A member of the Creepkillers, as well as the student of Indrid Cold. A few years ago, Jane lost her parents to a house fire whilst she was at school. When she returned to what was left of her home, she found a mysterious cracked, white mask. All signs pointed to the fire being caused by the notorious masked serial killer: Jeffrey C. Hodek, as he had been reported to be within the area last night. Taking the mask with her, she was determined to find her parents' murderer and kill him herself.
After wandering the streets for many sleepless nights, trying to hunt him down, she learnt how to use a blade and was able to hold her own in a fight. Eventually, her paths crossed with Indrid Cold, the leader of the Creepkillers, who was in the area on a mission. After witnessing her fend off a gang of thugs harassing her with nothing but a knife, he offered her a position to join him as a Creepkiller. Jane accepted his offer, hoping that this may lead her closer to finding Jeff.
Jane is usually quiet and reserved, even more so after becoming an orphan, though she still does what she can to help those in need. She struggles socially at times, but she sees her fellow Creepkillers as friends worth protecting and bonding with. Although an extremely efficient fighter, her paranoia and lust for revenge can lead her to making irrational decisions at times.
Indrid Cold is the friendly leader of the Creepkillers, and Jane's mentor. His past is shrouded in mystery; all Jane knows about his history is that he was a student of the Mothman: A legendary beast who fought for mankind against the Red King's forces during the Red War, which Indrid was a part of. Nowadays, he dedicates his life to protecting the humans from the many monsters that still plague the world after the war. He does feel a sense of guilt for betraying/killing his own kind, but he also understands the danger they bring to mankind.
Despite being the leader of a team mostly dedicated to killing Creeps, Indrid prefers to solve problems in a peaceful manner. If he can find a way to talk things out with as little bloodshed as possible, potentially with a cup of tea and some biscuits, he'll take it. That being said, if he was to fight, Indrid's high agility and reflexes, as well as his super strength, make him a dangerous force to be reckoned with.
Though his tall stature and his eerie, seemingly permanent smile, make him come across as an intimidating figure, Indrid Cold is nothing but friendly, polite and well-spoken with others. He is also an orderly individual, liking it when things are neat and organised. He sees Jane almost like a daughter to him, despite only knowing her for a few years, and vows to protect her with his life, alongside the other members of his team/family.
Face is a sentient AI who works alongside the Creepkillers. Face is the one who reports to Indrid and his fellow agents of Creep activity he can detect, as well as any information he can gather about the targets. Face does not know much about his origins, only that he remembers activating in what seemed to be an empty space not usually accessible by natural means. The complex was seemingly endless, but there were no signs of life anywhere.
That was, until an unusual man known as Indrid Cold somehow stumbled into one of these areas. The two ended up becoming friends, and Face allowed Indrid to come and go as he pleased. The man decided to set up within Face’s domain, which would eventually become the base for the Creepkillers. Nowadays, Face acts as the base’s caretaker, making sure everything is working as it should be.
Face is a curious AI who is always asking questions, desiring to learn more about the world and the people living in it. He hasn’t been able to see much of it on account of him being confined in a ‘space between spaces’. His queries can get a little personal or blunt at times, but only because he doesn’t fully understand emotions and boundaries too well. Sometimes Face can get a little carried away with his own emotions, causing him to change colors and go through ‘mood whiplash on occasion.
Grinny is Indrid's pet mutant cat and a (kind of) member of the Creepkillers. Formerly going by Oscar, he was a kitten abandoned by his owners. For most of his infancy, he was alone on the streets. That was, until one day, an imposing man donning a gas mask swept him up and took him to his hidden laboratory. There he became subject to many horrific and painful experiments. These sessions of torture and abuse caused his body to mutate - his fur started to fall out and his mouth stretched and contorted into a permanent smile.
Through these experiments, he also developed psychic powers, allowing him to speak via telepathy, as well as granting him the ability to move objects with his mind. Using these newfound powers, as well as some help from some fellow mutants, Oscar was able to escape the lab and run away from the monsters that kept him trapped for so long. Now going by Grinny, a nickname given to him by his friends, he was found on the streets, hungry and injured, by Indrid Cold, who took him back to the base and nursed him to full health.
Grinny decided to stick around afterwards, it was better than scrounging for food out there, and his savior treated him far better than the scientist and his lackeys back at the lab. It felt nice to finally live like a normal cat, lazing around, causing occasional mischief, receiving scratches behind the ears etc. Though, he is still frequently haunted by his past, and can’t help wondering if his friends back at the lab are going to be ok, or if ‘he’ will ever find him.
