Monster Town Story
After a long time and years of just celebrating Spooky Month, Skid and Pump had grown a bit away from the hobby (Skid more so). That was until one night after a sleepover, Skid finds out that Pump wasn't human at all.
Skid started taking notes and picking up his new interest in the supernatural. Suddenly now both Skid and Pump going on little adventures of their own to figure out the unusual aspects of this town, there's now the knowledge that half of the town are just monsters in disguise. Sadly though they're soon going to find out that sometimes too much information was about to hit them.
They join up with the hatzgang (through Robert mostly) and go off to soon go face to face with possibly a world ending fusion of two worlds... maybe not though Ross said it was a maybe situation.
Characters
These are info about characters +ocs added to the au
of course some of these characters belong to spooky month and are my own take on them.
Concept Art
Fanfics
Pump:
Full Name: Pump K. Demon
Age: 17
Species: Plant mutant
Though being referred as a demon most of his life, Pump is actually a lab grown plant creature.
His bones are structured by Roots and then the rest of his body is made up of mist. Due to being so he has to consume a lot of water to keep him from losing all that mist.
Along with the rest of his family, his diet actually does require him to consume a lot of meant, specifically human flesh, anything else just leaves him sick. Sadly though having that diet causes him to have moments to go feral if he hasn't eaten enough for the day, possibly hurting someone in the process. Though he is a plant creature, he has the power to appear human, he rarely uses it though.
His pumpkin mask isn't part of him he just likes wearing it, mostly because he wore it a lot not only to just hide he was a monster, but also to celebrate Spooky Month with Skid.
Skid:
Age: 16
Species: Human
After fixating on Spooky Month for almost years, Skid ended up finding a new fixation that over powered it. Skid slowly started getting into the supernatural and interest in the bone structure of creatures as well. One of his main hobbies coming from it was making puppets with wooden structures meant to emulate bones, he mostly does this to visualize/keep info on what the creature possibly/ is built like.
Skid keeps a notebook on hand at all times to keep knowledge of the monsters/creatures he met and it's full of interview questions and answers.
Skid has a prosthetic hand due to an incident with Pump when they had a sleepover with Pump when they were small kids, Pump, not eating for the night ended up eating Skids hand clean off. He's apologized to Skid for it for years but Skid doesn't really mind now. Plus it got him a cool hand that looks like it's made of bone so it felt like a win for Skid.
Robert (host)
Age: 17
Species: Shapeshifter
For a long while Robert and his family hid that they were shapeshifters, until Pump got onto them of course.
For a long time he was scared to showcase that he was just a monster in disguise, but Pump and Ross actually got him out of his comfort zone and he's been happy about it ever since. Though being happy there is a lot of baggage he's been carrying for years.
The grey containers on his body are meant to contain his "blood",which without the container, spreads over him and gives him strength he can't control. Once it covers Roberts whole body, he can't control himself anymore, which is a cause of a certain "Incident" that no one knows about.
Luci (little)Age: 8
Luci formed a long time ago after Robert started feeling tired of the hatzgang and wanted a break. His choice was to create a form that was like the spooky kids themselves and named it Luci. Luci soon became more than just a disguise to hide from the hatzgang and became a person of their own.
Luci takes the form of a kid in an imp costume and is VERY energetic. He has no memory of being with the hatzgang and tends to actually try to bully Roy and Ross back when he gets the chance. His trident and his mask are Lucis comfort items (he's fine with taking them off when he gets home but not outside) and if you were to take them off, prepare for a small kid screaming and crying his head off. Other then anything he mostly fronts around Skid and Pump and also if Rob in general goes into a sugar rush.
Jester (traumakeeper)
age: unknown
Goes by She/Her pronouns
Jester was formed a long time ago when Robert was still with his ex-friends.The two of them found out Rob was a shapeshifter due to using his trust. Those friends ended up only being friends with him out of pity. That was until one fateful day they forced Rob into a play that had him had the part of the jester, only to cause him to be humiliated horribly and losing friends on the same day, causing Rob to question his friendships a lot.
Jester only fronts at the mention of the remembrance of the event and sometimes the mention of the Ena universe, believing that she came from there. Jester attempts to find humor or positives in the moment of the event that caused said trauma. Sadly that usually gets debunked by the snakes on her head yelling negative thoughts back at her, only causing the thoughts of the events to get worse. She usually speaks in a glitchy way and laughs way too often. Taking off her mask either reverts her back to being Robert or shows something you never want to see.
Goopy
This isn't an alter of their own but a form Robert takes sometimes when he's really sad during the moment, he usually changes back when he feels better.
