im nick, ive been in a few games all over the place in the last year, i played walter peck from the original 1984 movie Ghostbusters in the mock round for hotline and now im here with... a different ghostbusters character

im versatile

Real Ghostbusters' Venkman as portrayed by Lorenzo Music [aka the voice of Garfield in Garfield and Friends] is a vastly superior character compared to the original, live action version of Venkman portrayed by Bill Murray, and I am willing to put my money where my mouth is on that.

Venkman is a dumbass with two PhDs, who sometimes downplays his own intelligence and sometimes is, in fact, just that stupid. this is a man who rode a roller coaster while standing up in order to shoot Cthulhu. This is ALSO a man who has convinced hostile ghosts to disperse by talking with them. this is ALSO a man who tried to cheat the ghosts of Doc Holliday and the Earp brothers at poker.

[Real Ghostbusters pre-Coulier is good, guys.]

anyway im @ plurk @ glitchbirds and im in the discord !

[cracks open this ooc intro like a cold beer]

edit: nvm nick beat me to it

Hello! I'm Everett. I'll be one of your mods for this murdergame. I'm also playing The Pyro from Team Fortress 2, brought over from the mock round earlier this year. A run down on Pyro--they're, well, a pyromaniac that has quite a childish personality and has a tendency to not realize that their consequences have actions. They're rather impulsive, acting on whims based on the present and seemingly not caring what happens afterwards. As a result, they can be...a little intimidating. They don't really communicate with others very well, given that they wear a gas mask and full asbestos suit. As a result, they mostly resort to non-verbal communication or just simple sign language/hand gestures.

If you have any sort of questions, concerns, critiques, please feel free to contact me through Discord or through my plurk,

wolfnoir. I want people to feel open to communicating with me!

hey everybody, it's Gabby again! i was tonegawa in the mock week before i realized it'd be a lot more freeing to play a character who's less "stern amoral businessman" and more "goofy comic relief" because that Speaks To The Clown In Me. as an added bonus, he's a better person than tonegawa (not like clearing that bar is a particularly hard task) but still enough of an asshole to deserve a spot here.

anyway, Mr. Satan is from this little known niche series called Dragon Ball, you've probably never heard of it. he shows up in the later arcs, introduced first as a sideline comic relief character during the tail-end of the Cell saga. he's essentially this huge celebrity who got famous from winning the biggest martial arts tournament on the planet, and that's notable for being basically the Only legitimate accomplishment he has under his belt.

fellas, if he tries to claim he "killed some overgrown cockroach called Cell"? don't believe it for a second. in fact, you'd be best off assuming nothing he says is true. especially whenever he starts going off about how there's no such thing as the supernatural. ...come to think of it, boy he's gonna be giving a lot of people here a hard time about that one, huh. i apologize in advance.

i'm in the discord, but if you want to add me on plurk, i'm

gabbyzom there.

Hi everyone, I'm Phas. I'm bringing back Grog from the mock week because playing someone that dumb in a game like this is too fun.

For the unfamiliar, Grog is an adventuring barbarian from the DnD series Critical Role. He's a wall of muscle and rage with just enough of a moral compass to have a really bad time here. He helped save the world a few times, and then got his soul sucked out by a magic playing card.

Hi guys, I'm Redd! It's been awhile since I've been in a murdergame, but I helped run Trustfell for awhile and I was in a few other murdergames too! It's nice to meet you guys!!

I'm bringing in Xander from Fire Emblem: Fates. He's specifically from the Conquest route of the game, and coming in from the end of the game where he's now the King of Nohr! This is a definite improvement over the last king, his dad, who was supremely evil, and yet everyone listened to him anyway. The point is that Xander did some awful things because dad told him to, but he's actually a good person so this whole thing is going to suck! Yay!!

Feel free to add me on plurk or discord, I'm at

pokerap and pokerap#0934!

Hello! I am Dal, it's been a while since I murdergamed but my history is here - the tl;dr of it is that I've been in a bunch, and was the other mod out at Trustfell!

I'm going to be bringing you King Michalis of Macedon, from Fire Emblem, specifically New Mystery of the Emblem if anyone is counting! He's the physical embodiment of Sometimes People Just Suck, he has a long history of being a disaster of a human being and he's going to see literally no reason to stop now. ...He rules over a bunch of barbarians, bandits, and a disproportional number of nuns, and he has the exact personality one would think he does given that.

Feel free to add me on plurk (

InstantEternity); I'm in EST but my hours are a little weird, and I'm recovering from a serious health complication that ended in surgery so my apologies in advance if anything is a little weird for a while. I'm looking forward to playing with all of you!

Hi, everyone! I'm Ashley, and boy am I excited to be in another murdergame! I don't have a handy history link, but I've been around the block.

