## Big Atlas

#### Cycle 2

Atlas won the Makeover challenge with partner Marianne Laputaine, and the Heroes and Villains duet with partner Kirbie FullyLoaded. She was high for Snatch Game and the Girl Power Comeback Challenge, but bottom for the Witches Team Challenge and the Roast of Amanda Playwith. She was eliminated in the Inconvenient Ball recycled material challenge.

#### All Stars

Atlas competed in All Stars for Cycle 2. As a twist of the season, the winner would be chosen by judges and the eliminated performer would be voted on by the other competitors, but could be saved by the winner. In Atlas' group number verse, she had recorded an joke in her track where she mocked Travis Tí for not having his own show; judges felt this was very poor taste as it was due to systemic discrimination, not Travis' efforts. Because of this, a majority of the cast planned to vote Atlas to be eliminated, with others voting for Crystal Crawford.

Atlas offered winner Civilization a free styled wig in exchange for being saved, and Civil agreed. Both assumed that Crystal would be eliminated and that would be it. However, Production wanted to do a double elimination and needed another person if Atlas was saved. They quietly convinced Robyn Millyonz to change her vote so they had 3 people to choose from. Robyn didn't know many queens as she was Worcester based, and picked Georgia Flu at random.

Civil saved Atlas, and Crystal Crawford and Georgia Flu were eliminated. The crowd immediately reacted with outrage, as Georgia had done incredibly well that week and had gotten favorable critiques. There was huge amounts of backlash against Atlas, Civilization, Robyn Millyonz, and most of all the production team. The backlash was so severe that shortly after the production team issued a public apology, retooled the rules, and invited both Georgia and Crystal to return. Georgia agreed and Crystal declined.

Atlas was safe the second week.

#### Post Gauntlet

Atlas is an active performer in Boston, as well as a popular wig designer.

At the finale, Travis was named runner up to Nadya Plaything.

Travis' number in the Roast is why the pit crew hates mayonnaise.

#### All Stars

Travis Tí entered All Stars representing Cycle 3. He was safe both challenges.

During her group number, Atlas mentioned Travis, roasting him for not having his own show despite his experience.

This was the reason why Atlas was voted to leave the first week.

#### Cycle 5

Travis returned as a Veteran for Cycle 5. He won the first challenge, then was in the bottom for the TransTape Makeover and Snatch Game (as Mark Zuckerberg) before being eliminated in the Spoopy Ball. (6th place).

## Track Record(s)

Raya Sunshine
Georgia Flu

* Boston All Stars Cycle 1
* Boston Cycle 1

Georgia Flu was a competitor in Boston Cycle 1 and All Stars. She was the first person eliminated in Boston.

## Track Record(s)

Georgia Flu
#### Cycle 1

Georgia was eliminated in the very first challenge of Cycle 1, Warrior Queens. She was asked to return for the Horror Icons comeback challenge, and her team, with Majenta with a J, Ramona Mirage, and Missy Steak, won. She then was allowed to return to the competition but was eliminated the next week in the Makeover challenge.

#### All Stars

Georgia entered All Stars representing C1 queens. She scored incredibly highly in the first challenge, doing looks inspired by her cycle's winner, and was considered a top that week. The twist of the cycle meant that competitors were allowed to vote on who should stay, despite not being able to see the performances due to the structure of the venue at Club Cafe, and the winner would have the option to veto it. Contestants were split between eliminating Crystal Crawford and Atlas. Atlas offered winner Civilization a free professionally styled wig in exchange for being saved from elimination. Knowing this was coming and needing an alternative to eliminate, production quietly asked Robyn Millyonz to pick anyone else to vote for. Robyn was from Worcester and didn't know most of the queens, so picked Georgia at random. As Georgia was the only other one with a vote to be eliminated, she was sent home.

This caused huge amounts of backlash against the production team, Robyn Millyonz, Atlas, and Civilization and was widely considered grossly unfair. The production team issued a formal apology to Georgia Flu and Crystal Crawford and invited them to return for the next challenge with new rules. Georgia did decide to return and won the Tarot challenge; unfortunately this was the last challenge of that cycle as the COVID-19 pandemic cancelled future gatherings.

#### Other Gauntlet Involvement

Georgia created Facedown Queens with Majenta with a J, a YouTube channel that reviewed looks for C2 and C3 contestants. She was replaced by Missy Steak for All Stars. Facedown Queens was not continued after the lockdowns ended, but was brought back in a different form by Pancake and Villinda Vile for Get that Grade in C6.

In 2020 Georgia suffered kidney failure and needed a transplant. Her first live show post pandemic was in October 2022 and she still limits performances for health reasons.

## Trivia

* Georgia was either eliminated or returned to the competition in each of the 5 challenges she competed in.

## Track Record(s)

Imogen Dragons
#### PVD Cycle 0

Imogen was the winner of the single challenge of the pre-COVID PVD Gauntlet.

#### PVD Cycle 1

Imogen returned to the restarted PVD Gauntlet after venues reopened. She did not win a challenge, but made it to the finale.

