Fuck yeah, Town of salem OC lore dump time.

Going through family trees for some of my skrunkly scrimbles. First up, my main investigator; Pip's family teehee. Originally not all their siblings were gonna have 'roles' of their own but they ended up slipping into them, teehee oop.

Martha Checks (Née: Ruperts) - 63, She/her A retired sort of 'socialite spy' who loooves gossip, and nosey-ing on in everyone's life along with asking her kids when they're gonna give her grandchildren. Classic gossip hag, she was dotingly married to Alfred, a defense attorney who didn't mind gossiping about some of his client cases. Despite her glitzy nature and desire of lots of kids, she often put the actual responsibilities of raising the younger to their older siblings. She's most known for her incredible marmalade sandwiches, often nicknamed by younger folk she's had the pleasure of spoiling with as 'grandma marmalade' Alfred unfortunately passed away at the age of 52 after contracting an illness at work, the era of pestilence wasn't often kind to anyone. He was a formal and devoted business man often with his nose in a case and his interactions with his kids short brief, or showing off, if he wasn't at work he was telling his wife all about it. Eliot Checks - Transporter, 42, He/him The totally eldest. Eliot works at the repairs store in town, he and his twin brother Isaac were consider golden-kids who could do no wrong, and naturally absolutely took advantage of just how much they could get away with. Nowadays he's still an easy going and playful guy, fixed up an old car to use for deliveries, and cross town shipments occasionally he transports people as well as goods. Though typically only on request. Isaac Checks - Tos1 spy, 42, He/him

Eliot's twin brother. Isaac works at the library, he's an incredible nosey guy much like his mother and had a habit of eavesdropping on people, and keeping tabs on everything in the town, back in the day he used to be a sort of spy that could trace mafia activity with ease, though he fell out of the hobby after having his own twin sons and focused on raising his kids. The mafia was practically all gone by then anyway, still he kept around a few of his old tracers and occasionally likes to tune in, his sons are older now, so what's the harm, besides it's not like anything's going to happen? Issac is married to a civi called Isabella, they have 3 sons; John Alfred Checks, (20, He/him) who an aspiring law student, though he plans to surpass his grandfathers reputation as a defense attorney and achieve a status as a judge or prosecutor, he has more of a haughty attitude compared to that of his younger brothers, Tanner & Lorgan Checks (17, He/him) the rascal twins that really might've enlightened Isaac just how annoying he and his brother had been in their youth, seriously how many time does he need to tell them not to poke giant spiders (OR SNAKES) with sticks and that no you can't eat the poisonous frog please stop daring each other to try it.

Rosalinda Meadows - 'Socalite' , 40, She/her

The second oldest. Doting party lover, Rosalinda is a stay-at-home wife to Serena Meadows, a caretaker at the local orphanage. If she was to get a role she'd be a socialite though she's mostly Civi, she loves hosting tea parties ever since she was a child, causing idle entertainment for those around her, now organizes all the business meetings for her wife and often hosts birthdays for the children.

Pip Checks - Investigator, 34, They/Them

The middle child. Pip works at the law enforcement as one of the primary investigatives for Salem. They're perceptive and dedicated to their work. A chronic workaholic in the field who often covers the slack of some of their co-workers (*cough* sheriffs) and have a no nonsense approach to most things, a lightweight in terms of drinking though it's rare they take part in many casual activities beyond an occasional drag on the Pipe. Tresspassing, murder or evil activity their perception and occasional knack for lock picking really lets them stay glued to their cases.

During their early years they came across a challenging case that shifted the way they handle their work forever, even briefly going free-lance in order to try and tackle it when the law enforcement had subsequently given up. Whatever it takes in the end they will have their chase, and they will ensure justice comes to pass. Carlos Fitswilliam - Consigliere, 27, He/him

Ah, the spoilt baby brother. Really Pip was supposed to be the youngest, but oops, naturally Martha had far more interesting things to do than raising another child, alas the eldest already flying the coop, rather quickly dumped the responsibility of caring for Carlos to Pip while she went off to bingo nights and gossip parties. Really, can't blame an 8-10 year old for trying their best to be a parent? Carlos gained an incredibly sheltered view on life and a desire for wealth and a mystical fantasy that well being a little charming really should get him absolutely everything and anything he wants, given the only time he really interacted with his parents was his father showing off a legal case or his mother sharing party news.