Tom (Traumakeeper)
age: 14
Tom formed at the events of when Rob was at Piri labs. Robert used to go by Tom when he was younger, trying to find a name for himself. Though Rob doesn't remember the incident at the lab, Tom surely does. He doesn't mention anything about it though, he's very cryptic with giving away crucial information. When Tom fronts, he takes the form of what Rob would be if the containers were to be taken off, but doesn't carry the power or consequences of it.
Overall he's very nice and straight forward with anything but that past.
Reina
Age: 6
Species: Shapeshifter
Reina is Robs little sister, she's usually very very hyper and a bundle of joy. She takes any moment to call her big brother "Bibi" even if it embarrasses him. She also has a puppy crush on a certain someone :).
Due to her being young, her true form isn't really developed and she sometimes goes into a liquid like state. She's still able to control herself to have a human disguise.
She has a favorite plushie named Nicky! Though not a lot of people know about them, the plush also contains a demon who goes by the given name, acting like her protector at times.
Bri
Age: 34
Species: Shapeshifter
Bri is one of the two moms that Robert has, she's very stone faced around everyone but her family. She's actually very gentle and wishes the best for her family, though she can be very protective in this case.
Since she's the only adult shapeshifter in the family, she had to teach Robert and Reina the tricks to keep their main forms but also set up their human disguises for their safety.
She knows Mora, in fact she's her Ex. They still are friendly with each other, remembering the old days together. Bri used to be a performer along side with Mora, although Mora most majored in singing, Bri always set up dance routines with her. It was until Mora ended up causing a bit of drama herself and almost getting in jail and what not which caused them to split up. She still remembers the dance routines by heart and sometimes still just dances in her free time for fun.
Tizzie
Age: 33
Species: Human
Tizzie is a very awkward person to be around, but will talk your head off if you mention anything of their interests. She usually contributes for going out and getting anything the family needs in case The Group would try to go after them. Though it was hard to go by at first, she loves her children a lot and smothers them in gifts (mostly plushies) despite Bri telling her not to. She indeed does end up babying the two kids though anyways and will continue doing so. Tizzie has a bit of a stutter when talking in general but it gets worse by the level of worry she’s on. Even though she is very happy she still gets scared for her children and her wife a lot.
Kevin:
Age: 22
Species: Human (Werewolf)
He was friends with Candy Dealer (Cici) for years and usually always got help from him in "Deals" (which were one sided but still) The main reason he's a werewolf was because of one of those deals. Kevin was promised protection and the result was becoming a werewolf for that said protection.
For a long while he kept it a secret, of course until Skid and Robert found out about it. Though he never loses control in the form he still saw it as a mild threat to others, considering he doesn't remember what happens most nights.
Mora:
Full name: Mora F. Demon
Age: 34
Species: Human
Mora is Pumps mother!
Mora used to be a performer with a wonderful voice, of course that was until she was found out to have killed a man backstage. Her reputation soon got ruined but she still did underground gigs in order to keep money.
That's where she met Len, she ended up meeting him during the worst moments in the back of the studio collecting meat, but she helped anyways, they ended up being friends, soon to being a married couple as well.
Cici/Candy dealer
Age: ???
Species: Demon
Cici isn’t really the type of demon to let out deals that usually are one sided. He's very caring about deals and wants to help people as much as he can. He met Kevin one day from childhood but set the deal when he was going through his day to day job as dealing sugar for the candy in store. Seeing how Kevin was having a difficult time he went around and helped him be able to protect himself. Of course that didn’t go as plan as he thought it would and is still up to help Kevin now. Though he still has to keep up the act that they’re rivals anyways.
Ross:
Age: 16
Species: human (stargazer)
After the encounter with eyes, he was choosen to be a messanger of sorts. At random intervals his eyes glow and he loses control of his body, which is where his soul is taken to where the Eyes is.
though he looks normal outside of the area where he meets eyes, some people can see how he really looks now. Plus the issue that he barley knows how to use the power given to them. He does know how to bring people with them to eyes, which is just being really close to him.
Roy:
Age: 16
Species: Human
Although he doesn't want to, he knows the majority of people are monsters, Ever since he saw the eyes he's been able to see through the disguises monsters have (of course except for shapeshifters because techically they change their whole structure in general instead of using a false preview, werewolves count as well.)
After the encounter with eyes he ended up seeing Ross for the first time after the change, he ended up trying to deny the new info given to him. Of course that changed after Ross took him to eyes himself, now he's a bit unfazed about the stuff going on and tries to hide the fact that he can see monsters for who they are.
