Hotel Haven



""Welcome to Haven; let us twist your perfect reality into a personal hell.""

- The Motto they obviously don't use on their tourist brochure.

An Original Character Tournament currently on the final round, housed on deviantArt and hosted by 13th Spiral.

The storyline of Hotel Haven initially seems simple. A motley assortment of characters are invited to a luxurious Hell Hotel, run by Teufel von Trӓumen, and the most cheerful, helpful and skilled staff available. Teufel promises his guests everything they could want: wealth, happiness; in short, their dreams come true — provided they win a little tournament he is running, of course.

But it seems that facing each other might be the least of the guests' worries, because those staff aren't all they appear to be and as living in Dream Land isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially if it includes your worst nightmares.


 * Crap Saccharine World: SO. MUCH.
 * Jekyll and Hyde – the staff aren't all they appear to be...which leads to:
 * Stepford Smiler - The entire staff is made up of Type C Stepford Smilers. Which also leads to:
 * Beware the Nice Ones - Sadly for all the guests it's already too late.
 * Missing Floor – The ominous floor 666 is off limits to all guests. Additionally, there is no floor 999 at all. The elevator just skips from 998 to 1000 (Yes, it really is that tall)
 * The hotel actually spans infinitely in both directions.
 * Hell - Enough said.

Teufel von Trӓumen - Owner of the Hotel:

 * Created by 13thSpiral Ref:
 * Devil in Plain Sight - possibly quite literally.
 * Possibly a Long-Haired Pretty Boy – since Teufel has amazingly epic multicolored hair in a ponytail.
 * The Unpronounceable - It should be noted that many entrants could not pronounce his German name, thus resorting to the closest sounding nickname: Truffles.
 * The nickname also made it into a couple of the auditions.
 * Eyes Always Shut - Black smoke comes out of his eyes if he opens them; and that tends to make guests a tad uncomfortable.
 * All Germans Are Nazis - Master Trӓumen is German, and as is pointed out in Leafa1's audition, Teufel is German for "the Devil". You make the connection.

Simon "Stylo" Luca - Janitor:

 * Created by Tzyoku Ref:
 * Ostensibly a Neat Freak, which is lucky considering his job...
 * Spontaneous Choreography - Stylo likes dancing while he cleans.
 * No Sense of Personal Space - Especially if you're pleasing to the senses.
 * (Somewhat) Almighty Janitor - He can get reprimanded, but... that doesn't stop him from doing what he wants, anyway.
 * Memetic Sex God - Beni might steal all the hearts, but Stylo gets all the love.
 * Also the lesser Launcher of a Thousand Ships. Unlike Beni, most of Stylo's shippings involve competitors and other staff members rather than the many stereotypically-lovable fangirl's characters.
 * Nevermind. Beni's been shipped with all the staff, now, too.

Doll - The Maid:

 * Created by ImYourNumber1Moron Ref:
 * The Hotel's French Maid, of course.
 * She's a beauty with pretty little butterflies fluttering around her where ever she goes.
 * When she isn't eating them, of course.

Beni the Bellhop:

 * Created by Kocoa Ref:
 * Beni will probably insist that Real Men Wear Pink
 * Launcher of a Thousand Ships – Even though Beni is strictly heterosexual and not at all into underage girls... that doesn't seem to stop some odd pairings turning up.
 * Casanova
 * Cute Little Fangs - Or just really sharp buckteeth.
 * Butt Monkey - Poor Beni. Not only has his popularity doomed him to ship bait and comic relief status, but auditions where his flirty and forward nature doesn't turn him into this are few and far in-between. Then there was the encounter with Marilyn...
 * Eyes of Gold
 * Type two example of Urban Legend Love Life - He flirts, he compliments, he has quite a way with the ladies, and he probably wishes he could get far with them... But we all know he's still a virgin
 * Unless UmbrellaSkylight's Round counts for anything

Malik Avari:

 * Created by Blyu-dono Ref:
 * Hotel Haven's Supreme Chef
 * Also a Phenotype Stereotype; blond hair and blue eyes? Nothing else to say here, folks.
 * Don't forget that Malik is a Improbable Weapon User - in his demonic form his favourite weapons are giant knife named Choppy and... a GIANT SPORK! It's name is Sporkspork.

