Eth - HIBER 🌻 (OLD)

(Content will most likely be changed over time and will definitely be updated in future posts!)

Short introduction video!

🌻 BASIC INFO

One of the characters at the summer camp. He is infected and has a centipede inside his brain since he was little. His bug, like many other centipedes inside brains (although this has some exceptions that I will write about in future entries), prevents him from being able to talk. During hiber, experiences strong headaches for a couple of days.

Eth joined the summer camp willingly to feel less lonely. After discovering the strange happenings, he begins to investigate and becomes obsessed with figuring everything out.

🎶 SHORT BACKSTORY

As a young kid, Eth used to have blonde hair. He always dreamed of singing and making music for the world. After a centipede infected his brain at a young age, he became mute, and his hair color changed to black (a centipede brain symptom). It really devastated him. From a lively, energetic kid, Eth became somewhat reserved, although still kind at heart. To this day, he still dreams at night about being able to talk or even sing. Sometimes has nightmares of being in terrible danger, not being able to scream for help. His love for music didn't die out and actually even heightened as comfort, which resulted in him learning how to play multiple instruments. Especially the electric guitar.

🎸 INTERESTS

Eth loves listening to music. He likes various popular genres like shoegaze and punkrock, but also adores obscure bands he only shares with people he trusts.

In his free time, he reads superhero comics and makes his own music, recording it on tapes. Eth dreams of releasing his creations, but can't find "the right time."

Other obscure interests include bears, sunflowers, the color yellow, and sweet dairy products, especially ice cream. Also loves honey.

🐻 PERSONALITY

As a person, Eth is a genuinely kind guy who just wants everyone to be happy. He can be a little shy at times, especially with his interests, but he's trying. Eth gets attached to people easily and loves being around them, even if no one's doing anything. If he sees someone being mean, Eth can't stop himself from showing that he does not approve. Even if he can't talk.

He's extremely indecisive, too.

His kindness is constantly being tested by the other camp members.

🍦 MISC

Sharing food with others is his love language.

Had an orange cat named Melon (he named it himself!) Currently has a grumpy calico cat named Jam. It, too, has a centipede inside its brain, which prevents it from meowing. Eth's parents got him this cat after he became mute himself.

Eth considers himself a cis man who's pansexual and asexual.

Eth's happiest memory is some sort of memory from the past when he was still a kid, listening to pop song performances on TV and singing along with family.

Has a soft spot for romance stories

Stephanie - HIBER 🍓 (OLD)

(Content will most likely be changed over time and will definitely be updated in future posts!)

Short introduction video! :D

🍓 BASIC INFO

Another quiet camper. A brain centipede infected her while she was still in the womb, because of that, she's not able to talk since birth. During hiber, experiences strong headaches and strange hallucinations too, as of recently.

Stephanie joined the camp willingly to run away from everything and "start something new." She does help Eth and the others to uncover the parasite mystery, but she doesn't really care and wants to finish the indie movie all of them had decided to work on, slowly becoming more obsessed with it.

📸 SHORT BACKSTORY

Stephanie is very embarrassed by her past. Especially because she used to be in a "no one understands me" phase and constantly acted up to get attention. She picked up photography and would trespass just to get a specific shot or angles she had in mind. Like a quick photo inside a neighbor's house foundation. Stephanie used to be extremely naive though, which resulted in heartbreak after she met a girl and got hurt by her. The other girl was not infected and used Stephanie's bug against her. After that, Stephanie became calmer and very cautious. She still has that edge to her and will make sure to give you a loud stank eye, but she looks at the world in a more dismissive or even cynical way.

She still remembers certain sneaky tricks she uses from time to time.

📹 INTERESTS

Stephanie jumped from photography to filmmaking. This hobby consumes most of her time. She loves filming all the time, but she doesn't film just anything. She has a very specific idea in her mind and she will do anything to get that shot. Stephanie adores telling her stories in an obscure way and has always dreamed of directing a short indie film, which she finally starts making with the other campers.

Stephanie likes watching movies as well, but rather than enjoying them, she observes each scene and frame, trying to nitpick what she could use in her own work.

