If you were a slasher villain.....

[Vrex360]

We are all at least somewhat aware of the 'slasher' genre of horror film. The ones involving a killer stalking and hunting down would be victims in a series of vicious and often very inventive ways. There are always a few major things about any would be horror slasher which I shall explain:
1. They must always wear some kind of mask that is unique to them
2. They must have some kind of killing weapon that is unique to them (kitchen knife, machete, chainsaw, knife fingers)
3. They must have some kind of backstory explaining their history and why they kill all they see.

If you have all those things, you are set for some major killing sprees. So let's begin, I have made this thread to allow the Escapists to show their ghoulishly creative side by making up a slasher villain alter ego with their own mask, weapon and backstory. Something that can fit all the right buttons of horror cliche while also honouring them. So I'll begin with my killer;

Name:
Edward Rogan

Traits: Wields an antique but still useable cutlass and wears a greek theatre mask with one half burned black and the other half perfectly white. He has spiky hair and a frail frame and is very fast and stealthy.

Backstory:
Having been raised in an old theatre young Edward dedicated his life to the theatrical arts, however one day in a terrible fire that may or may not have been accidental, right at Edward's big moment on stage he is supposedly killed in the fire. The fire was caused by townspeople believing him to have been possessed by evil. However tonight he has returned, is a ghost or did he indeed survive? Either way he's out tonight seeking revenge on those who murdered him and for seem reason his revenge is easily sated instead on irrelevant horny teens who dare to populate the large city where his theatre once stood. His killing style is always done in a very theatrical and artistic style, often making paintings with their blood or turning them into human scultures. He also frequently recites Shakespearian quotations.

Okay that's my made up horror movie alter ago... what's yours?

Nice... someone's done their homework on old school slasher horror, because you added a stylish suspense as well.

Too hard seeing myself as a crazy slasher so I'll just create one for laughs.

Name: Efram the retarded rabbit

Weapon: Ball-peen hammer

Appearance: Dirty pink rabbit costume

Backstory: Once working as a high school janitor, he was constantly mocked by students due to being mentally challenged. His only friend was his pet rabbit that he kept in one of the schools storage rooms. Once his rabbit was killed by the local school bully he was pushed over the edge. Donning his rabbit costume he swore he'd avenge his furry companion by killing all of the schools students.

[teisjm]

Name: it's secret, you can call me ninja

Weapon: katana and shurikens

Appearence, black suit and a black mask.

Backstory: i'm a fucking ninja.

The lack of originality is made up for with this: why fix what isn't broken.

 

[Georgeman]

Name: Mighty Monk

Weapon: Motherfucking fists reinforced with some kind of gauntlet.

Appearance: It mostly consists of a grey martial arts robe with sleeves. He also wears a different kind of mask between each of his kills. He proceeds to discard said mask to confuse the authorities.

Backstory: Once a well-respected martial arts master, as well as a clam and serene figure, he turned into a serial killer after being almost killed and left for dead by his strongest student. Said student then proceeded to tear apart his master's dojo and horribly massacre all the remaining students as if to spit on his master's face. His terrible rage consumed him and he swore to do the same and even more to his student and his student's family, which he proceeded to actually do. The path to revenge, however, drove him mad and now he will seek and kill challengers just for fun. He might even kill people who remind him the slightest of his student and any people that happen to be within range. Yes, he is a bit strange on the subtlety matters even though he wears a mask.

 

[Kollega]

Name: Johan Gas-Mask.

Weapon: A broadsword, a tank full of poisonous gas.

Appearance: A WW1 German soldier wearing a gasmask (well, duh). Right side of his torso is far from perfect condition. By which i mean "his ribs are sticking out". On his back he carries aforementioned gas tank.

Backstory: Machinegun fire, barbed wire, trenches, rain, mud, and chemical attacks. As if that wasn't enough, Johan got screwed over by his superior - komandant shot him in the leg before retreating. He thought it was funny. He then proceeded to burn down Johan's house, torture his parents, kill his dog, seduce his wife, and drink all his beer, because hey - it's not like some soldier is going to return from the dead and get his revenge, right? After which, he took a high position in the newly-formed Nazi gonverment.

Johan was not amused. He is pissed off. He wants bloody retribution - at the very least.

So yeah - he is basically a German zombie spirit in a gasmask fighting Nazis with a broadsword. Deal with it.

[Vergast]

The only real origianl thing id do is not kill all the slutty girls.
Id kill the teases....

name: the killer/antagonist

weapons: hairpin/ribbons

backstory: Not wanting to became a cliche 'the killer' decided to murder instead of being murdered. After all it was nearly halloween and alot of disgruntaled people had been shunned by socity. Knowing his bad movie cliches the antagonist quickly realized that he and his friends were prime victums to any potential physcio. In short he deiced to beat the rest by killing first, thus ensureing he lived for at least another year when the next physcio would come along.

 

[Yumi_and_Erea]

Name: Leonard Ozma.

Weapon: A dual-pair of silver stakes.

Appearance: His face is perfectly normal, except for the skin surrounding his right eye, which he cut from the face of his mentor. He wears nothing except a single brown cloak, although many black belts are strapped to his body. He is a gangrel creature, although there is a surprising amount of strength in his arms, and an insane glimmer in his eyes.

Backstory: We've all heard of Jack the Ripper, the demon of Paris who slayed countless innocent young maidens. What is known only to a select few, however, is the fact that at one point he had an apprentice, namely Leonard. How Leonard came to be in his service, or who he was before doing so, is still being researched even today. All we know is that while Jack focused his efforts on women, Leonard targeted men. Most notably clergymen.
He would always follow the same routine: sneak up from behind, then stab them in the lung and spine. But the strange and horrible thing is what happened afterwards.
The men would get pinned to a wall, with one stake going through the left shoulder, and the other going through the right knee. With Jack now gone, Leonard has been killing more and more frequently, eagerly awaiting the return of his master.

Sadly I didn't add a mask. Then again what's more frightening than the face of a man you know to be dead?

And yeah I've always been a bit of a fan of horror movies... Though less as of late. Sure stupid, horny teenagers need to be killed... But what's the point? They'll just make more later. :/
