Kewl

Archetype: Human Trid Producer

Kewl is an airhead artist who produces music trideos and she always insists that they be shot in dangerous and remote locations. If Kewl directs your video odds are at least minor career success will follow, although sometimes post humorously. In other words, two out of three bands or singers don't make it back from a shoot with all of their members. Still many desperate and down and out bands are willing to take the risk involved to save or start their careers.

Lewie

Archetype: Troll Cameraperson

Lewie has a personality which is generally warm and friendly, unless any of his camera equipment malfunctions, in which case he turns into a torrent of rage, being personally responsible for the "unexplained" destruction of some fifteen Sony HB500 portacams. He can usually get away with this, though because, above all, he's a damn good camera man.

Slammer

Archetype: Dwarf Cameraperson

Slammer is extremely overweight to the point that he is as wide as he is tall, making him the ideal person to establish a stationary shot, but not much else. He's constantly pissed at something and shouts at anything he encounters be it the director, the talent, other crew people, rocks, deer, etc. In addition he constantly bashes Lewie's camera ability, once catching Lewie in the middle of one of his anger phases, and thus getting himself rolled down a hill. Not that this deterred him from making future remarks.

Dump

Archetype: Ork Crew Member

Being a simple crew member is an extremely dangerous job and therefore pays very well. All crew members must follow Kewl's orders, no matter how insane. ("I, like, need that remote cam IN the volcano.") They usually only last a few months before they're either killed or they quit.

Dump has been with the crew for about a year now and keeps trying to find a job somewhere else, but has an unfortunate body odor problem which keeps everybody from hiring him. He's very down about this and has turned to drinking and the occasional BTL.

Lit

Archetype: Human Crew Member

A rookie of only a few weeks Lit took the job because she is absolutely obsessed with Kewl, constantly making advances and constantly getting dissed. She's peppy to the point of annoyance and the rest of the crew is always playing infantile pranks on her in an attempt to get her to leave. Even Kewl is on the verge of firing her.

Screamer

Archetype: Human Rigger

Screamer has been Kewl's rigger since the beginning and, even through he is more than qualified to be a combat rigger and receive more pay, he sticks around because of all the neato toys Kewl gives him to drive. The vehicle used, usually rented, depends on the location of the particular shoot. Within a day it is usually filled with candy wrappings due to Screamer's addiction to sweets which also keeps him on a constant sugar high that keeps him up for all but two hours a night.
