'''Deathchester''' is a group of villains lead by [[Damsel of Distress III]]. The name is an homage to the original [[Damsel of Distress]].

== ''Modus operandi'' ==
Robbers, thugs, and opportunists.

By accident or design members usually have a checkerboard color scheme with hints of blood.<ref> - [[From Within 16.4]]</ref><ref>Deathchester wore black coats, black slacks, black dress with patterned, torn hose, black boots.  Here and there, there were scarves, gloves, and armbands in checkerboard white and black.  A few gorier bits, like Sidepiece, or old bloodstains on clothing.  The checkerboard pattern was what stood out to my eye, when everything else was so muted. - [[Radiation 18.4]]</ref>

== Structure ==
It was formed of three villain groups: the remains of [[Love Lost]]'s gang, south-west side poachers, and Torso’s troupe.

* [[Damsel of Distress III]]
* [[Nailbiter]]
* [[Sidepiece]]
* [[Disjoint]]
* [[Hookline]]
* [[Trophy Wife]]
* [[Backwoods]]
* [[Torso]]

==History==
===Post-[[Time Bubble Pop]]===
Frustrated with her sister and [[Breakthrough]], Ashley moved out of her shared apartment.<ref>[[Interlude 12.x II]]</ref>

At some point after this, she formed Deathchester, and hired [[Epeios]] as a countermeasure against [[Lookout]].

===Post-[[Attack on Teacher]]===
Deathchester proved themselves a nuisance when they started raiding the caravans of evacuating citizens. This drew the attention of the [[Wardens]], who sent the [[Huntsmen]] and Breakthrough after them. In the circumstances they were able to fight off heroes.<ref>[[From Within 16.4]]</ref>

[[Breakthrough]] followed Deathchester to their hideout and offered them a deal, that would help them to establish themselves as a villain group and keep them out of heroes' way.<ref>[[From Within 16.5]]</ref>

===[[The Ice Breaks]]===
The team joined the assembly of capes with the [[Wardens]] who were being briefed about the [[Titan]] threats.

Deathchester was assigned in the same group as [[Breakthrough]], [[The Undersiders]], and [[The Major Malfunctions]], and stationed in the ruins of Mathers compound between [[Titan Eve]] and [[Titan Oberon]].<ref name="II18.2">[[Radiation 18.2]]</ref> Later, they had to fight both of the titans.<ref name="II18.4">[[Radiation 18.4]]</ref>

Later they joined the attempt to stall Oberon's and Fortuna's Titans converging on [[the Shardspace]] entry-point,<ref name="II19.1">[[Infrared 19.1]]</ref> and The Wardens' assault on [[The Simurgh]].<ref name="II20.1">[[Last 20.1]]</ref>

Four members willingly accept the [[Victoria]]'s plague, the rest abandon [[Damsel of Distress III|Damsel]], who was too conflicted to leave herself.<ref>Four members of Deathchester had agreed to make contact.  The rest had left, frustrated with Damsel’s ranting. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/03/31/last-20-10/ Excerpt] from [[Last 20.10]]</ref>
