season 6b has introduced so many unnamed characters with no backstories that are so relevant to this entire series and offers the perfect place for ocs and crossovers to fit in. while it’s easy to create enemies for tamora and since she has so many on the show, i want to focus on some of the alliances she has ——- because realistically, the entire town of beacon hills is following her lead, and that’s exactly why this war is so dangerous right now. i would love to make establish connections with her to really write about her role as a leader in all of this, so here are some connections i’m still dying to have!! ( ocs / crossovers / whatever fits )
police officers. the cops in beacon hills have just found out that they’ve been lying to families for years about the real deaths of their loved ones. they feel humiliated for not knowing the truth, they feel betrayed by sheriff stilinski for leading them to lie, and they feel guilty for never giving these families real closure because they are responsible for lying to them. with tamora in charge now, they look to her to give them the full truth and to protect them —- and as seen in 6.19, that means giving her access to all cases for the past decade to start putting puzzle pieces together ( and for tamora, to know who the real enemies are. )
experienced hunters. tamora is recruiting everyone she can find to help them in their current war. these experienced hunters could help her ( given that she’s still new herself ) and can help train new hunters to ensure their army is at their very best.
new hunters. tamora’s goal is to protect the entire town and make it safe again, meaning she’s giving weapons to those who have no experience using them. to the neighbors who have been exposed to the supernatural and are terrified of their own home, tamora is going above and beyond to ensure that they are protected. with giving them new weapons to use, she’s working to train everyone to ensure that they are able to survive —– and with anyone who’s hesitant to stay on her side, she often works with manipulation, amplifying their fear because if they don’t follow her, she believes they’re dead at the hands of the supernatural.
family of loved ones who were killed by the supernatural. these are people who feel betrayed by their neighbors, by the sheriff of the town, etc. because they were told a lie about how their loved ones died, and now that they know about the supernatural, they’re forced to go through that grieving process all over again. they’re angry, upset, betrayed, and want vengeance for what happened to their loved ones. creating backstories for these characters can fit in at any point in the timeline if you wanted ( family of those who were sacrificed in season 3, family of the chimeras who died with no explanation and bodies never found, etc. )
adults and students who have been attacked / seen the supernatural first hand. much like nolan and tamora’s back story, these people have been faced with the supernatural before but didn’t know what to make of it. for tamora, she was sure it was something more than just an animal, but everyone told her otherwise. in search for validation of her own fears, she seeks out others to see what they’ve experienced before. just like with nolan, she finds herself much more protective of those who have been in the same situation as her. these people could have been hurt, or they could have seen something ( like nolan in the library, or the beast running down the highway, etc. ) for students, these are people she’d guide / try to get information out of / try to help protect. she would be very insistent on giving these students a place to belong and a safer place to live, while also trying to give them ways to protect themselves.
people who knew tamora during her attack. at the time of her attack, she was just a teacher at the high school and had to take a leave for some time —- before she eventually came back to add the guidance counselor to her job description. this could be other teachers who were with her that night that refuse to believe in the supernatural / her friends or family who are trying to help her recover but don’t really comprehend what she’s going through / etc. her headspace directly after her attack is so important and the foundation of what turned her into the hunter and power seeker she is now, so i’ve love to write more of that too.
tamora’s network of hunters. post series, she moves on to keep hunting worldwide and builds a network of hunters. this could be people who have established their own armies in other places of the world or people who are looking for someone to follow.
tamora is 1) leading a revolution to end all supernatural creatures 2) the new sheriff in town 3) the guidance counselor + humanities teacher who can lead students in the right (hers) direction 4) a new hunter with little experience but confident in her abilities 5) a victim of an attack by the supernatural 6) post series, a traveling hunter who hopes to connect people worldwide for this same goal. ——– so there are so many ways to connect her to your character or to put your character into the current arc, even if you’ve never seen it —– i’d love to help work out those connections!! e
LET ME KNOW IF YOU’RE INTERESTED IN THESE CONNECTIONS or if you have a muse that fits perfectly! ( even just comment on this post and i can send you a message to start plotting something! ) i know people usually prefer to write the Good Guys but i promise you, writing accidental villains who are driven by fear and desperation is the best time i’ve had.
