The Caine Family
 |
| Anthony, Thérèse and Françoise Caine |
Funds: §19,000
No one who saw Anthony Caine in high school would ever believe that he'd manage to snag a prize like Thérèse Arsenault, but he somehow pulled it off. Little Françoise has joined their family, but what does the future hold? Thérèse is ambitious but Anthony wants her to be family-oriented.
Anthony sometimes imagines a different life. One where he feels he has a home. And where he feels Elizabeth. Feels he *has* Elizabeth...that's what he meant.
Traits
- Handy - he can build a deck and a baby cage!
- Neat - Elly loves this about him
- Hopeless Romantic - he still dreams of finding true love, despite being married
- Coward - oh sure, he tweaked Howard's ear, but he never worked up the courage to tell Elizabeth he loved her when he was free to do so, and then just waited around for his marriage to end without either fighting for it or ending it himself
- Computer Whiz - "You're in phat city, man!"
Thérèse's heart led her astray and she is now seeking to get back on the path to success.
Traits
- Star Quality
- Virtuoso - linked to Star Quality: Thérèse "captivated" Anthony with her piano-playing, according to the strip
- Perfectionist
- Genius
- Ambitious
Françoise sees more of her dad than her mum; and also more of Dad's friend Liz than she would like.
Traits
- Brave
- Genius
The Mayes Family
 |
| Paul, Gord, Tracey and Rosemary Mayes Get them here |
Funds: §20,500
Gord and Tracey were high school sweethearts. Now they're adults, even if they sometimes look a lot older, kept busy with their successful business and their two kids, Paul and Rosemary.
Gord plans to own the whole city one day: his personal empire.
Traits
- Technophobe - he just pumps gas. Anthony does all the computer stuff for him.
- Vehicle Enthusiast - how could I resist?
- Handy - obviously
- Angler - I thought Gord needed a hobby. The only holiday he and Tracey ever took was to a cabin, so perhaps he did some fishing.
- Born Salesman - how else would he wind up so successful?
Tracey married her high school sweetheart and hasn't ever looked back. She hasn't had time.
Traits
- Family-oriented - all the females in For Better or For Worse want families. Except for those who are clearly evil.
- Good
- Handy - she helped out at the garage in the early days of their marriage
- Natural Cook
- Friendly
It's hard to say much about Paul: he hadn't been seen for years. Maybe he'll make more of a splash when he comes back for his 20th high school anniversary reunion.
Traits (randomly-generated because Paul so rarely appeared in the strip)
- Workaholic
- Frugal
- Mooch
- Friendly
Rosie is happy with her family. So far. Who knows what rebellion might come with her teenage years?
Traits (also randomly-generated)
- Brave
- Virtuoso
- Light Sleeper
