+1 final girl

[killer]

Hi, everyone! I am Lia, brand new to the game, bringing with me Sam Carpenter from the two most recent entries in the Scream franchise. Sam is the biological daughter of one of the franchise's original killers, a secret she uncovered by accident when she was thirteen. Since then, Sam has been grappling with what it means to be a serial killer's daughter. It doesn't help that she occasionally sees visions of her father encouraging her to give in to her darkest urges. More recently, Sam survived two copycat murder sprees in the span of six months, the first of which was orchestrated in part by her then-boyfriend, so she is currently just a tightly wound ball of under-processed trauma with severe trust issues.

Here is Sam's permissions post; if needed, you can comment to opt out of potentially offensive topics. I can be reached by PM (most reliable), cosmology (feel free to add), or howlites @ Discord.

❤️ Thank you for having me, I am so excited to be here!

Scream is kind of my childhood even if I can't say I've seen the modern movies. I can throw you a vampire who has a very intimate relationship with murder who would definitely increase her trust issues in the long run- or his opposite, a kind man who has relatively bottomless patience and zero world experience but is very determined to help others.

I mean, surviving two murder sprees is impressive. Welcome aboard!

[killer]

Thank you for the welcome! I'm biased but the recent installments are my favorite Scream sequels. I'm looking forward to tagging both your guys with Sam for very different results, haha.

I'm excited to see a Scream character in game. She's gonna get by on her moxie alone, lmao

Can't wait to start tagging you!

[killer]

Thank you, I'm looking forward to tagging you too! I'm not familiar with Death Stranding (not that it'll stop me from tagging Heartman) but I loved The Nice Guys, I've actually been thinking about a rewatch.

Hello and welcome, I'm super stoked to see Sam here, what a cool character addition to the game!!! I'm Jhey and I have two horror guys of my own: The Terror's Edward Little (a Victorian naval officer from a fictionalised horror depiction of what happened to the lost Franklin Expedition) and Sputnik's Konstantin Veshnyakov (a commander cosmonaut who returned from space with a gnarly parasitic alien in his guts that likes to munch people... and is here in game with him, which should be totally fine!)

I'd love to toss one/both of them her way sometime, and am looking forward to seeing her around the frozen horror hell ♡

[killer]

Hello and thank you for the welcome! I'm definitely gonna look out for your guys to tag! Also throwing The Terror and Sputnik on my watch list, they seem very interesting!

Hey, Lia! I'm Cheryl (ur head mod 👀), welcome to Singillatim!! God, poor Sam has got it rough, man. I'm here with Kate here from Life Is Strange and I also play my sad zombie Kieren from a short-lived BBC zombie drama called In The Flesh.

[killer]

Hi Chderyl! (I'm leaving that typo in hopes it makes you laugh.) Thank you for having me. I'm not familiar with either of your canons but I did just buy Life is Strange on sale, so... soon! Either way I look forward to tagging you.

[burying]

IT DID MAKE ME LAUGH THO I once had friends write me a note and typo'd my name as 'chergl' and it still makes me laugh tbh.

And ohhh, you're in for some fun! Admittedly, I didn't play LiS until around this time last year so like you're fine. People showing up at all times to this party of feels.

Welcome to the game and hi5 from a sci-fi final girl! I loved Sam in her first movie; still need to catch the second one. La'an here is the sole survivor of an alien massacre, and her ancestor was a mass-murdering dictator who has (figuratively) haunted her for her entire life, so... yay for kind of having things in common?

[killer]

Thank you for the welcome and very hi5 indeed! Sam is not expecting to meet someone with such similar life experience, like ever, so it will be fascinating to see where their CR goes.
