The second time i played the quarry, i got the “white wolf” achievement (i think that’s an achievement… if not, you probably know what ending i’m talking about).
And when they first started driving to the freak show ruins, i thought to myself “wouldn’t it be so sad if it turns out that silas has just been living there all along because he has nowhere and no-one else left after the fire”
Turns out, yes. That was so sad. i cried
Did i still kill him though? Yes. I was also scared.

1980s Eliza Vorez
When I started working on my Harum Scarum era Megan au and general using of the quarry as spare parts this is one of the first things I started working on and have been on and off since so basically knocking a good forty ish years off her and turning her into this 80s mother gothel looking fortune teller and somewhat of a mother figure to Megan in the two timelines where she joins the sideshow but more so in the pyromegan au(also Curie is chilling in her hair lol)
Original and more undercut
So I originally took this picture off my TV with my phone and as you can see I did a lot of work such as: reconstructing one of her eyes, toning down the shadows on the necklace, altering the creases on the dress, reshaping her eyebrows/nose/lips(I wasn't too concerned about keeping inline with the actress so much as the de-aging itself), smoothing her out, a hell of a lot of light and shadow and that's even before getting to the hair which should probably show why this took over a month(and a lot of colour dropping lol)
Also the only nudge I needed to go all in on the big 80s hair is that one canon child's drawing from the game
I'll probably design her a new outfit for the era because I'm certainly going to draw her for my related 1980s AUs but I had to get this out first, probably could have worked on it and obsessed over it for much much longer but here it is
@kassiekolchek22 @delurkr @tatjana-fantasy @unhingedlesbear @kagoa @qusok @ctrvpani @tinynightmarewoman @taylorshope @kindheartedgummybears @ivycross @mybrainrotforreal (I'm going to tag this in other smg tags because I'll likely treat this as as a hub for cross game stuff)

I think I got blocked so I will now talk about Silas and post in his tag and you all have to suffer... or you like what I'm going to write.
The white wolf really is such a mysterie which is a pity. Whe know literally nothing but his name and what he kind of looks like.
All we know about him are from very untrustworthy sources.
One is Travis who is telling us what Kaylee told him.
Travis assumes that Eliza is not Silas' real mother. But we don't know that. Eliza looks really old so how likely is it? Well, it can still be true that Eliza is indeed Silas mother since the game is taking place in a world where werewolves, witches and ghosts are real.
But all of this just raises more question and we get literally no answers.
Like how old was/is Silas?
Travis says Kaylee wanted to help the child. this means that Silas was in his human form, right? And Travis also says that even six years later there are sightings of a feral albino child along the coast.
Of course if Silas was something like 6 years old when Harum Scarum got destroyed, he could be 12 when he was finally "caught".
That again raises the question if no one ever tried to find him and bring him inside? A naked child in the woods that was seen multiple times?
Anyway let us look at the poster on the cage:
compared to the new flyer, we find all the time, the one from six years ago:
In the first one Eliza looks a lot younger. Of course that could have been the artist of the poster deciding to just pretty her up. But if you look at the design, the first ones looks older... like it could be from decades ago.
But Silas was already a part of the show then. So... how old is Silas really? Is he Elizas son? She sure seems to think so.
"Mommy is coming Silas!"
(Sorry the screenshots I have are bad)
Eliza sees Silas as her son. Why did she put him in a cage? Maybe it wasn't as bad as Kaylee thought it was? It might have been good enough that people thought it is just an act? The cage itself is rather big... Maybe peope thought the feral thing was also just an act?
That would be what I might assume... children who grow up in a circus often help out with the acts.
Either way, Eliza loved Silas enought to stay in the real world as a ghost and to try to kill off a whole family to protect him (and maybe bring him snacks/campers into the woods, who knows).
Anyway talking about age, another thing is that both Kaylee and Caleb are (if we believe the family tree) 21 22 (*1999) and 26 (*1995)
Not exactly teenagers, even though Chris titles them as such. The developers are just not exact with the ages and all characters are unreliable narrators.
Also Caleb was 20 when he started the fire to help his 15 16 year old sister to free a child. Instead of asking their cop-uncle to help?
All of this just seems weird. Caleb should have known better. He was already an adult who grew up in the woods and at camp. He should know about the dangers of fire.
Even if they were both only 10 years old they should have known better...
Another thing is that we have to assume is, that Silas was in his human form when he got "rescued". And still he bit Caleb. He is multiple times described as feral (again by Travis who is not a reliable source) but it might still be true.
The fact alone that Silas bit Caleb while probably being human is an indicator for Silas actually being feral. That raises the question of why was Silas like that? Was he like that from the beginning? Or was he just not raised adequately? OR if he really is older than he looks did he become more feral with time?
All of those are valid options.
Another thing that always strikes me as weird is Kaylees letter. The first time I heard it, it sounded like she is not sorry about what happened. It sounds like she is only sorry about how it turned out.
Though, many people died she does not sound like she feels any regret... maybe werewolves really become more feral with time?
Gammy,
How long we gonna drag this shit out? I know family is the most important thing, but I wanna know what's outside the forest, outside this damn house and camp, and I sure as hell know that ain't about to happen 'cos of who we are. Maybe we can explain what's goin' on. Fuckin' show people. Then they'll know we got no control over it. I know you just tryin' to protect us, but one day you won't be here no more and right now it feels like we stuck in a dark hole. I can't sleep Gammy. Or if I do I dream about that fuckin' fire. We were just dumbass kids back then. I wish it never happened.
Love, K xoxo
Also Kaylee writes that they were just dumbass kids, which might be true for her but not for her brother (again, 15 16 and 20).
BUT THEN we have this photo:
We don't know when it was made but it could be from six years ago? But Caleb does not look 5 4 years older than Kaylee... all of this is just one big mysterie.
Anyway I wish we would have learned more about Silas because the things we do learn are not really anything to go with... all we can do is take those and put our own preferred headcanons around them.

When I first heard about the Hacketters' last names I was surprised cause the characters scream American clichés but their last name really don't sound American. Now many people have discovered some last names have a meaning in other languages that kinda fit the characters so I figured I would list all the meanings (feel free to correct me if I get one wrong):
(Abigail) Blyg: "shy" in Swedish
(Kaitlyn) Ka : "map" in Chinese (as in she leads others?)
(Ryan) Erzahler : "narrator" or "storyteller" in German (Erzähler)
(Dylan) Lenivy : "lazy" in Czech
(Nick) Furcillo : "support"/"to act as a support" in Latin (or "fork" in Romanian but I doubt it's what they had in mind)
(Laura) Kearney : "warlike" in Gaelic
(Jacob) Custos : "guard" or "keeper" in Greek
(Emma) Mountebank : "charlatan" or someone who pretends to be who they are not in English
(Max) Brinly : only found "burnt meadow/wood" in English but I'm probably missing something
(Eliza and Silas) Vorez : pretty sure it comes from the Latin word "vorax" which is basically "voracious"
As for the Hacketts they probably just have a generic name
