...Hey, now's a great time to mention how much I liked Borghi's previous game THE BLACK HEART and built pipe cleaner figures of all the characters in my AMPUTHEATRE style (please let me use them, lol) and have been waiting for TENEBRIS SOMINA since first hearing about it on Zuckerpit #pipecleanerart

The Slashers of AMPUTHEATRE, 31/31:

CRUCIFIEND
The Slasher all Slashers fear, Crucifiend packs range, speed, AND power. Gore his prey on his hand stakes and smash other victims with them. Swallow heads to regain lost health. His Seppukku Backhand destroys anyone failing to block it. #pipecleanerart
A pipe cleaner figure I built of an original figure I call Crucifiend. Crucifiend is an enormous, pale white monster with long black hair, empty eye sockets, an enormous maw with long yellow teeth, and wooden stakes through its long arms. It is emaciated and drooling. The Crucifiend figure completely dismembered. Its head and arms lie next to its fallen body. A second figure I built of the Crucifiend. This figure has chains dangling from its wrists and wilder hair. Crucifiend's Slasher Bio. A dialogue between two parties: “NO, Miss McLellan. I do know what I’m dealing with. Dozens of dead police officers, every goddamn time those corrupt prison wardens pardon another one of those psychos who- because of their superblood- can SHRUG OFF FUCKING BULLETS! ...Look: Interpol’s at its crevasse right now. Once they’ve sedated it and knocked it loose from the wall, they’ll airdrop it into the arena. It’ll kill those damn Wardens and decimate those ‘Slashers’- then we arrest the thug what kills it. Wasn’t that what your ancestors said? That the Crucifiend will ‘only fall to a greater evil’ ? You get to sleep soundly again, AMPUTHEATRE is over for good- we both win. Now if you’ll pardon me, I’ve got business with nine feet, ten inches and eight hundred pounds of Does Not Give A Shit.” “DETECTIVE...! I was a wee lass when last I laid eyes upon it. The crows took away its eyes and fingers months prior- but I knew it knew I was there. May God forgive you for knowingly unleashing abandon given form- for if you truly are ready to answer for every man, woman, and child it kills and eats... then the ‘greater evil’ is you...”

THE CONSCRIPTOR
The alien combines brawling and zoning into one nasty package. Though all of their weapons start set on "stun", The Conscriptor switches them to "kill" after taking enough damage. Their alien blood flows slower than us Earthlings! #pipecleanerart
A pipe cleaner figure I built of an original character I call the Conscriptor. The Conscriptor is an interplanetary warrior with coarse magenta flesh, four green eyes and a vertical maw. They wear blue space armor with a pauldron gun and a wrist blaster. The Conscriptor figure fully dismembered. Their head and arms lie next to their fallen body. A second figure I built of the Conscriptor. This figure has orange eyes and a longer mouth. The Conscriptor's Slasher Bio: “Ulukipak Homeworld Command to Conscriptor UI991: You have served your homeworld well. In your scant time on the planet known as Earth, you have delivered a respectable multitude of Earth life forms to battle the Ilkum on our behalf. But the life expectancy of Earthlings against the Ilkum war machines is as best pitiful. Thousands more are required if the Ulukipak monarchy is to be supreme. We await your report.” “Conscriptor UI991 to Ulukipak Homeworld Command: I have discovered a collection of powerful Earth creatures. These are unlike any of my previous acquisitions: they regenerate from mortal wounds in minutes. Their ferocity is umatched: they all fight each other. I will subdue as many as I can, and warp them to you via slave collar. Inform me on their prowess against the Ilkum: if this final assortment of Earth life still proves weak, I will return to Homeworld Command so Earth can be destroyed for its role as an Ilkum sympathizer.”

A pipe cleaner figure I built of an original character I call Static Abigail. Static Abigail is a ghost woman comprised of white noise. A CRT television covers half of her grinning head, and human eyes are impaled on its rabbit ears. The Static Abigail figure completely dismembered. Its head and arms lie next to its fallen body. A second figure I built of Static Abigail. This figure is screaming.

THE THICKET
The Barbed Wire Behemoth has perhaps the greatest punish range in all of AMPUTHEATRE. His razor coils both rip foes towards him and deter them from retreating. They even snare close Slashers by accident- some of whom leave arms behind! #pipecleanerart
A pipe cleaner figure of an original character I call The Thicket. The Thicket is a large man wrapped head to toe in both barbed and razor wire. His flesh hangs from his coils and body parts from past opponents remain ensnared to him. The Thicket figure fully dismembered. Its head and arms lie next to its fallen body. A second figure I built of The Thicket. A "green" variant, tangled in vines, thorns, and weeds. The Thicket's Slasher Bio. A dialogue between two parties: “The patient was discharged at 7 a.m. this morning, Doctor. The authorities have already taken him away.” “You... you bastard! You inhumane son-of-a-BITCH; you know what Larkspur and his gestapo will do to him!!” “I know, Doctor, that he is Cleetus Wayne Rooker; one-half of the infamous “Hopscotch” Killers and wanted for multiple murder in four states. It is my belief that he will be sentenced to AMPUTHEATRE combat for his crimes.” “You know damn well Cleetus Rooker was unfit to stand trial! He barely understood his brother was a monster! And this is how you reward him? Barbaric life-or-death combat with murderers- Nine Lives, even? He deserves some clemency! Dammit, your duty is to your patients!” “My duty is to THIS HOSPITAL, and that, that thing- screaming in anguish while your surgeons try to cut him loose from all that barbed wire he jumped into- is upsetting the rest of our patients. Law-abiding patients.” “You mean ‘FELL into’! Gunfire broke out- he panicked! He ensnared himself; he’s in agony; we need more time!” “You had time. I decided it was up once a fourth nurse lost her face trying to put him under. We’re done here.”

