O03: Jevaun Barrett
O03: Jevaun Barrett
Designated Weapon: Sanna-77
Conclusion: Disco had something here, but he was curt to me this morning so I deleted it. Anyway, he’d probably just say something rude about his brother, compliment the gun he’s got, make some quip about his knee being fucked up, and then say he’s got no chance, but I’m better than that. For starters, this guy’s brothers’ a loser, the really cool gun we’ve given him is not going to help at all, he’s got less forward mobility in him than hobbits from The Shire, he’s got no chance, but at least he’ll probably have a really funny death if he tries to run and fucks up that knee. — Prodigy
- No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: How he dies at the hands of Seychelle, via his own gun.
O05: Clara Micallef
O05: Clara Micallef
Designated Weapon: Malinnov M1P
Conclusion: Hopefully that gun of hers is the military version, that and her natural athleticism already puts her ahead of most of these dead meat. Although her rash nature might complicate things somewhat, if she plays her cards, I don't think that should matter. Unless she tries to fall down on her face and call foul; soccer players are so dramatic. - Quaker
- Vengeance Feels Empty: After spending days to find Caleb Policarpio and Tarren Joseph, who robbed her on the first day, Clara and her ally Lex finally stumble upon a lone Caleb, who tells them he shot Tarren before Clara guns him down without much of a fight. Clara even notes in her narration that she feels "some strange sense of emptiness".
O06: Deirbhile Callahan
O06: Deirbhile Mary Callahan
Designated Weapon: 50 Unique Valentines Cards
Conclusion: Ahh, now this one’s a fighter - tough, strong, and doesn’t mind getting beat up some. Reminds me of me in the way back. Maybe she can give those cards out to make up for her shit personality. - Disco
- Better to Die than Be Killed: Her reason for hanging herself.
- Goodbye, Cruel World!: Her death post mostly consists of a suicide note directed at her family and friends. It also asks whoever finds the note to deliver it to them. The last paragraph reveals that this note only exists in her mind, since she couldn't find pen and paper to write it down.
- Hanging Around: Hung herself in the farmhouse's barn in an act of defiance against the terrorists that kidnapped her and the other students.
O07: Jaxon Chen
O07: Jaxon Chen
Designated Weapon: Bag of Toxicodendron rydbergii ("Western Poison Ivy") (plastic, see-through, roughly labeled with black marker on white paper attached to outside)
Conclusion: Freebird had something here, but it was boring so I deleted it. Anyway, this child reminds me of that one time I tried to branch into online gaming, but I was accused of "hacking". Granted, I was using an aimbot I made, but this one person I was continuously killing didn’t actually know that and started calling me some quite horrific slurs. I think they were supposed to hurt me, but all I did was find his home address, which happened to be in the county over, and send him a box full of cow shit with a warning label on it. I didn't check up on him after that, but either way I like to think I made a difference there. The point is, that box of cow shit would probably have made a more efficient weapon than this boy’s bag of whatever and he will die quickly. - Prodigy
- Boom, Headshot!: How Jaxon meets his fate at the hands of Philia.
- Combat Pragmatist: Isn't afraid of using underhanded means of getting one up on an opponent, such as coating his gloves in Poison Ivy.
- Jerkass: Is not a nice person, even going so far as attempting to steal a (supposedly) crippled student's crutch and choke them to death with it.
- Improvised Weapon: Wraps some of the Poison Ivy he got as his designated weapon around some gloves to create poisonous gloves. It is pretty ineffective.
- Token Evil Teammate: Is the only member of his original group who intends to play right from the onset. Ironically, he never actually kills anyone, whilst another member of the group snaps and becomes the top killer of the island.
O08: Oscar Fatu
O08: Oscar Fatu
Designated Weapon: Organic Maple Syrup 5L
Conclusion: When I was in school, we used to throw rocks at each other for fun. What are they teaching these kids that they’re all such weenies, anyways? At least Oscar can guarantee his time with us is sweeter than most. - Disco
- Big Brother Mentor: Tries to be this for his two younger brothers, with varying success.
- Hypochondria: Has a case of this, specifically applying to potential allergens and food.
- Impromptu Tracheotomy: Happens to him once Fabiano pushes him out of the way when Oscar tries to calm the tense situation between Fabiano and Harun down. When falling to the ground, Oscar's neck gets impaled by the remains of a tent. It's fatal.
- Jack of All Stats: His performance in school is good in everything without excelling in anything.
- Minor Injury Overreaction: Was stated to have these in his profile, due to a low pain tolerance. He even quit his favorite sport, rugby, because of it.
- Nice Guy: Even in a death game, he tries to be friendly to everyone and smiles a lot.
