#crimsonwood preparatory au

[pandemieinverse]

Since I spent a lot of time brainstorming this AU to the point I got tired, I will share the information of each character that appears down here:

But before, a summary of the AU once again since it has been a bit since I talked about it:

Being raised in a family that has been dedicated to detective work for generations, Eleanor’s idea of transferring her son, Freddy Thornfield, to Crimsonwood Preparatory in order to help her investigate a series of murders that occurred there, going undercover as just a new student, wasn’t really that wild to him. He has gone through so many schools changes thorough his life it did not matter. However, since his first day there, he could sense something was… off with the school itself, and every single student and teacher. Either reuniting on the long, seemingly never-ending halls of the educational establishment, or studying on the centuries-old library that has been carefully cared for as to not break, everyone there seemed to guard more than a few secrets. And if Freddy wanted to help to solve the crimes, he needed to race against time and discover the ones that will lead to the culprits.

Now, to the characters (with optional names that I think could fit more with the AU):

ALIVE STUDENTS:

Freddy Williams: The protagonist. He values truth more than anything else, and, due to his training, he also developed analytical and observational skills. While he is a determined person, he sometimes finds himself doubting his own skills. He is also overly cautious.

Bonnie (Byron): He's known for being a bit bizarre at times, and can get somewhat mean, but it isn't with the intention to hurt people, he's just being honest. He finds classes very boring, to the point he often has trouble not falling asleep.

Ann Chica (Annabel): A capricious and stubborn girl. Whatever she wants, she gets it. Her attitude can be beneficial sometimes, and for that, she's one of the best students. Besides that, she's very into making her own accessories to wear, things like chokers or anything that can be sewn, or made into jewelry.

Fox: The classic bad boy with a troubled past, becoming an orphan at a young age. He has a fierce loyalty to his friends. He also gets into fights, which can end up physical, and for such, he goes to detention at least one time per two weeks. Older brother of Mistie.

Golden Freddy (Gael Fletcher): As the son of the current director of the school, Gael is burdened by the weight of his family's legacy and the recent string of murders. Constantly anxious and on edge, the other students hate and blame him for, in their eyes, not taking action. Josephine's cousin.

---------

Joy (Josephine): The epitome of happiness and perfection. Her seemingly flawless persona gets unnerving sometimes. Some believe she must be hiding something. Gael's cousin.

Meg (Mistie): A girl with a short temper. People don't really approach her due to this. Despite her anger, she doesn't resort to physical fights like her brother. She's quite angry at him, too, due to a past betrayal when their parents died. She has a crush on Josephine, one she refuses to acknowledge or accept.

Bon (Blake): Despite his self-assured exterior, he struggles with insecurities, especially concerning love. Best friends with Byron and has a crush on him, though the latter seems to be oblivious towards that. In an arranged marriage with Torrie.

Toddy (Torrie): A young prodigy who excels academically, yet carries an air of arrogance. She has a never ending rivalry with Annabel due to this, and the fact she also makes her own jewelry. Some rumors this competence has the potential to become deadly. In an arranged marriage with Blake.

Springtrap (Skylar): A seemingly cheerful student, yet one who never attends classes. The school's handyman by his own choice, also cares for the old library. Best friends with Fox and Mistie.

---------

Cami (Carmilla): She's known for her interest in the occult, and rumors swirl about her involvement in mysterious rituals. Highly intelligent and perceptive.

Mai (Marilyn): Vivacious and outgoing, she has a thing for the bizarre and unusual but always maintains a cheerful demeanor. Fascinated by the strange occurrences around the academy. often acts as the bridge between her twin brother's calm nature and Carmilla's mysterious vibes.

Puppet (Julian): Calm, collected, and observant, though doesn’t run away from things when they get bizarre, he instead embraces them. He possesses a serene demeanor even in the face of the academy's mysteries, which he is also fascinated with. Him, Marilyn, and Carmilla are often seen together.

