Red Hood
Red Hood, sometimes referred to simply as "Red", is a character from the Black Souls series and one of its main "heroines", appearing in both Black Souls I and II as well as her own standalone games Red Hood's Woods and the rather notoriously delayed and still in-development Dead Red Hood.
As her name suggests Red Hood is based off the Little Red Riding Hood character from the eponymous fairy tale; she is a largely unfeeling woman who often travels by herself with her wolf friend Poro (who she is stated to have had sexual relations with), on occasion acting as the protagonist Grimm's ally as she plots to take down the various masterminds pulling the strings of the games' events.
Tournament History
First appearing in Queen of /v/ 2022 during Alice's Elite Eight hiatus, Red Hood has since cemented herself of one of the most consistent qualifiers of Black Souls, a series which frequently sees characters barred due to series limit restrictions. Her tournament debut was short lived, as she lost the first round to Marie from Splatoon.
Red Hood received a larger push the next year, which helped her to win her first match against Kumatora by one single vote, a reminder that your vote always matters as well as the importance of making your picks known in the threads. Though she picked up momentum by this point she still jobbed the second round to Muffet by a similarly close 20 votes margin.
Red has had her breakthrough run in Queen of /v/ 2024. Though she was initially perceived by some as the least popular of the three Black Souls girls in the bracket that year (the other two being Leaf and Alice), she would actually have the strongest showing of her series that year as she got revenge on Marie in a first round grudge match, followed by defeating the golden witch Beatrice by a mere five votes. Coincidentally The Boss, Red's round 3 opponent, also defeated her round 2 opponent by exactly five votes. As statistic likelihood might suggest, this was another extremely close match in which Red won by only six votes.
Around the start of the third round Red's campaign took a turn for the degenerate, as her memed status as a "dog shagger" was often brought up and depicted, most notoriously including both a drawing and vocaroo of Red having a sexual encounter with Courage from Courage the Cowardly Dog. The degeneracy did not stop here as her campaign shifted from Red's desire for dogs to a fetishistic transformation into "Fed Hood", a grotesque and morbidly obese fatfag version of the character bent on voring other candidates, jannies, the silent majority itself, and even a video depicting her devouring her round 4 opponent Palutena, much to the mixed reactions of disgust, shock, and amusement of anons. Despite the extremely questionable content of this OC (which was posted throughout the rest of the tournament), it actually became welcomed as one of few sources of laughs and entertainment in the round 4 and quarterfinals threads which were largely overtaken by bitterness, spite, and falseflags. Perhaps because of this, Red would be warmly if not also somewhat nauseatingly remembered after her round 4 defeat to Palutena.
