Secondary Characters

Headless Horsemike

Social Chair at DIK, and second most popular guy on campus, Headless Horsemike is THE go-to guy for partying on campus. Unless you're part of the fancy frat/sorority group, that is.

NIGHTTIME

Sawyer Ferguson

Dean Whatsisname

Completely oblivious carrot-cake loving Dean of Students.

Kelly

Former camp counselor, current student services head.

Bursar Killington

The villain of the piece! Killington HATES the students, and HATES horror the most.

Why? Because horror's SCARY! And anything that scares him must be BAD. (At first he assumes the students just aren't scared, then, when he finds out they LIKE being scared, he goes fucking bananas).

Dr. Steinfurter

A super hot 40s-ish Bruce Campbell looking fucker who looooooves illegal monster surgery. Big Re-animator, Dr. Steinman, mad plastic surgeon vibes.

Operates the student medical clinic at Slasher U.

Provides gameplay services:

Other Students

Not quite Secondary Characters, but important nonetheless!

Covington Footballington

A 50's football player raised from the dead, Covington doesn't really remember his real name or old self, but he DOES remember how to be great at football! He's a bully, mean to the main cast, and easy to anger - all your typical jock tropes - but his frustration primarily comes from not being able to understand modern society properly.

Ashleigh Summers

Fellow Final Girl and Laila's closest frenemy.

Other Sorority Girls at Rich Girl Sorority

Main Quest

THINK OF THE CHILDREN: Someone (Bursar Killington) is working from the inside to take down Slasher U. He believes it's a horrible place that engenders the worst in people - instead of the magical mystical horrifying slaughterhouse we've all come to know and love. He doesn't really “get” horror - but the students at Slasher U do!

The Main Quest takes you through a mystery element, hunting for clues Nancy Drew style around the map, with lots of setpieces (main quest points) featuring your party members to advance the main quest story. (Inspired by classic horror tropes/films).

Killington is part of a secret Hayes Code worshipping society that seeks to hold everyone to the old traditional standard - “think of the children” when there's no children present. (And when everyone's children... everything will finally be child-appropriate!!)

****Throughout: physical plot evidence can be uncovered/collected

Something's Afoot

MAIN QUEST PHASE: 0

Someone - a mysterious hooded figure in a white and gold robe - is STOPPING murders from happening on campus!

A: ....HEXECUTIONER.

H: What?

A: Are you fucking kidding me?!

H: What?? :(

A: Hex. The purpose of a roleplaying simulation is to SIMULATE an ACTUAL survival scenario.

A: If you were chasing me and Covington through the woods in REAL life, would you ask me how my vacation to Cabo went??

H: ...Probably?

A: UGH.

<Just then, a loud whistle pierces nearby Hex. Whatever it was grazed his shoulder!>

H: DUDE! Not fair! This was supposed to be a 2-on-1!

A: Yeah! And where's your permit for that projectile? This is a 200-level class!

<Another projectile whistles past Hex - this one hitting Covington right in the chest.>

LAILA

I'm glad you decided to meet me, \s[11].

I've been doing a LOT of research.

I immediately started canvassing the other students in class, and NOBODY got to complete their test, that day.

After what you said about that hooded figure, I cross-referenced such incidents with the old copies of the student paper in the library.

I'm not far back enough yet, but with your help... I bet we could figure out who that fucker is.

TATE

Hey! \s[1]! I didn't think you'd show!

You're not going to fucking believe what I just found out.

<Tate shows you a photo.>

Look familiar?

<Tate shakes his head.>

Look. It's a shot from a Slasher U football game in 1970.

Look at the guy running across the field.

Look at what he's wearing.

<You do.>

<It's... a hooded figure. Wait, that looks familiar...>

I KNOW, right?

You think we can find this guy in the rest of the archives?

I mean. If you're down to solve this mystery with me.

HEX

\s[1]!! You're here!!

Okay, so, remember when that guy showed up during Survival class and tried to shoot some new holes in Covington?

Guess what I found.

<Hex withdraws a bow from his backpack.>

RIGHT?!

I found it in the woods after I was, uh, moping out there.

But LOOK AT THIS.

<He shows you the bow.>

It's from the Slasher U archery team.

It's just a normal old gym bow!

I'm not sure if this even counts as a lead...

...I could definitely use some help solving this, though...!

JUNO

Yooooo. \s[1].

I'm still hung up about that guy who tried to grab me on set the other day.

...So i did some RESEARCH.

And by research, I mean breaking and entering.

CHECK THIS OUT.

<Juno produces a stark white-and-gold robe.>

Look familiar? I found it in the school laundry. Like, where they wash the tablecloths for the big fancy fundraiser dinners and shit.

It's the same kind of robe that asshole was wearing when he tried to grab me!

I'll kill him!!

Wanna help me get sweet sweet revenge, \s[1]?

