Doris

**Doris** is the bassist of the Nightmareden band serving as both supporting character and the first antagonist within both Colin and Adam's story route. She later plays a full supporting character in Joe and Parker's story route.

## Appearance

Being a member of a metal group and having childhood trauma from her life with her parents, her whole body is marked with black ink with "satanic" drawings and piercings, as well as black accessories with chains and restraints. Her eyes are gray, surrounded by a black line of makeup and light brown hair dyed turquoise on the tips (As the player mistakes her dyed highlights as green). In some trailers, her whole body tattoos are missing.

She has three outfits on her portrait; her first outfit is her rocker outfit; a tight black dress with gray and blue skulls drawn by the chest parts. The back of the arms are open and surrounded by symmetrical waists. Her finger grabs one of the laces of the hood placed over her head. Her legs have dark garters matching the Gothic arêndo and the spiked collar around her neck.

Her second outfit when she goes out partying with her friends, she wears a black leather jacket with spikes on her shoulders, a dark red under midriff where she shows her navel, and short light blue denim shorts with torn stockings underneath them with a black belt around her waist.

Her third outfit is her casual outfit to suit her rebellious personality, a dark purple short jacket which shows her white sleeveless midriff with the sign "PUNK!" at the center with several buttons on the collar. She also accessorized it with leather spiked bracelets on each sides, and dark purple shorts.

Her unused outfit happens to be either her swimsuit or her sleepwear similar to both Sarah Osborne in Mystery Spell and Sofia Flores in Blue Swan, Doris wears only a navy blue shirt with pale dark blue diamond designs and the sleeves are covering her shoulders to show more satanic drawing tattoos on her right arm and a black micro bikini for her bottoms. Despite her whole body is covered with her navy blue shirt, she revealed to have two spinxes tattoos in each sides and a small star tattoo at the center below her belly button and another satanic drawing tattoo on her right thigh. She is also accessorized with two necklaces, one is a dog tag necklace and the other being a loose necklace with a diamond silver pendant. In the ads, she is mostly seen wearing this outfit but with a black choker adorned with diamonds was added to her outfit.

## Personality

Doris has a rebellious personality and is also sardonic, rude and never misses a chance to speak any vulgar language whenever she wants and is somewhat of a misfit when she immediately pokes on the player thinking she was hanging out with the other band members such as both Colin Spencer and Adam Peterson and always talking trash. Matt Ortega also thinks her rebellious attitude can be seen as nice and polite which the player dismisses her behavior as crude. She is also confrontational when she and the player nearly had a cat-fight, especially for her actions in lashing the player out which resulted in the band's album being rejected by the producer. She had quit the band early on in Colin's story due to her jealousy of Colin getting close with the groupies, which resulted in Colin and Adam replacing her with the player, much to her fury and jealousy when she saw them playing at a concert, which started the cat-fight. Doris is ultimately a person who you have to walk on egg shells around, as her mood can change from normal to angry in just one second, the smallest thing can set her off and the people she is around have to be careful not to say or do the wrong thing so she won't get mad.

As Colin mentions to the player in Matt's story, his relationship with Doris was on and off much like both Loan and Samantha in Mystery Spell. Because Doris has had constant confrontations with her parents and drugs around her - since she usually takes them from time to time - her character has been forged strong and liberal for defending what she wants to do. Colin and Adam have said that when she feels tense and out of place, she gets away from them and goes with her ex-partner Jim to take drugs, and out of obligation and duty as a childhood friend, Colin has to take her out of there by force. In one of the secret scenes, Adam has to restrain her not to attack the player, as well as Colin towards the player not to do the same. Over time and due to the player's presence, Doris becomes accustomed to her presence and they became friends while they concerned for each other (Eg: When Colin is about to leave from the band to pursue his solo career in Los Angeles, California).

In the second season, Doris maintains her actions for being a misfit but in a lesser extent. She was angry with the player when she decided to replace Adam with someone else due to his gunshot injury on his right shoulder, and she lashes out on the group to get ready to play rehearsals. She seems interested in Derrick Tremblay following his first play in their rehearsals and is amused by his weird and goofy side. Therefore upon mentioning Malaïka, Doris does not care about other performers with natural talent. This trait was demonstrated in Chapter 7, after the player reveals to Colin that she composes few of the songs for Malaika causing Doris to get mad and threatens her to kick out of the band or choosing between Malaïka or Nightmareden. Colin is also sided with Doris for her opinion as well, leading to have a friction with the player who furiously walks out on them. However in Chapter 9, Doris immediately disappears after learning that Derrick was responsible for hacking the important files in Carter Corp as both her and Derrick are also behind the disbandment of Nightmareden band.

In Ryan's story during the wedding event between Ryan Carter and the player, Doris was replaced by Ashley for unknown reasons and her replacement appears to have a similar personality as her. It is likely that she quit the band due to jealousy like in Colin's route but Colin stated that she let him and Adam down again. In season 3 of Ryan's route, Ashley permanently replaced Doris as the bassist for Nightmareden but she returns at the end of the route when Colin and the group had a volunteer concert during the grand opening of both Jenny and the player's bar and restaurant business. She and Colin were seen bickering about the sound equipment and she said that they should have brought better stuff. It's unknown why she rejoined the band or if she was okay with her former replacement Ashley.

