These are the collected writings of the Laganites - a group of disparate souls brought together by conspiracy, misfortune, and chance on a nameless island.
The players:
Dame Jetsam, a woman, of uneven education and background. The victim of a shipwreck. Initials P.O.
Sir Flotsam, a man, of some mental instability. A further victim.
Doctor Detritus, a physician, erstwhile resident, connoisseur of opiates. Sometimes known as Ingram.
Ariel, a dog (or close enough to it) familiar with the island's longterm residents,
Agent Minutiae, a blunt instrument,
The Black Captain, of the Juno (by name Waite)
and
Reverend Debris, a player of the Game.
Status unknown:
One ELAINE GRAHAM of London, acquaintance of Jetsam (fond or otherwise);
One CAPTAIN MIRANDA, proprietor of the light house and sufferer of great pressures;
