Two new concepts for kids of Crypt TV monsters (who I’m now calling CryptKids).
Alaina, theyby of Soot, is a literal sunshine child in disguise as a pastel goth. They were raised by a somewhat hippie couple who adopted them when they were ten.
They’re blind, of course, but they can distinguish where people are because they can see souls. They can also tell you the exact time and date of your death. Neat, huh?
They have had to improvise with some “disguises” when they go outside because people tend to take one look at them and call an ambulance. It’s not their fault they have bones sticking out of their head.
Unlike Atticus, their father is not present in their life. Soot doesn’t like to be reminded of the fact that he, a being of death, has created life. They don’t even know where their real mother is. Dead, probably. They wouldn’t put it past Soot.
Jehovah, son of The Brute, is a really soft paranoid boy. He was raised by two conservative moms and he’s very button-down and traditional.
His mother is dead. No mere human can fight The Brute and live, much less fuck it. She was a sacrifice that took a strange turn, and was then tossed to The Brute after she gave birth to her baby nine months later. Jehovah was sent away from The Colony, and was adopted by his moms.
Like Alaina, his abilities are all his father gave him. However, Jehovah is much more of a loose cannon than the other kids. If he so much as tastes blood, he’ll go into a killing frenzy like some kind of walking shark. He has to be super careful about this — he takes weekly trips to the dentist to try and file down his teeth so he can’t accidentally pierce his lip.
He once got lice at school and refused to shave his head because of the strange mark on his forehead. He refuses to acknowledge anything about his bio-dad. He hates the thought of even being associated with it.
