### **Origins**

#### How he joined Schmuck Squad

From what Red has said it was a combination of Coffin sending BTS he did on Ranma Movie to BuddyVA and Grimm, as well other work he had done in the past and a VFX of a scene in an episode of Akame Ga Kill Abridged. Then soon shorty afterward the edit he did for Akame Ga Kill Abridged he was approached by the team and started working on more projects since.

#### Joining the stream

I think it's best explained by Red as he said it so well that it's best heard from him.

Why did you want to do a Digimon ttrpg?

### **Character information**

ER: Previously Red and Storm had done a short lived stream called Twin Play and while they both enjoyed it, Red noticed to took time away from editing project. So in what he thought was a stroke of genius he thought of an experiment. The experiment was to be on stream and edit at the same time, so he took the absent minded flaw from the Kids On Bike system which would then be a great excuse for his character to ask for things to be explained to him again if he missed something while editing, so much so that in session 3 at the stream start Red openly admits that he took the flaw to work on editing. However when the game started Red was hooked by the beginning intro Nick gave in session one and immediately gave up on the idea so he could fully enjoy the stream.

From there he wanted to find a way he could make the Absent Minded Flaw make sense within the character and so he took that idea to the next step to someone who doesn't pay much attention and become a well meaning meat head. Red has said E.R. has reminded of the actor Scott Menville’s description of Robin in Teen Titans; "he's like a skateboarder, he'll launch into the air and figure out how he'll land on the way down". That comment connected E.R. to skateboarding, along with his well meaning nature.

As well Red has shared that some of E.R.'s injuries were inspired by real life accidents that Strom has had.