Owynn (Owen): While he pretends to be an evil person, his evilness is more cartoony than anything else. Has a mysterious connection to Carmilla, with her doing anything he says, yet they are barely seen together. His apparent control over Carmilla and his personality may be a facade, hiding deeper secrets…

Eak (Ezequiel): “Skepticism” doesn’t begin to cover him. He thoroughly refuses to accept there is anything supernatural around the school. He thinks Freddy asks too many damn questions. He’s more in danger than he thinks. Close to Carmilla and Owen.

---------

Maggie (Morgana): Cold, and somewhat rude, girl. Despite her tough exterior, she is fiercely protective of her group, yet is scared of the paranormal occurrences in the school. Serves as the mediator between the group.

Deuz (Denley): He's the leader of the group, displaying a tough exterior but a strong sense of loyalty. Denley is protective of his friends and has a no-nonsense attitude.

Oxy (Ocvran): Rude and combative boy, also the one that gets in trouble the most. Impulsive.

Onnie (Oswin). The most reserved of the four, though he also doesn’t shy away from getting into whatever is needed to defend his friends.

DEAD STUDENTS:

Fred (Frost): Now one of the many spirits haunting the school, he used to be charismatic and arrogant. He courted multiple students at the same time, trying to hide it. Secret that was revealed after his death.

Usagi Bon (Umiko): Umiko was known for her cheerful and carefree nature, though not a lot of students have memories of her, as she was pulled away from them by her friend, “Loon”.

“Loon” (Real name unknown): A deceased student with a shrouded past. There are no records of him anywhere, contributing to the mystery surrounding his existence. He was exceptionally shy, and Umiko was the only person he spoke to.

Liontrap (Todd): The most recently deceased student. He was acting exceptionally weird before his death, talking about some creature called “The Whispering Shadow”, supposedly following him.

i got in a brainstorming mood for the crimsonwood preparatory au for some reason.

Halloween AU or smth

about the au! my goldami-rotten brain needs to know, have gael and carmilla ever interacted?

carmilla is currently acting as gael's confidante, due to her perceptive nature sensing his anxiety. he really appreciates it since she seems to be the only person who doesn't blame him for "not taking action", though he also thinks of her as a potential threat. he knows it wouldn't be good for crimsonwood if the secrets surrounding the murders and haunting were revealed, actually. he's always carefully choosing his words when venting and tries not to reveal much. also he wants her to think goodly of him, once again giving she's the only student that doesn't seem to hate him.

carmilla has her own motives, though. she just wants to uncover the secrets, specially after todd's death. she doesn't exactly blame him, moreso the school's directives that forces him to guard their secrets, also feels a bit of pity, but she also thinks that if he truly cared about the students as much as he says and didn't saw their lives as disposable crap, then he would be willing to say what is truly going on. she's kinda manipulative with him sometimes.

Oh, una cosa que me olvidé de preguntar: ¿Cuál es la razón por la cual Bon y Toddy tienen un matrimonio arreglado? ¿Vienen de familias con plata o qué?

prácticamente todos ahí son nenes de plata(? digo, la escuela es de esas típicas enormes que casi parece un castillo, y es la crème de la crème, así que si no tenés plata fuiste(¿ diría que las únicas excepciones son spring y los nightmares. spring fue acogido por el anterior director (un tipo viejo) cuando sus papás murieron, pero la verdad aunque lo quería mucho no le veía nada de especial como para considerar ser "digno" de estudiar en su escuela, así que bueno... le toca estar agradecido no más(¿ fox y meg fueron en cierta parte también acogidos, pero en su caso, aunque vivían en la pobreza, como esto está medio basado en cosas viejas y eso, resulta que se les murió un familiar que era muy rico, y sus padres heredaron eso. luego los padres se murieron en un incendio y ellos se quedaron con la fortuna. y aprovecharon eso para volverse más palatable para los ricos e inscribirse en la escuela. los nightmare no más entraron por fuerza bruta emocional(?

pero volviendo al tema, sí, fue por plata. los dos ya eran ricos, aunque bon tenía algo menos que toddy, la cual ya estaba en la escuela. así que con el matrimonio arreglado también se "ganó" la entrada a crimsonwood.