- No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: When seeing that a fight is about to break out between two strangers, he intervenes and attempts to talk them out of it. It ends with him being shoved to the ground. His neck gets impaled during the landing, resulting in his death.
O09: Makaria Wang
O09: Makaria Wang
Designated Weapon: MAG-7
Conclusion: Too much of a beta to die screaming. - Polar
- Ate His Gun: How he dies.
- Despair Event Horizon: Goes through this at the beginning, coldly rationalizing his own suicide.
- Driven to Suicide: Decides that suicide was his best way to go out.
- Lack of Empathy: Suffers from a slight case of this. He feels a disconnection from other people, and tend to think of interpersonal relationships in terms of how they benefit him. However, he tends to misinterpret his own personality and look down on himself, so it's possible that he might have believed himself to be unempathetic when he isn't.
- Medium Blending: His death was written using several outside websites, and included, amongst other things, wikipedia links and a psychological assessment.
- Most Gamers Are Male: Is a gamer, and male... well, at least he's sure of the first part.
- Not So Stoic: Despite being rather unemotional, his awkwardness gets to him when he tries to rob Abel Atkins, only to shyly ask him for his stuff in a way that's straight up polite, stammering all the while. He was internally screaming the whole scene.
-
Self-Imposed Challenge: Either does this when gaming or just straight up messes around without a purpose. - We Hardly Knew Ye: Only talked to a single person on-island before his death, and was seen from afar by another.
O14: Seychelle Charity Tress
O14: Seychelle Charity Tress
Designated Weapon: Multi Calibre Individual Weapon System
Conclusion: What in God’s name is a ‘zine’? What happened to the days when folks just had one name? When did the world stop making sense? - Disco
- Beware the Quiet Ones: The shock of almost drowning sends her on a killing spree. This trope gets even more important when a fight against Ajay leaves her with a wound at her throat, making her unable to speak.
O15: Katherine Thomas
O15: Katherine Grace Thomas
Designated Weapon: Sjambok
Conclusion: I had to do a lot of internet research for this one. The weapon too. Anyways, her identity isn’t going to be an issue since it seems like she’s got it under control. I can’t see it coming up. What will be an issue is that she’s the overthinking sort - I’ve been there and done that. You get one chance to get over yourself and grow up, so for her sake she’d better make use of it. - Freebird
- Intersex Tribulations: Katherine has complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, meaning she's missing internal reproductive organs and was born with undescended testes that were removed at the age of eleven. As a teenager she is involved in LGBTI+ activism in Brisbane. It's mentioned that she has an easier time talking about being a lesbian than being intersex, due to her being affected by trans-exclusionary rhetoric.
- Land Down Under: She is from Brisbane, Australia.
- Lipstick Lesbian: Generally, Katherine comes off as a more of a Bookworm variety of this.
- Smart People Wear Glasses: Katherine has both reading and writing as listed hobbies, and she is a relatively good student. Naturally, she wears a pair of magenta oval glasses.
- Weapon Specialization: Her designated weapon is a Sjambok, a type of South African whip. She uses it against Zander Lin when he starts attacking people.
O16: Philia Constantinou
O16: Philia Constantinou
Designated Weapon: L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle
Conclusion: She theoretically has the profile of the sort of folks who end up killing for a cause. But this one’s too… toothless, I guess. A single break up and all her conviction crumples just like that? She took all the wrong lessons from the hardships she endured in life, I’d say. All the pieces are there but they’re extremely all over the place. - Freebird
Accidental Murder: Ends up shooting Fabiano Vecoli on accident when he tries to grab her gun.
O19: Archibald "Archie" Harper
O19: Archibald Harper
Designated Weapon: Binder of 'Teach Yourself' Audio CDs - Every Language in Alphabetical Order
Conclusion: Quaker had something here, but she didn’t clean up the bathroom this morning so I deleted it. Anyway, why do none of these kids from the UK know any other language? Everyone else speaks like three languages, including English, yet none of these kids even bothered to look up the language of the people who used to live on the land? Okay, the Welsh kid knows Welsh, but seriously? Not even a lick of Gaelic? It kind of bothers me now that he’s got a chance the moment he gets his hands on a weapon better than that binder. I’m going to need a moment. - Prodigy
- Failure Hero: At first, his plan of escaping the island seems off to a good start when he assembles three others around himself. Then they arrive at the village and get seperated during the big gunfight, with Archie and Jia Li ending up at the same place they started. When he tries to comfort Jia Li, she attempts to kill him, which results in him accidentally pushing her to her death. Archie then gets shot dead by Seychelle before he can even comprehend what just happened.