#### BOS Cycle 6

Imogen was the second elimination of Cycle 6. She was safe the first week for the Warriors challenge and bottom 2 for the makeover challenge, but beat Clara Divine in the bottom lip sync, where she had to assemble a Jenga tower. For the third challenge, Snatch Game, Imogen was Rhonda and Foxxy (local Boston drag performers). She was in the bottom and she, Heather Rose, and Angie lip synced while running around the room assembling doll pieces. Angie completed their doll first, so Imogen and Heather were both eliminated.

For her finale guest appearance, Imogen performed a ballad while building a tower and assembling doll pieces.

#### Post Gauntlet

Imogen is an active performer in Providence. She is the host of Yasss And, a drag improv show.
MT Hart

MT Hart is a current host of Boston Drag Gauntlet. He was 3rd in Cycle 3 and competed in the short All Stars season.

#### Cycle 3

MT started cycle 3 having only performed a couple shows but with a history in theater and improv. He won the Steam Punk'd challenge, the first time a king won a Gauntlet challenge, and was high for Snatch Game (he played Shakespeare) and the Roast. He was in the bottom for the Makeover challenge, the Scary Tales group number and the Adult Cartoons duet number.

MT's growth over the cycle was noted by Facedown Queens, who rated his promo look very low but who wound up calling him the "Supermodel" of Cycle 3 by the finale.

#### All Stars

MT entered All Stars for the Cycle 1 team. He was safe both challenges.

#### Other Gauntlet Involvement

MT appeared as a backup dancer for several Cycle 4 contestants. He was then asked to host for Cycle 5 and has hosted since then.

Marquis de Zeppeli

Marquis de Zeppeli is a player character of The Hotel.

## As the Story Goes...

Born to an impoverished couple, Vaen had been given up by his parents to the mysterious Hawkworth Academy in exchange for basic food and shelter. Through early experimentation with alchemical compounds, Vaen had been made into a creature with powers similar to that of a normal changeling. Treated like a test subject, it was lovely music that had granted him solace during those troubled times. It also helped that he was a prodigy, nearly effortlessly playing the lute when he was just 6 years old.

Over the rest of his life, he wowed just about anyone that was willing to listen to him and his music. Then, when he mastered his 'gift' of transforming into anyone, his fame and legend grew. Eventually, he came into contact with other like-minded musicians who had not yet known of his upbringing. Together, they formed the 'Red Royale', and they would go on with his newly adopted title: 'Marquis de Zeppeli'

One night, after yet another stunning performance, drinks and debautary would have awaited the troupe, were it not for a frenzied rival musician somehow sneaking backstage. And it certainly didn't help that said rival was a powerful sorcerer, capable of wish-like levels of magic. At least, that's what Marquis hazeily remembered. When he came to the next morning, his bandmates had scattered to the wind, and his fame and fortune seemingly vanished along with them.

Forced to rebuild himself from the ground up, Vaen adopted his stage name as his own, and set about to rediscover himself out in that brave new world...

## Appearance

Marquis is a changeling bard that is capable of shapeshifting into anyone he sees, he prefers his default appearance in the hotel. He has silver eyes, silver hair, silver skin, and weighs 158 lbs. with a height of 6 ft.
Gameplay in the Hotel

This “West Marches” style D&D community is heavily focused on simplicity, scalability, and player generated content. Dungeon Masters create worlds where other Players can roleplay via text chat, and players are free to enter and play in any world via portals, located in a central hub, the Hotel. Players can interact with these worlds and each other via live sessions or play-by-post text roleplaying (trp).

### Live Sessions

Join live sessions to earn gold, hours credit, downtime, and item rewards for permanent use with your character. New characters start at level 3 with base starting equipment. Level progression is based on the number of hours you spend playing. At lower levels, progression to the next level can be swift - just 3-4 sessions in some cases! Achieving higher levels requires increasing effort. There is NO level cap but in practice it is very difficult even for active players to go beyond level 30ish.

Gold earned in live sessions can be used to purchase magic items from the Hotel magic item shop, using downtime rules to search and find these items. Downtime can also be spent learning new languages, tools, crafting items or other activities detailed here.

### Text Roleplaying (trp or play-by-post)

Participate in text-based roleplay in the various discord text channels and enjoy interacting on your time schedule. This is just for fun, and rewards earned in these channels cannot be brought into other worlds (with one exception using Xanathars guide rules. More explained in the downtime rules here).
Civilization

Civilization (also spelled Civil Lie Zation, shortened to "Civil") was a contestant on Cycle 1 of Boston Drag Gauntlet and on Boston All Stars.

#### Cycle 1

Civilization started the cycle strong with a Top 2 the first week. She was in the bottom for the Makeover and Art Styles challenges, but was never eliminated. However, she had to drop before the finale.

