OTHER GUEST LEADS
KELSIUS
Jacob Kell's half-brother and former student. Unbeknownst to Duncan MacLeod,
he shares in the delight of having more than Kell's record of decapitated Immortals
on his record -- that's 700 Immortals beheaded! He's a mix between Kell himself
and The Kurgan, half savage and half dictator. Although on the outside he's
your average immortal, inside he is the sign of the devil himself. Like Kell,
he wants to inflict pain and misery on friends and lovers of Immortals he hates.
However, unlike Kell, the kill is better than the suffering -- if you can call
that honorable, so be it. He also thrives on betraying the trust of those he
uses to gain an advantage against his enemies. Accent: American/British, whispery.
HEATHER WALLACE
A blonde-brown haired Scottish scientist who wants to alleviate Duncan's nightmares.
A descendent of Sir William Wallace, hero and revolutionary against 13th-century
England, she finds an attraction to Duncan, who had met William's great, great,
great, great, great, great grandson in 1602. Accent: Scottish, gentle
HIGHWAYMAN
After getting humiliated and having his stolen money taken away from him by
Duncan and Connor MacLeod back in the 17th century, the Highwayman joins Kelsius
in pursuing the MacLeods after realizing his own immortality. He acts like a
dumb and irritated yet sometimes calm walking giant with long hair (originally
played by Adam Copeland "The Edge" from WWF). Accent: American, deep-to-mid,
coarse
Rachel MacLeod
A mortal descendent from the Clan MacLeod. A red-headed and beautiful bar keep
on the shores of Loch Shiel. She has come to know Duncan as a possibility of
being the town hero who slayed evil Viking warrior, KANWULF, who killed Duncan's
father and pillaged the area for centuries. She always has time to assist Duncan
whenever he visits. Accent: Scottish, sharp
JENKINS AND ERIN
A male Watcher (Jenkins) and female Watcher (Erin) who want to prevent
Kelsius from taking more heads, like the "monks" who protected the
Sanctuary. The "Prize"is not to be obtained, and these rebel Watchers
will interfere with the game as they please. Sometimes they seem uncomfortable
yet funny together. Accent: American, forceful
