Fletcher Bishop

Fletcher is a recently awakened member of the party, marked by the Eye. He works at Florist & Forest arranging bouquets and helping around the shop, as well as a part-time gig as a notary. Son of Father Bishop and a member of the Catholic Church of Rye, he can be found typically tending to their community garden. Former center-back football player in school, he went to Uni in London getting a bachelors in Environmental Science with a specialty in Conservation and a minor in Religious Studies. Had a "long term boyfriend" during his time in Uni, but it seems that wasn't the full truth.

## Appearance

Fletcher's appearance very much reflects his Greek roots, with thick dark brown curly hair, which is usually kept fairly short and tidy, warm tan skin, and a well-shaped mustache. She wears glasses due to an incident as a child, where during a solar eclipse, young Fletcher ignored safety precautions, leading to permanent damage in his vision and a change in pigmentation in his left eye. Standing at 6'2" (188cm) he has an athletic but slim build, and a smattering of freckles across her skin from his time out in the gardens. Typically, she dresses rather reserved and traditionally, but had a small streak of doing drag in Uni, though he hasn't felt comfortable bringing that to Rye.

## Relationships

### Abigail "Abby" Simmons

The two became friends in secondary school, a random seating arrangement bringing them together. The duo found they worked well together in the lab, and become friends out of it too. With Abby's building passion for film and acting, and Fletcher's sheltered upbringing, they bonded over movies, watching them became a regular tradition. Fletcher used to help Abby practice lines, reading out the other roles in the script, through that and their regular movie nights, Fletcher became quite skilled at impressions. In getting closer, Fletcher learned about Matt, and Abby's struggles, and in time, as Fletcher became Dafni's primary caretaker, the two leaned on each other for emotional support, two children forced to grow up too quickly. They often walked Matt home together, and found solace in those quiet nights under the stars, in reassurance that they weren't alone in their struggles. Occasionally, they saw eyes from the woods, never quite understanding what that meant. Since Abby's departure as an actress, Fletcher has been nervous that she's too cool for him now, and swallowed his problems out of nerves, leading to tension between the two now.

### Mischa Palmer

Two friends in imagination, the two first were valiant knights on the playground, battling monsters and slaying dragons at the ripe age of five. When a young Jacob tried to bully his best friend, calling him ugly, Fletcher stepped in, balling his hands into fists and telling Jacob that not only was that mean, but also a bad word, and also, wrong, because Mischa was beautiful! After being told the classic 'If you think they're so beautiful, why don't you marry them?' Fletcher refused to step down from the challenge, gathering a bouquet of daisies and marrying Mischa under the domed playground structure--- which was later dismantled after two kids broke their arms on it. They were inseparable throughout primary school, with a hideout under the slide where they'd use sharp rocks and sticks to carve their names in. As they grew older, they slowly grew apart, Mischa struggling with becoming, and Fletcher being pushed into the role he was expected to fill. Whilst they hung out periodically through secondary school and college, when Fletcher left for Uni the two didn't keep in contact, leading to them not getting to know each other as adults. As they've reconnected, Fletcher has been slowly getting to know his friend again, sometimes frustrated with the level of protectiveness Mischa displays, he recognizes how much both Mischa and Kitty have protected her over the years, and deep in his chest builds the urge to protect them in turn.

### Blair Hills

Fletcher's first and only ex-girlfriend, sometimes Fletcher feels that she's the only one who understands how confusing feelings can be. He still holds her dear to his heart, and tries to attend her shows as regularly as he's able to, though since leaving for Uni that's been less and less. The two dated for some time before realizing that they were just good friends who felt pressured to date, and Fletcher looks back on their relationship amicably. In truth, Blair is the only party member Fletcher doesn't mask at all around currently.

### Ziggy Cain

Originally members of the same youth group, Fletcher has always enjoyed Ziggy's company, it often being the only thing to get him through service as a young child. As he got older and more anxious, Ziggy found a joy in toying with him, teasing him and being generally disruptive during service, the pinnacle of this being Ziggy getting the entire youth group unknowingly drunk before service. Despite this, Fletcher was always quick to come to Ziggy's defense, though until his mid-twenties, the idea of being around drugs and substances made him incredibly nervous. He's had a crush on Ziggy for quite a while, and finds comradery in struggling with their shared religious upbringing being largely shattered by the existence of the entities.

### Levy Tate

Finding Levy a bit frustrating, Fletcher doesn't understand their relationship with their Leitner, urging the other to destroy it. This formed an early point of contention between the two. Additionally, Levy's generally private nature and knowledge of the entities lead Fletcher to interpret them as intentionally hiding knowledge and using it as being condescending and frustrating. She does however respect their care and commitment to Ward and Mischa, and is grateful for Levy helping to look after Mischa, and finds them formidable.

### Tall Nick

A little shit, Fletcher asked far too many questions and got grabbed for it. Having just learned of the Buried and meeting him in the tunnels, Fletcher tripped over his words, referring to Tall Nick as a "burrow creature" which he still thinks there is something to. He's okay with killing Tall Nick, but it's also His First Murder.