Hanging Out

Tate McGillicutty

Tate is an A/V nerd with a nervous demeanor and a daaaaark secret. How dark? Let's find out! (He has an Eldritch horror living inside him, Jekyll/Hyde style, hell-bent on destroying the world, which Tate has a strained relationship with).

Tate's the most traditional of all the characters in terms of romance: He needs to get to know you, be asked out, be kissed, then be comfortable enough to sleep with you before he'll feel an attachment to the player.

Story/Stat Basics

Advancing through the Tate Romance

Tate needs to hit a baseline of v[FriendThreshold1] to be able to be kissed by the player.

When Tate hits X# of kisses, he'll ask the Player on a Date.

The Player also unlocks the ability to ask Tate to come upstairs when walked home (if the player has Kissed Tate at least 2x).

Basic Variables:

v[TatePoints]

v[TateKissCount]

v[TateDateCount]

v[TateSexCount]

v[TateHydeEncountered] (Yes or No)

Being Walked Home

When Tate walks the Player home:

Tate Dates

Tate has a selection of Dates depending on the context:

If the Player doesn't hit any of the optional criteria for date choices & the Date threshold is hit, the game rolls for a random date out of the above list.

After each date, the Player has the choice to have Tate walk them to their dorm.

Tate Sexytime

Tate has a standard 3-stage roll-based sexytime, but has a chance of spawning TateHyde if overloaded (final cum# any amount over cum trigger threshold).

e[TateSex]

TateSex is a mobile event:

TateHyde

If TateHyde has been activated for the first time, Tate's ability to have sex is paused until the quest is accepted or rejected.

Asking Out

Tate

Romance Storyline: Big Bad Wolf

If you overload Tate (max out X# over his cum threshold) there's a 1 in 3 (33%) chance to trigger Tate's Romance Storyline quest, “Tate Hyde”.

  1. Rejecting also lets you break up / stop hooking up with Tate.
  2. Whether or not you accept HulkTate, you can still trigger the quest.
  1. You can help Tate with this any way you like:
  1. You and Tate kick his dad's ass.
  2. You talk Tate into leaving his family alone.
  3. You talk Tate into leaving his family alone, but bringing his sister along.
  4. You berate Tate's dad so hard he shrivels up into a tiny raisin, but he's still a shithead. It makes Tate feel a lot better, though.
  5. You're a shithead and let Tate's dad beat him up.
  1. You find the source of Tate's dad's demon curse (it's hereditary), then:

Laila Velasquez

Laila is extremely hard to impress, and you'll have to hit a high Friend threshold, impress her, take her out on a date, and THEN either try to kiss or be kissed by Laila. If Laila is suitably impressed at any point during this process, she'll activate her sexytime layer (a ranked BDSM experience).

Story/Stat Basics

Asking Out

Laila

Romance Storyline: Romancing the Brimstone

Laila's entire family shows up and SURPRISE! They're actually really supportive! Laila finds them annoying, but it's clear she has a soft spot for them.

In that case... where do Laila's trust issues come from??

Hexecutioner Jones-MacDuff

Hex is your typical himbo who's quick to jump at hooking up/sleeping with you, but his attitude towards casual sex is balanced out by his trepidation when it comes to traditional relationships - he's never been in one! Hex has the “naive in love but not in the sheets” thing going hard.

Story/Stat Basics

Extra Layer: BDSM Hex

During normal sex sessions Hex has a chance on player selection of correct moves to activate the trigger for Hex's second sexytime level: BDSM Hex! This replaces original/vanilla Hex time.

*Player is approached by Hex when trigger is activated to choose to go to BDSM level.

        >If Rejected, Hex returns to Original level (no hard feelings)

*There should be an option to go back to Original at any time if BDSM Hex is activated.

*Full Romance storyline Hex can only be activated with BDSM Hex active.

Hexecutioner

Romance Storyline: Meet the Parents

At the point where the Player qualifies to become Hex's partner, but HASN'T yet, Hex's Romance storyline activates.

Hex starts flipping out because his notorious dads are coming to visit for Parents' Weekend.

It's up to the player to emotionally support Hex through this trying time!

During each Romance Storyline quest for each character, the school goes through “Parents Weekend” with different events going on for the characters you're not dating.

QUEST STAGES

Juno Ju-On

Juno is the most traditionally “romantic” of the main four relationships. Though Laila's is hard to get, Juno's relies mostly on feelings and a genuine sense of getting to know someone, with the sex being secondary (and often entirely optional).

Sawyer Ferguson

Law student and DIK resident, Sawyer's definitely the most responsible guy at the house.

[Cap of the Football Team]

Secretly Bursar Killington's son, [Chad Footballington] is, typically, Captain of the Football Team, and occasionally shows up to foil the main gang's attempts at discovering Killington's plans.

Breakup Level

If the Player does something unforgivable to the character, they enter Breakup Level.

They can talk their way out of it, but each choice is dependent on the player's actions and the reasons for the breakup.
