Name:
Lady Ursula Pole
Title:
Dowager Baroness Stafford
What family do you have with you on Progress?
My son Edward, Baron Stafford, and his wife, my good-daughter Mary Stanley, Baroness Stafford
Who is your chief ally on this Progress?
I find the company of my good-daughter acceptable; we share the questionable honor of having married into the Stafford, er, heritage.
Who is your enemy on this Progress?
I do try to be a friend to all and hindrance to none.
Why are you on Progress?
I am here to visit my son and his family, and to be sure Edward does not put himself further out on a financial limb than the fortune, such as it is, can support. Oh, and to see Edward stays out of the Bell.
Why are you at Court?
Ah! Court is a delightful respite from a quiet life; some good friends are here, and I bask in the glory that is Her Majesty!
Three (3) facts that we know about you and can talk or react about:

Fact3:  My ancestors, like so many of yours, had colorful histories!!
What ONE thing can YOU (the actor) tell us/show us about your character that you want us to 'see' when we play off of you?:
One??
