Harry Mason | Silent Hill /Silent Hill makes no sense but is evil

[haveyouseenalittlegirl]

My wife was killed only nine years after we married, leaving me with a young daughter to raise myself.

Then a few years later we went on vacation to a place called Silent Hill and she was kidnapped. The town is ...evil and I had to fight monsters and solve strange puzzles while trying to stay alive. I...was forced to shoot my only ally in the town because it had taken over her. I couldn't help the nurse I met.

I was tricked by the woman I later found out was my daughters birth mother, who wanted to birth a god into the world by torturing her daughter. And my Cheryl was apparently half of this girl Alessa. But the god got pulled out early by throwing this red liquid on it. And

And I had to fight it.

I killed God and then the girl Alessa gave me a baby and I ran out.

I went home and raised the child as my daughter, as Cheryl. But after the cultmember broke into our home, I was forced to kill them in self defence, I changed my daughters name to Heather, dyed her hair and we moved away. We moved a lot.

I never told her why we were doing that.

And then when she was older. They found us again. The last thing I remember before waking up in this place is being killed. Knowing that they were going to try and use my daughter to birth God again and there was nothing I could do to stop them.

'Was created to love my wife and children, got attached, then Mother sewed buttons into their eyes so she could eat 'em. Had to do that three times before she made me attack our little girl; I did try to help her though, ca~n't say I'm in the right.

I'm shit at picking out apartments. My parents didn't want me to move cross country and if they knew what happened to me, I think they'd just give me a big fat I TOLD YOU SO instead of being happy I was alive.

Mommas, don't let your kids grow up to be photographers.

Barry Hatch ∙ Fable III

[feelofmisfortune]

Mindin' my own business and next thing I know I've been sold into slave trade. [Barry, you had sex with the housemaster's wife.]

Then I go and get killed by a bloody balveween! Can't a guy touch a nice lookin' buttox without gettin' punished? Not that that's always a bad thing- or more to say, it is.

[Shut up, Barry. You didn't include how good your orgy-filled life was thanks to being sold into slave trade- actually no, don't go into detail on that.]

[istheindustry]

Is that a complaint I'm hearing from you, regarding that first part?

[YOU TRIED IT]

Lancer | Fate/stay night

[riastrad_ridire]

Ever since I was a kid, I had the ability to turn into a screaming murderous rage monster when I got angry. Imagine blacking out and waking up covered in blood surrounded by corpses, and you'll get a pretty good idea of me at about sixteen. I don't know what I looked like when I did that, but seeing the way the people I should've protected as a knight kinda shrank back and scrambled for cover after the fact...yeah. Not a good feeling, really.

My teacher's homeland was separated from the normal world. I think, looking back, she might've wanted to meet someone with the strength to kill her before she became something more than human--before she and the Land of Shadows ended up closed off from the world around it. That person might've been me, but...nah. I couldn't have done it even if I had been strong enough.

Few years after I left her, I accidentally killed my son without realizing who he was at the time. Funny thing, magical contracts not letting you say your goddamn name.

Then I killed my only friend when he challenged me on the other side of a war. Sucks, but that's just how it goes. Nothin' more to be said about it.

...While after that, I died. It wasn't too bad, really--got to go out fighting with Liath Macha, at least. Can't complain about that much.

So after that I got summoned by this really great woman. ...Then she got killed by this long-winded pretentious bastard calling himself a priest. So I was stuck with him and his blond idiot of an Archer.

I guess I might as well tack on the fact that everyone I ever knew in my lifetime is dead and I'll probably never see home again.

But other than that, the war wasn't too bad. Met a girl who reminded me of that teacher I used to know, and when the idiot priest ordered me to kill her, I refused. So he ordered me to kill myself.

[A sigh.]

...Magical contracts. They're a pain in the ass.

[roemance]

[tentacletrainer]

When we were only thirteen my four best friends and I found ourselves playing a video game that ended our world by destroying it with meteors, which we were only lucky enough to survive by figuring out the first part of the game fast enough.

During the course of the game we learned that we were doomed from the start, our session was never meant to bear fruit, and we were likely going to die by the end of it if we didn't find something spectacular to save ourselves with.

