So I need a little bit of help.

I'm revealing another contestant purely because I need help with their name.

I'm planning on making a trio themed around RPGMaker as was hinted at by Spooky's source list.

Only problem is I don't know what to call them.

I'm also mixed on who to include.

Original idea was Madosuki from Yume Nikki, Mary from Ib and either Aya Drevis from Mad Father or Viola from The Witch's House and they would represent RPGMaker horror.

However I decided that was a bit too simliar to Spooky's main schtick of indie horror titles so I instead expanded them to have all RPGMaker titles and instead changed the lineup to Madotsuki, The Batter from OFF, and Brad Armstrong from LISA. Niko from OneShot was also considered, so that both more modern RPGMaker titles and multiple incarnations of the engine were repped. (RPG Maker 2003 by Mado, RPGMaker VX Ace by Brad and modern RPGMaker by Niko) However due to lack of knowledge about OneShot due to avoiding it since I eventually intend on playing it at some point in the future when I actually am able to upload YouTube videos and thus don't want to be spoiled I don't know much about Niko's demaneor or if they speak at all. They seem too, but I can't tell memes or shitposts from canon and going to it's wiki is cautious due to wanting to avoid spoilers.

Thus Batter was put in instead due to me having a lot more familiarity with OFF (despite spoilers) than with OneShot, and overall knowing his character, personality and speech style more, but if Niko can be worked in somehow, that would be great. (since with both batter AND mado RPGMaker 2003 is represented twice over)

Let me know your opinions! Aya and Mary were actually handpicked specifically for the original idea since they all offer interesting vs. lines and are characters I feel like I would enjoy writing more than Brad since 1. He's kinda somber and doesn't talk much, 2. The LISA series is hella depressing and 3. I haven't watched The Joyful yet and haven't finished watching a guy I follow's Painful playthrough either, although I already know what happens due to TVTropes abnd comments on OST videos.

The all-girls horror trio would just have horror titles, but keep in mind that's still a very broad source for RPGMaker, plus Yume Nikki-inspired games or fangames. The other trio would have any and all games created in RPGMaker as well as not only Yume Nikki fangames, but OFF and LISA fangames as well, even if they were cancelled or are unfinished. (Which the LISA fandom is pretty infamous for, the music is worth it though)
