. Charles is a scruffy type, doesn't love to comb his hair or tuck in his shirts, and his guilty pleasure is a cigar every once in a while.