Doris only appears a few times in Adam Peterson's route but is not a major character in the slightest. She is only seen when the player attends Nightmareden concerts, and the player regards her as being as talkative as a prison guard. She is first seen in chapter one while playing at a concert with Nightmareden and is very annoyed with the fans and said that she's not in a bad mood, but just doesn't like sucking up to them. When the player tries to talk to her, Doris comes off hostile and possibly drunk due to the player mentioning her dilated pupils. Doris and the player end up sitting next to each other on a bench while talking to Adam but Doris gets annoyed with the player talking to her and Adam and pushes her aside to leave, leaving the player alone with Adam.

In Joe's story, it is revealed that both Doris and the player's younger brother, Jason befriended the player who works as the city councilor in East Harlem and both joining in her youth renewal project to redeem themselves. Doris also has a friend named Laurie who wanted to redeem herself from drug addiction but was physically mauled due to her involvement in drug trafficking. She also teases the player when Detective Niño di Luca came to investigate about the mauling but became dismayed when the player mentions about her interest in metal heads like Colin.

In Parker's story during chapter 4, Doris enjoys hanging out with Parker Sparke's cousin Rafael when both Colin and the player had decided to investigate to find the leader of El Manchado with a birthmark on his right hip at the beach as the leader they've had been investigating had turned out to be Parker at the end of the same chapter where he unexpectedly unveils himself when the player had taken off his clothes to have sex with him.

In the limited crossover event and like Colin who befriended Peter Bartholy after watching his piano performance, Doris eventually befriended Loan Huxley who simply likes to have a date with her personally but was interrupted due to the player's interference.

In Parker's story, Doris also became friends with the player and also hangs out with Parker's cousin, Rafael. However at the final chapter of the story, it was revealed that Doris was rejected by Rafael following their brief date in Chapter 4, which led her to join with Colin, Jake and Parker to rescue the player from Luis and Rafael and to disband El Manchado.

## Trivia

* She was the first villain to redeem herself, the second being Jenny Blake.
* Many fans dislike her due to her temper tantrums and jealous behavior towards the player and Colin for their relationship, claiming that she is childish and immature. This was after she and the player supposedly talked things out in chapter 6 twice.
* She has many resemblances to the famous tattoo artist and reality TV star, Kat Von D. With her attitude, background, body type, face and tattoos, it is safe to say that Doris is loosely based on her. With the main difference being that Kat Von D is known for having long black hair, while Doris has short light brown hair.
	+ Kat Von D also went out with the popular 80s rock band  *'Motley Crue'*  member, Nikki Sixx, who bares many resemblances to Colin Spencer.
* She can be seen on a Nightmareden poster in Drogo Bartholy's room.
* She can be considered promiscuous after she had "spent the night" with a stranger at a music festival to ease her jealously and broken heart.
* Doris and Colin have an on again off again relationship in Matt's route.
* Doris is featured in an  *'Is is Love? Adam'*  promotion (along with Adam and Owen Hobbad) even though she hardly appears in the story itself.
	+ It is safe to assume that the promotion wanted to feature a female antagonist character and went with Doris over Fiona since Doris is more well known.
	+ The outfit she wears in the ad is never actually seen in Adam's story route.
* Even though Doris only appears in Adam's route twice, she is considered an antagonist due to her hostility towards the player.
	+ Doris was more than likely drunk during her first encounter with the player however so she probably could have realized that her rudeness was unwarranted since she has no spite towards the player.
* She's the only member of Nightmareden whose last name is unknown.
	+ Excluding Ashley of course.
* Ashley permanently replaced Doris as the bassist for the band in Ryan Carter's story route.
	+ This could be because the band has a keyboardist that Colin supposedly has feelings for. This is a reference to his story route.
* Doris has an unused outfit which consist of a grey shirt or dress with a diamond pattern that falls around her shoulders, and she wears a black and chained collar and a necklace with a skull on it.
	+ It's possible that she was meant to wear this in the story but it was later scrapped. This outfit could appear in Colin's season 2 though.
* In the one secret image that she is seen in, Doris does not have have tattoos on her lower abdomen or collar bone, and the Anarchy symbol on her shirt is missing.
* Doris' ink tattoos are similar to the inked tattoos from Filipino-American professional wrestler and WWE Superstar, Ashley Urbanski better known as Shotzi Blackheart. But later shortens to Shotzi when she was drafted to WWE SmackDown.
	+ Also, Doris' dyed turquoise highlights were mistook by the player as green, referencing Shotzi's long dyed green hair which is her current style when she fights in the wrestling ring.
	+ Doris' temperament also references Shotzi's current heel turn when she immediately attacked Sasha Banks after her attempt to distract Charlotte Flair during their contender's match went backfired until she changed her gimmick where she shaves her dyed green hair to semi-bald, revealing her natural black hair for the sake of her real-life sister who had battled cancer.
* Doris could possibly be right handed, as she seems to play her bass with her right hand.
* She was the first antagonist featured in a secret image.
* Doris was the first female character to have tattoos.
