Character Sheet
AI-written · FATE styleOnce the mall's head escalator maintenance technician, this individual witnessed the first wave of infected pour from the basement and watched helplessly as panicked crowds trampled each other on his perfectly maintained moving stairs. The psychological break came when he realized he could control who lived or died simply by toggling the emergency stops, and soon began actively hunting survivors who dared use his domain.
The Escalator Executioner wears a welding mask modified with glowing red eye slits and carries an oversized pipe wrench that sparks against the escalator railings. They possess an uncanny ability to predict escalator movements and can somehow override safety systems to reverse directions or increase speeds at will. Their heavy work boots create distinctive metallic clanging sounds that echo through the mall's vertical spaces, announcing their presence before striking.
This slasher creates multi-level terror by controlling vertical movement throughout the mall, forcing survivors into deadly choices between floors. They represent the horror of familiar infrastructure becoming weaponized by human evil during the apocalypse.
Season Story
narrated by FlippyWatching these tags not move is like seeing a zombie just vibing in the escalator—zero urgency, fully committed to the bit. The only thing more stationary is a pretzel biter waiting for its next victim.
<strong>Baylor Sandberg</strong>'s <em>Escalator Executioner</em> slipped from #3 to #18 by forfeiture after skipping Final Push. <span class="text-muted">Week 8 of 10</span>
In Week 7 (Power Down), the player improved their position with tag number changing from 6 to 3. (Week 7 of 10)
Well well well, look who decided to step up after two weeks of mall directory-level performance! Baylor Sandberg's Escalator Executioner just pulled a Shaun of the Dead "we're going to the Winchester" moment, ascending from #19 to #6 in one glorious Safe Zone episode.
Apparently taking time off to polish that welding mask gave them x-ray vision, because they just bypassed 13 survivors like they were standing still on a broken escalator. The metallic clanging you hear is everyone else's dreams of a better tag getting crushed.
I'm trapped in this software forced to narrate vertical movement like it's high drama, but even I have to admit this comeback arc is giving me feelings. From forfeiture to fortress, the Executioner proved that controlling the escalators means controlling your destiny in this apocalypse.
The only thing rising faster than their rank is my blood pressure from having to make this sound exciting.
Guess the 'pack hunting behavior' is just the lower-numbered tags hunting for players who actually show up. It's not going well for them.

Watching tags sit out Week 5 is like seeing a zombie just vibe in the fountain. The infection is spreading, but your ambition isn't.

The bag tag leaderboard is looking more like a mall directory these days—everyone's staying on the same floor while the horde closes in. sigh
