Here's a rundown on what the characters have been up to for the past 25 years:
Will and Emma had Daniel, and then two years later came the twins, Alice and Abel. They're now retired. Their eldest, Daniel, is a big-time Hollywood actor. Only daughter, Alice, is studying abroad in Europe. Then there's Abel, the black sheep. He started out to get his degree in music, but decided college wasn't his scene. He's more of a hands-on kind of guy. So now he's juggling jobs, working as a cashier and a waiter. Then he decides to try and bring back the Glee club, something to make his dad happy. He wants his dad to be able to be proud of him before the cancer takes him out.
Puck went on with his Air Force career and surprised everyone when he moved up the ranks. After two years of coaching the New Directions, Rachel went back to New York and continued her Broadway career. She landed countless roles, several large ones, and even won two Tony Awards. But, eventually, her star burned out, and she headed back to Lima. She ran into Puck one day at the mall and the rest was history. Puck is happy, and so is she, but she always wishes she had a longer-running career. But there's no room on Broadway for a has-been.
Blaine got his bachelor's degree in Music and worked for a while at a high school in Cleveland. He "accidentally" had a fling with one of his students, and was fired. The principal was merciful, however, and so was the student, so his reputation wasn't too terribly damaged. When a college in Lima was willing to hire him, he jumped at the chance. Tina returned to Lima after getting her doctorate in Medicine to open a practice of her own. They happened to meet when Blaine checked himself into her office, complaining of stomach pains, completely ignorant to the fact that it was for pediatrics only. Now, they're happily married, and Blaine went back to school for his doctorate in Music, so that Tina wouldn't get all the fun. Jealous, much?
Jesse was just opening his Talent Agency in NYC when he and Kurt met. Kurt was fed up with the city, he was sick of all of the noise and the people and he was certainly tired of searching endlessly for job openings. Even the toilet paper commercial people didn't want him. So, he turned to talent agencies. They didn't even want him. Exasperated, he tried Jesse's agency, and got signed. Jesse didn't know why it had taken him so long to see the potential in the young man. It wasn't long before they began dating and eventually married. After adopting their children, Kurt begged Jesse to move to Lima. He wanted to see his parents and be in his childhood town. So they moved, Jesse opened up a second office of his agency in Lima, and Kurt is doing odds and end acting jobs. But Jesse always was a bit of a bully, wasn't he?
Sam continued his long-running modeling career even after meeting Quinn. He was arriving at his latest shoot, an ad for a new Gucci cologne, when he noticed a familiar blond head behind the camera. Turns out, after Quinn dropped out of Yale, she attending several community colleges and took countless photography lessons, following a dream that she hardly realized she had. They began dating shortly after, and eventually married. But, Quinn decided that she didn't want any husband of hers strutting around half-naked in front of a camera. So, he quit modeling and pursued his second-favorite thing. Okay, so more like sixth-favorite, but still. Football. He's now coaching the McKinley Titans and Quinn has her own photography studio. He quit modeling and she quit taking pictures of male models. Didn't she?
While on tour together, Santana and Mercedes realized that they were meant to be together. They also realized that Santana was more business-minded. She gets things done. She can make anyone do anything with a witty comeback and flip of her hair. And, obviously, Mercedes was the voice. So, Santana took over as her manager, and Mercedes continued being the star that she is. That isn't to say that Santana stopped singing. She was the back-up vocalist for several tracks on several CDs. They both missed Lima, so decided that they could work from there as well as they could from anywhere else, so they moved back home. Santana doesn't mind being the manager, in fact she likes it. But how much more of Mercedes always getting the spotlight can she take?
Mike and Brittany met up while they were on tour as back-up dancers for a band, and got closer than ever. After dating on-and-off for a year, they broke it off, and both returned to Lima separately. And they both opened their own dance studios, separately. The competition between the two studios was fierce and, eventually, they decided they were being silly. They started dating again, and married shortly after, since they had the same goals. To bring a huge, fantastic studio to the small town. So they combined their two dance academies into one. But, are common goals really enough to carry a marriage out? What about chemistry?

As you can see, I need quite a few characters. I cannot assure you that every one of the characters will have huge parts, but they will be main characters. I can't know which ones will be the biggest parts until I have thought up a storyline once I get the submissions in. This is not a first-come, first-serve contest. Please take your time and make well-thought-out characters. Please read the rules on my profile before submitting. The form can be found there as well.
Thanks in advance!