O20: Lyberté Renaud
O20: Lyberté Renaud
Designated Weapon: Rainbow Loom + Rubber Band Kit (x25 of each colour)
Conclusion: I looked into it and the biker gangs this girl is drawing her inspiration from were pretty legit - shootings, bombings, pornography, so on. I don’t see where her actual lifestyle is matching up. She knows how to ride a motorcycle and she knows how to defend herself - kind of. Neither of these things make you the hardened actual criminal she wants to associate herself with the ethos of. She’s out of her depth and about to see that firsthand, I think. At the very least, she can make herself a proper biker’s patch with those rubber bands. - Freebird
- The Ghost: Is this to the other students. Since she had no contact with anyone before her death, the first time they find out about Lyberté's existence is when Jack announces her demise.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: As soon as she is seen, she is killed by a collar detonation in a danger zone.
O22: Fabiano Vecoli
O22: Fabiano Vecoli
Designated Weapon: AX60 Coloured Smoke Bombs (x6, one in each colour)
Conclusion: Honestly, that xenophobia might give him a healthy perspective on trusting nobody. The way I’m reading into it this experiment is going to devolve into chaos fast when these folks are all complete strangers, so someone who is already predisposed to not even try to trust anybody else will have a head start. Problem: the rest of him lacks any sort of obvious card to play- the only fight he ever got in he missed his shot and broke his expensive toys in the process. Not the most illustrious start to a career as a hardened killer, and I’m not holding my breath that he’ll have a resurgence in the necessary timeframe. - Freebird
- Accidental Murder: Becomes the first student to kill someone else when he pushes Oscar to the ground, resulting in his neck getting impaled.
- Jerkass: Probably one of the least likeable students on the island.
- Immediate Self-Contradiction: Gets angry at Soraya for using a fake name. Barely five minutes later, he introduces himself as "Adrian Calleia" when he meets Jaxon and Philia.
- Ignored Epiphany: Upon accidentally killing someone, he is shocked for a moment, but eventually decides that his victim was an "idiot" who "would have gotten himself killed rather sooner than later anyway".
O23: Soraya Martinez
O23: Soraya Martinez
Designated Weapon: Zorb Ball + Battery Powered Air Pump
Conclusion: Dive into that Zorb Ball and roll yourself off a cliff, it will save others the effort. - Polar
- Bilingual Bonus: The Spanish posts often reveal new or more personal information.
- Language Fluency Denial: Pretends to have a very limited understanding of English despite speaking it fluently.
- Painting the Medium: A box disguised to look like a signature contains the translations to her posts. She often speaks directly to the reader here and explains things like word choice, slang, and wordplay.
- Translation with an Agenda: She is open with the reader that her translations are not always accurate. Their accuracy varies from mostly accurate to purposefully cleaning things up to make herself look better to completely different. Crosses into Trolling Translator at times.
O24: Austin Song
O24: Austin Song
Designated Weapon: x1 Bolt of Green Muslin (30 yards)
Conclusion: Freebird had something here, but again, it was boring so I deleted it. Not as boring as this kid, though - I think this kid stands the highest chance of making it through the entire thing just because he literally bores everyone around him to sleep the moment they get near him. Even the weapon we gave him is boring. Maybe his collar will be so bored it will forget to go off if he enters a danger zone. I’m literally falling asleep writing this conclusion right now. - Prodigy
- Rage Breaking Point: Snaps during his fight with Harun Tee, Harun knocks him to the floor and tries to steal Jen Mara's gun from her, proceeding to beat the other boy to death with a crutch.
- My God, What Have I Done?: Suffers from this after the adrenaline dies down and he sees the result.
O25: Tarren Joseph
O25: Tarren Joseph
Designated Weapon: Yellow AFL Game Ball
Conclusion: On the surface a fencer who's good socially seems like a safe shot, but then you look deeper and realise this girl is doomed. Her weapon is bad, her lack of strength will make close quarters a nightmare and her dependency on others will hinder her as time goes on. Maybe she'll manage, but what I see is a girl about to learn her ability to earn high scores means nothing on the field. - Quaker
- Second-Person Narration: Most of her narration is written this way.
- The Corrupter: Ropes her partner Caleb to do all the dirty work for her. It's questionable if he would have ended up killing three people without her influence.
O26: Harun Tee
O26: Harun Tee
Designated Weapon: The Great Book of British Useless Information, by Hannah Warner
Conclusion: You know, I miss the days where you just went out and picked up heavy shit to get stronger. Now it’s all CrossFart and 30 Day Shreds and - it isn’t hard to live a long time. Anyways, he seems fine physically, but with that weapon, he’s about to adapt part of its title - useless. - Disco
- Jerkass: Harun's confrontational and regularly trades barbs with other students that he encounters due to his attitude.
- Obfuscating Disability: After stealing one of Artie's crutches, he fools Jaxon Chen this way for a short while.
