hello i would like see more pics of roadkill and also pls tell me more about them 🤲
hi Olly! sure thing!! i present to you: roadkill pics + rambles :-)
(general warning for immoral behavior, violence, kidnapping, & death)
so Roadkill's story isn't fully fleshed out yet, but basically they're the head of a fairly sizable group of raiders & they are always causing trouble!
i say that the apocalypse is their ideal environment, bc Roadkill has always had a pretty loose moral compass & prior to the apocalypse, would often lie, steal, & cheat to get what they wanted.
once the apocalypse hit, they completely gave in to their chaotic impulses & just started kind of doing... whatever. including kidnapping people.
Roadkill & their goons are actually the reason Teeth became a monster! they ran into him while he was out on a supply run, took him hostage, stole everything he had, broke his leg, tortured him, etc. & when he eventually managed to escape, he couldn't get very far due to the leg injury, passed out in an area with high radiation, and turned before he woke up!
they eventually end up kidnapping Zip Tie as well & have multiple run-ins with the other group (Suzie, Jackson, Sweetie, & Zip Tie) after he gets rescued. i haven't set it in stone quite yet, but I'm thinking Roadkill is the one who kills Sweetie/is the reason for her death, but that might change at some point idk
but yea! that's it so far :-)
thank you for asking about them!!
Yooo! Sorry if you already explained this BUT what's the lore for your monster boys? The Goblin and Zombie lookin' guy?
hi!! i really haven't talked much about their lore on here, so no worries!
the lore/story itself is still pretty new (i only started actually writing it a few months ago), so i don't have all of the details sorted yet, but i can definitely share a bit of their backstories & how they met!
but just like... general warning for death & other similar subjects, because this story is full of all of that
Basically, the story is set in a sort of post-apocalyptic/nuclear apocalypse type of world & people become monsters through high amounts of radiation exposure.
Neither of the boys knew each other prior to becoming monsters; however, they did live in the same city/area when the apocalypse started, which was around like... 2018 or so.
Kelly/Red (aka "the goblin" lol) was in a group with his younger sister, her partner, and another, older guy who he grew up with/is kind of like a brother to him. About 10 months into the apocalypse, Kel made a bit of a fuck up which resulted in his sister & her partner dying. In this universe (bc it's an AU of another story I have), Kelly's sister was pretty much his best & only friend--she was more or less his entire world. Their childhood wasn't great, so they ended up really close with one another. Long story short, the guilt of what he did ate him alive & he intentionally turned himself into a monster by going into a "high radiation zone" & just... waiting. Red, as a monster, is very apathetic, vicious, etc. and he doesn't remember being human at all.
Dhestyn/Teeth (aka "zombie lookin' guy") was living with his cousin who was a bit of an amateur doomsday prepper type. BUT his cousin is an absolute coward & refuses to leave their bunker ever, so Dhes does all of their supply runs on his own. Now, Dhes is a good survivor & definitely has the skills to make it a long time in the apocalypse, but his hubris is absolutely his downfall--he sees himself as almost untouchable, which causes him to make some... less than great decisions. About 2 years into the apocalypse, he gets caught off guard by a group of raiders while on a supply run & that ultimately leads to his becoming a monster. I talked about it a lil bit already here, but basically he does manage to escape said group of raiders, however!! his injuries are too severe to make it back home, so he (unintentionally) passes out where there's a lot of radiation (the city is surrounded) & turns before he can wake up.
The two of them meet when Teeth wanders near Red's cabin. Originally, Red intended to kill Teeth, but ended up choosing not to & took him in instead. I would explain why but this is already really long so... in short: they're soulmates lol
but yeah! that's it! thank you for asking! :-)
apologies for the literal essay lmao
