Purgatory AU

RED TEAM

Vee_: She/They/It, TV Toon. 6,4 in height. Vee_ used to have an old lime green TV for a head, but it was destroyed and ripped off, so she now has a square cardboard box covering it, one eye hole cut out on the left with a bit of ichor staining around the hole like tears, and one pale green eye drawn on, as well as a small upside down V for a mouth. She has a small black top hat with a green ribbon on top of her box head, which she used to always wear. Vee_ wears a muted light green waistcoat with a white shirt that has long since been stained grey by ichor, a ripped sparkly dark green bowtie and dark green shorts, as well as black boots with small heels and green accents. She has a pair of old white gloves, which are stained in black ichor on the fingertips. Her arms, neck and legs all look like thick metal wire, and are really flexible and durable (so is all of her body) and she has black knee pads on her knees since her legs got injured a bit, so her legs need to be sturdier so she can actually walk. Vee_ has a bandage wrapped around her upper left arm, which came from the knife that she now has on the end of her tail. Her tail is a long thin thing of several wires all tying around a knife. it used to have her mic, but it was ripped off. Vee_'s voice is rather staticy and glitchy, and she can use morse code and binary fluently. Vee is a good survivor, and is a good hacker, so she's taken over all the cameras and PA systems in Gardenview, mainly so she can display warnings whenever a Toon from another faction enters hers or to alert Toons of various things or quiz them (since sometimes she quizzes someone and if they get it right they live but if they get it wrong she kills them). Vee_ is the leader of the Crimson Team, and she isn't exactly the nicest. Yes, she can be nice if she wanted to (which she doesn't), but she is mostly cold and cruel, since she's a robot and doesn't have the best concept on emotions. Despite this, she is very smart, knowing a lot of information about various topics. She blames herself for Shelly going missing (even if she wasn't on her team), and is constantly holding off going on any supply runs just in case any of her team members get killed or injured too badly. She does still care about them all, and would go crazy if they got hurt. Vee_'s full name is "VeeVersion1_". There IS a VeeVersion2, which is basically a version of her that was made as a replacement, and is much better in the way of her not falling apart as much as Vee_ is, as well as being prone to less breaks. VeeVersion2 is in the lower Gardenview levels with Arthur, and Vee_ doesn't know she isn't destroyed. Vee_ despises VeeVersion2, and if she ever encountered her, she would destroy her instantly.

VEE_ RELATIONSHIPS (OPINIONS ON OTHER TOONS): Rodger: "He's alright. But he needs to stop doing runs when I'm not there." Glisten: "As much as it pains me to say this, he raises the mood a bit. But he's so insecure it almost hurts me. Almost." Cosmo: "He's a good healer... Knew Sprout. I don't really know what else to say." Finn: "Watchers never get anything interesting. That's probably why he took on the role." Razzle: "He needs to stop threatening Glisten." Dazzle: "Does a... Decent job at calming Razzle down, I guess..." Shelly: ".... Why did she have to go missing... Why does NO-ONE NOTICE!?"

Rodger: He/Him. Magnifying Glass Toon. 5,9 in height. He's a manic researcher, covered in ichor as he tries to uncover the truth behind everything going on. He runs on little sleep and speaks in a formal-ish way. He has a british accent. He doesn't like RazzleNDazzle much, just because they're crazy. He often hosts the "runs" AKA supply runs when Vee_ doesn't. Rodger has a whole corkboard and red string set up in a little area of the crimson team's base, and he is always trying to collect information and learn of all the secrets Gardenview has to offer.