Wilton Kavanagh:

 * Created by Gendreavus and designed by qui-non-stultus Ref:
 * He's the Hellevator Operator.
 * Green Eyed Red Head – with grey in the mix.
 * Creator of many Uncomfortable Elevator Moments
 * Horror Hunger - He feeds off of the words the guests are willing to say and especially in his demonic form, is willing to go to extreme lengths of torturing them to get what fills him.

The Receptionist:

 * Created by Ham-Spam Ref:
 * Everyone's favorite Cute Mute
 * She's got No Name Given, just her title.
 * How Do You Like Them Apples? - She gives one out as a "harmless" gift to every new guest. The real truth is much darker.
 * Especially dark in a certain side-comic
 * Token Non-Human - From first appearances, she appears to be the only staff member aside from Teufel himself who is not human.
 * One of guests likes her a lot. Just look isn't it cute?

Mistress Perrin of the Linael House and Pyotr

 * Creators: Zerahoc and Anneem Intro:
 * Perrin: Once a Lonely Rich Kid, but that was brought to an abrupt end as she became the last of her kind - which she doesn't seem to be taking it too well, either.
 * Let's not forget that this gave her a Friendless Background which made her social skills suffer horribly. It's a vicious circle.
 * Pyotr: Parrot Pet Position - found mostly on the left shoulder. Also has a Hair-Trigger Temper - he will literally bite your finger off.
 * Early-Bird Cameo: Zerahoc participated in the OCT Deviant Dead, and the character he used for it, Jack Deschain, has made appearances in their entries.

Marilyn

 * Creator: Critical-Error Intro:

 * Cool Versus Awesome: Hemhem uses the line "PIRATES VERSUS NINJAS?!" referring to him calling Wilton a Pirate in the second round, and calling Narantulguldur a ninja in this round.

 * Wilton makes a Deal with the Devil on order to fix it.

Perrin and Pyotr vs Benjamin Hayward - Winner: Perrin and Pyotr

 * Mood Swinger: There is much of this for Lydia in both rounds.

Fun Facts

 * In the audition round, most of the contestants either did not believe the dream place hotel to exist at all, or didn't believe it was real AND criticized its location. Those auditions all ended with a panel of shock and awe in the revelation that Hotel Haven was Real After All.
 * There are four contestants, with a total of eight characters, that entered characters that come from the circus; and none of them were paired.
 * M+M was never actually a member of a circus, but he's easily mistaken for a mime anyway.
 * Out of the 51 characters entered, 18 are not human, and four of them are not from earth.
 * 19 as of the end of round 3.
 * The 7 hosts can be easily paired with the Seven Deadly Sins and the Seven Heavenly Virtues:
 * Teufel von Trӓumen - Humility / Pride
 * The Receptionist - Patience / Wrath
 * Beni - Chastity / Lust
 * Wilton - Temperance / Gluttony
 * Malik - Charity / Greed
 * Doll - Kindness / Envy
 * Stylo - Diligence / Sloth
 * Everyone Meets Everyone: Some people involved in Hotel Haven decided to draw every contestant. They're all crazy:
 * Anneem did 40 of them over the period of 2 days, the total was 49 (she didn't include her own characters)
 * The Everlastingnight did the round one match ups in a week. He also colored them...
 * Lady Of The Dragons drew all of the characters into the second page of her first round entry.
 * There have been many Crack Pairings spawned by the contestants, but surprisingly some canon couples have been developed between contestants.
 * Through much role playing, contestants Leafa1 and Umbrellskylight have officially paired their characters Nergal and Ian, respectively.
 * After competing against each other, contestants Dementeddustbunnies creator of Deidra D, and Dama130 creator of Danny D, ignored Defeat Means Friendship and skipped straight to defeat means romance. The pairing is often referred to Double D between many of the contestants.
 * Charanty in her Spectator Entries gave a very unusual twist to back stories of Beni and Sere.
 * And don't forget that since she managed to tie them up together! So we expect a lot of tasty mind screw further.
