Jo Dove was born into the wrong shape. She’s known that as long as she’s known anything, and almost as soon as she understood that fundamental fact, she learned how to hide it. Boys weren’t interested in fabrics. Boys didn’t pay attention to fashion. Most of all, boys didn’t cry when they got their hair cut short or got their face shoved into the mud or got a whipping by their papa for all those sins combined. Boys kept their chin up and said Yes’m and Nossir and did their chores and ate their scraps and were grateful, dammit, for every word that didn’t come with a slap. Smart boys kept their mouths shut and their eyes open, until they could steal enough money to disappear.

If boys-who-were-girls couldn’t steal enough, sometimes they found a way to make a deal, and they disappeared anyway. Jo’s deal put her in debt to a demon, but it also opened a door out of Mississippi and straight into a new life. Never might fall short of paradise, but it’s miles better than where she came from, and it brought her to the first taste of home she’s ever known in the arms of the Silk Rose and Madame Dellaphina Jones. She still has a debt to pay. Someday, the devil’s going to collect. But until then, she’ll make the best of this life with her voice and her body and all the charm the good Lord gave her.

Albert DuCarmont

Site Canon Character
Bouncer & Maintenance Man
Human · 30s-40s · Male
FC: David Dastmalchian

Site Canon Character
, , ,

Albert DuCarmont is a man who keeps his head down and his fists ready. As the bouncer and handyman at the Silk Rose, Never’s rough-and-tumble saloon and brothel, he’s seen just about every kind of trouble a lawless frontier can offer. Drunken brawls, sore-loser gamblers, men who think “no” isn’t an answer — Albert handles them all with the same steady, unshakable presence. He isn’t the fastest gun or the sharpest tongue, but he is strong, reliable, and not easily rattled.

Yet, despite his simple outlook, Albert isn’t blind. There’s something wrong about Never, something that prickles at the edges of his instincts. He’s worked in plenty of towns, but nowhere else have shadows seemed too dark, or whispers carried from empty rooms. He’s seen men walk into the night and never come back—but no one seems to grieve them. He’s heard laughter in the Silk Rose that didn’t belong to any living throat.

Albert doesn’t have a name for what’s wrong with Never, and he isn’t a superstitious man, but he keeps an iron nail in his pocket and a Bible under his bed. Just in case.

Sally Ducker, aka Allie

Site Canon Character
Prostitute
Human · 20s · Female
FC: Florence Pugh

Sally Ducker — Though at the Silk Rose, everyone knows her as Allie — is a young woman with sharp eyes, a sharper tongue, and a knack for making men believe she’s exactly what they want her to be. She came west from New England chasing excitement, adventure, maybe even a little notoriety. What she found was Never, a town that hums with secrets beneath the shuffle of boots and the clink of whiskey glasses.

Allie plays the game well enough to keep herself safe: Smiling when needed, teasing when useful, disappearing when it’s best. But she didn’t come all this way just to scrape by in the Silk Rose. Her sights are set on the Pearl, the town’s high-class gambling hall and brothel, where the women wear silk instead of threadbare lace and the clients leave real gold on the nightstand. If she plays her cards right, she’ll get there.
