Anshobha is a Chuṛail, a form of demonical vengeful ghoul of an impure aspect, with backwards legs, a vile hog form and an ill temper. She expects the best of her son, going so far as to isolate him from what she considers bad influences (art teachers). She might have some deeper complex about denying any kind of artistic pursuits, but any suggestion to that might just make her bear boar claws and tusks.
Ivar the Boneful is a Lich, with his remains in life as a Víkingar sailing and raiding across the harsh shores of the North Sea having carried over beyond the grave. Unlike the others its not too clear if this old bag-of-bones is still pillaging coast-to-coast in the present, but legends still tell of his nightmarish host of formidable warriors waiting to strike at Niflheim once again.
Aoife is a Banshee, who by necessity is a horrific haunting singer that blows out any sound system as soon as she gets on stage. In her many years of death she is bitter, envious and resentful of her peers, always feeling slighted and passed-over as her days of fame (or infamy) drift out of public memory.
Raffie is a Zombie, rife with rot yet carrying up her corpse every night for school. While there are other HV High students who spend all too much time on the new-fangled Nethernet, this rotten girl is a notorious computer-hog at most downtown libraries. Despite her very niche fantasies and forum drama PTSD too early in death, her “bookworm” keeps her grades steady.
Hurtdog is a gross, putrid, abominable kind of Creepy resembling a ruined form of a a hotdog and a butcher. He’s based quite directly on the classic “Burgrr Entries” Creepypasta by Bogleech, serving only the most disgusting meals only truly fit for maggots. He seems to be very juvenile though, maybe this monster is hiding more than we know?
Gushmond and Styford are Zombies, but don’t let their stagnant decay fool you! The scoundrels are glad to get up in arms for whatever shady shin-dig business blows through town, but it looks like Jack saw their “professionalism” to be sorrowfully lacking.
I don’t think that most of these undead folks would realistically all be that amicable toward one another. Even still, as per the necessity of any vile fanartist, they must somehow all know and interact with one another.
