Kill Count: 7 (plus 1 indirect)
Apr. 23rd, 2009 10:58 amInspired by the serious poll, where I embarrassingly forgot one of Rorschach's confirmed kills. Also, even though Rorschach doesn't have anywhere near the highest kill count in camp, I think it's good to have a reminder that he's killed a lot of people for a civilian in a realistic-type setting -- and it's generally not pretty.
- One "villain" who was really just a delusional, masochistic stalker who followed costumed heroes around, asking them to "punish" him. He tried this on Rorschach. Rorschach threw him down an elevator shaft.
- Two criminals, after the passage of the Keene Act. There aren't any details except that their bodies were found with Rorschach's note. I'm assuming that they were just beaten to death.
- Chained one man inside of a building and then set the building on fire.
- Burned one man to death by throwing a large vat of boiling cooking fat on him. (Technically, this was self-defense. But for one thing, it was pretty damn horrible and he probably could have used less lethal means. For another thing, it's not as though he feels bad about it. At all. Would leave screaming in agony again.)
- INDIRECT (didn't count in poll): set one man up to be killed by his cohorts.
- Electrocuted one man who entered his prison cell.
- Killed one man in bathroom; method unknown. He was, uh. A little man. So I'm going with drowning him in a toilet.