Those of you aware of the game Foolish Mortals might find this a little familiar, actually! Because I'm playing Kimberly Ann Hart, from Power Rangers...kind of. She's from the recent comic and was introduced under the moniker of Ranger Slayer. A far cry from the Pink Ranger you've heard about, she's jaded, bitter, and filled with an all-consuming need to atone for her past mistakes. Oh, and she's sort of stuck as a refugee outside reality right now. It's fine.

She's got experience with scavenging and dystopias and stuff like that, so hey! She'll be helpful to have around, probably.

I'm on plurk at

kabunevermind, and I'm gonna be hopping into the discord very shortly! I'm excited to play with you guys!

Hello, my name is Marion. I've been around the murdergame circuit a bit (history here, say hi if we played together!) and I'm excited to play with you all.

I'm bringing in Oksana Astankova, or known better by her codename Villanelle, from the BBC show Killing Eve. Villanelle is a trained covert assassin being hunted by a sexy intelligence officer with amazing hair and they are totally in love, 100%, trust her on this. Has no empathy, childish and impulsive, fun at parties, kills because why not?

As a note though she will be forging whatever she can about herself ICly because people finding out you're a dangerous assassin is a big no-no if you want to live a long and healthy life. She is going to pretend to be a nurse because it'll let her use most of her skill set with reasonable explanation and come off as ~caring and compassionate~ -- gross.

If you want to add me on plurk feel free to at

lobsterlifting, which is my all-purpose murder gaming plurk I'll check throughout the game. I'll be adding anyone who puts their plurk out here for open friending, but feel free to decline if you don't want to.

rolls up HEY IT'S LYNDON, I'M PLAYING ~~solid~~ SNAKE PLISSKEN!! he's from a couple movies about escaping from various major american cities, which have been turned into giant prisons! It's fine. The United States is fine, where he comes from. He's a very well-adjusted man who is absolutely not emotionally dead.

As for me, I've been rolling around the murdergame scene for a while (that list is slightly outdated, But), and uh... I haven't been in one in a while, so this is going to be fun! Especially since I usually play like. Various emotional cute girls and this guy sure the fuck isn't that.

I can be found on plurk at

lovebelievesin! Looking forward to playing with you all!

"I should probably comment" I said, several days ago.

HI YALL I'm DRIZZ and you might already know me because of my extended murdergame history and I'm here to add to that with another character that's... pretty different from the normal ones I play.

I'm playing Ladd Russo from Baccano! He's kind of nuts and enjoys killing people, a lot! I also had him in the Mock Trial, where he got kicked in the balls, so he's probably in for a good time here too.

I'm on plurk at

lightdrizzel if ya don't already have me. Can't wait to play with everyone again!

Hello, hello! I'm AF, and while I played Astolfo from Fire Emblem 6 in the mock trial, I am instead bring in Booster Gold/Michael Jon Carter from DC Comics! A character with a 30+-year, complicated history, none of which that matters because he's coming in just a couple of issues after his introduction in 1986 and we're ignoring the sliding timeline. He's 19 and it's the 80's and it's secondhand embarrassment central, the boy is a disaster.

If you haven't heard of him before, the basic gist is that Booster is from the year 2462, where he blew what was going to be a promising football career by getting involved in a gambling scandal, so he stole a bunch of shit from the museum where he was employed as a security guard and time traveled back to the present to become a superhero and utilize his fame for sweet, sweet advertising dollars. Eventually he'll figure out how to actually be a good person (mostly), but for now, he's a full on Chaotic Neutral idiot and I fully expect him to die here one way or another.

You can find me on plurk at

hotandcoldaf and on Discord at HotAndColdAF#3571 and since other people are linking them, my murdergame history is over here. My experience is primarily in mafia-based games, so this should be interesting.

fashionably late is the new thing, i whisper as i drag my decrepit body in, all the kids are doing it

YO, WHAT'S UP. my name's gray and i'm here with medic from the classic hat simulator with occasional first person shooting elements (like anyone cares about those), team fortress 2. he's exactly what his name implies, being the medic of a multicultural team of mercenaries who were at one point hired to fight over gravel pits by two sinister corporations running the world in the shadows. nowadays, his job holds much less weight but it's still just as ridiculous. when his team aren't fighting robots that run on money or taking dangerous missions in exchange for ~~weapon skins~~ priceless treasures, they're usually doing things that range from community service with the unintended side effect of saving children from the evil australian version of santa, tormenting wizards to the point of homicidal fury, and sometimes fighting against their former employer and his team of suspiciously similar retro substitutes to save the world (maybe). medic himself is a cheerful, friendly, mostly affable person in love with ~science~! and birds! and magic! and organ transplants, consensual or otherwise! and murder! he's pretty much a disney princess crossed with the aesthetic of a ghostbuster given the sensibilities of a very upbeat psychopath.

you can reach me at

megadrive or on mondo#8901 for all your plotting needs!

i should also mention that this is my first murdergame ever. so yeah. this is going to be weird.
