YMMV / The Makings of Team CRME

• Complete Monster:
  • My Name Is Cinder: Brigit Stark is Cinder Fall's mother, who married Cinder's rich and depressed father Anthony to take his wealth for herself, withholding therapy from her husband and attempting to get rid of all of their children when each was newborn in the process, all to claim the full inheritance. When a 6-year-old Cinder accidentally learns about Brigit's true colours, Brigit finds and nearly strangles her to death. Growing impatient, Brigit reveals her intentions to her husband, driving him to suicide. Physically and mentally abusing Cinder, trying to tempt her to suicide as well and turning her siblings against her, Brigit eventually fatally poisons Sterling to keep her money. A thoroughly empty, hedonistic, and irredeemable monster beneath the façade of a beautiful and dutiful wife and mother, Brigit left psychological scars in Cinder long after her death, molding her into the monster she'd become.
  • The Black Hearts: Marcus Black was a soldier who chose the job for his love of killing. After being discharged for an assault on Vacuo, Marcus becomes an assassin for hire. He forces his son Mercury into the trade, putting him through brutal training and forcing him to kill people, also mistreating his wife Melanie. During a kill mission, Mercury notices the man has a child with him, and Marcus demands Mercury kill her. Marcus charges extra to torture the victims to death, like the way he laughingly recalls the death of Azura Michaels to her son Cobalt, who snaps and stabs his father Jaylin to death since the latter hired Marcus for the job. After Melanie leaves him, a fed-up Mercury tells Marcus how much he hates him, and Marcus attacks Mercury, planning to kill him "free of charge".
