Lori Meyers (Present Day)

Lori Meyers

Lori is an anthropomorphic mouse with grayish-blue fur and dark blue eyes. She wears a maroon hooded jacket with a light green T-shirt underneath, the latter having an insignia of an upside-down triangle within a circle. Lori also wears black shoes and blue jeans with knee patches and cuffs.

Lori isn't exactly the most talkative type in Possum Springs, mostly keeping to herself and preferring to be alone. When spoken to, her dialogue often comes off as awkward and stilted, sometimes overstepping her boundaries and stuttering. During her talks, Lori often gets flustered or nervous, causing her to excessively hyperventilate if it gets bad enough. Combined with her lack of communication skills, Lori seems to have a low self-esteem regarding both her appearance and her hobbies, calling herself gross and shutting down her ideas and concepts. Lori seems to have very little respect for rules and authority, having committed vandalism in the past and pirating some movie software in case she wants to make a film someday. That being said, she does seem aware that the state of the town is not exactly great, and she wants to try and get someone to notice.

Lori is fascinated with horror. She likes to spend her moments watching horror movies, equates things in her life to horror , and she wants to make a horror film when she grows up. Lori seems to struggle with intrusive thoughts.

Lori is a somewhat socially awkward and morbid, with a passion for horror movies, especially in the realms of filmmaking. Rather than attend Harfest, Lori will instead choose to watch horror films by herself. Her interest into the macabre sometimes even stretches into personal fascination, as Lori often has weird thoughts about murder or may seek out morbid videos.

She also has low self-esteem, believing herself to be "objectively gross,"

Lori tried smoking when she was twelve. She did it once and never again.

Not only has she seen a great deal of horror movies, Lori wishes to go to horror movie school and eventually write and direct a horror film in the future. Already possessing some knowledge on horror movie special effects, Lori sometimes draws her own design ideas about special effects makeup or horror movie villains.

When she's excited at night, she may even lay and sleep in between railroad tracks or think about sleeping in the woods or in a basement of an abandoned house. Lori also enjoys going to the railroad tracks and squishing metal dudes by train on the rails.

Lori now stresses about rent and works at her local movie theater. She lives alone in her messy apartment and uses her employee discount to go see movies whenever she can. She is currently taking online classes to become a film maker and between that, her car, and her apartment she struggles to make end meet. To destress she's often take walks through the woods and visit her favorite spot on the railroad tracks.