He became an excellent business man, a retail salesman and land-owner, who uses his incredibly charisma to charm people into renting or purchasing houses and apartments for... lofty prices. In daily life he's a sort of socialite/admirer, charming and sweet, hosting business meetings with potential clients and securing lower prices for purchase and high profits. Perhaps he would've remained in standing with his devotion to his husband, Mathew Fitswilliam if it wasn't for the incredible business proposition offered to them on a rather dull midsummers eve, alas the two of them never miss an opportunity and the godfather certainly struck a good deal. (Alternatively, Carlos could run the roles of Blackmailer or Framer/forger but hey. Let him rizz people into telling him their roles. /j he uses his charm and knowledge for business to research people like clients~ afterall he needs to know just the right things to say and exactly what they buy~) Mary-Anne Checks Tos1 invest, 23, She/her

The youngest of the siblings! Totally another oopsie, but hey Pip did such a good job parenting Carlos why not another!

Mary-Anne works as a journalist for "the daily goldfinch" newspaper, she's an avid nosey nerd who enjoys snooping through things for a cute story! Light-hearted endeavors to cheer up the other townies, she idolizes Pip the most, wanting to be an incredible investigator just like them, and why not, when duty calls she'll try her best to use her journalism and research skills to gather information and help wherever she can! She loves listening to people, trying to make an assessment on their roles from it can't be too hard, right?

[ariniekat]

Jailor

[ariniekat]

Rated M, check the tags for themes. Trickster/Vigilante but it's like 80% Vigilante angst and lore.

Vigilante returns to Salem after abandoning the town in his teens, to see his sister again after she had an accident.

Or

How vigilante joined the theatre.

[ariniekat]

Is this TOS2 Veteran? Or TOS1 Jailor? The answer is yes.

After the events of TOS1, Julius, originally the Jailor of the town, was drafted to war around a decade after the Godfather was executed. The war wasn't far, but no less traumatizing, and bit by bit, it played a big toll on his mental health. Thankfully, he managed to just be sane enough and home enough in the meanwhile to manage to get his nephew Avery on the right foot to succeed him, but the war as well as losing his sister played too much of a toll on him to maintain his sanity further than that. Now, when you enter his house at night... you might just be shot on sight. Julius Howard, he/him

[ariniekat]

Okay so I'm a security guard, right

And part of why I like my job is cause I'm pretty good at deescalating conflicts without violence or police involvement

And that *might* be because my primary coping mechanism for stress is humor, and if the guy in the uniform isn't stressed out, usually nobody else is either

But anyhow today I witnessed a crime, which 911 had already been called for

And I'm telling the guy, you know, as he's running away, that nobody's gonna touch him, we don't do that here, I don't have any weapons and he can totally walk on out if he wants to

And he gives me this 'go-fuck-yourself" type answer, right? As you do

And I fucking

I fucking. Start danCING

I DONT KNOW WHY

I WAS JUST LIKE "aight guess I'll go fuck myself then, cheerio" AND START FUCKING DANCING

LIKE MY BRAIN WAS LIKE "Cool not being attacked, gotta keep the witnessed calm, gotta stay chill and breezy" AND THE PHYSICAL RESPONSE FOR THAT WAS TO SYART DOING THIS SASSY FUCKING JIG

I DIDNT EVEN REALIZR I WAS FDOUNG IT UNTIL SOMEONE POIU TED IT OUT AFTER

and it all ended fine and the dude is in custody and I get a call from my boss like "Yeah we're gonna need to send footage to police"

AND
