MODS

MOD RAMOURZIROLE: Head Mod, Merch, Shipping
ABOUT: Always been a Crocodile girly. But I’m soft to the idea of BW as a found family too. I love them all so dearly.

MOD ANNAROLE: Head Mod, Art Mod
ABOUT: The fact that I started a BW server back in 2021 and never did anything with it until now says a lot about me. My feelings for Baroque Works? They're innocent, Your Honor. Why? Because I love them.

MOD BROOKI
ROLE: Finance Mod
ABOUT: The biggest Sir Crocodile lover (real) and just a lil silly - my favourite thing about Baroque Works is that despite Crocodile coming off as a super serious intimidating villain, his crew is the most unserious bunch of people ever and I love them lmao

MOD ALEXROLE: Writing Mod
ABOUT: Perpetually unserious. I love picturing Croc thinking "I'm surrounded by idiots" and conveniently forgetting that he hand-picked said idiots. Daz is his biggest hype man and you can't change my mind.

MOD DEKKROLE: Art Mod
ABOUT: I'm the resident funny guy, I'm very chill. I think Baroque Works is an MLM pyramid scheme like Avon, but instead of selling beauty items they sell you mayhem.

MOD KAYROLE: Social Media Mod
ABOUT: I turn into a bi disaster every time I think about how hot the Baroque Works members are (can you blame me?). I love how fashionable they all are!

MOD RORYROLE: Formatting Mod
ABOUT: As a villain enjoyer, I absolutely adore them and how unserious they all are vs Crocodile. Bon Clay is my MVP forever ❤️
