Details

First appearance: The First mentions of the Guthrie Family were with Sam's introduction to the game in July 2023.

Thomas Guthrie father, deceased (b. 1979 - d. 2015)	A hardworking and loving father. Thomas Guthrie died in 2015, just around three months after M-Day. He was only thirty-six years old when he passed and left behind his wife and nine children. Thomas was a musician, and instilled a love of music in his children- he left his guitar to Jay when he died. PB: none, socked by none
Lucinda Guthrie mother (b. 1979)	The matriarch of the Guthrie household. Lucinda is a force to be reckoned with and commands the respect of all of her children, though she is not without her flaws and issues. Following her husband’s death in 2015, Lucinda fell into a deep depression and began to rely on her already parentified oldest children to help her provide for their younger siblings. She is extremely stubborn and has a tendency to always believe that she is right and acting in her children’s best interest even when she’s not. She tends to favor her sons over her daughters, and is particularly resentful of Paige for reasons nobody can fully articulate. PB: To be determined, socked by TBD
Sam Guthrie (b. October 17, 1997)	An Appalachian through and through, Sam Guthrie joined in order to help people stuck in broken systems, much like the folks back home in Kentucky.

PB: Louis Hoffmann, played by Mari
Paige Guthrie (b. April 13, 1999)	Paige followed her brothers to the mansion, intent on getting her PhD in psychology and becoming the best mutant she could be.

PB: Ava Phillippe, played by Ren
Jay Guthrie (b. December 21, 2001)	Jay came to the mansion after a suicide attempt after the death of his fiance, Julia Cabot. He’s here not by choice but by necessity.

History

Phase 2

Thomas and Lucinda were high school sweethearts who found, during their senior year of high school, that Lucinda was pregnant. The two married, and upon graduation Thomas took a job in the mines to provide for his family- in October of that year their oldest, Sam would be born. The family would soon grow to nine children, with the twins being born in 2012. Thomas took increasing hours as the family grew. Thomas died due to complications from black lung in 2015.

As Thomas’ illness got worse, Sam began taking on more of a ‘parent’ role to help lighten the load on his father. Sam would graduate high school early to take a job in the mines to help support the family, despite his own fear of contracting black lung. Sam’s mutant powers activated in 2016 during a mine explosion. When Sam left Kentucky for Muir Island his younger brother, Jay, took on his role as a pseudo-father figure to their younger siblings so that their sister, Paige, would have a better chance at getting into college.

Sam would move from Muir Island to District X in Manhattan in 2023 where he started bartending at Kirby’s. Following the flooding of District X, Sam would move into the Mansion and accept a job with X-Factor Investigations .
