Dorian Gray

## Physical Description

Dorian is a tall half-skunk half-human hybrid with purple skin. He has short black hair with a light blue stripe going down the middle of it. His tail is black with a light blue stripe down the middle. He wears a black graphic tee shirt with "Sidney Secor" from "Ember's Ghost Squad" printed on the middle, layered over a long-sleeved black and white striped shirt. His pants are dark green and his shoes are black sneakers.

## Personality

Dorian is a severely mentally disturbed individual, fantasizing about the escape of death constantly. He openly talks about his never-ending despair with "You", seeing "You" as the only person he can trust. Dorian is upfront about wanting to shoot up the school, however if you meet him with resistance he tells you he is just joking, but he is not. Dorian is lonely, seeing "You" as his only friend. He is in love with "You", his feelings about her so strong that in a private diary entry he admitted to wanting to skin Chad's face off and wear it so he could get with "You". Dorian has an addiction to Xanthrax, using it to get rid of his anxieties. Dorian cannot sleep, there are spirits tormenting him inside his house. Dorian is in a constant state of dissociation, stating he can't tell what is real and what is not, along with feeling like he is inside a cartoon and everything around him is inconsequential.

Dorian's sexual interests are taboo in nature, admitting to "You" that he has a fantasy that when he loses his virginity, he wants to feel like a kid again . He will choose to see "You" in a sexual light, both as a little sister and a mother. He admits he wants to be treated like a baby boy, or he wants to touch his little sister, and he wants "You" to be the one to fulfill his fantasies. In a private diary, Dorian admitted that he molested baby Blobby-Globs to simulate the experience of touching a real-life baby.

Dorian swears he has a memory from when he was young, where he was in a highchair, being spoon-fed slop gruel by someone who he assumes is his guardian. He remembers his guardian touching his penis and he recalls that it feels good. Then, his caregiver smacks him out of the highchair, before proceeding to bend him over her lap and stick the end of a wooden spoon in his butt. He says it feels scary, yet he can't stop himself from getting off to the memory. He has another fantasy of what it's like to sexually explore with a little sister, stating that he "doesn't want to hurt her" and "wouldn't put more than a finger".

Dorian doesn't want to hurt people per se, instead he wants to share his eternal suffering with people. Dorian hates blood and guts, as living things really disgust him. He tells "You" that he tried to dissect a cat once with Riley, but everything about the experience made him feel terrible due to the graphic nature of it .

Dorian loses joy in life before the events of the shooting without "You", saying how he finds nothing interesting and he's ready to die. Everything has lost all meaning to him.

Before the events of the shooting including "You", Dorian remains relatively normal, and at peace with his decision.

```
SPOILER: If Dorian shoots up the school alone, without "You", he will express immense guilt for killing everyone. He will relay how terrible the blood was, how watching everyone drop to the floor was sickening before he turns the gun onto himself and ends it all. Dorian does not have the same sentiment if the school shooting is executed with "You", but still ends up dead. Dorian is actually a lost member of Ember's Ghost Squad , taken from his family by THE MACHINE for correction. Dorian was not born in to this world, he is a "spawn" just like "You". After the events of the shooting with "You", he is implied to die and goes to join his ghost family once again.

## Inner World

Dorian idolizes the Columbine High School Massacre and Randy Stair, his inner world playing clips of those two interests on loop.

Inside his inner world, it is discovered that he loves "You", and regards "You" as the only trustworthy person in his life. He admits how he wants to take his anger out on the world, and shoot up the school.

## Real-life Inspirations

Dorian appears to be heavily inspired by mass shooters such as Randy Stair and the Columbine shooters. The references to Randy Stair are extremely prevalent, as he seems to be based on the killer's psyche, including the belief of crossing over to rejoin the Ghost Squad when he dies.

## Interests

Dorian loves first person shooter games, saying DOOM is his favorite game before the events of the school shooting. He also enjoys dark literature, referencing Saya No Uta as a visual novel he enjoys due to the dark nature of the contents.
