Freakers

The Freakers Pack

The Freakers are a Generation Hex Black Spiral Dancer pack taking part in Urban Legends to cause trouble. The leader of the pack, Dot Bomb, believes that these online legends that appear in her mailbox are, in fact, instructions from Sykora, the Urge of Paranoia.

Known Members

• Dot Bomb - Rank 3 homid Black Spiral Dancer Galliard - Dot is a techno-savvy Spiral. However, any and all "Glass Walker" jokes are met with a swift claw to the genitals. While mad (in an obsessive/compulsion fashion), she is quite focused and linear for a Spiral. Her biggest problem is that they've done most of the really cool urban legends, and are starting to repeat themselves, using variations on a theme. She feels that this is a sign of Sykora's displeasure with her. (Starting a legend and then enacting it is considered "cheating." Recent events have led to a flood of new legends, though it is somewhat more difficult for the Freakers to actualize them. When not leading the Freakers, Dot writes email viruses and trolls Usenet newsgroups, picking flame wars. Dot is short and very plain. However, that does not stop her from dressing in outrageous, revealing clothes a size too small.
• Simlac - Rank 2 metis Black Spiral Dancer Galliard - Simlac believes that he is the Wyrm's gift to women (and men, he's not choosy). He has been blessed with stunning looks and a gift of gab. His metis deformity is his lack of a tail. His role in the pack is to seed the ground with the stories they are going to enact. If they need to lead a young virgin out to Lover's Land, where the Escaped Mental Patient can eviscerate her, he quickly sniffs one out and talks her up there. Just before T'Lex rips here legs off, he points it's her fault - "Doesn't she watch horror movies?"
• Artful Splatter - Rank 2 homid Black Spiral Dancer Ragabash - Splatter and Dot were the first two members of the Freakers. Splat claims to be part coyote, but frankly, nobody cares. However, he is a talented burglar, and does most of the breaking-and-entering needed to set up their elaborate schemes. Splat's other role is T'Lex's "keeper." He is the only one strong enough to hold onto his chain when T'Lex is in full rage, and fast enough to keep up with him when T'Lex does break free.
• T'Lexlon - Rank 2 metis Black Spiral Dancer Ahroun - T'Lex's (as the others call him) only use to the team is that he provides them with much needed muscle. Most of the time, the Freakers keep him chained up at whatever dump they are using as a headquarters. He's likely to wander off and cause massive amounts of carnage unless they do this. He doesn't mind, and happily watches trashy talk shows while shackled. Splat keeps him on a retractable leash. Rumor around the Hive is that he's Dot's cousin, but nobody is willing to ask Dot.
• Steve - Black Spiral Dancer Kinfolk/Fomori - The fifth unofficial member of the Freakers and Simlac's half-brother. Steve's growing mutation is the Eyes oof the Wyrm, which he usually keeps covered with large sunglasses. However, the pain of the mutation has led Steve to take larger and larger doses of heroin. This is affecting his concentration and his work. He, correctly, believes that is he should lose his utility to the group, that he will die. He is working on a plan to escape the pack, and is searching for asylum somewhere. He has vast knowledge, not only of the Freakers, but also of Black Spiral Hives across America.