RODGER'S RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER TOONS: Vee_: "She's a good leader." Glisten: "Cousin..." Cosmo: "I think Cosmo would be better off not healing. Soon we won't HAVE a healer. Though I wonder... What is it that makes him able to tear off his own flesh to heal us." Finn: "Watchful eyes. Although I do miss his jokes." Razzle: "I remember when he wasn't insane. Much like Dazzle. Though what changed? Why is he like this?" Dazzle: "Does he know why Razzle is so insane? Or is he as clueless as the rest of us... So many questions, such little answers, especially when Dazzle himself is on the edge of sanity." Toodles: "Toodles... I... You're better off with Teagan anyways." Teagan: "If anything happens to Toodles, I will rip you limb from limb. Why can't the 2 of you just... Be here with me..." Brightney: "Heh... I remember when her smarts would help with my investigating... And now what? She's on the losing team?"

Glisten: He/They/She (mainly he/they). Mirror Toon. 6,0 in height. Glisten has a fragile ego and is very insecure, and a bit dramatic. Though he is a good attacker, and has the ability to teleport, though it makes him really dizzy. He tries to keep the others looking less like a dumpster fire, and takes pride in his appearance. Though he's terrified of Razzle and Dazzle, mainly Dazzle. He's Rodger's cousin. Glisten tries to act like he's fine and unbothered and that he can deal with anything, but in reality he's not really handing any of this well. He knows that the worst thing you can do in this world is hurt other people unprovoked, which is why he is terrified of Razzle and often doesn't get involved with team races. But he's really helpful during supply runs!

GLISTEN'S RELATIONSHIPS WITH TOONS:

Vee_: "Ugh, she really needs a new box over her head. The old one's all... Eugh..." Rodger: "Rodger, cous'. Your glass is dirty and cracked. At least MINE isn't dirty!" Cosmo: "I think I should give him more bandages. I think I remember where I put some." Finn: "Fishbowl's cracked. Could do with being a bit LESS so, Hmmm?" Razzle: "Y-you... Heh, I... Please don't... Hurt me again." Dazzle: "Dazzle, for all that is GODLY, convince your brother not to KILL ME! Please!" Toodles: "I... I'm pretty sure Rodger misses that kid more than anything else." Teagan: "I don't even know if she's alive anymore." Brightney: "Not the most-.... Oh for fuck's sake, I can't keep on doing this! I miss her, happy!?"

Cosmo: (He/Him). Chocolate Swiss roll Toon. 5,3 in height. The group's healer. He is covered in bandages since when he heals he has to rip off pieces of himself to heal others. He's quite introverted, and often doesn't go out much since healers are so sought after by most teams. He is friendly towards all the Toons on HIS team, and is friends with Sprout, who's on another team, but he WILL hit someone with a frying pan and isn't afraid to get involved if he needs to. Overall, Cosmo is generous and kind, but he is also quite cautious. If he heals someone, he has to rip of a piece of his body to do so, which is why he's covered in bandages and plasters.

Finn: (He/Him). Fishbowl Toon. 5,10 in height. Finn is the watcher, meaning he rarely gets his hands dirty, instead keeping a watch for anything and anyone. He has fish features like fins and webbed hands, but he doesn't go in the water often, since there isn't much water in Gardenview. He likes to watch Razzle and Dazzle threaten Glisten sometimes, but hardly intervenes. Finn also likes to tell a lot of fish jokes, though he doesn't do it as much anymore, since why would he make jokes in Purgatory? His whole body is made of glass, and he has water inside of him (which is visible since he's glass).