I took it upon myself to fix the situation, making deals with a man I shouldn't have, following orders from monsters I probably shouldn't have and cutting myself off from my friends almost entirely. There were many times I felt I should have kept an eye on my mother, seeing as I had the ability to, but never did and paid the price for it. My parents are both dead, one of which I never even met but only heard about through my brother Dave and on top of that I never knew he was my father until meeting him here in Johto. I didn't even have the chance to figure this out the easier way as I had at home.

I wasn't even born from my parents but created in a laboratory through ectobiology.

The death of my mother was too much and sent my spiraling into the dark grips of the broodfester throes, which I became a black skinned eldritch blathering monster intent on seeking revenge. On my way to get this revenge I ran into John and had the pleasure of being the one to not tell him about the fact that our parents are dead on the roof of this castle we were in, but show him since he couldn't understand even the simplest of words spilling from my mouth.

Once we got up there we didn't even have the proper time to mourn over them before Jack appeared. He killed John before John had a chance to do anything and, in a fit of blind fury from that, I attacked and soon found myself dead as well.

That left me with only one extra life, so the suicide plan I had going throughout all of this which hadn't bothered me because I had an extra life at the time now really was a final suicide run. Dave was insistent on doing the run instead of me, but I knocked him out so he could help John and Jade, but thanks to one of the Dersites that planned backfired because he had to come save me.

And although we were lucky enough to become gods through such means, we still had to endure being blown up and raising out of a large green sun which may or may not be radioactive. Now we're stuck on a meteor with our troll acquaintances and friends, flying through space to our new goal, but separated from John and Jade. It will be three long years before we see them again. There's no guarantee we're even going to win this game, despite the new circumstances thanks to early suicide plan which I just won't get into, because we still have to fight Jack, who is practically invincible, and then Lord English, who is not just practically invincible but, as far as I am aware of currently, completely so.

Which is why I wouldn't mind remaining in Johto for the time being. It's a rather relaxing vacation.

[pianokeys]

[He's not happy with a lot of this and how the world treated you, but...]

You're a brave girl, Rose; I'm proud of you.

[usedsuitup]

I never met my dad. I mean, I know he's doing well and all, but just for once I'd like to meet him and have him acknowledge me, or something.

I used to be a real hippy until it caused my ex-girlfriend to cheat on me. I've been really scared of having a relationship since then.

I slept with my best friend's ex-girlfriend and almost lost them both. What sucks is that I still have a crush on her.

I'm really scared of being abandoned. Or lonely.

Otacon | Misery Gear Solid | don't look at me like that

[vulpesvivus]

When I was about seventeen, my father committed suicide and tried to take my stepsister with him. I ran away from home after that--let's not go into why.

I was on my own for years after that; at the time, I didn't think it was so bad. But looking back on it, I was...really kind of lonely. I wouldn't want to be left on my own again, not like that at least. I went to college, got a PhD in engineering, and that was how I eventually ended up on Shadow Moses when I was twenty-five.

I thought I was building a defense system. Y'know, something that would be used to help people. That's all I really wanted to do, but...Metal Gear REX was the result, a nuclear-equipped weapon that could devastate the world. It was because of my own blind idealism that so much pain and suffering happened after that.

After FOXHOUND took control of the base, I met Sniper Wolf. Tven though she was a soldier and even though she was part of a group that amounted to terrorists...I don't know, there was just something compassionate about her. Something I really...loved, I guess. But it probably doesn't matter--she died just like the rest of FOXHOUND.

A few years after that, Snake and I tracked down my stepsister. She was working on something called Arsenal Gear--like a Metal Gear, but a lot bigger and more dangerous. She kept lashing out at me, blaming me for running away. Even though she eventually said she never hated me, I...think she would've had a right to. We tried to rescue her...we almost did, but she was killed in the process.

By this time we were pretty much wanted criminals, so we moved our operations to an airplane called the Nomad--basically just myself, Snake, and a little girl named Sunny. We ended up traveling the world; the Middle East, South America, Europe...all chasing after the last member of FOXHOUND and trying to stop him from essentially ending the world. Structurally speaking.

We had a little help--at least I think she was helping--Naomi Hunter. We got along really well, and I k-kind of...fell in love with her, eventually. But then she...I guess she'd been sick for a long time, and her nanomachines were the only thing keeping her going...she essentually deactivated them and committed suicide.

