Level Playthrough: "The Crimson Campus"
Setting:
The level takes place on a sprawling, darkened university campus after hours. Rain patters against the windows, and distant thunder rumbles in the background. The flickering fluorescent lights in the classrooms and hallways cast eerie shadows, while scattered papers and overturned desks suggest recent chaos. The player must stealthily eliminate ten female enemies using only improvised school items such as pens, pencils, scissors, rulers, and textbooks.
Enemy Encounters
1. Bella ("The Prefect")
Position: Standing by the main campus entrance, flipping through a clipboard and checking off names.
Appearance: Neatly dressed in a blazer and skirt, with an air of strict authority.
Personality: Perfectionist and self-assured, a stickler for rules.
Encounter:
The player sneaks up as Bella mutters about someone not signing in. A sharpened pencil is driven into the back of her neck. She gasps, dropping her clipboard as blood dribbles down her collar. Staggering forward, she collapses against the door, her strict demeanor fading as she slumps to the ground.
2. Jade ("The Track Star")
Position: Jogging in circles around the outdoor courtyard, staying limber and alert.
Appearance: Athletic build, wearing a hoodie and running shorts, earbuds in her ears.
Personality: Confident and competitive, always on the move.
Encounter:
The player waits for Jade to pass by a shadowed bench, gripping a metal ruler. As she sprints past, the ruler is jammed into her ribs. She lets out a sharp cry, ripping out her earbuds as blood trickles down her side. Stumbling to her knees, she clutches the wound before collapsing face-first into the wet grass.
3. Emily ("The Librarian")
Position: Seated behind the library desk, sorting through returned books.
Appearance: Quiet and reserved, wearing glasses and a cardigan.
Personality: Intellectual and meticulous, deeply focused on her work.
Encounter:
Emily doesn’t notice the player approach from behind the shelves. A hardcover textbook is brought down on her head with a sickening thud. She jerks forward, glasses flying off her face as she crumples onto the desk. Blood seeps from a wound on her temple, staining the library ledger she was working on.
4. Mia ("The Artist")
Position: Painting on a canvas in the art studio, her back turned to the room.
Appearance: Wearing a paint-stained smock, her hair tied up messily.
Personality: Dreamy and distracted, lost in her creative process.
Encounter:
The player grabs a pair of scissors from a nearby table and approaches silently. With a quick motion, the scissors are plunged into Mia’s back. She lets out a strangled gasp, paintbrush falling from her hand as she stumbles into her canvas, smearing blood and paint together before sliding to the floor.
5. Riley ("The Gossip")
Position: Sitting on a couch in the student lounge, scrolling through her phone.
Appearance: Casual jeans and a crop top, with a loud personality.
Personality: Chatty and distracted, constantly texting or talking.
Encounter:
The player picks up a sharpened pencil from a nearby table. Riley doesn’t even look up until it’s too late; the pencil is driven into her eye. She shrieks, dropping her phone as blood spurts from the wound. Stumbling off the couch, she collapses onto the floor, her hand twitching once before going still.
6. Sam ("The Debate Captain")
Position: Practicing arguments in an empty classroom, pacing back and forth.
Appearance: Crisp button-up shirt and slacks, with a commanding voice.
Personality: Articulate and confident, a natural leader.
Encounter:
The player waits until Sam is near the teacher’s desk. Grabbing a stapler, they strike her temple with it, dazing her. Before she can recover, the player uses the stapler to clamp onto her throat repeatedly. Blood seeps from the punctures as Sam chokes, falling backward over a desk.
7. Zoey ("The Photographer")
Position: Adjusting a tripod in the campus media lab.
Appearance: Petite with a camera around her neck and a keen eye for detail.
Personality: Quiet and observant, always framing the perfect shot.
Encounter:
The player sneaks up as Zoey peers into the camera’s viewfinder. A pen is jabbed into the side of her throat, and her hands fly up in shock. She gurgles as blood flows from the wound, collapsing over the tripod, dragging it and her camera down with her.
8. Tessa ("The Lab Assistant")
Position: Mixing chemicals in the science lab, focused on her experiment.
Appearance: Wearing a lab coat and goggles, her hair tied back neatly.
Personality: Analytical and methodical, taking her work seriously.
Encounter:
The player grabs a glass beaker from a nearby table and smashes it over Tessa’s head. She stumbles, disoriented, before the jagged edge of the broken glass is driven into her chest. Blood drips onto the tiled floor as Tessa gasps, her legs giving out as she collapses beside her workstation.
9. Claire ("The Party Planner")
Position: Decorating the auditorium with streamers and balloons for an upcoming event.
Appearance: Fashionable and bubbly, always in charge of social events.
Personality: Energetic and optimistic, but easily distracted.
Encounter:
As Claire stands on a ladder hanging a banner, the player yanks it out from under her. She crashes to the floor with a scream, dazed and vulnerable. A pair of scissors is driven into her chest before she can recover. She gasps, her hands weakly batting at the player before she collapses in a heap.
10. Harper ("The President")
Position: In the dean’s office, reviewing papers with an air of authority.
Appearance: Polished and professional, with an aura of command.
Personality: Calculating and ambitious, always in control.
Encounter:
The player waits until Harper is distracted by her documents. A fountain pen is driven into her throat in a swift, brutal motion. She gasps, blood spilling over her blouse as she staggers back, gripping at the pen. She collapses into the dean’s chair, lifeless, her papers soaked in crimson.
Ending Scene:
The rain continues to fall as the player steps out of the darkened campus, leaving behind the lifeless bodies and bloodstained hallways. The storm quiets, the player vanishing into the night as the final bell tolls in the distance.
