2025 Killer Tournament

Slater was recruited for a last man standing tournament of killers. He was recruited by a wealthy family from Maryland, one of 13 families representing one of the original 13 colonies. The winning family gets to secretly control the country for the next five years, until the next tournament. He was assigned the weapon type, "Explosives."

He was immediately attracted to Layla Blaze, the killer assigned the weapon type, "Fire." They bonded over their similar weapons, even sharing weapons with each other. The two planned on setting fire to a local rock concert, but they were outwitted by the sprinkler system. At the same time, Slater made a move on Layla and kissed her. However, she already said she doesn't like to be touched so she pushed him over a railing and into a trap set by Recluse ("Rope" killer). He was cut into many pieces.
