Boomer is a chubby, physically inactive nerd who spends the majority of the time in his basement, escaping the horrors of his teenage years through video games and comic books. Boomer’s way out of his bullying misery is to hang out with his childhood friends—the gang of “No Names”. The only reason they let this chubby geek chill with them is because he’s got all of the latest and coolest gadgets, cameras, and editing equipment—not to mention he also lugs it around for them while they commit their random acts of bedlam. Host of his own online show where he critiques fight videos, which incidentally doesn’t have enough subscribers to be considered relevant, Boomer is a virtual encyclopedia of the underground online community. His mom coddles him excessively, giving his friends proper ammo to embarrass him. He’s got more of a conscience than the others, but is still willing to do “bad”, possibly illegal things and share in the celebrity status with the rest of his crew. |

Wiggy is a thrill-seeker born and bred in the suburbs. He is undersized for his age and a bit lanky but he can still mix it up. Although already a viral celebrity after his skateboarding stunt gone wrong was splashed all over the net, Wiggy is fuelled by the insatiable desire to redeem himself. Influenced by hip hop culture and driven by the need to get back at his bully of a brother for sabotaging his stunt, Wiggy more often than not comes across as awkward and self-conscious. This makes it hard for him to get the respect he thinks he deserves from his “homies” and his girlfriend, not to mention from the inner-city “rampnites.com” star, Kendo. Wiggy will stop at nothing to get a foot in the door of this underground online community. He also believes that he has enough pull as “leader” to get the other members to do his bidding. However, Wiggy’s plan is in way over his head and his crew end up having to come to his rescue on more than one occasion. |

Princeton is confident, tall, sporty, rich, and smart. Like Wiggy he is sort of an online celebrity…but for the right reasons. After NBA scouts saw a video of Prince dunking 20 three-pointers in a row, they offered him a scholarship and a lucrative sponsorship deal. You’d think Princeton has better things to do than wasting time and getting into trouble. Yet, as a red-blooded 16-year old male, the need to be accepted pretty much trumps the need for anything else. Princeton’s charm and cool head often sees him coming to Wiggy’s aid, and seemingly taking over as leader of the gang in the meantime, much to the dismay of Wiggy. While everyone else wears their insecurities on their sleeves, Princeton seems to be the only one who doesn’t have anything to prove. That is until some ugly secrets finally spill out into the open. |

Tiki is the loose cannon of the “No-Names”. She is salacious, hot-tempered, and definitely someone whose bad side you want to steer clear of. Wiggy and Tiki are an item but after Tiki’s recent abortion, in which Wiggy responded to with cold indifference, it seems the relationship may be on its last legs. Tiki is yet another teen that has been forced to grow up too fast due to the troubles and abuse she faces at home. She has a deep seeded hatred for her abusive father and she intends to exact revenge. Maybe even tonight if she can convince either Kendo, Wiggy or even Boomer to give him the beating of his life for the cameras. |

Belle is blonde, pretty and a heavy drinker. She seems to be the one least comfortable with the “No-Names” rampaging plans. Her attitude differentiates greatly from her friends, which can be seen in her frequently suggesting that the crew make a sex video instead of a fight one! Confused and lost, Belle hangs out with this group of miscreants in hopes of boosting her self-esteem, yet she never seems to get the attention she desperately seeks from either her best friend, Tiki or her male crush, Princeton. Throughout the day she goes through scores of prescription anti-depressants and sleeping pills. |
