Characters

Meet Deidra, the resident melancholic among the group of four. Deidra is often found hiding away in their room, savoring the sweet silence and steering clear of the social scene. Social interactions? Not their forte, as they tend to get anxious and stutter, making them the quietest in the crew. Their quick wit and sharp tongue can sometimes sting, unintentionally hurting their roommates' feelings, not that Deidra minds much. Despite this, they actually enjoy spending time with their housemates, particularly when it comes to movie nights. So, while Deidra may seem aloof and sarcastic, they still find comfort in the camaraderie of their friends.

Trivia

Meet Vincent, the self-proclaimed coolest member of the quartet. She struts through life with enough swagger to make a catwalk jealous and swears everyone is secretly in awe of their charm. Vincent thrives on dragging her roommates out of their cozy rooms, convinced that her incredible presence alone is enough to improve their lives. Resistance is futile—they’ll ignore protests with a wink and a dramatic pose.Despite her larger-than-life ego, Vincent’s heart is as soft as her questionable fashion choices. She genuinely cares for her friends, even if she insists on calling it her generosity as the star of the group. Rocking their signature sunglasses 24/7 (yes, even indoors, even at night), she claims they’re what make her an icon. Her big ego, herbo energy, and over-the-top antics keep the vibes chaotic, flashy, and—unfortunately—hilarious.

Trivia

Meet Shannon, the hard-headed one out of the crew. She's loud, fiery, and her anger is as unmistakable as her voice echoing down the hallway. Shannon might try to hide it, but her emotions are as clear as day, often spilling out in a stream of screams or even tears when she can't keep it all in. To manage her intense emotions, she employs the silent treatment—a warning to all that she's not to be trifled with.On the flip side, Shannon has a sweet side too—literally. She's a cake-baking whiz, and when she's in the sharing mood, her roommates are treated to her delicious creations. But if you catch her on an off day, asking for a slice will earn you nothing but a cold shoulder. Shannon may be a whirlwind of emotions, but her passion for baking keeps things sweet!

Trivia

Meet Oscar, the joker of the crew. He’s all about pranks, often teetering on the edge of what’s safe, much to the chagrin of his roommates. From absurd photos to outrageous jokes, Oscar's laughter can be heard echoing through the halls. His favorite pastime? Playing games with his friends and poking fun at their losses, a habit that often gets on their nerves.Despite his playful demeanor, Oscar has a soft spot for helping his friends, particularly when it comes to anything video game-related. He’s fully aware that his antics can be bothersome, but that doesn’t stop him—he loves being his mischievous self and thrives on the thrill of a good prank. Watch out when Oscar’s around; you never know what kind of trick he’s got up his sleeve!

Trivia

Meet Chizzet, the sleepy employee of the lonely Peppino's Pizza. He's a washed-up mime who spends his days either nodding off or cleaning the empty pizzeria, dreaming of a livelier life. Business might be slow, but Chizzet's got the place looking spotless—when he's not catching a few winks, that is.Though Peppino's lacks customers, it does have "friends" who stop by to visit, much to Chizzet's annoyance. Whether they're there for pizza or just causing a ruckus, Chizzet tolerates their presence with a tired sigh and a flick of his cleaning cloth. If nothing else, his days at Peppino's are never boring!

Trivia

Meet Drib, the life of the party and the reason why the term "chaotic" was invented. Born a void monster, she decided to spice things up by wearing a skin suit, blending into Maulseleum like a carnivorous chameleon. Sure, she's labeled insane, but that's just society's way of saying she's living her best life. Obsessed with meat (fetus included, because why not?), Drib's got a knack for controlling her carnivorous urges by devouring an epic variety of food. Picture this void monster strolling around Maulseleum, grinning like she's got the best punchline to a cosmic joke. Oh, and did we mention her only buddies in the former genius of smart cities, Verdaneon, were stuffed corpses filled with grass?

It's all fun and games until Drib decides to morph into her original form for the ultimate cosmic gag. Get ready for the chaos, the laughs, and the slightly uncomfortable atmosphere – that's just Drib being Drib.

Trivia

Enter Slasher, the wolf with an anxiety level higher than a cat in a room full of rocking chairs. With a perpetual sad look in his eyes, Slasher would rather craft a thousand handmade trinkets than make eye contact. While not the genius his sibling is, he's the unsung creative force in the family, weaving unique short stories and mastering handicrafts like a pro. Constantly labeled a "sissy" and enduring mockery from his less-than-charming father, Slasher found his sanctuary in his mother's unconditional love and encouragement.
Post-mom, life became a maze of hiding true feelings and being the stoic rock for his little brother, enduring his father's disparaging comments about not being "man enough." But enter Drib, the chaos-bringer, and suddenly, Slasher feels the walls coming down. In Maulseleum, he's shedding the emotional baggage, embracing his artistic side, and slowly transforming into the beast he was meant to be.

Trivia

Hufford is Slasher's alter ego, a transformation he fears and resists, often resulting in self-inflicted harm. Typically emerging during a full moon, Hufford can also appear when Slasher is overwhelmed by fear, anger, or pressure. Hufford's mindset is that of an angry, cornered feral beast, unable to speak but capable of communicating through growls and barks.After reverting back to Slasher, he has no memory of the night’s events or activities, although he sometimes recalls the killings he committed. Like a curious wolf, Hufford is drawn to observing Drib’s antics, seeming to want to join in on the fun. Despite his ferocious nature, Hufford can be playful and dog-like around familiar faces—but a playful fight with him could quickly turn deadly, so proceed with caution!

Trivia

Meet Freddie, the hard-headed whiz kid with a knack for acing every subject.

Despite his academic prowess, Freddie despises the educators for not standing up against bullies like Slasher. Behind his easygoing facade hides a kid drowning in grief, seeking solace in the hazy embrace of marijuana, unwittingly spiraling into addiction.
Before the Maulseleum chapter, Freddie called an abandoned van home, dealing his homegrown stash to fellow vandwellers. The fact that he's a kid? Unbothered, as long as the weed flows. With a green thumb inherited from their mother, Freddie finds solace in gardening. Yet, he's plagued by a nasty habit of shouldering blame, even for things beyond his control.

Trivia

Once feared as the big cheese of his very own mafia gang, Gus has long since hung up the trench coat and traded his guns for garden gloves. Nowadays, he spends his mornings fussing over tomatoes like they’re his children and lecturing the neighborhood squirrels about “respecting boundaries.” To everyone’s shock (and mild disappointment), he’s actually a pretty good gardener.Despite his “retirement,” Gus still can’t resist the occasional over-the-top mafia monologue while watering his roses—“In this house, we respect the soil!”—while Gracie heckles him from the porch. The two may act like children half the time, but they’ve found a strange kind of peace together: one cocktail, one compost pile, and one ridiculous argument at a time.

Trivia

Gracie is a sly, sharp-tongued ex-spy who traded espionage for mixing drinks and running her own bar. She’s quick with a sarcastic remark, always ready to one-up someone in banter, and carries herself with the confidence of someone who knows she’s the smartest person in the room (and usually is). Despite her tough and snarky exterior, she’s surprisingly warm toward kids and has a soft spot for those who look up to her.Her marriage with Gus is less “serious mobster couple” and more “cartoonish uncle-and-aunt duo” who bicker about literally anything—laundry, gardening, or whose bar has the better music playlist—but deep down, they’re inseparable. Compliments make her beam… unless they come from Gus, in which case she’ll flush red, yell at him to shut up, and then secretly cherish it later.