Razzle and Dazzle: Twin Mask Toons. He/Him for both Razzle and Dazzle, though when referring to them both at once, mainly use "They". Razzle and Dazzle are conjoined twins, and represent Comedy and Tragedy masks, with Razzle being Comedy and Dazzle being Tragedy. Razzle's mask is white with a large black manic grin, a small crack in the top part of the mask, and a black patch on one of the points. His mask has dark grey cheeks, which give him an innocent look, when he's not. The actual shape of his mask is like a normal mask, but the top bits are curves and pointed, looking similar to horns that curl inwards. Dazzle's mask is the same shape-wise, and is black with a white patch on one of the points, a white frown on his face, and light grey tear-like marks on his face, yet he's not crying. Their necks are bothe thick red ribbons, and are connected to a small shawl-like thing made of the same red ribbon, with a bow tied in the middle. They wear a baggy shirt that is split down the middle and is black on one side and white on the other. Their natural arms are gone, having been ripped off, and are replaced with long red ribbons with 2 points on the end and act as their arms. Razzle controls the left side of their body, and Dazzle controls the right, but it's easy for them to work together to move and do stuff. They wear dark coloured trousers and boots, one being white and one being black. They wear a satchel with a few small pouches that hold various small items, and the main part of their satchel has a knife and a few smaller weapons. Razzle and Dazzle are absolutely insane, and like to threaten and kill other Toons for fun. They need Ichor (blood for Toons) to be spilled to stay sane, even if they're insane. They are part of the Crimson team, consisting of Vee, Rodger, Glisten, Finn and themselves, and constantly like to chase Glisten about and threaten to strangle him with their ribbons, which they have tried to do. Razzle is the more insane one, though he keeps up a cheery personality, until the mask cracks (Hah) and he loses it. It's normally up to Dazzle to calm him down, but he normally is more quiet and reserved, yet more haunting and dark than his brother. When Dazzle gets involved, it's normally when things get really bad. They really like reading. Razzle likes reading really gory horror books, where Dazzle likes to read pretty much anything. Anything Razzle said is in "Speech marks", and anything Dazzle says is in (brackets).

Gardenview Educational Centre and Museum was once, as its name describes, an entertainment centre and museum. The Toons used to be on a children's cartoon, as well as serving as a fun family trip, where adults and kids alike could come and learn new stuff and have fun. But after an incident, the place was left abandoned, and the Toons were left to fend for themselves. So they set up different groups, the whole place being a constant fight for survival and war. The factions are as follows:

Crimson: Vee_, Rodger, Glisten, Finn, RnD, Cosmo. known for being the most imposing/feared team.

Blue- Cocoa, Shelly, Yatta, Teagan, Toodles, Connie. Known for being the second strongest/most powerful team

Yellow- Brightney, Astro, Boxten, Poppy, Shrimpo. Known for being one of the weaker teams, yet have a lot of determination and supplies.

Green- Looey, Scraps, Goob, Flyte, Flutter. Known for attacking quickly and deadly, leaving little remains.

Purple- Bassie, Tisha, Rudie, Ginger. Known for being neutral.

Orange- Bobette, Coal, Blot, Gigi, Sprout. Known for being good trappers.

Long story short, Gardenview is abandoned and the Toons are all fighting for survival. They've split up into several groups, and some make alliances with each other. Every so often, it's like a bloodbath to get to the elevators to go into the lower levels to get supplies. Most of the time, the Crimson Team (named after blood for their violent and merciless nature) (Vee_, Rodger, Glisten, Cosmo, Finn and RnD) get to one of the two working elevators first, and the Blue team (Cocoa, Yatta, Shelly, Teagan, Toodles ad Connie) get to the other one. Every so often, there is what is known as a "team war", where everyone goes and attacks each other, hoping to get as much resources as they can. Typically, this ends in many injuries, and lots of Toons get injured.

All Toons bleed black ichor instead of blood.

Gardenview was founded by Delilah Keen and Arthur Walton.

THE FOUNDERS OF GARDENVIEW

Arthur was passionate about the project, and was more of a lethal pushover than anything dangerous. He just wanted to help, and he ended up helping the wrong person (Delilah). Now, he's guilty about what he helped with, and he is roaming the lower levels of Gardenview, and has been ever since the place shut down. He's alongside Vee Version 2, and they're trying to shut down Gardenview and restore some semblance of peace to the purgatory it has become. Though he isn't as guilty as Arthur, he still chose to be ignorant and turn a blind eye on what Delilah was doing.