#### All Stars

Civil returned to Gauntlet for All Stars, representing Cycle 1. Her team won the group number challenge and she was named the individual winner for the first week. The twist of the cycle meant that competitors were allowed to vote on who should stay, despite not being able to see the performances due to the structure of the venue at Club Cafe, and the winner would have the option to veto it. Contestants were split between eliminating Crystal Crawford and Atlas. Atlas offered Civilization a free professionally styled wig in exchange for being saved from elimination. Civil and Atlas later stated they assumed this meant that only Crystal would be eliminated.

Knowing this was coming and needing an alternative to eliminate, production quietly asked Robyn Millyonz to pick anyone else to vote for. Robyn was from Worcester and didn't know most of the queens, so picked Georgia Flu at random. As Georgia was the only other one with a vote to be eliminated, she was sent home. After extensive backlash against the Production team, as well as against Atlas, Robyn and Civil, Georgia was invited to return the next week.

Civil did well in the second challenge, but the cycle was stopped due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

#### Post Gauntlet

Civilization has since moved to New York City. She still performs in Boston occasionally.

Agito Yoshino

> *"I have a question. Are you a stand user?" - Agito Yoshino*
>
>

Image From Picrew https://picrew.me/image\_maker/1300090

**Agito Yoshino** is an original character created by, and played by, Darkbird x. He is a stand user who uses **Time in a Bottle**, a close range stand with a dapper appearance.

Agito was the second person to pursue and successfully retrieve the **Rokakaka** with **Visoth Mirin**. After retrieving the Rokakaka, they met up with **Sora Piccato** and kicked off the Rokakaka plot.

## Stand

### Appearance

Time in a Bottle is a stand reminiscent of a jazz musician. It wears a suit and has various buttons similar to those on a saxophone.

### Abilities

**Friction Removal**

Time in a Bottle removed friction from a surface and stores it. The friction stored can be released to use fire and create heatwaves. However, it takes a long time for enough friction to build up in order to use this ability.

## Personality

Agito is a very blunt and distant boy.

He likes music a lot and doesn't shy from admitting it, he has a little bit of temper but it doesn't come out much. He really hates his mom but loves his dad a lot and he cares for his friends.

However, now he is mentally shattered. His mind, due to mental trauma and stress, was separated into five core pieces. Now, Agito only expresses one strong emotion at a time.

## History

Agito was born to a Japanese father and Haitian woman on the day of September 8th due to a one night stand between them. His mother didn't want to keep him but the father decided that he will keep Agito once he was born. His mother cut all contact with the father, leaving Agito with his dad to take care of him. After that agito lead a pretty normal life until the age of 5 when he awakened his stand when he was dealing with bullies.

It protected him from them by punch them in the face and making them run away with it. He was at first confused by what happened but he quickly grown to love his stand and named Time in a Bottle after one of his favorite songs. All seemed well until his dad died in a car crash. That day was heartbreaking for Agito but he always remembered his dad last words to him "find your way in life, and flow like the sea" and with this advice, he decided to try his best to honor his dad and make him proud.

Hotel Lore

## You were there

You are going about your business one day, when out of the corner of your eye you saw something. A crack, as if through glass, suspended in air. There is no glass, only the crack. How strange that no one had noticed it before. Whispers in your mind seem to be calling you toward this singular point suspended in space. As you reach out to touch it, the crack spreads all around you, and your world shatters to pieces. As the world around you falls apart, behind the falling pieces appears a long hallway marked with room numbers. Behind you, a doorway sealed off by glass. You see yourself behind the glass, reaching out into empty space, and seemingly finding nothing there. The glass fades to a dull gray color and slowly becomes completely opaque. Somehow you know, there is no going back. Around you are similar open doorways, leading into the various hotel rooms. What’s inside are not rooms, but entirely different strange new worlds.

## But now you are here

Whether you join your first live session or enter via trp (play-by-post text roleplay), you'll quickly discover the Hotel has a lounge with free food and drink, cubby-holes, a bulletin board, fighting pits for good exercise fun and a lot of doors leading to a multitude of other worlds. Peeking through some of the open doors, you catch glimpses of dragons, frolicking unicorns, gods, demons... Some doors show modern cities or spaceships, others ancient ruins. Other doors are locked.

## Within the Hotel

In a session, the DM makes the call over these, but if you're participating in TRP, a few basic things about the Hotel environment:

* Magic only functions in the Fighting Pits. Class/race features can work but spells can't be cast within the Lounge or Hallway.
* You can summon any food or drink in the Lounge merely by thinking of it, and may also be able to create literally anything by doing so. However, anything created in such a manner ceases to exist if it leaves the Lounge.
* If you fight in the fighting pits and are reduced to 0 hp you are restored to 1 hp, appearing in the stands (this is mentioned in the pinned message in that channel, also note fights can only happen there if all parties involved consent to it)
* The Hallway is infinite? Allegedly? But not all doors can be entered at any time (because the DM needs to be involved for a door to work basically.)
* Time works weird (similarly because of IRL reasons, different schedules etc)
* Any wounds heal, you feel recharged on entering (automatic long rest), and negative effects like curses are either suppressed or removed
