Chadwick Avellone

Chadwick "Chad" Avellone is the operational manager of "The Doghouse", a secretive underground laboratory funded by all the countries of the world to contain and experiment on an assortment of supernatural creatures and characters.

Chad was once married, although his wife was killed when Chad accidentally drunkenly ran her over in a car. It is later implied that Chad may have been under the influence of Deadite possession, or that she herself may have been possessed and forced to walk in front of his approaching car. Whatever the cause of the accident, it severely depressed Chad. His wife's death was covered up by the government.

When The Doghouse is invaded by Randall Flagg, who lets out all of The Doghouse's inmates, Chad barricades himself in his office. He is soon attacked by a Predator who just before killing him decides to spare Chad, not considering him worthy enough of a hunt. Shortly afterwards, Chad is nursed back to health by security officers Monaco and Dandy and the scientist Dr. Kim Mai Ling. After meeting up with Daniel Torrance, Chad witnesses Kim's death at the hands of Victor Crowley and Jason Voorhees, two supernaturally powered serial killers.

Trivial Information

 * Chad is physically based on the game designer Todd Howard. His surname is also a reference to Chris Avellone, who, much like Todd, designs and writes video games.


 * Throughout the roleplay, Chad regularly says "I wasn't even supposed to be here today!" since it was his day off. This is a reference to Dante from the film Clerks.