Delilah is insane. She is covered in ichor, and is helping Dandy with the "Ichor Operation" (which is what is responsible for turning Toons into Twisteds). Delilah herself is technically a twisted, and has a mangled, ichor stained body, a manic grin, long hair matted with ichor, one arm that is twisted and has an ichor covered clawed hand, and has a gaping black hole where her heart would be, showing a maw of ribs and organs that spill out of the wound. She's kinda on the edge, lost all of her humanity. Though she can still talk and all that, she just has no morals whatsoever. And she's violent. Since Delilah is the one who made the Toons, Delilah can control them to some level (For example, she can change their stats and strengths around (E.g. Glisten would be really fast instead of skilled in survival and stealth, Finn would be horrible at anything liquid related, Cosmo wouldn't be able to heal)). These changes are all temporary, of course. It all started when she accidentally mistook Ichor for coffee, grabbing the wrong cup.

GREEN TEAM

Looey the Balloon: He/Him, balloon animal Toon, 6,3, his body is made up of several balloons, with a pale yellow circular one for his head, long ones for his arms which end in hands that are just made of a thumb and a bit representing 3 fingers (but aren't separate fingers), his left arm/hand being a pale green and his right one being purple. His left arm is mostly gone, with a bit of black ichor at the end. His torso is also a pale yellow balloon, and his legs are long green/purple ones respectively for his left and right legs. His green limbs have purple blotchy patterns on them, and his purple ones have green patterns. On his hands, these patterns are made to appear like gloves, but aren't. Looey also has 2 long ears that resemble the ones balloon dogs have, with his right one being mostly gone and green, and his left one being purple. He has black ichor on his feet and ears, and has black ichor on most of his lower face, covering his mouth. He has a red clown nose on his face, and his eyes are black. His neck is like a long-ish bit of string, since his head is a balloon, and he wears a white shirt with pale purple and pale green polka dots on it, and grey baggy shorts. He wears no shoes. He has a few balloon tails that look similar to the ones balloon dogs have, having 4 of them (but one's been ripped off). Looey is a member of the Green Team, which has Scraps, Goob, Flyte and Flutter. Looey is the one who normally goes to get resources, since he's really fast. Looey was friends with Yatta and Blot, but they're both on different teams, so Looey's normally really upset that he can't see them peacefully anymore. He hallucinates Blot and Yatta sometimes, and normally hallucinates seeing Yatta eating Blot alive or Blot making a noose out of ink and hanging either himself or Yatta with it. Being a balloon, his voice sounds a bit squeaky, though it's not that noticeable. Because of the ichor covering his mouth, his voice is a bit distorted. So it's both distorted and squeaky. Looey is the leader of the Green team, though he has very little confidence and thinks everyone else would be better off without him. He's got a very fragile mental state, but he always puts on a smile. Looey is scared of sharp objects, since he's a balloon. He is schizophrenic, but he doesn't tell anyone on his team.

Goob: He/Him. Goob is a fluffy craft Toon, and is 5,9. He is a very light shade of beige, and some of his fluff is yarn, being striped blue or red. He has a scar going right down the middle of his face, and it can split open to reveal a maw of sharp teeth. His head basically opens like a book, his real face being the maw of sharp teeth and ichor-covered flesh. Goob is Scraps' younger brother, and is quite childish, though he can be serious and helps Toons. His arms are made of a thick black extending wire, with one blue hand with red claws and one red hand with blue claws, which he uses to grab his teammates back so they avoid danger. He has a pair of goggles on top of his head.

Scraps: She/Her. Goob's older sister. Scraps is a paper craft Toon, and is 5,7 (6,0 including her ears). Her head is a pentagon shaped pale yellow origami like thing, and 2 of the flaps (The ones over her eyes) open up to reveal sharp jagged teeth on the flaps and a black void of nothingness on the inside, with 2 small glowing white eyes. She has various cat-like features, all of her being made of some kind of craft item (paper, paper straws, plastic cups etc). She is missing her right arm, and has a pair of light pink cat ears that are mostly perked up, since she's always on guard. She has a tail, which is extending (similar to Goob's arms), and she uses it as a grappling hook to pull herself towards things. The end of the tail has a plastic cup, which is broken and split down the middle, showing what looks (and acts like) a mouth, which can be used to grab onto enemy Toons and injure them. If Scraps is with Goob, she's calm and put together, being quite mature though she has a hint of childishness to her. When she's not with Goob, however, she's animalistic and insane, attacking everyone in sight.