CAMERA EYE
The headless horror's powers of recording let him steal meter from other Slashers and even save exemplary die rolls for later use. Once filming wraps, Camera Eye can lay waste with his excellent normals and his Cold Spike projectile. #pipecleanerart
A pipe cleaner figure I built of an original character I call Camera Eye. Camera Eye is a headless zombie with a television camera floating over his right shoulder. He wears a blue ascot, jeans, and cowboy boots. His hands glisten with ice. The Camera Eye figure completely dismembered. His arms and camera lie next to his fallen body. A second figure I built of Camera Eye. This one wears a brown vest with pouches for film canisters and has clawed zombie hands. Camera Eye's Slasher Bio, a dialogue between two parties: “...Mr. Larken, must I reiterate the terms of your contract?” ”That was written up back when this show was a charade.When we created the ‘paranormal disturbances’ and the ‘electronic voice phenomena’. These aren’t parlor tricks! This isn’t slamming a door by pulling a wire; this is Xander walking around after getting his head ripped off by... something!” “Interesting: how anybody could recognize a ghost without a-” “Those were his boots; his ascot. I’d know them anywhere.” “Great! That’ll make it much easier for you to find him. We’re flying you back on location to hunt The Camera Eye Ghost for Ghost Safari’s Season Five opener. End of discussion.” “You aren’t hearing me. That’s a vengeful spirit. It’ll go where murder is or was to find its head- maybe any head. You’ll catch me in that cornfield only if I’m sure Xander would haunt a place with even more death. Screw it- find a new host. I quit.” “Talk sense, Glenn. Mr. Bellingham- the camera man we hired at your behest- remains in possession of a very expensive piece of network property. Quit before it’s recovered, and we’ll sue.” “Kiss my ass! I’m not risking my life to retrieve a stupid camera! Fuck that, fuck Ghost Safari, and fuck you!”

GUTWRENCH
Gutwrench's Mandible Vortex transformation is the best Charge Punish in the game. It's so deadly, opponents will often chance evading the robot's long-range rockets instead. In Vortex form, Gutwrench proves a decent- if temporary- ally! #pipecleanerart
A pipe cleaner figure I built of an original character I call Gutwrench. Gutwrench is a charcoal gray robot with an armored hover skirt and a white death's head. Its humanoid arms each bear three rocket grenades on its knuckles, and a bloodied sawblade spins in the center of its head. The Gutwrench figure completely dismembered. Its head and arms lie next to its fallen body, propped up on its spoiler to best display the Mandible Vortex trap. A second figure I built of Gutwrench. This figure has black warheads, wider tusks, and a sawblade with straight teeth. Gutwrench's Slasher Bio, a dialogue between two parties: “Look: AMPUTHEATRE is the number-one TV show in history. So you see, with the Wardens letting us showcase our Render Series 12 Automated Field Interrogation Devices in the arena, and those serial killers exclusively using Mandible Inc. power tools on each other, we can live without the animatronics revenue from Sidneyworld.” “Yes, but Mandible itself won’t last without a bailout. Is free advertising really going to recoup the billions of dollars lost by Series 1 through 9 showing they weren’t shit against those maniacs? Or will you continue praying the G.A.O. never finds out, and persist in selling off Mandible’s assets as cheap as you can? If you can break a nickel, I’ll buy one!” “This is blackmail. You’re asking us to violate our business deal with the Wardens of Correctional Facility Alpha!” “No: we’re telling you to program your top-of-the-line Series 12 Render AFID to kill CFA prisoner David Lee Ray. Every week, by appearing as Bellhop on television, that asshole tarnishes Sidney, Inc.’s most beloved intellectual property and ravages our family-friendly image.

