Deirdre
Vin is an angry and jaded wrestler who receives his alert from Death-Cast on the same day as Mateo and Rufus. He doesn’t think it should be a surprise—he recently received a multiple sclerosis diagnosis—but he’s angry about it anyway. Vin spends his morning trying to hook up with women on the Necro app and regretting his failures. Though Vin feels like he found himself in the wrestling ring, he also believes that he was destined for wrestling greatness and never got there. Because of this, he decides that he’s going to carry out a suicide bombing at his gym and take as many people with him as possible. Mateo, Rufus, and Delilah are injured in the explosion, but none of them die.
