Twitch has been on the run from an evil government agency since childhood...or so he would have you believe. No one is quite sure of the details of Twitch’s background, and as far as they can tell, he’s a little foggy on them himself. The general consensus seems to be that he was born with a bizarre mental defect and only imagined all of the horrible things he says have happened to him. While running down the street in his pajamas late one night (don’t ask me!), Twitch was struck by a passing car and rescued by Hack a few hours later. He was only stunned, and upon revealing that he was musically inclined, he was asked to join the Dead Layaways.

Twitch’s life is dominated by his paranoia, which has earned him his nickname. He trusts no one, and is sometimes even convinced that the other Dead Layaways are out to get him. He is plagued by his constant fear of everyone and everything around him, and often has very vivid nightmares, which he sometimes mistakes for reality. Although not officially diagnosed, Twitch appears to have some form of schizophrenia, though the full extent of his condition is unknown. He has also been known to pass out onstage, which is probably due to his being overtired, since he doesn’t drink.

Twitch is characterized by his eternal worried expression, and is usually hunched over. Don’t sneak up behind him, because he might jump through the roof.