Flyte: He/They. Moth Toon. 6,7. Flyte is Flutter's older brother, and is a moth. His skin is a pale muted light blue, and he has darker muted blue fur poofing around his neck (he's a moth), as well as 2 long antennae that somewhat resemble purple lavenders, though one is ripped and is really short now. His wings are large and are mainly pale blue, though they have muted pink, dark blue and white patterns, resembling moth wings. Flyte has no visible mouth, but unlike Flutter, he can still speak. He has a scar over one of his eyebrows, and is tall and lanky. He's down to earth, though he's always terrified of his friends getting hurt or into danger. He isn't the leader for the Green team, but Looey thinks he should be and constantly tries to convince him to be the new leader. He has eye bags, which he tries to cover up with light blue eyeshadow, but it doesn't really work anymore. He has no arms, so he uses his wings for some things, but mainly he just leaves it to the others to carry things.

Flutter: She/Her. Butterfly toon. 5,5. Flutter is Flyte's younger sister, and has pale light pink skin, pale blue eyeshadow above her eyes, ripped and torn blue and white and light blue butterfly wings that she can no longer fly with. She wears a pale blue dress, and has a ichor-stained bandage wrapped around one leg. She has no visible mouth, and can not speak at all. Flutter is mute. She used to have Gigi write in her diary for her (but since Flutter has no arms (like Flyte), she can't write anymore, since she hasn't seen Gigi in ages since they're on different teams). Flutter also has fluff around her neck, which is purple. Though it's not as fluffy and there's less of it (since she's not a moth, unlike Flyte). Flutter is quite shy, but she does warm up to people eventually. She isn't that fast, but she WAS a really fast flyer, until her wings were mangled. Flutter has a pair of antennae on her head, which end in purple heart-like shapes.

LOOEY RELATIONSHIPS (Opinions on other Toons) Goob: "Yeah, he's alright..." Scraps: "Violent without Goob... I'm happy they're on the same team.. And that i'm not on the opposite team..." Flyte: "I... I honestly think he should be the leader instead. He's more smart and keeps us out of danger." Flutter: "I feel bad for her..." Blot: "... Tell me that wasn't real. Tell me what I- what I saw was fake..." Yatta: "I.. She cannibalises Toons... I don't care, I don't care! She's still my friend, right?" Poppy: "My cousin... Heh.. At least she's doing good."

BLUE TEAM

Cocoa: She/Her, chocolate rabbit Toon. Her whole body is made of chocolate, mostly milk chocolate (but she had some white chocolate on the ends of her ears, on some "fur" on her face and chest/neck, and on the ends of her arms/legs) She wears a faded dark blue dress and has a satchel. She's nice, always putting others first and trying to help her fellow toons. Cocoa is missing one arm, and has various chunks missing out of her.

Teagan: She/They, Teacup Toon. Teagan is made of porcelain and her head is shaped like a teacup, with golden accents and a golden handle. She wears a golden sparkly dress and long murky white gloves. They have lots of plasters on her, which cover up a lot of cracks she has in her. Normally, her teacup head would have Tea in it, but it is full of Ichor now. She acts like a mother to Toodles. She is English, and she is nice but can be stern in a motherly way. She can also swing a bat really well.