On top of that, Snake...isn't in great condition. I don't really know how everything's going to end back home, but all evidence points to him not living much long either. I've lost everyone and everything over the course of my life, and pretty soon I'll probably lose the only friend I ever had back home. Then I guess it'll just be me and Sunny; whatever happens after that is just...going to happen.

[impulsives]

I lost my family during the Bloody Valentine War, I just happened to survive because I was looking for my sister's cellular phone.

I joined ZAFT's military academy as I had nowhere to go after the war was over. I graduated as a ZAFT Red and a test pilot for a new military weapon ZAFT was developing.

And then I was dragged into the Second Bloody Valentine War literally.

I killed a lot of people fighting for their own cause, and not only that, I saw Stellar killed by Kira due to a large misunderstanding. In addition to that, my emotional breakdown was used by Former Chairman Durandal to control me so I can realize his plan.

...

I guess you can say I never made any good decisions until after the war.

...Okay, so like... I'm a clone.

And the guy I was cloned from made me just to be a seal for a demon.

It's like, someone had to give Dude the chance to stop Akuro. But why'd it have to be me, y'know? Why'd that have to be the only thing he designed me to do? It ain't fair. I just wanted to have a good time. Enjoy life.

I mean, I did it. Took being forgiven after doing some stuff I ain't too proud of, but I did it. Killed Akuro, died getting it done.

And like, it's not like I regret it or anything, since doing that saved everyone. And Johto's a pretty sweet place! But it's like... You all talk about getting to go home from Johto someday. Some of you are looking for the way back, some of you don't want to. Me, I'll never get the chance. I'll never see Nippon again, and unless Johto decides to bring them here or something, I'll never see my friends again.

I don't know what it is ... but people keep dying. There are so many people I couldn't save. I feel responsible.

I've seen ... evil has a face. Sometimes I can feel it coming closer. I don't sleep very well. I have too many nightmares - the same dreams my mother had right before she died. They said it was natural ... I still don't know if I can believe that.

Everything in life is connected. In the grand scheme of things there's no such thing as coincidence or even fate, only cause and effect. What we percieve is a completely different matter. But if everything has not a reason, but a cause, why are these things happening to me? There's a pattern here that can't be random.

Everything seems to come to death. My mother, Marie, Caroline, even strangers. Innocents. Windom ... something in him died too. Now I worry about my father.

My partner killed me. I wished they would have let me die. I'm happy to be alive but I can't help but feel lost.

[atrueheroine]

I was born into a very poor family, in a very poor area of the city. When I was eight, my father abandoned us. When I was eleven, my mother got sick. Very sick. I worked in the factories with my older brother, but he died a year later in an accident. Shortly after that, my mother died as well, leaving me homeless. So I lived in the factories, hidden away.

I don't remember my real name, but everyone called me Page, due to the fact I'd find random pages of books in the ocean and read them by candlelight at night. They were my only escape. I stayed there for a while, before escaping the factory to live in a monastery with a group of very kindly monks.

That is, until it burned down, leaving me the only survivor.

Now I live in the sewers, leading the rebellion against our current monarch. Life is hard but....it's tolerable.

Ryo Akizuki | The iDOLM@STER | Yes this is a dude.

[gyaooon]

First off, I'm actually a man, so I think that explains most of my suffering. ... Well, I guess I can be more specific.

I've always been girly-looking, so people would often buy me dresses and other girl things when I was little. I thought that once I got into high school, I'd grow taller and my voice would change.

It didn't, and I ended up getting lots of guys professing their love to me, and all the girls ignored me. So I decided to take matters into my own hands when I saw Makoto-san looking really cool in an ad. I wanted to be cooler and manlier, so I decided to ask my cousin to help me become a male idol.

... I ended up being shoved into a dress to fill in for a no-show, and ever since then I've been pretending to be a girl. The condition is that if I become top idol as a girl, then I'll be allowed to debut as a guy.

I still haven't told anyone.

Oh, and that's not all there is. I found out that the guy I wanted to be more like is actually a girl. Meaning that even a girl is more manlier than I am... I'm so ashamed....

