Brainstorming Bad Kids and Rat Grinders swap au. Definitely not perfect butttt
Gorgug: A kid relentlessly bullied till he becomes nothing but a ball of sizzling rage. Porter bullies him as well to “toughen him up.” He’ll make the perfect barbarian out of him. Less emo and more metal. Chose rage rather than letting himself be belittled, walked over, and forgotten.
Fig: In lieu of a proper father figure, Fig has latched onto Porter. A bard and a paladin, signing her loyalty to Porter as “the first person to give a shit about her.” Chose rage as an act of rebellion and her new identity after her horns grew in.
Adaine: Every evil team needs someone who can see the future to avoid their faults. Neglected and looking to one up all her sister has done. Bitchy like canon but it’s worse because she’s still a prep. Her and Fabian fund so much of the team’s plans. Chose rage because she wanted to choose something for herself, not what her parents order.
Fabian: Ego is his biggest fault. Wants to be great sooooo bad. Why not help a teacher become a god if it gives you fame? Chose rage so as not to die in the shadow of his father’s legacy.
Kristin: Her lack of faith in Helio made her a blank slate to become a Cleric of Ankarna. Is slowly weaned from the ideas of Ankarna’s original domain, to her corrupted domain, to Porter taking her domain. Is given the answer “If we conquer, then we can end suffering!” Chose rage after feeling abandoned by Helio.
Riz: The briefcase kid became the no talking kid. He has become disillusioned with the idea of justice and people caring for others. It’s every man for himself now. Sticks with Porter’s plan because he just wants his mom and him to be safe. Silent and deadly, possibly an Assassin Rogue. Chose rage because he couldn’t leave Sklonda by herself.
