Slasher U: Side Character Bonanza! (Patreon)

Populating the world of Slasher U with classmates, cuties, teachers, angry Deans, and TAs has been SO. MUCH FUN. OH MY GOD. I've been drawing from everything from classic horror movies (obviously) to 90's and 2000s goth fashion to wrestling to musical theatre and I am just knee deep in horror heaven right now. Here's a look at some of the side characters & notables who'll be appearing in Act I of SLASHER U!

From start to end:

STITCHERELLA: The fashion tech and couture TA, Stitch is the NPC vendor for garments and other sewing-based needs!

CLIFF: Cliff is the metalworking TA and handles all the NPC-vendor stuff for metallurgy and forging, like chains, outfits, jewelry, and shackles, wink!

VERONIKA FAUSTUS MEPHISTOPHELES: Veronika is a HUGE gossip and has tooooons of lines of contextual/story-changed dialogue & convo options based on player actions - and she's the touchpoint for players just starting to get to know some of the other characters!

ARCHIBALD THE COFFEE GUY: Veronika's crush, and the NPC who runs the student-led campus coffee shop. Arch is CONSTANTLY overworked.

DEAN WHATSISNAME: The dean of students - every college comedy dean rolled into one, with a bit of a Phantom of the Opera bent.

MELYSSA: A pledge/hopeful for the campus's least popular frat (and the one all your friends are in), DIK, Melyssa is a grimoire history major and often has all the latest news on campus events.

JENNYKIND: Jenny's the leatherworking TA at SU, and is also the vendor for any cute/wink-wink leatherworking needs for your hookup minigames & cosmetic upgrades!

DR STEINFURTER: The plastic surgeon/Doc on campus, and the NPC vendor for all your cosmetic, name change, gender change, and other char creation needs.

KELLEE: Student Life Liason, former camp counselor, VERY nervous, has looked death in the face one too many times imo!