Atsuro Kihara | Devil Survivor

[babel_hacker]

Before I met Keisuke, I used to be targeted by bullies.

A few years later, me and my friends went to hang out with my teacher, only for us to received modded COMPs and fight against demons we summoned by accident. After that, we're forced spend the night at the cemetery because there's a temporary barrier in place for our protection.

By morning, we found out the government put up a lockdown. It's to contain all the demons instead, as well as the COMPs with the summoning program. So we're stuck inside and have to fend for ourselves from demons, as well as scared people and corrupted demon tamers.

I watched a friend of mine died before my eyes, so I took up his work and unravel some mysteries behind the a law. It made it mandatory for all electronics to be inspected and approved before being sold.

Which turned out to let the government put in devices to produce waves. When you turned them all at once, you can literally microwave anyone in the area to death as a anti-invasion defence. The government's gonna use it on demons in the lockdown, even if innocent people die. We're forced to find a way to deal with the demons before we die that way.

Even as we fight to survive, we still watch people die or become corrupted. It's scary to see police officers killing people.

Other than that, we manage to figure out a way to stop the demons and lift the lockdown. Except Johto brought me here before we end everything.

[enjoymyatelier]

I guess it doesn't matter here given that we're all average, but in my world I'm so exceptionally talented as a magus that absolutely nothing challenges me, which sounds wonderful in theory but in practice is incredibly boring. I've accomplished a lot of things, certainly, but why should I take any pride in them when there's no reason why I wouldn't have accomplished them in the first place? Why should I be praised for them? You don't praise people for breathing, you just accept it as something they'll naturally do and then move on with your life.

I decided to win the Holy Grail War so I would have some sort of meaningful accomplishment to my name, but a completely idiotic student of mine stole the relic I was going to use to summon Alexander the Great, so I had to rely on some backup Servant who may or may not be seducing my fiancee-I don't know, that's precisely the thing he does. I thought things were fine between us but given that she stated she wanted to break off the engagement right before she returned to our world I have absolutely no idea what she's thinking, and I never got to ask her about it because this place is absolutely horrible.

Crow Hogan | Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's

[darkenedgales]

When I was a few months old, my parents died in an incident that destroyed the entire city and tore it off the shore, creating an island, Satellite. While the city on the land was rebuilt, Satellite was kept isolated and used as the city's junkyard. Its residents had no rights and were seen as "scum" by those in the city. The main rule of the island was "survival of the fittest", so it's no surprise tons of people were breaking the law to get the means to survive. Didn't help the criminals that were causing trouble in the city were sent to Satellite as punishment. The worst part was called "Doorway to Hell" for a reason, y'know.

I grew up alone on the streets of Satellite, sometimes finding stuff to eat and place to sleep, sometimes not. When I was a teenager, me and my three friends formed a gang that took over the entire Satellite. It was all fine until our leader, Kiryu, went crazy and started attacking innocent people. We left him, hoping that'd making him stop, but it only got worse. He planted bombs in Security HQ and killed one of the officers while escaping from the pursuit. He was arrested and several months later, died in prison.

Some time after that, I met Robert Pearson, a man who became my mentor and... guess you could say he was like father to me. One night, I came to his place only to find it on fire. It was too late to save him and all I could do was watch Pearson die. His last request was for me to take care of the Satellite's kids the way he did, so I took in the children who'd lost their families and gave them home. In order to make them happy, I started stealing cards from Security, which got me into jail a number of times.

Several years later, people began disappearing from Satellite. It was the work of the Dark Signers, a group that was trying to revive the King of Underworld to destroy the world. One of them was Kiryu, brought back to life as a servant of an Earthbound God. He sacrificed the people that'd vanished earlier to summon his god in a duel and nearly killed my best friend, Yuusei, who he thought had sold him out to Security. Afterwards, the Dark Signers killed almost everyone in Satellite, the kids I'd been taking care of included. I went to avenge them and forced one Dark Signer to fight me. Turned out he'd been trying to avenge the deaths of his family members, too, but went after the wrong person for that -- but I ended up killing him anyway. Then I watched as Yuusei was forced to kill Kiryu. Later we found out that the incident in which my parents died -- Zero Reverse -- had been caused on purpose by the leader of Dark Signers to awake the Earthbound Gods. And then it turned out the person that'd always been the source of hope and inspiration for me, the man who built the Daedalus Bridge... was also the guy who'd been keeping Satellite in its miserable state all those years and knew its residents would be used as human sacrifices. And he wanted to become a god himself to destroy the world and create in anew.

