Lori's Nightmare Children and Nightmare Roster
Roles, shop costs, and which kit actually belongs in your lobby.
This hub is the roster map for Lori’s Nightmare on Roblox. One player is the Nightmare. The rest are Children, up to a seven-player server. Children restore CRT televisions, open an escape, and try not to donate 10 seconds per unsaved death. The Nightmare hunts, interrupts TVs, and spends Unleash when a group is actually working. The experience is still tagged alpha by acorn dreams. Kits, prices, and cooldowns can move; when they do, patch notes beat memory.
Open the Children roster for every survivor kit from free Lori to Azazil. Open the Nightmare roster for default Nightmare, Carnivore, Phantom, Tarantula, Bot Roytt, and Ghost. Rankings live in a different category: the Children tier list and the Nightmare tier list. If you are brand new, the beginner guide plus how to play Children will save you more coins than a random shop click.
Survivalist, Support, Sentinel
Children kits cluster into three jobs. Overlap exists. The label is how you should spend the cooldown, not a locked class screen.
Sentinel exists to make the Nightmare answer you. Spy locates the monster. Pincat sends a decoy the wrong way. Maggi slows a hallway. Pigi plants a stun trap. Hiro swings a hard stun. If nobody in the lobby is a Sentinel, Phantom sabotages TVs for free and Tarantula webs the last door. Buy a Sentinel before you buy a grappling hook.
Support exists to keep the clock honest. Gus revives faster. TVE finds an unfinished TV. Coby repairs faster. Acorn speeds nearby allies. Daisy shields a mistake. Ricci pulls a random downed body. Support without a Sentinel still dies on the CRT. Support with a Sentinel is how eight minutes become an escape.
Survivalist exists to stay a body. Lori bursts speed. Soni is a passive mover. Peri and Dani go invis. Bani double jumps. Flynn grapples. Wiz teleports home. Luna ignores doors. Nobita crawls faster. Mori morphs. Maou self-revives. Bacon tracks friends. Survivalist kits are how you stop feeding. They do not replace a Spy ping or a Pigi trap.
Azazil is none of the three until you already own a 1,000,000-coin flex. Armageddon is a stun if it is on the account. It is not a role you queue for.
Nightmare kits do not use those three labels. They use Unleash plus a special: Mind Trap, Eat Meat, Sabotage TV, or Spider Web. Read that language on the Nightmare roster, then rank it on the Nightmare tier list.
Shop reality
Coins come from finishing TVs, floor pickups, dailies, and whatever the coin farm tool currently describes. There are no live promo codes as of September 2026. Do not sit in the lobby waiting for a coupon; the codes hub is empty until an event says otherwise. Community talk sometimes prices a full Nightmare shop around 9,000 coins — a ballpark, not a receipt.
Children prices span 0 (Lori) to 1,000,000 (Azazil). The important band is 50 to 2,250: Spy, Gus, TVE, Pincat, Maggi, Pigi, Hiro. Nightmare prices are free, 1,350, 2,500, and 5,000. Buy a job, not a skin.
Account XP is not a kit
Matches drop about 10 to 30 XP. Coins still buy abilities. The curve is steep — level 10 is 4,501 XP, level 18 is 50,001 — and community notes say even high-win accounts do not sit at max. Levels do not appear to grant extra kits. Do not Void-idle for levels. Spend coins on Spy. Kit text stays on the Children roster. Daily coin routing is on daily quests.

Round rules that change the roster
Eight minutes on the clock. Plus 15 seconds per restored TV. Minus 10 seconds on an unsaved death. Escape after the TVs. Maps rotate Hotel, School, Daycare, Hospital, and Orphanage — details on the maps guide. Controls are WASD, Ctrl prone, E hide, Q extra; the controls guide is the bind page. All Nightmare specials can interrupt TVs, which is why the TV restore guide belongs next to this hub. If the killer leaves, Bot Roytt appears. After a Child death, a Ghost lingers about 30 seconds.
How to use the two roster pages
Need a name, a cooldown, or a quote? Roster pages. Need a buy order? Tier List hub. Need a live match plan as a survivor? How to play Children. Need a patrol plan as the hunter? How to play Nightmare. Scripts and executors are a different conversation on the scripts hub and PC script pages — they are not part of a kit.
If you only bookmark two URLs from this hub, bookmark the Children roster and the Nightmare roster. They interlink on purpose: you should know what the other side paid for before you lock in.
