Plainwood, Arise and Awaken! is a series of slice-of-life audio sitcom episodes about the daily goings-on in the superstitious and somewhat antiquated town of Plainwood. It is half radio show, half sitcom.

Episodes

Notable Characters

Jordon Daly

The unsettlingly chipper voice behind the Plainwood Public Radio show, Plainwood, Arise and Awaken! (series). They are considered the prime example of the Plainwood citizen, having traditionalist beliefs in spirits and demons and an unresolved spite towards their mayors--and many other people, for that matter. But just like a good Plainwooder, Jordon takes care to swallow all that spite and put on a joyous attitude and avoid anything that would give them a bad reputation.

Eileen Pritchett

A dry and sarcastic teacher from Plainwood who has no concept of consequences and will anything if it means fulfilling a certain goal. However, she will never be the first to act upon any of her ideas, thoughts, or actions, and hates to take a risk if she doesn't 100% know what the outcome will be (which is why she always picks on her cousin Matt).

Vivian Fay

A caring yet headstrong doctor who is the only person in Plainwood, along with Eileen, not to believe in Sinisters or possession. As much as she cares about the wellbeing of her fellow townspeople and the advancement of Plainwood to the modern world, she can't help but spite everyone who won't even entertain the idea of modern medicine.

Matt Kennett

One of the three mayors of Plainwood. He is the only one who is actually passionate about his job and keeping Plainwood safe and happy, but has a lot of trouble in trying to find the fair balance between "safe" and "happy." Matt has a huge heart and hates to see people suffer, but because of this, he is often taken advantage of.

Morgan Bailey

A jovial and absentminded woman from the States who loves to go with the flow and has quickly accepted the weirdness of Plainwood as just another culture and quirk. She loves to explore new things and do whatever her friends are doing.

Patrick Wells

A laid-back and witty teacher who considers Plainwood a combination of his second home and a vacation spot where nothing has any consequences. He is often the voice of reason among the group, which is saying a lot, considering how often he wants to be left alone and how his ideas may not be the most moral.

Dawn Fay-Simone

The kind and obedient owner of the Everoak Café and Inn who loves everyone equally and hates to get involved in conflict.

Kyle Ling

A highly passionate and ethically questionable man who will do nothing to keep his hometown of Plainwood safe and demon-free.

Archibald West and Cliffe Rhubis

The two bumbling co-mayors of Matt Kennett who don't really take their job too seriously and are making everything up as they go along.