Other things Stephanie likes include all sorts of berries, tropical fruit, especially the juicy ones, yogurt, catching birds, and taking care of her hair.

(Current 1994 Stephanie below)

🐦 PERSONALITY

Stephanie is very blunt and might even come off as rude or apathetic sometimes. She is not afraid to show when she doesn't like something. Though she does fear showing her deeper feelings towards things and people she likes. This might tie in with her past.

She can be very stubborn and a perfectionist too.

Eth, Laurie and other campers start to soften her heart bit by bit.

🍊 MISC

Stephanie is an extremely messy eater. She also likes eating with her hands, which does not help.

Used to own a sphynx cat named Pinto, which Stephanie loved dressing up in sweaters. Currently doesn't have a pet, but loves catching birds, giving them names, taking care of them for a couple of days, and then letting them go.

Stephanie considers herself a cis lesbian woman

She likes to sit silently or walk around in pitch black darkness alone.

Oliver - HIBER 🦖 (OLD)

(Content will most likely be changed over time and will definitely be updated in future posts!)

tldr: demiboy parasite nerd w/ green hair and guinea pigs, who's very lonely

Short introduction video :)

🦖 BASIC INFO

A lonely guy with strange hobbies. Oliver has had a huge larvae inside his body since birth. This worm prevents sex hormones from functioning normally, and as a result, a person infected by it doesn't develop gender-defining body parts. During hiber, Oliver feels very sick and dysphoric. Sometimes the larvae messes even more with his hormones, for example, sometimes he can have severe hair growth or a deeper voice or the exact opposite effect.

He was pushed to join the summer camp by his parents to meet "people like him." He doesn't like the weird stuff happening with the parasites one bit, but tags along and helps the others, wanting to feel included.

🐹 SHORT BACKSTORY

When Oliver was born and his infection was discovered, the doctors told the parents to wait for the kid to grow up and discover his own gender himself, but they didn't listen and kept pushing him to "choose" who he was before he could even comprehend this sort of stuff. In turn, Oliver (Olivia at that time) "chose" to be a girl without fully understanding his decision.

His whole life, Oliver was extremely lonely and had no friends. He was ashamed of his bug and too scared to approach anyone. He had to constantly take care of his many siblings too, which he hated. On top of all this, as Oliver grew up, he started to feel uncomfortable in the way he was perceived and mentioned this to his parents multiple times, but they would always answer with "What's done is done, you can't go back."

One extremely stressful day, Oliver cut his hair and dyed it green (the dying it green part he regrets), and after that, his parents "gave up on him" and let Oliver finally be who he was. They changed the name "Olivia" into the masculine version "Oliver", which the boy was not happy with, and hopes to one day change it again.

Oliver still hides his bug and lies to everyone about what it actually does.

(Child Oliver below)

🌮 INTERESTS

All his life, Oliver has been a geography and history nerd. He knows every fact there is about these subjects, and is also really good at navigating, loves using maps.

He's also a kleptomaniac and will steal any little thing he can find. Oliver has huge collections of random things, ranging from collectible cards and stickers to animal bones.

Other things he likes include dinosaurs, the history of objects, fast food, especially tacos, and places like savannas and jungles. Dreams of visiting them one day.

(Current 1994 Oliver below)

🧭 PERSONALITY

Oliver is quite awkward and struggles to express himself. He's very lonely too and just wants someone to talk to. He does try to be friendly and make friends at the camp, even though it often backfires.

Surprisingly, Oliver is actually probably the toughest person in the whole camp emotionally. No matter what, he won't ever give up, and however many times he falls over, he will get up with even more determination.

His efforts pay off eventually.

🐜 MISC

Oliver has a strange fascination with burning ants :/ He says it "calms him down."

He has multiple strange-looking guinea pigs. Some infected, some just a bit weird.

Oliver considers himself a demiboy, but is okay with others just perceiving him as a man. He likes girls.

He has multiple t-shirts with strange images and embarrassing quotes in his closet to choose from to wear under his sweater.

Awful sleeping and eating habits. He either doesn't sleep and only eats one time or he sleeps for 10+ hours and eats junk food all day
