Background[edit]

The toy line was officially announced at the International Toy Fair in New York in February 2001. Barker said the following about creating his first toy line:

People want to see the monsters. We supply the monsters...These are the first toys I've had on the market. I've had model kits and whatnot, but this is a very different order of creation. These are technically amazing and the sheer level of detail is extraordinary. These figures represent the creature that both obsesses you and repulses you simultaneously. These are figures you put in a dark place in your house, probably with some votive candles, to haunt a corner in your home. We've really had fun pushing the envelope.[1]

Each of the figures included a chapter of the 32-page novelette, written by Barker.

Tortured Souls 2[edit]

Due to the success of the idea, a second series titled Tortured Souls 2: The Fallen was released the following year. The appearance of the new figures was more visceral than the first toy line, with less reliance on the bondage-like clothing styles of the first series and more reliance on surgical alteration and mutilation or, as Clive Barker described it, 'the use of flesh as canvas.' Additionally, characters of Tortured Souls 2: The Fallen neither appeared in the original novella nor came with any additional story writing.

Characters[edit]

Tortured Souls[edit]

  • Agonistes - A demon created by God on the seventh day of creation after Adam and Eve. Agonistes is an artist who uses flesh as his canvas to transform Supplicants into monstrous beings. He frequently occupies 'burning places' such as deserts or desolate cities where citizens may pray to him. From what little was revealed of Agonistes' background, he once performed his artistry on Judas Iscariot after his betrayal of Christ. However, the tortured man begged and cried so that Agonistes hung him from a tree. This was the only time the demon showed mercy to a Supplicant.
  • Lucidique - The daughter of a Primordium Senator who had openly criticized the city's degenerate ruling class and was promptly assassinated by Zarles Kreiger. After luring Kreiger to the desert to be converted by Agonistes, Lucidique was kidnapped and murdered by mob boss Duraf Cascarellian. Resurrected and transformed by Agonistes, Lucidique killed Cascarellian and his sons and soon became lover to the Scythe-Meister. Sometime later, she and Kreiger were confronted by Talisac's Venal Anatomica. The creature brutally killed Kreiger but Lucidique managed to blind him.
  • Mongroid -
  • The Scythe-Meister - An assassin working under Don Cascarellian with an affinity for scythes, Zarles Kreiger grew up the son of a prostitute on the streets of Primordium. He was ordered to kill a troublesome Senator and was caught in the act by the man's daughter, Lucidique, who led him to Agonistes. Remade as the Scythe-Meister, Zarles slaughtered Primordium's emperor, Perfetto XI, and later became lovers with a similarly-transformed Lucidique. Zarles would ultimately meet his violent fate at the hands of Venal Anatomica while defending Lucidique from the creature's rampage.
  • Talisac -
  • Venal Anatomica - A Frankenstein-esque creature assembled and given life by Doctor Talisac on commission from Primordium's three Generals - Montefalco, Urbano and Bogoto - in hopes of creating a super soldier to defeat the Scythe-Meister following the latter's assassination of Emperor Perfetto XI.

Tortured Souls 2[edit]

  • Szaltax - A six-limbed creature featuring grasping mechanical prosthetics.
  • Zain - He is strapped onto a pole and features several mechanical appendages.
  • Suffering Bob - A mutation involving the combination of several humans into one grotesque creature.
  • Feverish - A grotesquely large creature on a slab giving birth to worms.
  • Moribundi - He is in the unfortunate position of being sacrificed at the altar of science and technology.
  • Camille Noire - A winged angelic creature whose cranium had a run-in with a circular saw.
