Added DiffLines:

* CharacterCatchphrase: "Fuck off"


Added DiffLines:

* HiddenDepths: He's initially presented as an abrasive jerk who's rude to everyone he meets. However, he's incredibly intelligent and a tech genius, having built a billion dollar technology company from the ground up (something he often likes to brag about much to the chagrin of others), and is one of the few characters to try the hardest in finding a way to escape the town, by learning as much about the place as he possibly can. He can also play the violin beautifully.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Jerkass}}: From the moment he arrives, Randall establishes himself as an unhinged douchebag with a serious temper problem. He insults, belittles and assaults most of the people he meets, and it results in Donna exiling him to the bus where he's most at risk from the creatures. Even then, they don't waste much time trying to get at him, as all he does is yell at them.

* TheDreaded: Everybody in town is terrified of these things, and for very good reason. They're a race of merciless, nigh-unstoppable monsters that take great pleasure in killing and eating people. Fighting back is also pointless, as they're invulnerable to physical harm and are lethally strong, so anybody who wishes to survive the night just locks themselves indoors until they eventually go away in the morning.

Until he discovers someone hiding onboard that is....]]