Not gonna lie, that was the worst day of my life.

Three years after his death, I discovered Pearson was actually murdered. I went to search for the killer and found him: it was our mutual friend. Guess he also tried to kill me, but at least he turned himself in once he lost.

There's also that organization, Yliaster, which is trying to save the mankind from being wiped out in the future by destroying my hometown. Y'know, kill millions to save billions kinda bullshit. So now there's a huge city hovering over Neo Domino, ready to crash on it within several hours if we don't do something. And if we do try to stop it, my best friend is supposed to die. But we went there anyway, and... our opponent offered me to change the past so that the kids I've been taking care of hadn't lost their parents. The cost being letting the Yliaster do their thing... if my friend wasn't there to talk me out of it, I would've agreed.

... And now I'm stuck here.

[haveyouseenalittlegirl]

[Wow that is a lot of stuff Crow.]

Seems horrible things happen everywhere. I'm sorry Crow.

[seasaltkeys]

My life isn't really mine. In all honestly, I'm the other half of someone else, and I came about by accident.

But I mean, it wasn't all bad. Life in the Organization was alright and I had friends. But that all fell apart and I ended up fighting them. And I had to kill one of my best friend, and then forgot her.

And then I tried to get revenge or stop them, but I didn't get the chance. I was thrown into this digital world, and had my memories changed so I thought it was real. And I had a life there, I had friends and I happy. But weird things started happening, and none of it was real, and it was all just set up so that people couldn't find me. And when my best friend finally did, I didn't know who he was, and we ended up fighting.

I don't really get to be myself if I go back home. I go back to him.

Kinda why I want to stay in Johto right now.

For the last few years I've been locking my self up in my room... Not really going out or going to school. I became a star on the internet with my music videos and editing, but I didn't really sing. It was very hard for me to do something like that?...

Also there's a pile of unopened boxes full of things I ordered online in my room... it's not the same if you open them after waiting for them to get here? I like ordering things more than using them...

But I got an offer to work as a real idol at 867 pro and I took it even though I was scared of going outside and meeting people... It's hard for me to understand Ai-chan and Ryo-san sometimes but, they're my friends now and supporting them is the least I can do?

[infinitejustice]

My mother was one of 243,721 casualties of an act of war. An Earth Alliance cruiser fired a missile equipped with a nuclear warhead at a PLANT -- a type of space colony -- and destroyed it, killing everyone inside.

My mother's death changed my father. He became bitter and vengeful, and ultimately tried to fire a superweapon at Earth, one that would have boiled away everything on the surface of the planet. Ultimately, I turned against him, and he was shot dead by a man whom he had fatally shot. He died in my arms, begging me to fire the weapon.

NICOL WAS FIFTEEN! HE LOVED THE PIANO! A subordinate of mine gave up his life to save mine. He was a kind boy who only wanted to be a musician.

I did my very best to kill my best friend -- multiple times. And one time, I thought I did for a few weeks.

A group of terrorists who were loyal to my father's ideals tried to drop the remains of the colony my mother died in onto Earth. Ultimately, they succeeded, but we were at least able to break it into smaller pieces before it entered Earth's atmosphere. The drop destroyed several cities and historical sites around the world and killed millions of people.

I was talked into rejoining the same military organization that I had deserted in the previous war by the chairman of the PLANTs. He deceived me the entire time, and had planned to have me eventually branded a traitor and executed. In fact, he tricked Shinn into believing I was a traitor when I fled the base and had him shoot me down. And the woman who tipped me off would later be killed, because I failed to convince her to come with me.

My adoptive father died five years ago. He left me with his ideal, an ideal he was never able to fulfill. I promised to fulfill it for him.

I was stabbed in the heart once. It was only thanks to my girlfriend that I survived.

I had to watch as a helpless young girl was brutally murdered before my eyes. I tried to stop the killer, but I couldn't do anything.

Oh hey, I got my own special mention on your list.

....Sorry 'bout that.
