## Suspects

Most of the backstories given to the suspects are majority the same, with the exception of the removal of the character of Sir Hugh from them and the addition of Mrs. White.

### Colonel Mustard

To the outside world, he is a hero. Colonel Mustard is a highly decorated, successful, and popular officer. However, behind his medals of honor are rumors of black market deals and treason; rumors he's been paying someone to keep secret for too long. Mustard suspects Boddy of being his blackmailer, and eagerly travels to Tudor Mansion to search for evidence...

### Mr. Green

As a suave con man, Green has fronted as a prince, a pilot, a doctor, and an attorney. After years on the scam, trouble has finally caught up with him and forced him into hiding. Thinking that Boddy was the one man to know his true identity, he is immediately concerned when he receives the invitation. Determined to keep his secrets safe, Green accepts...

### Mrs. White

Perhaps no one was closer to Boddy than his loyal and steadfast cook and housekeeper, Mrs. White. But with little to show for her decades of dedicated service, she'd begun to wonder if her decades of dedicated service, she'd begun to wonder if her compensation was adequate. She was feeling particularly underappreciated on the evening of the party, as she labored in the kitchen in preparation for the guests. Was she cooking up more than just dinner?

### Miss Scarlett

Miss Scarlett has always been beautiful, but recently also seems cold-hearted. Boddy and Scarlett had grown up together and been in all sorts of trouble over the years. As they got older through, their friendship became strained over finacncial matters. In receiving her invitation to Tudor Mansion, Scarlett assumed all was forgiven...

### Mrs. Peacock

Her exact age is unknown, and that's just one of Mrs. Peacock's secrets. Peacock rocketed from small-town girl to well-connected socialite. Little is known of her three husbands, other than they all died suddenly. Peacock has called in many favors to get this invitation to Boddy's party. What's on her mind: marriage or murder?

### Professor Plum

Fearlessly tracking down desert tombs, ancient statues, and lost cities, Professor Plum is an archaeologist with a thirst for adventure. Boddy financed all his expeditions, until a huge disagreement ended their partnership. With no excavations on the horizon, Plum was bored. Boddy's invitation, when it came, filled him with hope. He was the first to arrive at the party...
