Canned Character Concepts Roundup: Slasher U-niverse (Patreon)

Eventually I'm going to have to tell you all about my sordid plans for Slasher 2 (not Act 2, oh no, the fuckin' sequel - which will be A LOT shorter but just as robust - to Slasher U, if the gods are willing, lmao). It's a GREAT place for me to try out characters I didn't get to rock in Slasher U Acts 1 thru 3!

Here are two I cut from Slasher U at the concepting stage: Lady Grey and Harmelita (here labelled Arabella). Harmelita was supposed to be this j-fashion inspired porcelain doll who was built as a snotty 21-year-old instead of like, "a proper doll", so she's a huge bitch with AMAZING Lolita fashion in her wardrobe and big stompy pastel goth boots. (Also, yes, I have a soft spot for femme tops. SORRY. lmao.). If you've played a bit of Laila's Act 2, Harmelita was supposed to be kind of an annoying foil to Neil, but like. Faye. Faye, you guys. I feel like Faye slapped me across the face with her big fake southern accent and was like "YOU BETTER WRITE A STORY ABOUT MY BULLSHIT, PEACHES" (and by her bullshit, I mean her and Neil's horrible entangled codependent relationship).

Lady Grey was a take on the Girl with the Green Ribbon urban legend/horror story (oo you take off her ribbon and her HEAD COMES OFF!), crossed with this Tudor-era ghost concept I've been messing with for a while. I think maybe she's got too much going on? If I'm doing an Anne Boleyn, can I pull the Ribbon Girl thing off too? Or maybe I should roll with the Ribbon Girl concept more!