Toodles: She/Her. Toodles is eight years old. 8-Ball Toon. Toodles' head is an eight-ball, and all of her skin, similar to Teagan, is made of the same material 8-balls are, being a black plastic-porcelain material. She has a large crack on the top of her head, which is covered up with some bandages. Being only 8, Toodles isn't very violent and is really naive and oblivious to the secrets of Gardenview and what's going on. Toodles looked up to Rodger and saw him as a father figure, but she doesn't get to see him anymore since he's on another team from her. Toodles is never without her black and white dog plush, which has a few rips and has seen better days.

Yatta: She/They. Yatta is a pinata Toon. She is tall and is mainly pale faded yellow, blue and pink. She has some chunks ripped out of her, and various sweets (candy) can be seen, since her insides are made of it. Yatta cannibalises Toons. She has bandages around her left eye, and usually uses a baseball bat as her weapon. She was an acrobat, and she can contort her body since she's really flexible. She's one of the few Toons that are actually able to traverse the vents without getting electrocuted, since she knows her way so well. Yatta also has 6 long pale pink ribbon-like tails, which she can use to make her run faster or to grab onto things. She also has really sharp teeth. Yatta is clinically insane.

Shelly: She/They, Ammonite Toon. Shelly's full name is Shelly Fossilian. Amber slit pupiled eyes. Shelly's whole body is made of the same material shells are, and her head is a beige flat shell on its side (so the swirl is on the top of her head). Her shell has a few small cracks in it. She is quite tall. Wears a muted bleached brown short sleeved shirt with dark brown dungarees that has a skirt attached to them. She wears dark brown gloves and has a orangey-brown bandanna around her neck. Her most prized possession is a participation award, and she always has it pinned to one of the straps on her dungarees. The award is a rosette type thing and has a golden circle with a swirl in the middle and what resembles white daisy petals around it, with the tails of the award being light beige and white. She wears a pair of amber tinted goggles that are always on top of her head so they don't cover her eyes. She has a dinosaur tail and dinosaur feet, as well as claws on her hands and feet. Arm spikes. Shelly is constantly forgotten about, and most of her fellow toons forget about her existence, with very few exceptions. Shelly is good at encouraging others, even if they forget who she is. Being a Toon, Shelly bleeds black Ichor. Sharp teeth. Pansexual. She has a fear of being abandoned and forgotten, which causes her to lash out in fear of being forgotten. Ichor drips from the hole on the side of her shell, and from some of the cracks in her shell. Shelly got ichor in her brain, so she's basically a twisted. She just doesn't know it. Shelly is in denial about her being a twisted, and uses the excuse that she "doesn't want to be forgotten" to excuse her attacks on other toons and how she cannibalises them. Shelly was on the blue team, alongside Cocoa, Teagan, Toodles, Yatta and Connie, but she was left behind after a supply run, so she's been going slowly insane in the lower levels of Gardenview. Sometimes ichor drips from her mouth. Her claws are sharper and you can see her spine and ribs sticking out for 2 reasons. 1: She rarely eats anymore, too disgusted with cannibalising and being unable to keep anything else down. And 2: She's twisted, so her body is slowly mutilating itself. For her, her chest is almost ripping itself open. Slowly and subtly, but it makes her in constant pain. Shelly has a tendency to make shriek-roar combinations, typically a result of being twisted. The shrieks are pained.

Connie: They/It/She. Ghost Toon. Connie has light pale transparent skin, light blue hair that was recently cut short and covers both of her eyes. Connie is pretty much transparent, being a ghost. She has no legs, instead having the classic ghost tail thing. Wears black fingerless gloves, a white suit shirt with a pale blue tie and a white cap. She is pretty flippant about everything, and is often rather nonchalant about everything that happens. Of course, she can still react badly to things and freak out. Connie was dating Gigi before everything went badly, so she can't really go see her now (since they're on separate teams). However, still sneaks out to see Gigi. Connie can turn completely invisible to hide from other toons, so she's very stealthy. She has no reflection since she's a ghost. She has a blue armband on her left arm, since she's on blue team. Connie doesn't typically attack, instead hiding and sneaking up on Toons.
