Jacob Oliver Benson is an eighteen year-old psychology major at a small private college in north Georgia.  He created the vlog "Hear Me Out" to vent his frustration with shcool and to chronicle his struggle with depression.  He is introspective and quite-natured most of the time, and has only a few close friends and a relatively inactive social life.  As he is plunged into the mysterious world of the Slender Man mythos, however, his personality begins to change even more drastically....

Anvil, known only by his screen name, is renowned Slender-fighter and creator of the vlog "Project Anvil."  He is loud, obnoxious, owns a huge arsenal of blades and firearms, and is fueled by a murderous hatred for his phantasmal adversary.  Despite his boisterous nature, he is actually highly intelligent, and has been working for years on a complex plan to permanently destroy the Slender Man.  However, his obsession with his task seems to be slowly taking its toll on Anvil's psyche....
W is a mysterious figure who runs a vlog entitled "Staying Alive."  He is a "runner" - that is, he spends his days trying to escape the ever-present menace of the Slender Man.  Highly respected among other Slender-bloggers, he created a system of rules to help other runners stay one step ahead of their spectral stalker.  Though he has no home or family, he is a cool and collected individual.  He strongly discourages trying to fight the Slender Man, dismissing such efforts as futile.
Half-Light is a dangerous Slender-proxy, an agent of the Slender Man himself.  Intelligent and sadistic, Half-Light makes it his mission in life to frighten and demoralize the Slender-bloggers.  A feared enemy of the Slender-fighters, Half-Light has even defeated Anvil himself in battle on at least one occasion.  He's not entirely heartless, though - traditionally, he offers the bloggers an "easy way out" of their struggle, but it comes at a rather terrible price....
Dark and mysterious, the Slender Man is a true unknown.  Many bloggers believe that he or it originated from some dark alternate universe, but no one knows for certain.  Even his goals and motives seem beyond human understanding.  He stalks and bedevils innocents, driving them to madness and paranoia, all the while causing them pain and slowly destroying their lives.  The extent of his power is unknown, but many believe that the more you think about him, the more likely he is to appear to you....
