FAILHORROR — BIBLIA DEL SOBREVIVIENTE v1.0 NOMBRE: MARTA MENDOZA EDAD: 67 OCUPACIÓN: Costurera jubilada CIUDAD: Santa Vela, norte de México ESTADO: Propuesta narrativa, pendiente de aprobación de canon.
HISTORIA PERSONAL Y BIOGRAFÍA Creció entre siete hermanos y ahora administra una casa multigeneracional. Resuelve conflictos con paciencia, limpieza y límites. Su rutina se cruza con amenazas sobrenaturales sin que pierda su propia lógica ni motivación. No existe solo para recibir sustos; posee familia, trabajo y problemas reconocibles.
PERSONALIDAD Y VOZ Serena, firme, humor seco; trata demonios como invitados maleducados. Habla como residente real de Santa Vela, con modismos situacionales pero sin exagerar el acento. Su humanidad es el contrapunto del horror y evita convertir la historia en caricatura.
MIEDO, HERIDA Y NECESIDAD INTERIOR Protege especialmente a sus nietos.
OBJETIVO EXTERNO Cumplir su responsabilidad del día y proteger sus vínculos. Cuando aparece el peligro, debe decidir entre actuar por su cuenta, pedir ayuda o seguir una solución práctica. Puede equivocarse sin perder inteligencia.
APARIENCIA, SILUETA Y UTILERÍA Rebozo mostaza, sandalias, caja de costura y escoba. Diseñar rostro, vestuario y accesorios originales, reproducibles y fáciles de mantener consistentes en generación de video. Tener vista frontal, perfil, espalda y tres expresiones de actuación.
RELACIONES Y AMENAZAS COMPATIBLES Chuy, Anabela y Patricia. Conectar orgánicamente con otros humanos del barrio; relación coral, no cada episodio necesita un héroe nuevo.
GAG FUNDACIONAL Un muñeco se levanta; Marta le manda quitarse los zapatos antes del sofá. El remate surge de una reacción cotidiana convincente, no de burlarse del miedo.
ARCO DE TEMPORADA Matriarca de episodios domésticos. Evoluciona de la incredulidad a comprender que Santa Vela sí tiene un patrón extraño, conservando humor y dignidad.
REGLAS DE SUPERVIVENCIA Y DESTINO Estado predeterminado: sobrevive al debut. Ninguna muerte permanente o conversión a antagonista será canon sin aprobación editorial. Permitidos sustos, errores, heridas sugeridas fuera de cámara, ausencias y falsas alarmas. En historias de peligro real se prioriza el cuidado de terceros.
PRIMERA ESCENA PROPUESTA Plano nocturno de Santa Vela; un muñeco se levanta; Marta le manda quitarse los zapatos antes del sofá.. Cierre en silencio incómodo de 1–2 segundos. Formato 9:16, 15–30 segundos totales.
PENDIENTES Aprobar nombre, apariencia, casting o rostro sintético, relaciones cruzadas, ficha de continuidad, paleta de vestuario, líneas de diálogo, prueba de 5 segundos y plan de estreno.
