L4D SPN AU, except all my information about SPN is from fanfiction and general osmosis, and also i refuse to stick to canon

or: the au wherein Ellis is a Hunter searching for his buddy/adopted brother Keith, and Nick is the demon he manages to drag along. ft. Nellis, lots of hijinks, and also Everyone Else being tired of Nick and Ellis’ stupid, stupid, slow burn romance

roles beneath the cut, because i wanna Talk About Everyone

Ellis, resident Hunter! has been looking for his adopted brother Keith for years, and is stubborn enough to keep going forever, probably. his dad got murdered by something supernatural in front of him, and the only reason he’s still alive is that his mom got there in time. was taught everything about being a Hunter by his mother, and while he’s really good at it, it’s not a job he’s overly fond of

Nick, local crossroad demon, just trying to skate on by and have a good time. raised as a mob kid, he’s really good at conning people and making deals, but would really prefer not to get involved with anything Hell-related. kind of does not vibe with them, at all. working with Ellis was supposed to be a temporary thing, but then he got attached, and it’s terrible

Coach, owner of a little roadside dinner that Ellis and Nick ends up spending a lot of time at. kind of accidentally becomes the Dad of their little group, against all reason. literally knows nothing about the supernatural, but is taking it in strides. really really tired of the slowburn Nellis. literally the kind of guy who is friends with everyone, and is wildly loved by the whole community. knows how to use a shotgun, but only a shotgun

Rochelle, a literal angel come down to smite Nick’s entire ass. was supposed to figure out why a demon is working with a Hunter because of Secret Apocalypse Reasons, but kind of grew soft for Ellis and Coach. terrifying in every fucking way. thinks guns are really neat. loves fucking with Nick. her and Coach are besties who shit talk Nick and complains about Nellis <3

Bill, veteran Hunter with a squad of duckling idiots following him around. knows Ellis’ mother. well-known in the Hunter community, and knows A Lot about supernatural creatures. helped out everyone in his little squad, and is immensely soft for them all, though hell he’d let them know this

Zoey, Bill’s adopted daughter, she was saved by him when she was very young, and through Sheer Stubbornness, managed to convince him to teach her how to Hunt. the youngest of the group, but also the toughest after Bill. also tends to take on the leader role, and push Francis and Louis around. surprisingly easy-going when not on a Hunt

Francis, was framed by a shapeshifter for a crime he didn’t commit, and ended up teaming up with Bill and Zoey to get the shifter. literally broke out of jail to go kill a fucker. is technically a wanted man. is the most gung-ho of the gang, and has almost died more times than anyone can count. bickers with Zoey a lot, but would do anything for her

Louis, the greenest of the squad, and also the one least likely to be involved in the action. the sole survivor of some kind of supernatural event, helping to hunt down monsters is the one thing that makes him feel better about it. super good at research and putting clues together; also knows a weird amount of random, dangerous, stuff. like how to build pipe bombs. can shoot a gun, but generally prefers not to get included in the murder. has absolutely bludgeon a monster to death at one point or another though

Keith, Ellis’ adopted brother. him and his brother, Paul, was taken in by Ellis’ mother when their parents were murdered. has been missing in action for some years; last Ellis heard, he was looking for Paul. is somehow involved in the Super Secret Apocalypse stuff going on, but absolutely no one cares