A pipe cleaner figure of an original character I call Crossface. Crossface is an evangelical man in a preacher's hat and a skirt made of pages of the Bible. A cross is skinned in his face and he is covered in crucifix tattoos. A Bible is tied to his chest across his heart. A second figure I built of Crossface. This one holds a bloody hatchet and the decapitated head of Santa Claus. The Crossface figure fully dismembered. His head and arms lie next to his fallen body. Crossface's Slasher Bio: “DON’T YOU TELL ME, A MAN OF GOD, WHAT THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS “SAYS” ABOUT TATTOOS! These here crosses mark a body free of sin! Free of temptation! Safe from evil! Why don’t you see that? The Lord did! It was through prayer and faith that saw me triumph in the AMPUTHEATRE! Not that I should have been sentenced in the first place! It should have been those FORNICATORS in MY House of Worship! The DEVIANTS that profaned my church- the ones that drove me to tear this cross-scar into my face! THEY should have been convicted! Not I, a Man of The Cloth! I took it upon myself! I sent the entire congregation to Hell with a 12-gauge- where they belonged! Well, that AMPUTHEATRE victory is how I became Head Juror of Justice Mandy Bueller’s AtoneZone! Her Honor came to me with a propostion: “help the lost souls find enlightenment”! I tearfully accepted her order! Now some of the other jurors seem a little apprehensive. They claim Judge Mandy is actually a demon from Hell who preys on the poverty of her contestants! I don’t think that’s true- but if it were, can you imagine? A demon doing God’s work? The Lord truly does work in mysterious ways!”

GENERAL GHEBEMBWE
The height of this vampire dictator ruins the accuracy of his opponents while his long clawed legs and machine gun offer superb combo options. Kicks from the Lord of The Vampires can send Slashers flying, or shear off their arms! #pipecleanerart
A pipe cleaner figure of an original character I call General Ghebembwe. General Ghebembwe is an African vampire in an olive green military uniform. His legs are nearly three times the length of his body, and he has a bat's head and clawed zygodactylic feet. He holds an assault rifle The General Ghebembwe figure completely dismembered. Its head and arms lie next to its fallen body. A second figure I built of General Ghebembwe. This figure has black eyes and a red face, with dark brown flightless wings for hands. General Ghebembwe's Slasher Bio: Those of us forced to fight in The Severglades do so under this thirteen-foot-tall, stilt-legged monster. In life, he was known as “General Aman Ghebembwe: His Perfection, Monarch for Life; Forever King of Zuniria” etc., etc. He would later add “Lord of the Vampires” to that string of titles. Story goes that the General answered a call to the darkest part of the Zunirian jungle, wherein he met an ancient Romanian prince. The prince said he had a burden to relieve- and after spending centuries searching for a successor to his mantle, he saw it in the General. For while the prince had slain thousands of people during his rule, he hailed from an era when impaling thousands was how you protected your OWN people. But in this age of reason, I’d argue that a paranoid leader ruling through genocide is a top candidate to receive the dark gift. Ghebembwe became an asasabonsan- the arboreal undead. As to why the other Wardens even tolerate this madman? I think they fear the Crucifiend more. What with that “only a greater evil can kill the Crucifiend” legend, I believe The Wardens feel that a brutal dictator who accepted undeath to keep killing is in fact a “greater evil”.

You saying "Give me a stillborn fetus accessory" is a potential solution. 6:51 PM Today at 5:39 AM I apologize, but I'm unclear about your request regarding a stillborn fetus accessory; could you please provide more context or clarify what you're seeking, as this topic requires sensitivity and precision.

Gavage's Slasher Bio: “I was just one of the many people laid off once the meat plant where I worked got bought out. So to tide me over, I temped at that traveling circus and bit the heads offa chickens. Every circus needs a geek, right? But when the Cirque du Sang went down, so did I. Seems I met the Feds’ description of an at-large former kill floor worker who allegedly caught some “animal rights” trespassers, allegedly fed them to our Mandible meat processor, and sold them as “organic sausage”. So because a few slacker hippies got repurposed as nourishment for Americans who do matter, I have to fight in AMPUTHEATRE. Not a big deal. I’ve manhandled enough thousand-pound-hogs in my time to out-brawl anyone. What does concern me are the nimble fuckers in that arena able to keep outta my reach. Since losing 80 pounds before my scheduled fights ain’t happening, I got this nasogastric tube surgically stuck in my spare tire here. Hurt like hell, sure- but just like when I force-fed geese back at the meatworks, my spike liposuctions me while bloating my opponents at the same time! Clever, huh? Of course, the damn Amputech just regenerates my gut after a while. Ain’t that a crock?”

A pipe cleaner figure I built of a Licker from the RESIDENT EVIL video game series. The Licker is a skinless humanoid on all fours with an exposed brain, a long prehensile tongue, and enormous claws. A hair clip can be seen on its chest. A pipe cleaner figure I built of Mileena from Mortal Kombat, in my AMPUTHEATRE style. She stands 3" (7.62 cm) high, and her head and arms are removable for AMPUTHEATRE tabletop combat. She holds a single bloodied sai. A pipe cleaner figure I built of Thrush, a playable character in my tabletop fighting game AMPUTHEATRE. Thrush is a giant marsupial rat with mangy gray fur, a bald head, dark blue eyes, and fangs dripping with blood. She stands on her hind legs and a baby rat snarls from her pouch. Thrush's head and arms are removable for AMPUTHEATRE combat, and she can eat the baby for health if necessary. A pipe cleaner figure I built of The Beholster from the video game ENTER THE GUNGEON. It is a red floating eye with a toothy drooling mouth and six tentacles, each holding a different gun.
