[From [itch.io](https://csr.itch.io/tints-of-black)] ## Characters ### Shay Held back a grade, a foster child, goth, intersex/transgender, and a main target of bullying, Shay deals with a lot of depression and struggles in her daily life. It is apparent that she most likely has a dissociative disorder as she can’t see the faces or details of people she has no attachment to or interest in. Shay’s true default is that of kindness or self-harm and not that of violence or hatred. She is incredibly sassy. - **Gender:** Female - **Measurements:** Height: 173cm - **Personality:** Transgender - **Eyes:** Brown - **Engages in:** Suicide, Murder, Mass Murder - **Clothes:** Gothic - **Role:** High School Student, Greek - **Hair:** Dyed - **Body:** Intersex ### Clyde Abel Attaway From a very religious family, he was seen as the perfect son by his abusive and alcoholic father. He’s usually a gentle giant and teddy bear for the most. He murdered his father in self-defense for his little brother. Despite his kindness, Clyde has been a willing participant in murder and with disposing of bodies. He fell madly in love with Shay, but he is content with just her presence, never wanting to make her uncomfortable or forced. - **Gender:** Male - **Measurements:** Height: 198cm - **Hair:** Blond, Short, Shaggy - **Body:** Young-adult, Muscular, Giant, Makeup - **Clothes:** Jacket, Scarf, Shirt - **Role:** Son, Full Brother, Older Brother, Serial Killer - **Engages in:** Murder, Patricide - **Personality:** Kind, Religious - **Eyes:** Teal ### Ayden Thomas Langston Your typical gawky little nerd, but he was desperate to break from his position and was willing to take others down with him. However, he’s still that boy that you’d either pay or threaten to do your homework. A photographer that uses his art for malicious intent, especially at the command of Molly, who he has a major crush on and almost hopes to climb the social ladder through her. - **Gender:** Male - **Measurements:** Height: 173cm - **Hair:** Brown - **Eyes:** Blue - **Engages in:** Bullying - **Subject of:** Bullying, Homicide - **Role:** High School Student ### Charles Beau Attaway Acts almost like a stereotypical redneck, but is also very techie and secretly into anime. Shay describes him as having “Resting pissy face." He has nearly no filter and uses a lot of derogatory terms. Despite his foul mouth, he loves his big brother more than anything. He has a bad heroin addiction problem. Growth was stunted from physical abuse by his father as well as from his own substance abuse. - **Gender:** Male - **Aliases:** Chuckie, Chuck, Charlie, Chuckles - **Measurements:** Height: 163cm - **Eyes:** Green - **Items:** Shotgun, Chainsaw - **Engages in:** Drug Abuse, Murder - **Body:** Freckles - **Role:** Younger Brother, Serial Killer - **Hair:** Orange ### Davis Angel Emerson Probably the most grounded and mature of the family. Also very lighthearted and sweet, with a very calm demeanor and low temper. He's the most scholarly and has low interest in the actual act of murder and is more interested in cannibalism (which he laments but allows Easton to feed). He's also currently a nurse and used to work at a morgue. Despite being older, he still looks at Clyde as an older brother. - **Gender:** Male - **Measurements:** Height: 185cm - **Hair:** Black - **Eyes:** Brown - **Role:** Nurse, Older Brother, Half-brother, Serial Killer, African - **Engages in:** Murder, Cannibalism ### Easton Hunter Crocker Grew up in a relatively traditional family aside from the existence of his bastard half-brother. He never had a close bond with either of his parents as they were both bigots and he discovered rather young that he was homosexual. He usually is rather calm but is still a sadistic killer. He has a very close bond to his brother, Davis, despite them not being allowed to hang out as children. - **Gender:** Male - **Measurements:** Height: 174cm - **Engages in:** Murder - **Role:** Homosexual, Younger Brother, Half-brother, Serial Killer ### Elijah Connor Snyder A womanizer and drinker, he likes to go to the bar after a long day. He likes to keep up the dark and mysterious image. Despite his “no fucks given” attitude, he is actually a hard worker. He can be rather short tempered and quick to fight. He acts as a mentor to Chuckles and pretty much helped him get into being a serial killer and rapist. - **Gender:** Male - **Measurements:** Height: 175cm - **Hair:** Black - **Eyes:** Grey - **Engages in:** Murder - **Role:** Serial Killer ### Jane Madelyn Rotton Homecoming and prom queen for and leader of the cheer squad; your perfect example of a Heather or Mean Girl. There doesn’t seem to be a reason that she initially started picking on Shay aside from it being “the way things go.” She is dating the school Quarter Back, Josiah and is best friends with Maya. She can be very vicious with her bullying and has turned the entire cheer squad against Shay. - **Gender:** Female - **Measurements:** Height: 167cm - **Hair:** Blond - **Eyes:** Blue - **Engages in:** Bullying - **Role:** Cheerleader, High School Student - **Subject of:** Homicide ### Josiah Grayson Tucker Your stereotypical jock and a bit of a meathead.

This includes cyber bullying. - **Gender:** Female - **Measurements:** Height: 162cm - **Hair:** Brown - **Eyes:** Grey - **Engages in:** Bullying - **Subject of:** Homicide ### Molly Caroline Deats Dumb blonde cheerleader type and comes off as super cute and sweet and like the biggest airhead you know, but it’s really all an act. She uses Ayden for whatever she wants, and has a reputation with the boys. She mainly bullies Shay to keep up her reputation. He main mode of terror is cyber bullying and stalking with Ayden. She used to be chubby and unpopular before high school and is scared of being bullied again. - **Gender:** Female - **Measurements:** Height: 160cm - **Hair:** Blond - **Eyes:** Brown - **Engages in:** Bullying - **Subject of:** Bullying - **Role:** Cheerleader, High School Student ## Shops - [Itch](https://csr.itch.io/tints-of-black) ## Releases ### English - **2019-04-06**: Tints of Black - Early Access - [Itch.io](https://csr.itch.io/tints-of-black-ea) - **2019-04-20**: Tints of Black - [Itch.io](https://csr.itch.io/tints-of-black) - **2019-10-13**: Tints of Black - [Itch.io](https://csr.itch.io/tints-of-black), [Game Jolt](https://gamejolt.com/games/vn/406691) ## Tags ADV, Female Protagonist, Bullying, High School Student Protagonist, Kidnapping, Colored Texts, Black and White, NaNoRenO, Transgender Protagonist ## More Games from C.S.R. - [The Devil's Alleyway](https://pinovel.net/v17906) - [Blur Asylum: The Heart's Wishes](https://pinovel.net/v19731) - [The Illness Called Love 1.0 The Royal Rebels](https://pinovel.net/v25689) - [Tints of Black](https://pinovel.net/v25665) --- *View the full details at [pinovel.net/v25665](https://pinovel.net/v25665).* ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoGame","@id":"https://pinovel.net/v25665#game","name":"Tints of Black","description":"Shay Foster just tries to get by in high school in a small town in Texas, but it's easy to be a target to bullying when she sticks out as a goth.
